Predictable and simplistic, yet the film deserves credit for tackling grief and emotional complexity in a format digestible for families and children.

“Oh, Canada”
The film’s cold tone is more cerebral than emotional, and its slow, talky pace feels brutally suffocating.
“The Life of Chuck”
A deeply moving film about the fleeting nature of life and the importance of embracing every moment.
“Gonzo Girl”
A kaleidoscopic descent into the drug-soaked world of gonzo journalism, nostalgia, and toxic masculinity.
“On Swift Horses”
A beautifully crafted world inhabited by a talented cast, but falls short of delivering anything particularly meaningful or memorable.
“The Friend”
Despite a meaningful story about the enduring power of companionship and the pain of loss, the film just can’t get a firm grasp on its desired sentiment.
