Ammonite (2021) – Movie Review
Francis Lee’s followup to God’s Own Country is a moody and atmospheric -if oddly cold and passionless- period love story.

I was all in for Night in Paradise’s moody and forlorn tale of desperate people lashing against fate, and so much of it hits that note just right, but it stumbles just upon the finish line.
Godzilla vs. Kong (2021) – Movie Review
Well, it’s right there in the title.
Your Name Engraved Herein (2020) – Movie Rev
Part coming of age, part teenage romance, part period piece, part queer study, Your Name Engraved Herein excels in its atmosphere and its weaving of the personal and the political.
Double World (2020) – Movie Review
Double World starts out rough, but ends up being an inoffensive fantasy blockbuster with a high production value.
Nomadland (2021) – Movie Review
A movie full of love and wonder, an appeal to kindness as a response to heartache, masterful work by Chloe Zhao and Frances McDormand.
