NOUVELLE VAGUE
“Godard is a vision of artistic ambition and seemingly unfocused intensity, as insubstantial as cigarette smoke and yet exerting a mammoth gravity on everything around him.” – Killian Melloy, Cinesaurus Rex
“If you’re steeped in French cinema watching the making of Breathless will feel like stepping into a time machine. If you’re not, it may be like watching the film with the subtitles turned off and not knowing the language.” – Daniel M. Kimmel, North Shore Movies
IN YOUR DREAMS
“In Your Dreams is a charming animated offering from Netflix that should delight youngsters while opening the door to discussing dreams and nightmares.” – Daniel M. Kimmel, North Shore Movies
“This Frankenstein cements del Toro’s reputation as one of the best contemporary filmmakers.” 
“To appreciate Don’t Trip requires making allowances for a low-budget movie with ragged edges.There are some moments where it might feel the movie is out of control, but if you can make it to the end, it’s worth the effort.” 
“The film lands some commentary on contemporary politics with all the finesse of a haymaker, but it’s not wrong to do so.” 
“The Panama setting is a selling point, but it’s the cast, fearless and committed, along with Hawkins’ direction that makes this indie shine.” 
“For people of my generation, Call Me By Your Name felt like a cinematic banner. For Gen Z, I Wish You All the Best might fill a similar niche.” 
“Predator Badlands is another fun and action-packed installment from Dan Trachtenberg!” 
“An intense performance by Colin Farrell drives Ballad Of A Small Player. Farrell lets us see both the false confidence Doyle attempts to exude and his increasing desperation as things go wrong.” 
“Anniversary is like last year’s film Civil War. It is a disturbing parable about the increasing polarization of our country and, like that earlier film, manages to do so without directly commenting on current events.” 
“
“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.” 
“
“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.”
“The movie could have been better with a different writer, Ansari’s schtick was not well suited for this story.” 
“If you have ever sought therapy or have ever worked in the field, this is worth your time.”
