Review of Minari (2021)

By Alison Willmore (681) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 07 Jan 2021

Chung is a patient filmmaker who works in small sequences that accrue imperceptibly into something grander…

Review of Soul (2020)

By Alison Willmore (681) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 29 Dec 2020

It’s whimsical and bold and also easier to admire in the abstract than to get deeply emotionally invested in, though it features a late-breaking…

Review of Wild Mountain Thyme (2020)

By Alison Willmore (681) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 16 Dec 2020

Wild Mountain Thyme is not just charmless…

Review of Another Round (2020)

By Alison Willmore (681) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 16 Dec 2020

Review of Freaky (2020)

By Alison Willmore (681) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 12 Nov 2020

Freaky, an unabashedly gory but also oddly sweet feature from Christopher Landon, is a riff on slashers that really owes more to the meta-horror…

Review of The Craft: Legacy (2020)

By Alison Willmore (681) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 29 Oct 2020

They’re progressive, positive young women, and they’re tragically boring, which is less the fault of their woke makeover than the film’s…

Review of Roald Dahl's The Witches (2020)

By Alison Willmore (681) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 22 Oct 2020

It’s an adaptation without direction or purpose, with an unwieldy but deeply committed performance at its center…

Review of The Forty-Year-Old Version (2020)

By Alison Willmore (681) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 07 Oct 2020

Shot in black-and-white with occasional accents of color, and given to camera-facing testimonials from characters around Radha’s neighborhood…

Review of Possessor (2020)

By Alison Willmore (681) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 05 Oct 2020

If Possessor ultimately feels more like a testament to its director’s excellent taste in influences than a film that entirely gels in itself,…

Review of On the Rocks (2020)

By Alison Willmore (681) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 30 Sep 2020

On the Rocks isn’t a great movie, but it’s one overflowing with feelings that it tries to squash into something tidier…

Review of The Trial of the Chicago 7 (2020)

By Alison Willmore (681) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 26 Sep 2020

This film is one of those exhilarating instances when Sorkin finds a context in which all of his well-established impulses that can be so annoying…

Review of The Nest (2020)

By Alison Willmore (681) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 20 Sep 2020

As a statement on a decade of consumerism, The Nest doesn’t have anything particularly new to say, but as a fable of familial dysfunction,…

Review of Ammonite (2020)

By Alison Willmore (681) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 20 Sep 2020

Ammonite is Winslet’s movie to shoulder, and she carries it as far as she can…

Review of Nomadland (2021)

By Alison Willmore (681) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 16 Sep 2020

Through these characters, Zhao is able to examine the idea of wide-open frontiers without nostalgia or the need to pathologize the parts of…

Review of Mulan (2020)

By Alison Willmore (681) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 04 Sep 2020

Mulan is a dour drag as a work of art and entertainment, an empty if occasionally impressive-looking spectacle propped up by some incredibly…

Review of I'm Thinking of Ending Things (2020)

By Alison Willmore (681) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 03 Sep 2020

In its constant asterisking of its own material, I’m Thinking of Ending Things feels like an artistic dead end, like the confession of someone…

Review of Bill & Ted Face the Music (2020)

By Alison Willmore (681) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 29 Aug 2020

The most successful quality of the film is how close it keeps in spirit and haphazard style to the first two installments, and how it feels…

Review of Unhinged (2020)

By Alison Willmore (681) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 21 Aug 2020

Review of Project Power (2020)

By Alison Willmore (681) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 13 Aug 2020
