“Girls Like Girls” is the kind of coming-of-age film that’s just quiet enough to avoid the loud, broad cliches of the genre.

“Leviticus,” a romantic horror, experiments with the idea that one’s desires can become their worst fears.

While I have no doubt a lot of this was improvised, I also get the sense that this was a “there are no bad ideas” production.

Few films have captured the anxiety of a wary older generation looking at a seemingly lost youngest generation with greater perceptiveness.

For once, a Robin Hood film has come along that challenges us to think about what redemption costs.

Sehiri understands the power of the camera to capture the soul of a person.

While one‑dimensional family dynamics and an uneven final act hold it back, Hall’s anchored performance and Bravo’s atmospheric direction ensure the unease lingers.

“Stop! That! Train!” twists and turns and derails a few times.

A general wash of generalized muted feeling, where nothing coheres because nothing sharpens into focus.

Starts with great promise and a visually dynamic monster attack sequence. Then it settles into a mostly formulaic groove.
