Everybody To Kenmure Street (2026) 100% EDIT “Resistance is anything but futile.” – Hammer to Nail Feb 2, 2026 Full Review Filipiñana (2026) 4.5/5 EDIT “A deceptively gentle examination of social-class hierarchies and wealth disparities, the film turns into a sharp-edged critique of both by the end, without ever losing its outward calm.” – Film Festival Today Feb 2, 2026 Full Review Arco (2025) 92% EDIT “"Arco" proves a moving, thrilling experience, filled with genuine, earned emotion and wildly enjoyable flights of fancy.” – Hammer to Nail Jan 30, 2026 Full Review Shelter (2026) 62% 2/5 EDIT “A lot of innocent people die here, which, unless you’re a psychopath, makes it really hard to enjoy the proceedings. ” – Film Festival Today Jan 30, 2026 Full Review Shame and Money (2026) 100% EDIT “Throw a great cast into the mix and we have a recipe for cinematic success.” – Hammer to Nail Jan 29, 2026 Full Review Seized (2026) 100% 3.5/5 EDIT “There is a lot to unpack here, and Liese proves an able guide through the sometimes-baroque details.” – Film Festival Today Jan 29, 2026 Full Review To Hold a Mountain (2026) EDIT “Glomazić and Tutorov have crafted an engaging modern-day fable that inspires the viewer with a vision of what we all can do to reclaim our freedom as citizens.” – Hammer to Nail Jan 28, 2026 Full Review Cookie Queens (2026) 100% EDIT “The girls hold our attention throughout. I’ll double my order of boxes, please.” – Film Festival Today Jan 28, 2026 Full Review Barbara Forever (2026) 100% EDIT “Who would she be without the cinematic gaze? It’s a fitting conundrum to ponder for a director of Hammer’s considerable stature.” – Hammer to Nail Jan 27, 2026 Full Review Young Mothers (2025) 95% EDIT “Each actress delivers a heartfelt performance, the rawness of the characters’ desperation palpable from the very first scenes.” – Hammer to Nail Jan 8, 2026 Full Review Been Here Stay Here (2024) 3.5/5 EDIT “If Usui sometimes drives his points home a little too obviously, this doesn’t take away from their essential truths. Watching this made me want to visit Tangier Island before it’s too late. The climate clock is ticking.” – Film Festival Today Jan 7, 2026 Full Review I'm Chevy Chase and You're Not (2025) 92% 3.5/5 EDIT “If you’ve ever enjoyed any of his TV appearances or films, you’ll find a lot to appreciate in the documentary. For better and for worse, Chevy Chase, now over 80, has earned the right for us to take him as he is, warts and all” – Film Festival Today Jan 2, 2026 Full Review Song Sung Blue (2025) 78% EDIT “A simultaneously inspiring and tragic tale (leavened with plenty of good humor), the film is also indirectly a searing indictment of the American healthcare system.” – Hammer to Nail Dec 25, 2025 Full Review Marty Supreme (2025) 94% EDIT “Along the simultaneously meandering and high-strung journey to what passes for a conclusion (and a trite one at that), however, the film delivers thrills that mostly make up for its shortcomings, anchored by Chalamet’s riveting performance.” – Hammer to Nail Dec 24, 2025 Full Review The Testament of Ann Lee (2025) 88% 1/5 EDIT “It may well be one of the most tedious films of the year.” – Film Festival Today Dec 23, 2025 Full Review The Housemaid (2025) 74% .5/5 EDIT “This is easily one of the worst films of the year.” – Film Festival Today Dec 19, 2025 Full Review Little Amélie or the Character of Rain (2025) 98% EDIT “Emotions are never oversold, instead landing with just the right notes. The end result is a lovely work of art that transports and transforms, exactly how a movie should.” – Hammer to Nail Dec 18, 2025 Full Review Little Trouble Girls (2025) 98% EDIT “ A coming-of-age tale wrestling with the usual sexual confusion of teenagers, Djukic’s movie captures the heightened emotions and desires of its subjects in precise compositions that sharpen the immediacy of pubescent isolation.” – Hammer to Nail Dec 12, 2025 Full Review Ella McCay (2025) 23% 1/5 EDIT “Shining like a beacon amid the cinematic darkness is the great Albert Brooks as the soon-to-be-ex-governor. The movie desperately needs more of him.” – Film Festival Today Dec 12, 2025 Full Review Reflection in a Dead Diamond (2025) 84% EDIT “Impressively, Cattet and Forzani even manage to make some logical sense out of their pastiche, even as they throw the kitchen sink into the mix. Really, though, the audio-visual razzle-dazzle is the reason to watch. Diamonds are a cinephile’s best friend.” – Hammer to Nail Dec 5, 2025 Full Review Zootopia 2 (2025) 91% 2.5/5 EDIT “If you can keep your needs simple, you’ll probably have a good-enough time.” – Film Festival Today Nov 25, 2025 Full Review Train Dreams (2025) 95% EDIT “Slowly, over the course of its 102 minutes, the film’s narrative washes over the viewer with poignant grace.” – Hammer to Nail Nov 20, 2025 Full Review Idiotka (2025) 83% EDIT “Beyond the strong performances, the best parts of the film, in terms of hearty laughs, are the scenes devoted to lampooning the utter vacuousness of much of our modern influencer culture.” – Hammer to Nail Nov 11, 2025 Full Review Debut, or, Objects of the Field of Debris as Currently Catalogued (2025) EDIT “The structure is the thing, and our pleasure in deciphering it is the movie’s raison d’être. The solution may lie within, but if not, the quest is still very much worth watching.” – Hammer to Nail Nov 10, 2025 Full Review Nuremberg (2025) 72% EDIT “And yet, "Nuremberg" may just be one of the most important films of this season, if only for its timely reminder that criminals—even if their actions are justified by the regime in power—can be brought to justice.” – Hammer to Nail Nov 7, 2025 Full Review
