Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere (2025) 61% 8/10 EDIT “While it falls short of the brilliance of the “Nebraska” album itself, Cooper’s against-the-grain approach offers a refreshing antidote to the formulaic music biopic, delivering a bleak yet moving exploration of an artist in crisis.” – Next Best Picture Aug 30, 2025 Full Review Up in the Air (2009) 90% 8/10 EDIT “It’s less flashy than Clooney’s work in “The Descendants” two years later, but it’s every bit as heartbreaking.” – Next Best Picture Aug 1, 2025 Full Review The Accidental Getaway Driver (2023) 84% 7/10 EDIT “It could have been an indie masterpiece if it had worked out its tension and pacing issues. As it is, it is still a moving meditation on masculinity, the immigrant experience, and loneliness in modern American life.” – Next Best Picture Feb 28, 2025 Full Review Smile 2 (2024) 86% 6/10 EDIT “Overall, “Smile 2” is a fun enough time at the theater this spooky season. If you’re looking for jump scares and lots of gore, you will find them aplenty. It’s just a shame the delivery mechanism all feels so familiar.” – Next Best Picture Oct 16, 2024 Full Review Don't Let's Go to the Dogs Tonight (2024) 91% 6/10 EDIT ““Don’t Let’s Go to the Dogs Tonight” is far from a masterpiece, but it suggests that Davidtz has undoubted strengths as a filmmaker. The film’s ability to evoke such powerful emotions is sure to leave the audience deeply moved.” – Next Best Picture Sep 6, 2024 Full Review Saturday Night (2024) 77% 7/10 EDIT “Sometimes, it feels like a cop-out to say a movie is just “fun” and nothing more, but that is precisely the case here. "Saturday Night" a funny and well-acted piece of entertainment, best enjoyed on a Saturday night.” – Next Best Picture Sep 1, 2024 Full Review Better Man (2024) 89% 5/10 EDIT ““Better Man” is so focused on the spectacle and on showcasing the unsavory parts of Williams’ life that it doesn’t really demonstrate to an audience why his music was so beloved.” – Next Best Picture Aug 31, 2024 Full Review Coup! (2023) 81% 6/10 EDIT “Between the strength of its two leads, a handsome production, and enough comedic moments that land, “Coup!” manages to be entertaining enough to keep the audience engaged, even if it fails to distinguish itself from the other “eat the rich” movies” – Next Best Picture Aug 2, 2024 Full Review Oddity (2024) 96% 6/10 EDIT “Despite some storytelling and performance qualms, “Oddity” is genuinely scary in ways many recent horror films have not been.” – Next Best Picture Jul 22, 2024 Full Review Poolman (2023) 24% 2/10 EDIT “Save yourself the time and go rewatch "Chinatown," "The Big Lebowski," or "Inherent Vice" instead.” – Next Best Picture May 9, 2024 Full Review Asphalt City (2023) 46% 5/10 EDIT “Probably the most glaring area where the film truly falls short of being this generation's "Bringing Out The Dead" is the writing. It's full of cliches and the less said about some of Michael Pitt's dialogue, the better” – Next Best Picture Apr 2, 2024 Full Review 32 Sounds (2022) 96% 6/10 EDIT “There are far more riveting and better-made documentaries this year to be seen, but there are few more interesting ones than this to listen to. ” – Next Best Picture Jan 29, 2024 Full Review The Family Plan (2023) 29% 5/10 EDIT “"The Family Plan" is, of course, a comedy, not a message movie. But there is something uncomfortable about the casual, almost gleeful way the film approaches violence, especially when it feels somewhat reactionary across the board.” – Next Best Picture Dec 16, 2023 Full Review The Creator (2023) 67% 6/10 EDIT “While there is plenty to admire in "The Creator," it ultimately doesn't come together as a whole on a character or narrative level to be considered a new flat-out masterpiece many were hoping for.” – Next Best Picture Sep 26, 2023 Full Review Landscape with Invisible Hand (2023) 72% 5/10 EDIT ““Landscape with Invisible Hand” continues Finley’s love affair with dark, even tragic comedy. It leans into the exploration of issues of class and capitalism even more. But where it falters is managing to tell a compelling story.” – Next Best Picture Aug 18, 2023 Full Review Dreamin' Wild (2022) 90% 5/10 EDIT “Unlike the real-life music at the film’s center, this isn’t something people will discuss and appreciate decades from now.” – Next Best Picture Aug 4, 2023 Full Review Biosphere (2022) 80% 7/10 EDIT “Mel Eslyn’s directorial debut is “Black Mirror” by way of mumblecore. It may run too long and bite off more than it can chew, but it is undeniably inventive and anchored by two incredibly compelling lead performances. ” – Next Best Picture Jul 7, 2023 Full Review Sisu (2022) 94% 6/10 EDIT “Anyone who wants to see an old guy obliterating Nazis will get an old guy slaying Nazis…No more, no less, for better or worse.” – Next Best Picture Apr 28, 2023 Full Review Somewhere in Queens (2022) 92% 6/10 EDIT “Ray Romano’s feature directorial debut, “Somewhere in Queens,” is firmly in his comfort zone. For those who loved the comedic actor’s brand of “grounded absurdity” from “Everybody Loves Raymond,” you’ll be treated to more of the same, just longer.” – Next Best Picture Apr 21, 2023 Full Review Air (2023) 93% 7/10 EDIT “It’s a simple, competently told, feel-good drama that will likely appeal to your dad, and there’s nothing wrong with that.” – Next Best Picture Mar 22, 2023 Full Review Bad Behaviour (2023) 47% 3/10 EDIT “Messy films can be interesting, even delightful, at times. But messy, tedious, and boring films like “Bad Behavior” are truly and utterly insufferable.” – Next Best Picture Feb 6, 2023 Full Review Radical (2023) 96% 6/10 EDIT “The true story is uplifting, heartwarming, reasonably funny throughout, and goes down easy. You just probably won’t remember it a month later.” – Next Best Picture Feb 3, 2023 Full Review In My Mother's Skin (2023) 86% 5/10 EDIT “This is a tortuously slow film. And on some level, maybe that works, replicating the interminable waiting the characters must feel. But it doesn't make for an engaging watch.” – Next Best Picture Feb 2, 2023 Full Review Magazine Dreams (2023) 80% 6/10 EDIT “It is the kind of bold, extreme performance that made actors like Daniel Day-Lewis and Robert De Niro into legends, which is where Jonathan Majors has officially ascended with this towering piece of work.” – Next Best Picture Feb 1, 2023 Full Review 2nd Chance (2022) 91% 7/10 EDIT “Overall, “2nd Chance” is a riveting story about a confusing, disturbing, and harmful man with so much to say about both himself and America’s sins and descent into militarism as a whole. ” – Next Best Picture Dec 2, 2022 Full Review
