1/5
Normal (2025) Cameron Meier It would be a train wreck, except there are no trains in tiny, icy Normal. So it’s a snow-plough wreck, with a large body count and a small-mindedness.

Chopin, Chopin! (2025) Cameron Meier The French- and Polish-language extravaganza is the type of period piece rarely seen anymore.

YOU HAD TO BE THERE: How the Toronto Godspell Ignited the Comedy Revolution... (2025) Cameron Meier Nick Davis’s partly animated, talking-heads documentary – despite its share of laughs, insights and good vibes – is as tedious, self-indulgent, rambling and self-aggrandizing as its absurdly long title.

The Marching Band (2024) Cameron Meier The chords in writer-director Emmanuel Courcol’s dramedy ... are often dissident. But the through-line is harmonious.

The Last Viking (2025) Cameron Meier Balance of characters, genres and tones is often off, especially when it turns violent. But irresistible weirdness and strong performances rule the day. Skol!

I Swear (2025) Cameron Meier It’s not every day a film changes your mind about something.

Everywhere Man: The Lives and Times of Peter Asher (2025) Cameron Meier Daniel Geller and Dayna Goldfine’s joyful and surprisingly revelatory doc might be the greatest pop-music story you don’t already know.

3.25/5
The Christophers (2025) Cameron Meier A study in contrasts, the chamber piece is lighthearted but deep, simple but multi-layered, overstated and under-performed, with lots to say about the value of one’s life work.

3.5/5
Project Hail Mary (2026) Cameron Meier The sci-fi-comedy-drama-action-adventure (say that five times) precariously balances big, smart ideas with light-hearted, zany sass, all while telling a story of potential apocalypse.

Dreams (2025) Cameron Meier Both the relationship and the film remain cold and flat, with dialed-in performances, moderated tones, medium shots and an almost total lack of music and close-ups.

4.25/5
Mr. Nobody Against Putin (2025) Cameron Meier The film belongs to Talankin, who not only co-directed but narrates in an almost "Roger & Me" style, even managing to interject some humor into the tragedy. He is the Russian Michael Moore.

1.75/5
Superman (2025) Cameron Meier The ridiculous story, a poorly cast Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor, too many other supernatural characters and overreliance on digital effects wastes a good performance from David Corenswet as Superman and an excellent one from Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane

4.5/5
Young Adult (2011) Cameron Meier "Young Adult" is arguably, alternatingly, the funniest and saddest film of 2011 while simultaneously being the most deceptively profound. It’s a coming-of-age tale for grownups.

Avatar: Fire and Ash (2025) Cameron Meier It has indeed captured the zeitgeist, for it is just like Trump’s America: big, loud and dumb.

Rental Family (2025) Cameron Meier It has the courage to ask – in an otherwise lighthearted film – what it means to interact with fellow humans and how the roles we play in life shape our reality and pseudo-reality.

The Life of Chuck (2024) Cameron Meier Chuck’s brain, as Walt Whitman wrote, "contains multitudes," meaning Chuck has populated his death-bed dream with people he has met throughout his life and given them stories that mean something to him.

3.5/5
Train Dreams (2025) Cameron Meier Though he manages to find some perspective or meaning in the meaningless toward the end of the film, "Train Dreams" is that rare movie exploring a person whose life never amounts to much. No big dreams. No major accomplishments. Just existence.

The Testament of Ann Lee (2025) Cameron Meier Like Shakerism, "Testament" is unique, ill-conceived and unpleasant.

Jay Kelly (2025) Cameron Meier Despite its owing its life to many better movies, it provides a powerful lesson about fame, friendship and family.

Die My Love (2025) Cameron Meier Grace. That’s who I am, and what I lack. But life goes on. For me, for Jackson and for our baby boy. Because it must. Or maybe not. I don’t know. I guess it goes on regardless.

3.5/5
Nuremberg (2025) Cameron Meier Despite its predictability and lack of nuance, "Nuremberg" is an essential watch for these times, or any time. It’s not necessarily one of the best films of 2025, but it is one of the most important.

Blue Moon (2025) Cameron Meier Like the little pet mouse that Hart describes to White, the entire film – and Hart himself – have what Hart calls a “New York look of doomed hopefulness.”

Anemone (2025) Cameron Meier Depending upon your mood and your level of patience, the movie will either bloom for you or lose its petals one by one over 126 minutes of methodicality until all that remains is another wonderful performance by Day-Lewis but not much else.

Good Boy (2025) Cameron Meier If you look past the lovability of the loyal, lead canine, you will find little to sink your teeth into.

If I Had Legs I'd Kick You (2025) Cameron Meier Despite being billed as a comedy-drama, "Legs" – a weird, Lynchian blend of "Mother!" and "Ordinary People" – is one of the most nightmarishly uncomfortable films of the year. It’s also one of the best.

The Naked Gun (2025) Cameron Meier Despite the plethora of dad jokes, this isn’t your father’s "Naked Gun."

A Big Bold Beautiful Journey (2025) Cameron Meier “Choose to be content, and enjoy the moments of happiness that come from that,” Sarah tells David. ... Though I am not overjoyed by all Kogonada’s choices, I am content. And that quiet contentment is affording me a surprising amount of movie happiness.

Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale (2025) Cameron Meier "The Grand Finale" is a suitable, sentimental sendoff for an entertainment institution and easily the best of the three films.

Went Up the Hill (2024) Cameron Meier Like the plot, the title makes little sense too until you remember the names of the two main characters. They aren’t exactly fetching a pail of water, but there is some “tumbling after,” both symbolically and literally.

I, Daniel Blake (2016) Cameron Meier It’s no surprise Loach made a film that delivers such an emotional yet truthful pummeling. After all, he’s been neglecting to pull his punches since the late 1960s.

The Phoenician Scheme (2025) Cameron Meier Mr. Anderson ... get away from your routine, rethink your storytelling and, for the love of God, try something different. ... Show us something new, something we didn’t think you had inside.

Threads (1984) Cameron Meier And above all, over its 112 minutes, it continues to emotionally escalate the inescapable tragedy. This visceral relentlessness is its cinematic modus operandi.

Time Travel Is Dangerous (2024) Cameron Meier "Time Travel Is Dangerous" has more than enough time to expand the story [from the short film]. In fact, it has too much time. And therein lies its downfall.

Mr. K (2024) Cameron Meier I applaud your imagination, Ms. Schwab, but next time spend more time channeling Rod Serling. For while Mr. K’s dimension has plenty of sight and sound, it doesn’t have enough mind.

Here (2024) Cameron Meier The film is filled with fascinating ideas and the best premise of any 2024 movie. But thanks to heavy-handed dialogue, ham-fisted directing, on-the-nose messaging and overly broad acting, it’s one of the most disappointing movies of the year.

A Complete Unknown (2024) Cameron Meier "A Complete Unknown" [is] the perfect title for [Dylan's] bio-pic, as it seems the answer to the age-old question “Who is Bob Dylan?” is still blowin’ in the wind.

Joker: Folie à Deux (2024) Cameron Meier An eclectic and original vision from Phillips, who again co-wrote the script with Scott Silver (based, of course, on DC Comics characters), the film both embraces and transcends its weirdness.

Beetlejuice Beetlejuice (2024) Cameron Meier The story is a mess, but that matters little if the mood is right, and it mostly is thanks to a totally beetle-shit-crazy Burton, who is entirely in his element. ... [The film] represents a healthy dose of pure insanity.

Widow Clicquot (2023) Cameron Meier Despite sumptuous art direction, costumes and cinematography, "Widow Clicquot" would be rather pedestrian ... if not for Haley Bennett, who, in the title role, successfully balances vulnerability and power, while projecting her trademark radiance.

Le chêne (2022) Cameron Meier This stunning French nature documentary, in just 80 narration-less minutes, rids your mind of the problems of the modern world, replacing them with an oak tree and the creatures great and small living in and around it.

Daddio (2023) Cameron Meier Cleverly executed visuals, sharp editing and well-meaning performances aren’t quite enough for "Daddio." It’s often engaging, ... but just like all the taxi rides I’ve taken in my life, I forgot this one as soon as the cab door slammed shut.

Kinds of Kindness (2024) Cameron Meier "Kinds of Kindness" is less than the sum of its parts. But the parts are spasmodically fantastic and, when allowed to simmer in the film’s Louisiana kitchen, produce the strangest three-course meal of the year. Dig in.

Pignorant (2024) Cameron Meier Do a few minutes of taste enjoyment override the right of sentient beings to exist? If you eat pork ... that is the question you must ask yourself. And if you either refuse to answer or have no interest in "Pignorant," you just might be a sociopath.

The Dead Don't Hurt (2023) Cameron Meier "The dead don’t hurt.” But the missed opportunities of a promising story, memorable ambience and two good lead performances ache excruciatingly.

Unfrosted (2024) Cameron Meier "Unfrosted" might be the best commercial ever made, but it’s not much of a movie.

Wildcat (2023) Cameron Meier The film might mean more to those familiar with the author’s short stories and novels, as the script repeatedly adopts an “embedded narrative” that blurs the line between O’Connor’s life and her characters’.
