“Beyond Utopia”
An emotional powerhouse of a documentary that had me on the edge of my seat, holding my breath, and choking back tears.
“The Promised Land”
A brutal, bloody, and complex story of savagery and ambition, this epic Danish historical drama is styled like an old fashioned American Western.
“The Critic”
The film is slowed down by a darker, more lurid focus to its storytelling rather than one with any sort of sophisticated narrative or character development.
“Billion Dollar Babies: The True Story of the Cabbage Patch Kids”
A look at how masterful merchandising, American capitalism, and a homegrown idea came together in one perfect pop culture storm.
“100 Yards”
A dull and sorely boring martial arts movie with a lackluster story and disappointing lack of adventure.
