Not a Word serves as a poignant reminder of how easily we can lose touch with our children if we fail to pay attention to their unspoken words. Review

The Critic is an unsettling and nerve-wracking film to watch. Review

The screenplay is nothing short of exquisite, granting its characters the space to evolve and deepen. Review

Passages takes a subtle approach to address infidelity, delving into it in a profoundly poignant manner. Review

Archival footage, nail-biting storytelling, and an authentic approach to what shattered the world is astounding. Review

Remarkable stories do happen every day – but the one you will learn in Unsyncable is on a whole different level. Review

It’s a bittersweet story of an old-housing system that should be renewed with a new look. Review

Praying for Armageddon does not necessarily propagate against religion, but explains why it can be extremely dangerous if radical thoughts fall into the hand of individuals that hold power. Review

The stellar cast, lead by Keira Knightley, Carrie Coon, Alessandro Nivola and Chris Cooper, Boston Strangler is an excellent thriller that is more dynamic than any action movie. Review

While the film itself does not aim to become an epic storyteller, it succeeds in turning it into a nice satire of power balance, internal fights, strange political affairs, and how one person can change the course of history. Overall, it`s an absurd adaptation but very memorable one – in a good way. Review

It’s simple, has less bloodshed if equal to none. It’s a character-centric story that allows us to connect with Beth and follow her steps, whatever it might take. Review

The height of action cinema of the 21st century that must reign and will reign for generation to come. Review

So you can forgive Styles for his bad acting skills if you just want to enjoy the story. But if you are looking much more than that from him, better skip it and concentrate on other actors’ work, because they deserve the film to be seen just for them. Review

Knock at the Cabin shows that the psychological horror thriller genre is well alive and can continue to thrive if more ideas like this are explored. Review

Director Anthony Chen does an amazing job telling perhaps the most ordinary Immigrant story with the background of a character that will leave your heart pounding. Review

You Hurt My Feelings is an average film with a concept that would not make bigger noise if not for Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Tobias Menzies. Review

The film, I should warn you, is filled with graphic sex scenes that really do not help in character development. The idea itself is excellent – no doubt about that. Execution is perfect. Undoubtedly. The rest of the scenes could be easily cut out and left in the dark. Review

I grant, maybe it’s just me who did not understand it, and I always try to give the filmmakers the benefit of the doubt. Unfortunately, not in this case. Review
