This is an enchanting film.

It’s hard to feel freely when you are constantly and loudly reminded by every aspect of the movie that you are supposed to feel things.

This is a substantial and promising debut that could propel Hasan to either homegrown or international importance.

A reminder of what movies can do when they loosen the restraints of traditional narrative and remember that images are meant to evoke as much as they are to explain.

A valuable, if hardly revolutionary, watch.

A quietly devastating ode to the power of self-discovery.

Despite the warmth that runs throughout much of “Calle Málaga,” there’s also an anxious undercurrent.

“Dracula” gets by on the power of Besson and Landry’s conviction. 

Not a film that provides something to root for or against.

Even the strongest visuals are in service of a story that gets further and further away from what worked about the original, and it can’t find a strong enough new identity in these smoky woods.
