‘The Rescue’ Review
The multinational effort to rescue a Thai youth soccer team from a slowly flooding cave is recounted in astounding detail but with an overcautious hand.
‘No Time To Die’ Review
Finally arriving in theaters after pandemic delays, this long-awaited Bond 007 adventure is sometimes stunning but stuffed with ideas which can't find harmony.
‘Venom: Let There Be Carnage’ Review
An electric pace and unabashedly sentimental core help this symbiote-sprinkled franchise inch closer to its truest, fullest self.
‘Dear Evan Hansen’ Review
Misguided from the jump, this misfire from the director of "The Perks of Being a Wallflower" burdens the audience with attempting to justify its icky construction.
‘The Card Counter’ Review
Schrader's latest study of a volatile and potentially eruptive personality is potent in its bleakness but doesn't completely have a handle on its own stakes.
‘Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings’ Review
Tony Leung is the not-so-secret weapon to the MCU's first origin story since "Captain Marvel," an overlong but exciting and thematically intriguing entry.
‘We Need to Do Something’ Review
Sean King O'Grady's feature debut is a nasty bit of limited-perspective horror dulled by dramatic slightness during a maybe-apocalypse.
‘Ailey’ Review
As much an inquiry into the legacy of Alvin Ailey as a celebration of his art, Neon's new documentary is often as mesmerizing and graceful as its subject.
‘Annette’ Review
The French filmmaker's unpredictable style meshes with the idiosyncratic musical flair of Sparks to create something chaotic, self-referential and moving.
‘CODA’ Review
After triumphing at Sundance earlier this year, Siân Heder's winning sophomore feature is on its way to wringing tears out of the eyes of Apple TV+ subscribers.
‘Days’ Review
Taiwanese filmmaker Tsai Ming-liang's new movie won't entice everyone with its slow and static documentary-like observations. But there's a poetry to its simplicity.
‘The Green Knight’ Review
The director of "A Ghost Story" returns with another deliberately constructed meditation on what it takes to endure, starring a never-been-better Dev Patel.
‘Nine Days’ Review
Edson Oda's ambitious feature debut is stuffed with great performances and aesthetic choices, but the catharsis it seeks to provide is more tremor than shockwave.
‘Jungle Cruise’ Review
The deliriously derivative new based-on-a-Disneyland-ride blockbuster is mostly just a reminder of how inventive these big-screen adventures used to be.
‘Old’ Review
The twisty filmmaker rebounds from the mismanaged "Glass" to deliver a beachside allegory as funny and tense as it is poignant.
‘Settlers’ Review
Wyatt Rockefeller's meditative Mars-set drama works best when it keeps its scope small, its focus tight.
‘Roadrunner: A Film About Anthony Bourdain’ Review
Like its subject, Morgan Neville's new documentary reveals itself to be a bit of a contradiction.
‘Pig’ Review
Michael Sarnoski's feature debut is defiant in its moods and captivating in its sadness as Nicolas Cage delivers an exemplary performance.
‘Black Widow’ Review
Less an expansive Marvel entry than a deeper one, "Black Widow" stays relatively low to Earth before indulging bombastic tendencies in its third act.
