Destroyer is rough around the edges, but Nicole Kidman’s anguished performance is truly astounding.

Long Day's Journey Into Night

Long Day’s Journey Into Night (2019) – Movie Review

Stunningly, achingly, rigidly, endlessly, irredeemably boring.

Andre Holland in High Flying Bird

High Flying Bird (2019) – Movie Review

Steven Soderbergh’s second iPhone film is a nimble, dynamic con story, even if the topic of NBA negotiations can be obscure at times.

Steve Carell and Timothee Chalamet in Beautiful Boy

Beautiful Boy (2018) – Movie Review

We have seen many films about addiction, but Beautiful Boy is really a film about fatherhood, about that desperate sensation of wanting to help a loved one and not knowing how.

Renee Russo and Jake Gyllenhaal in Velvet Buzzsaw

Velvet Buzzsaw (2019) – Movie Review

Tim Blake Nelson in The Ballad of Buster Scruggs

The Ballad of Buster Scruggs (2018) – Movie Review

It’s difficult to process such disparate experiences into one cohesive opinion or recommendation, but even at their worst the Coens are expert filmmakers.
