★★★1/2 Stellar performances and Aster's fearless direction pull you into this powder keg of a town, but by juggling too many sensitive topics, the films feels as subtle as a knife to the head.
Sorry, Baby (2025)
★★★★ Writer-Director Eva Victor thoughtfully explores a challenging subject in this black comedy that cleverly balances sombre post-traumatic drama with quirky indie satire
Materialists (2025)
★★★★ Celine Song continues to create relatable and emotionally intelligent characters in this surprisingly humorous sophomore feature, which cleverly examines the societal norms surrounding dating and relationships.
Warfare (2025)
★★★★ Co-directed by Alex Garland and war veteran Ray Mendoza, "Warfare" tells the story of the latter's real life experiences in Iraq by disturbingly recreating the true horrors of modern day combat.
Sing Sing (2024)
★★★★ It may not have had the emotional impact I was expecting but this heart-warming true story is an undeniably inspirational exploration of art and redemption
