White River 2023
"White River is an unrestrained and unfiltered penetration into the depressive social isolation and unambiguously apathetic spirit that pervaded the worst of the Covid years, a time prolonged in the country it originated in thanks to the 'Zero-COVID' policy." ✏️ Joshua Polanski

High and Low 1963
"It seems strange to call an acclaimed film by one cinema history’s most revered filmmakers 'underdiscussed,' but given the fact that Kurosawa is most associated with the samurai film, those have sometimes overshadowed his other work." ✏️Fred Barrett

The Bubble 2022
"The issue is not that these performers aren’t talented — it’s that Apatow has utterly failed to provide them with any actual material or character to enact. Instead, he’s reverted to his usual Line-o-Rama improv shtick, which has left him with an incredible clutch of scenes in which nothing happens and no narrative is advanced. It’s just a collection of riffs, very few of which merit more than twenty or thirty seconds, much less a movie of over two hours. It’s an uninspired SNL sketch stretched out to feature length; barely a movie." ✏️ Matt Lynch

Persuasion 2022
"Throwing every modern gimmick at the wall to see what sticks, Cracknell’s Persuasion is a jumble of intentionally anachronistic dialogue, fourth-wall breaking affects, and attempts at cynical wit that seems to see its own source material as a problem to be solved rather than an adaptation to be lovingly and imaginatively massaged.
