The Balloonists (2025) EDIT “John Dower’s adventure-filled crowd-pleaser is both a vintage buddy movie and a celebration of human determination.” – Variety Jan 29, 2026 Full Review Merv (2025) 35% EDIT “Even an Adorable Terrier Performer Can’t Enliven Prime Video’s Wooden Rom-Com.” – Variety Jan 29, 2026 Full Review The Lake (2026) EDIT “"The Lake" is so much more than a regionally isolated issue documentary. Its lessons should apply to every single environmental fight around the world.” – Variety Jan 29, 2026 Full Review Extra Geography (2026) 100% EDIT “Uncompromisingly sharp-tongued and led by sensational newcomers Marni Duggan and Galaxie Clear, "Extra Geography" finds much humor and tenderness in feminine angst and youthful cluelessness.” – Variety Jan 29, 2026 Full Review The Friend's House Is Here (2026) 100% EDIT “Shot entirely in secret like recent Jafar Panahi films, and paying homage to Abbas Kiarostami in the title, Hossein Keshavarz and Maryam Ataei's film is both freshly contemporary and rooted in history.” – Variety Jan 29, 2026 Full Review The Only Living Pickpocket in New York (2026) 100% EDIT “‘Pickpocket’ feels like a new, minor-key New York classic.” – Variety Jan 29, 2026 Full Review Black Phone 2 (2025) 72% EDIT “Set in the early ’80s, it’s a movie that proudly understands what made the horror genre of its decade a unique beast with steely-sharp fingers.” – AV Club Oct 17, 2025 Full Review After the Hunt (2025) 37% 3/4 EDIT “It’s a movie that pushes us to be better, deeper thinkers and assessors. ” – RogerEbert.com Sep 28, 2025 Full Review A Big Bold Beautiful Journey (2025) 37% EDIT “The only destination “A Big Bold Beautiful Journey” approaches in the end is an unfortunate bore.” – Variety Sep 17, 2025 Full Review One of Those Days When Hemme Dies (2024) EDIT “While Murat Fıratoğlu's first feature has limited emotional appeal, it establishes him as a promising talent to watch.” – Variety Sep 17, 2025 Full Review Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale (2025) 91% EDIT “With a profound embrace of the changing times and clever winks at Downton devotees, writer Julian Fellowes and director Simon Curtis deliver a heart-swelling conclusion.” – Variety Sep 17, 2025 Full Review Ask E. Jean (2025) EDIT “To Carroll, it was always her name and reputation that mattered the most, anyway. Watching her defiantly claim both is what makes “Ask E. Jean” a most rewarding experience.” – Variety Sep 17, 2025 Full Review Together (2025) 89% 3.5/4 EDIT “Finding out whether an on-screen couple have what it takes has rarely felt this cutting, and, ultimately, this rewarding.” – RogerEbert.com Jul 29, 2025 Full Review No Sleep Till (2024) 94% 3/4 EDIT “Elegiac in tone, melancholic in style, and documentarian in spirit, Simpson thoughtfully captures the micro preoccupations of the film’s characters.” – RogerEbert.com Jul 18, 2025 Full Review Alpha (2025) 56% D EDIT “An inexplicably shallow AIDS allegory.” – AV Club Jun 12, 2025 Full Review Re-Creation (2025) 71% EDIT “A slickly stunning chamber piece. Jim Sheridan and David Merriman hold a mirror to our humanity in an elegant ’12 Angry Men’ variation. ” – Variety Jun 11, 2025 Full Review In Cold Light (2025) 45% EDIT “A tiresome neo-noir that does no favors for Maika Monroe or Troy Kotsur.” – Variety Jun 11, 2025 Full Review The Best You Can (2025) 87% EDIT “While a little contrived at times, Michael J. Weithorn’s unassuming dramedy feels comfortingly sweet thanks to an earned ending and the real-life couple’s natural on-screen ease.” – Variety Jun 10, 2025 Full Review She Dances (2025) EDIT “In the end, the only lasting memory of “She Dances” will be the one spelled out in its opening credits —introducing us to Audrey Zahn, before she inevitably pirouettes her way to greener cinematic pastures.” – Variety Jun 10, 2025 Full Review The Last One for the Road (2025) EDIT “Loosely reminiscent of the happy-sad fables of Alice Rohrwacher, Francesco Sossai’s boozy dramedy is enchanting even when it briefly veers into predictable territory.” – Variety Jun 10, 2025 Full Review Aisha Can't Fly Away (2025) EDIT “Despite his iffy handle on mixing tones and genres, Mostafa steers the layered and chaotic world of “Aisha Can’t Fly Away” with a painterly lens, thankfully avoiding a sense of visual romanticization in the midst of her lead’s dire circumstances. ” – Variety Jun 10, 2025 Full Review The President's Cake (2025) 100% EDIT “While “The President’s Cake” mostly plays like a genial fairy tale, with superbly balanced humor and drama, Hadi is still unsparing about the ills of patriarchal society. It is a compassionate and winsome debut, packed with an unassuming punch.” – Variety Jun 10, 2025 Full Review Peak Everything (2025) 75% EDIT “Anne Émond’s genial tale about a kindly man troubled by Earth’s approaching end is sweet and mysterious for a while until it loses the plot.” – Variety Jun 10, 2025 Full Review Amrum (2025) 92% EDIT “Set on a picturesque windswept German island in the waning days of World War II, the Cannes selection walks an impossible morality line with delicate beauty. Very much like Nanning’s journey, “Amrum” itself is rooted in a shattering act of generosity.” – Variety Jun 10, 2025 Full Review Promised Sky (2025) 80% EDIT “At times untidy, but cumulatively powerful, Sehiri’s authentic look into the lives of Ivorian women in Tunisia is deeply human. ” – Variety Jun 10, 2025 Full Review
