Call me crazy, but the simple act of watching a movie should never be this unpleasant.
Category: Festival Coverage
“Flee”
A cathartic exercise of a man confronting his painful past so he can move ahead to a brighter future.
“Cusp”
This isn’t a great documentary, but it reveals an intimate portrait of modern-day adolescence.
“She Dies Tomorrow”
Comes across like a glorified student film rather than a contemplative exercise in existential anxiety.
“Anything for Jackson”
A horror film that operates in the purest sense of the scare. Not cheap jump scares, but frights with real substance behind them.
“The Forty-Year-Old-Version”
There’s organic humor that provides laughs, but this film sometimes feels more like homework than enjoyable entertainment.
