Boundary-pushing cinema that is far from the thoughtful exploration of female sexual agency that it clearly longs to be.
“Shell”
Entertaining but not thought-provoking, and never fully commits to the depth its premise seems to promise.
“Boy Kills World”
A total assault on the senses in the form of a weird, violent thrill ride that’s cool in bloody bursts but ultimately feels empty.
“A Complete Unknown”
Showcases the enigmatic, difficult, and very self-absorbed figure who was about to change the folk music world for the better.
“Challengers”
A deliciously complicated film about love, rivalry, and the toll that fierce competition can take on relationships.
“Juror #2”
Lacking substance and failing to nail the follow-through, this legal drama is one big missed opportunity.
