★ | A reductive and painfully stilted biopic that hits every cliche imaginable.
★★★★ | Terrifying and exciting in equal measure, Welcome to Derry is one of the scariest horror shows in years, and a fantastic expansion of Stephen King's masterful universe.
★★★★ | Smartly written, superbly acted, and handsomely produced, this adaptation of Mikael Niemi's book is a winner.
★★★ | Unfocused and unhurried, Are We Good? is an intimate but distant portrait of Marc Maron that is just charming enough to captivate.
★★ | Cartoonish to a fault, Sisu 2 is 90 minutes of Looney Tunes mayhem that overstays its welcome by a half hour.
★★★★★ | Superbly written and directed, Wake Up Dead Man is another rich feature from one of America's best modern filmmakers.
★★★★★ | Getting the most of out its confined location, this debut feature humanizes a nightmarish event with stark immediacy and horror.
★★ | Frustratingly slow and overloaded with ideas, Retreat is a fantastically acted thriller that shows much promise from its debut director.
★★★ | Glacially paced, but oddly moving, 100 Sunset is a promising first feature from a talented filmmaker.
★★★★ | Elevated by brilliant performances from McKellen and Coel, The Christophers is a delightful little drama well worth visiting.
★★★★ | Han So-hee and Jun Jong-seo impress in this smart and thrilling neo noir from newcomer filmmaker Lee Hwan.
★ | Overlong, poorly paced, and depressingly unfunny, New Years Rev is a dismal product pretending to be punk.
