Transformers One



The movie is familiar, narratively flat, and lacking in imagination.


Never Let Go



The filmmakers undermine the psychological nature of this story for something else entirely.


His Three Daughters



Writer/director Azazel Jacobs' film is an exceptional study of these characters and their frayed relationships.


The Substance



Fargeat makes the point clear with such style, passion, and control over the material's grisly effects that it's tough to shake.


Wolfs



The star power may be considerable, but that does not automatically make for a satisfying movie. It definitely doesn't here.


A Different Man



This is a very good, if admittedly twisted, gag, to be sure, but in the hands of writer/director Aaron Schimberg, it's also a pointed and thoughtful one.


In the Summers



The whole film, in its quiet and observant way, is a tragedy.


A Mistake



It turns a messy drama of dubious characters, motives, and principles into a simplistic melodrama.


Omni Loop



This becomes quite the effective sleight-of-hand trick in terms of purpose and tone by the end.


And Mrs



The screenplay is too busy coming up with random gags to actually move us.


The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry



Just because a tale rambles doesn't mean it has to be aimless, but the manipulative mysteries and stretched-thin ideas make this one feel that way.
