Mercy 0

Mercy

Screen-popping and kinetic but ultimately tiresome and borderline dopey.

Night Patrol 0

Night Patrol

Life isn’t sugarcoated here, only drenched in blood.

Deepfaking Sam Altman 0

Deepfaking Sam Altman

A thoughtful but rather thin documentary about the ethics and legality of Generative AI.

Seeds 0

Seeds

“Seeds” has a tactile intimacy that’s incredibly powerful, placing these ordinary people in an almost timeless continuum of seemingly ordinary behavior that becomes extraordinary in memory, or through the eyes of a camera.

Sound of Falling 0

Sound of Falling

Operates like a ghost story, complete with a haunted house, but the ghosts aren’t supernatural. The ghost is history. 

Shuffle 0

Shuffle

Admirable work from Flaherty, shining a light on the greed that mostly fuels these so-called wellness centers.

A Private Life 0

A Private Life

The ideas that the film prompts, coupled with Foster’s nuanced performance, make for a compelling enough character study.
