Scare Me suffers from major pacing issues, as it's too in love with its own words. Review
These are hardly original notions, and no amount of stylistic strokes can disguise the fact that Eternal Beauty has little to add to the cinematic conversation around mental illness. Review
The Antenna broadcasts its own crude message of how we should be wary of media, but it does so through a stultifyingly dull narrative that doesn't really hold up to any scrutiny... Review
The filmmaking is so intimate in parts that it makes us feel uncomfortable, as though we're intruding on someone's private affairs... Review
For all its trippiness and integration of temporal physics, The Dead Ones ultimately boils down to killing off its young cast one by one. Review
Danzig does at least attempt to give his movie the look of a comic book with primary coloured lighting, costumes and production design, but he displays little aptitude for directing, and certainly not for pacing. Review
Khaou takes a quiet and studied approach to filming this outwardly simple but thematically complicated story. Review
If I were cruel, I might describe The Man in the Hat as inconsequential. It does play like an easy listening version of a Terrence Malick movie, and it might be accused of being a free promo for the French tourist board. Review
The explanation also makes us question some of the events depicted earlier, such as why Malik and Kayla were being intimidated if the villains needed them to stick around. Review
The Devil All the Time has the journeyman look of prestige TV, with impatient editing that's always desperate to move on to the next chapter or awkwardly return to an earlier important detail. Review
The term 'elevated horror' is often bandied about by snobs who feel the need to justify their enjoyment of a horror movie, but the truth is horror is the most elevated, most cinematic genre of them all. Durkin gets this. Review
Bellamacina is herself a poet, and composed the many verses rendered in voiceover throughout the film, so I guess we're meant to believe Celeste is gifted, but it all just sounded like word salad to my ignorant ears. Review
Mulan is a visually vivid but thematically tedious retelling of the Chinese legend. Review
A British based Italian transplant, Biancheri combines both nation's cinematic legacies to give us a beautifully acted piece of social realist drama that's also very easy on the eye. Review
With Blinders, Savage takes a well-worn stalker storyline, adds some contemporary fears, gives us a three-dimensional protagonist and weaves a solid thriller of the sort we just don't see all that often anymore. Review
The New Mutants is the most boring kind of superhero movie, one where nobody wants to be a superhero and everyone spends the film moaning about the burden of their powers. Review
The documentary broaches various subjects - such as how the filmmakers initially fell in love with the genre, how it provides great roles for women etc - but it moves so quickly between each topic that nothing gets covered with any satisfying substance. Review
Nightmare Radio is a typical horror anthology, populated by some good, bad and ugly shorts. Review
But if you're willing to indulge Kaufman, his film will get under your skin. Review
Like the vacuous models that populate its story, Crystal Eyes looks fantastic but there's not a lot going on beneath its pretty exterior. Review
Coming in under 85 minutes with relentless pacing and a minimum of dialogue, Ravage doesn't reinvent the grindhouse wheel in the manner of Coralie Fargeat's Revenge, but it does give it a shiny new set of hubcaps. In... Review
She Dies Tomorrow seems like a novel idea, but it has its roots in films like Stanley Kramer's On the Beach and Don McKellar's Last Night, in which characters resign themselves to imminent destruction. The difference here is that while previous films have featured a very concrete threat, the vessel of death is left ambiguous here. Review
Dunne's performance is palpably real and relatable, and she even integrates her self-consciousness regarding a birthmark under her left eye into her character's low self-esteem. Review
