Sirât 0

Sirât

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.

The President’s Cake 0

The President’s Cake

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

Wuthering Heights 0

Wuthering Heights

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.

The Strangers: Chapter 3 0

The Strangers: Chapter 3

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.

Solo Mio 0

Solo Mio

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

Dracula 0

Dracula

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

Calle Málaga 0

Calle Málaga

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

Pillion 0

Pillion

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

Whistle 0

Whistle

A machine to kill vague people, “Whistle” never delivers on its frightful promise.
