This 3-hour garish, obnoxious, overstuffed spectacle is two parts catastrophe to one part brilliance, which makes for an extremely divisive project.
“The Son”
The film aims for realism in its depiction of a mental health crisis that’s tearing a family apart, but Zeller’s style leans too heavily on in-your-face aggressiveness and melodrama.
“Women Talking”
A talky film with difficult subject matter, dialogue, and situations, but it’s also a story that is hopeful and empowering.
“X”
A bloody, gory homage to 70s horror flicks that features well-written characters, dry humor, and offers a unique spin on the genre.
“Puss in Boots: The Last Wish”
A visually dazzling swashbuckling adventure with heart, this animated film has just as much substance as it does style.
“RRR”
This international blockbuster has everything: thrilling action sequences, adrenaline-charged stunts, a rousing story, and euphoric Bollywood dance scenes that are nothing short of show-stopping.
