Robert Pattinson in The Batman

The Batman (2022) – Movie Review

I would love to see a two-hour cut of this movie, but even as it stands, I am in awe of its aesthetics, its overarching mood, and Robert Pattinson and Zoe Kravitz’s magnetic screen presence.

Ariana DeBose in West Side Story

West Side Story (2021) – Movie Review

While it is, for better or worse, the same old story, West Side Story is a cinematic spectacle bursting with color and joy.

Will Smith in King Richard

King Richard (2022) – Movie Review

Despite a wholly uncritical, corporate PR tone, King Richard is an effective biopic.

Olivia Colman in The Lost Daughter

The Lost Daughter (2022) – Movie Review

The Lost Daughter, in its normalcy, feels as tense as a thriller because anything could happen, anytime. Watch it for the atmosphere, or the performances, or the story, but don’t let it pass you by.

Cate Blanchett and Bradley Cooper in Nightmare Alley

Nightmare Alley (2021) – Movie Review

Half gothic horror, half swanky noir, Nightmare Alley is a lot of cinema. It is written to fit together like clockwork, designed and shot to look like the best classics.

Jude Hill and Jamie Dornan in Belfast

Belfast (2021) – Movie Review

All the accolades will make you think there must be something about Belfast. I suggest you look elsewhere.

Aditya Modak in The Disciple

The Disciple (2021) – Movie Review

It was hard for me to engage with the specific in The Disciple, but the general is filled with universal emotions.

Denzel Washington in The Tragedy of Macbeth

The Tragedy of Macbeth (2022) – Movie Review

The Tragedy of Macbeth is so much my jam that if I didn’t know better I’d think it was made just for me. This is an endorsement as much as it is a warning, because it could very well be that everything that I like about this project is what puts you off.
