Everything Everywhere All at Once (2022) 93% 4.5/5 EDIT “ This is a film about finding love and connection when you’ve been ground down. Even the bizarre hot dog-handed world gets to have its own deep moments that will likely make you cry. ” – We Got This Covered Jul 19, 2022 Full Review Fatherhood (2021) 67% EDIT “Fatherhood is about as forgettable as its title.” – The Spool Jun 21, 2021 Full Review The Inheritance (2020) 91% EDIT “There's a lot of creativity in the filmmaking. The problem is that these ideas and histories are never brought together into something cohesive.” – The Spool Mar 26, 2021 Full Review Fallen Angels (1995) 96% EDIT “There's a lot to like here, from the moodiness of Hong Kong to the music, to Wong Kar-wai's signature stunning lighting.” – The Spool Mar 19, 2021 Full Review Biggie: I Got a Story to Tell (2021) 78% EDIT “This film is absolutely a shallow puff piece, but it's a watchable one.” – The Spool Mar 2, 2021 Full Review The United States vs. Billie Holiday (2021) 55% EDIT “It feels like there are several different movies happening at the same time, and Daniels never commits to one.” – The Spool Feb 24, 2021 Full Review Little Fish (2020) 91% EDIT “In the midst of a flurry of pandemic-themed media coming out which tries to reflect the [present] situation, LITTLE FISH manages to distinguish itself from the crowd with its brilliant leads and emotional resonance.” – The Spool Feb 9, 2021 Full Review The Prom (2020) 54% EDIT “In spite of its issues, it's hard to deny the earnest sincerity and spectacle of The Prom.” – The Spool Dec 22, 2020 Full Review Wild Mountain Thyme (2020) 25% EDIT “It might be possible to overlook [Dornan's performance], but in a film this tonally disjointed, bad casting becomes pretty glaring.” – The Spool Dec 10, 2020 Full Review Totally Under Control (2020) 99% EDIT “Sometimes the choices feel on the nose, like footage of square-dancing serving as a metaphor for the viral spread, but they're generally suitable and visually interesting.” – The Spool Oct 21, 2020 Full Review The Forty-Year-Old Version (2020) 99% EDIT “As a performer, Blank's a winning presence too; she moves smoothly between the comedic and the dramatic, the two modes never feeling incongruent.” – The Spool Oct 12, 2020 Full Review Tenet (2020) 70% EDIT “When you ignore what Nolan wants you to pay attention to (how smart he is) and just let the dynamism and endless cool wash over you, it's a thrilling experience.” – The Spool Sep 3, 2020 Full Review Centigrade (2020) 40% EDIT “"While the premise here is interesting, this quickly descends into a tedious and disappointing slog."” – The Spool Aug 28, 2020 Full Review Lingua Franca (2019) 86% EDIT “"This is an emotionally raw and subversive work with a lot of artistry."” – The Spool Aug 27, 2020 Full Review Project Power (2020) 61% EDIT “For a premise that boils down to "What if the crack epidemic but with superpowers?", the framing actually holds up pretty well.” – The Spool Aug 13, 2020 Full Review Waiting for the Barbarians (2019) 54% EDIT “Instead of being a grand meditation on the ethics of colonialism, Waiting for the Barbarians ends up confused, dull, and woefully shallow.” – The Spool Aug 10, 2020 Full Review Sometimes Always Never (2018) 82% EDIT “It very much feels like a mediocre fringe festival script stretched to feature-length.” – The Spool Jul 13, 2020 Full Review Hamilton (2020) 98% EDIT “Instead of reckoning with the past and present, we get a colourblind presentation of history which erases the racialised dynamics on which America is built.” – The Spool Jul 3, 2020 Full Review Miss Juneteenth (2020) 99% EDIT “You get the familiar repackaged with such tenderness you'll forget that you've seen it before.” – The Spool Jun 18, 2020 Full Review Da 5 Bloods (2020) 92% EDIT “Da 5 Bloods feels both timely and timeless, Lee giving an unflinching look at the connections between anti-Blackness, identity, and American imperialism.” – The Spool Jun 13, 2020 Full Review
