Jodie Turner-Smith and Daniel Kaluuya in Queen & Slim

Queen & Slim (2020) – Movie Review

Queen & Slim is a moody film with superb photography, even if sometimes it is weighed down by its own style.

Michael B. Jordan and Jamie Foxx in Just Mercy

Just Mercy (2020) – Movie Review

Sometimes Just Mercy gets lost in the abstract; it is at its strongest when it is angry.

Alison Brie in Horse Girl

Horse Girl (2020) – Movie Review

Horse Girl starts out well enough, as a seemingly thoughtful character study, but quickly gets lost in sophomoric conspiracy theories.

Adam Sandler in Uncut Gems

Renée Zellweger in Judy

Judy (2020) – Movie Review

Judy is a mostly by-the-numbers biopic, propelled by a star performance, with not much to say.

Kelvin Harrison, Jr. and Sterling K. Brown in Waves

Waves (2020) – Movie Review

Waves is almost two movies in one. The first is dynamic, energetic, and stressful; the second is slow, melancholy, and contemplative. Both are full of life and emotion.

Les Traducteurs (2020) – Movie Review

This translator was pleasantly surprised that Les Traducteurs, in addition to being an expertly crafted thriller, is faithful to our profession.

Thomasin McKenzie, Roman Griffin Davis and Taika Waititi in Jojo Rabbit

Jojo Rabbit (2020) – Movie Review

Jojo Rabbit is good fun, and worth a watch, with a few well-placed gags that will stay with me, even if it does not achieve its potential as satire.

Kristen Stewart in Underwater

Underwater (2020) – Movie Review

Underwater is a lean, relentless horror-thriller that barges into the screen, does its job and then barges right out again.

Matej Zemljic in Consequences

Consequences (Posledice) (2018) – Movie Review

Consequences is a rough experience in a ruthless environment, but its regard is clear-eyed and energetic. It is a tale of survival in a violent, hypermasculine world.
