Chicken for Linda! (2023) 94% EDIT “Astounding, vivid, and lively.” – Chicago Reader May 3, 2024 Full Review Joy Ride (2023) 90% EDIT “A crisp, 90-minute summer comedy that can tackle large questions of diaspora and belonging without getting bogged down in tacky self-seriousness.” – Chicago Reader Jul 3, 2023 Full Review Return to Seoul (2022) 97% EDIT “Heady, searing, strident, and poignant...” – Chicago Reader Mar 3, 2023 Full Review Eternals (2021) 47% EDIT “It's the ambiguity, the attention to a person's capacity for contradiction and change, that sets Zhao's MCU debut apart...” – Chicago Reader Oct 29, 2021 Full Review Wife of a Spy (2020) 89% EDIT “Director Kiyoshi Kurosawa beautifully and methodically renders the story of a married couple plunged into uncertainty in the days leading up to World War II.” – Chicago Reader Sep 17, 2021 Full Review House of Hummingbird (2018) 98% EDIT “With an easy, lingering tempo and stunning frames shot through with light, this South Korean drama leaves the viewer with a sense of contemplative midsummer lassitude.” – Chicago Reader Aug 13, 2020 Full Review Funan (2019) 93% EDIT “Luminous and immersive, at times overwhelmingly so, this film is a realist's ode to the hope that remains after one has survived the unimaginable.” – Chicago Reader Mar 25, 2020 Full Review Sunset (2018) 61% EDIT “Instead, this feels like an abstract ode to the frantic, listless, tightly wound thing a city becomes on the eve of its demise.” – Chicago Reader Mar 25, 2020 Full Review Ramen Shop (2018) 86% EDIT “Each moment is an ode to Singaporean and Japanese cuisine sure to leave an audience salivating.” – Chicago Reader Mar 24, 2020 Full Review Worlds of Ursula K. Le Guin (2018) 100% EDIT “In the documentary, Le Guin describes her work as one of "holding doors or windows open" for people; this film does just that, opening an intimate window onto the tender interiority and expansive curiosity of Le Guin's mind.” – Chicago Reader Mar 10, 2020 Full Review Good Kisser (2019) 86% EDIT “At times giggly, at times cringey, this film initially seems like a rom-com but quickly turns into the anxious, tightly wound reflection on sexuality and self it clearly was meant to be.” – Chicago Reader Feb 21, 2020 Full Review
