Islands (2025)
93%
EDIT
“Islands is less likely to leave a viewer on the edge of their seat than it is to make them feel that they’ve dozed off on a picturesque beach.” –

All That's Left of You (2025)
100%
EDIT
“Dabis does sometimes struggle to craft fully rounded characters within [the film's] vast scope... but [the director] impressively manages to accrue character detail and thematic nuance by tracing her film’s central family, patiently but with purpose.” –

The Mysterious Gaze of the Flamingo (2025)
95%
EDIT
“Structural vagueness is a minor quibble... in a film marked by both sensitivity and boldness. Céspedes, with a distinctive point of view, holds the community of queer outsiders that populate his film with a loving yet unflinching gaze.” –

Oh. What. Fun. (2025)
35%
EDIT
“There is no joy, no humor, no pathos to be found in Oh. What. Fun.; the best one can say for it is that it might inspire viewers to turn off the TV and spend time with their family.” –

“Though there are some glimmers of aesthetic and narrative interest around the margins of 100 Nights of Hero, the film fails to add up to a cohesive or captivating whole.” –

Peter Hujar's Day (2025)
92%
EDIT
“A tender, tactile remounting of a near-forgotten moment in time. Yet... far from a distantly respectful memorial, the vital, immersive Peter Hujar’s Day emanates life in every frame.” –

Hedda (2025)

EDIT
“Occupies a well-appointed, glossy middle ground; its diversions from Ibsen are not too shocking, and its provocations are not overly provoking. ” –

Kiss of the Spider Woman (2025)

EDIT
“Frenetic and focused, alluring and excruciating, a perfect marriage of the pleasures of musical cinema with lacerating political critique... and spectacle that meets the eye with a direct, implicating gaze.” –

With Hasan in Gaza (2025)
100%
EDIT
“A sober presentation of a nearly forgotten archive that briefly vivifies what has been irretrievably lost, With Hasan in Gaza is a vital and mournful work of preservation.” –

To a Land Unknown (2024)

“The stories of Chatila and Reda are compelling narratively, but they carry a weight beyond the scope of the film as symbolic microcosms of the devastating, disorienting effects of generations of displacement.” –

Jane Austen Wrecked My Life (2024)

“Jane Austen Wrecked My Life ultimately proves to be a well-crafted, comfortingly familiar romantic comedy... the exact sort of broadly accessible and thoughtfully made “movie for adults” that has nearly disappeared from mainstream cinema in recent years.” –
