Fatman (2020)
The assassin's name is Jonathan Miller, and he's played by the great Walton Goggins, who is as always a treat to watch.

The Witches (2020)
Why has Hathaway been allowed to affect a braying Zsa-Zsa-Lugosi Hungarian accent that might have been designed to trigger tension headaches in anyone exposed to it?

The Church of the SubGenius was not, in fact, founded by a pipe-smoking salesman from the 1950s. You may have heard that, but you've been misinformed.

Love and Monsters (2020)
You don't have to be a 12-year-old to appreciate the craft with which this picture is made. But it maybe wouldn't hurt to have a 12-year-old standing by.

Books of Blood (2020)

All the Way (2016)
A pockmarked hodgepodge of a narrative that fails to provide the context that made Johnson's civil-rights efforts so stunning.

Possessor: Uncut (2020)
A world-class body horror movie that has no idea when enough is enough, and no interest in finding out.

No Escape (Follow Me) (2020)
It has the hunched and gasping air of an old-school torture-porn movie. But there's no torture! Or rather, there is torture, but you mostly don't see it. It's torture lite.

The Nest (2020)
Jude Law gives one of the strongest performances of his career, playing a man whose life has evolved into a shaky edifice of lies, too many of which he has come to believe himself.

Looking back on the cinematic sexy-wars of the last century from the promised land of total pornography we inhabit today must be a little puzzling for young cinephiles.

Centigrade (2020)
IFC Midnight's immersion in survivalist tedium.

The Binge (2020)
Isn't that bad, but certainly isn't that good, either.

Class Action Park (2020)
The park offered the liberation of extreme, largely unchaperoned thrills to a generation of bored latchkey kids. Unfortunately, some of them left the place in body bags.

The Sleepover (2020)
The real strength of The Sleepover is the kids. Kevin and Clancy, played by Disney Channel regulars Maxwell Simkins and Sadie Stanley, are hilariously authentic.

Jazz on a Summer's Day (2020)

The Enforcer (1976)
The screenplay by Stirling Silliphant and Dean Riesner provides occasional and much-needed touches of humor, while James Fargo's direction is crisp and forceful.

The Go-Go's (2020)
Let us now praise the Go-Go's, glittering jewels of the New Wave moment.

The Old Guard (2020)
Like Atomic Blonde, this film is adapted from a graphic novel. Also like Atomic Blonde, the film version doesn't quite work.

Archive (2020)
The movie's elegant execution makes the old mysteries feel fresh again.

The Outpost (2020)
An instant classic. A shame it can't be shown on a big screen at the moment, but it can still reach out and excite you on a smaller one.

Mr. Jones (2020)
Director Holland tells this story in masterful style... Chalupa's script is effective -- she frames the issues efficiently and her characters are compelling -- but less accurate.
Posted Jun 29, 2020

You Should Have Left (2020)
Given the movie's source-a twisty horror novella by Daniel Kehlmann-it could have been more than just a riff on The Shining.
Posted Jun 19, 2020

Babyteeth (2020)
A cancer-kid movie that rises high above its weepy tradition.
Posted Jun 19, 2020

The Vast of Night (2020)

Shirley (2020)
The picture isn't without interest, but it's artsy and jumbled, and it feels interminable.

The Trip to Greece (2020)
Not a moment too soon, maybe a bit too late...

The Wretched (2020)
I've seen deer-gutting videos that made more sense.

Beastie Boys Story (2020)
A chronicle of how the Beasties' party-monster stage act took over their lives and how they eventually managed to outgrow it.

Big Time Adolescence (2020)
The picture won't change the world, but it could change an otherwise joyless day for the better.
Posted Mar 20, 2020

The Hunt (2020)
Sometimes funny, but no way as witty as it needed to be. The most enjoyable thing about the movie is the wild blood-and-gutsy violence, quite a bit of which is pretty excellent.

The Invisible Man (2020)
A new Invisible Man now moves among us, and he's much, much scarier.

Emma. (2020)
35
Buffaloed (2020)
The picture crackles along on the trademark energy of its star, Zoey Deutch, and you keep wanting it to work even after it starts letting you down.
Posted Feb 14, 2020
36
The Assistant (2020)
Deals with the subject of sexual harassment in whispers and sighs, and the result is chilling.

The Rhythm Section (2020)
Starts out strong, as you'd expect of a movie produced by the tenders of the James Bond franchise, but steadily loses interest on its way to a piddling conclusion.

Color Out of Space (2020)
The family seems like a normal bunch-or as normal as any bunch might be with Nic Cage at its helm.

Underwater (2020)
The movie is an unabashed embrace of a much better film, but it's not too bad itself.

Little Women (2019)

Cats (2019)
I so wanted to slam this movie, but then...

Bombshell (2019)
Might have been a better movie if it were a full-on Megyn Kelly biopic-with her ambiguous relationship to Ailes, she's a richly complex character.
Posted Dec 13, 2019

Uncut Gems (2019)
A vivid simulation of what it might be like to live inside a pinball machine, giving Adam Sandler his showiest role, which he embraces obvious appreciation.

Marriage Story (2019)
Driver and Johansson have likely never been better and are sometimes electrifying.

Knives Out (2019)
Despite the story's many incidental pleasures, it never really takes off.

He knew that children grapple with some of the same issues adults do-death, sorrow, insecurity-but are less prepared to deal with them. That was where Mister Rogers came in.

It's not a terrible movie, just not a terribly good one.

By the end I felt that my heart was ready to burst from my chest and leap to its death down on the floor.
