Drive-Away Dolls (2024) 64% 7.5/10 EDIT “Drive-Away Dolls is ultimately a scattershot affair, a cinematic jolt to the system with heart and soul that steers it over the finish line.” – Cultured Vultures Feb 26, 2024 Full Review Air (2023) 93% 8.5/10 EDIT “Air is a compelling, expertly acted ensemble piece that defies a potentially ho-hum premise to become a slam-dunk.” – Cultured Vultures Apr 10, 2023 Full Review The Tragedy of Macbeth (2021) 93% 10/10 EDIT “The Tragedy of Macbeth is bold, ferocious, gritty, and starkly beautiful. Something wicked this way comes, indeed.” – Cultured Vultures Jan 18, 2022 Full Review Licorice Pizza (2021) 90% 10/10 EDIT “Licorice Pizza is a mouth-watering cinematic offering.” – Cultured Vultures Nov 26, 2021 Full Review The Estate (2020) 27% 3/10 EDIT “The Estate is a cynical exercise in immaturity over substance.” – Cultured Vultures Oct 17, 2021 Full Review The Manor (2021) 62% 5/10 EDIT “If viewers suspend their disbelief and disregard expectations of poignancy, Hershey's confident performance and enjoyably ridiculous late-game reveals keep it afloat - barely.” – Cultured Vultures Oct 14, 2021 Full Review Strawberry Mansion (2021) 87% 8.5/10 EDIT “Strawberry Mansion serves up unforgettable visuals with incisive social commentary in a manner that may prove polarizing, but remains thrillingly original.” – Cultured Vultures Aug 18, 2021 Full Review Junk Head (2017) 100% 8/10 EDIT “Hori and his team have crafted an unsettling, charming, and grotesquely beautiful cinematic experience that lays the groundwork for something truly special down the line.” – Cultured Vultures Aug 10, 2021 Full Review The Evening Hour (2020) 70% 7.5/10 EDIT “The Evening Hour is a thematically rich character study that succeeds despite uneven pacing and predictable storytelling.” – Cultured Vultures Aug 4, 2021 Full Review The Wanting Mare (2020) 80% 7/10 EDIT “The Wanting Mare is an ambitious film that's worth watching for its creativity alone.” – Cultured Vultures Feb 8, 2021 Full Review Love Sarah (2020) 62% 6.5/10 EDIT “Most viewers who seek out Love Sarah might be satisfied by its sappiness and comforting predictability, but this creation could have used more time in the oven.” – Cultured Vultures Jan 24, 2021 Full Review Sound of Metal (2019) 97% 10/10 EDIT “Sound of Metal is not always easy viewing, but provides a nuanced, hard-hitting character study that enlightens, sobers, and leaves a lasting impact.” – Cultured Vultures Dec 7, 2020 Full Review Hillbilly Elegy (2020) 24% 4/10 EDIT “Ultimately, when you strip away the acting talent and the real people the story documents, viewers are left with a film that, sadly, sets itself apart for the wrong reasons entirely.” – Cultured Vultures Nov 27, 2020 Full Review Painter (2020) 6.5/10 EDIT “Painter proves solid enough on its own merits, but feels overstuffed and lacks surprise.” – Cultured Vultures Oct 23, 2020 Full Review The Trial of the Chicago 7 (2020) 89% 8/10 EDIT “The Trial of the Chicago 7 isn't perfect, but Sorkin's reenactment of this dark historical event features outstanding performances and typically entertaining dialogue.” – Cultured Vultures Oct 21, 2020 Full Review Lapsis (2020) 95% 7.5/10 EDIT “Featuring a beautifully realized futuristic vision and spotlighting relevant themes in the age of Amazon, Lapsis deserves your attention despite its flaws and missed potential.” – Cultured Vultures Oct 13, 2020 Full Review From the Vine (2019) 74% 6/10 EDIT “From the Vine provides exactly what you expect and little else - light entertainment for an oppressively dark time.” – Cultured Vultures Oct 13, 2020 Full Review 12 Hour Shift (2020) 78% 8/10 EDIT “12 Hour Shift should satiate the appetites of viewers looking for an unabashedly bonkers dark comedy that embraces the craziness of its plot.” – Cultured Vultures Sep 28, 2020 Full Review She's in Portland (2020) 67% 3/10 EDIT “Ultimately, She's in Portland may satisfy viewers looking for aesthetically pleasing panoramas and skin-deep storytelling, but the film lacks justification for its existence.” – Cultured Vultures Sep 22, 2020 Full Review The Social Dilemma (2020) 84% 6/10 EDIT “As a scare tactic, the film definitely succeeds, and everyone should be aware of the information it covers” – Cultured Vultures Sep 17, 2020 Full Review
