A HOUSE OF DYNAMITE

“The sight of military personnel responding to an actual crisis rather than being wasted on political theater strikes a nostalgic chord, and the sense that we’re watching a well-organized, competent government respond to an existential threat seems like it belongs to a different political era.” – Killian Melloy, Cinesaurus Rex

RUNNING FOR THE MOUNTAINS

“Mining is a deeply traditional occupation in West Virginia, but it’s only become more environmentally destructive even as forms of energy production such as wind and solar have become more effective alternatives.” – Killian Melloy, Cinesaurus Rex

LAST DAYS

“Where does devotion cross into delusion? Where does a desire for friendship darken into forcing oneself onto others? The movie asks these questions, along with other, equally disturbing ones.” – Killian Melloy, Cinesaurus Rex

BLUE MOON

“Some of the best scenes in the movie are when Hawke/Hart shuts up and just reacts physically to what’s being said to him or about him. They’re so good that you even forget about the combover.” – John Black, Cinekong
