Review of Kimi (2022)

By Barry Hertz (792) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 09 Feb 2022

Soderbergh, once again acting as his own cinematographer and editor, pulls out nearly every cinematic trick he has to elevate Koepp’s material,…

Review of Parallel Mothers (2021)

By Barry Hertz (792) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 09 Feb 2022

Parallel Mothers’ twin purposes merge into something just shy of profound. It is a moment, and movie, that just might save your soul, too…

Review of Blacklight (2022)

By Barry Hertz (792) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 09 Feb 2022

Much as I have enjoyed the actor’s embrace of scuzzy revenge-thrillers, he may have hit the point of diminishing returns…

Review of Jackass Forever (2022)

By Barry Hertz (792) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 03 Feb 2022

I can sympathize with the skeptics who take one look at Jackass’s cultural durability and shake their heads in disgust over the state of…

Review of What Do We See When We Look at the Sky? (2021)

By Barry Hertz (792) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 21 Jan 2022

Split into two parts and narrated by Koberidze himself, What Do We See When We Look at the Sky…

Review of Wheel of Fortune and Fantasy (2021)

By Barry Hertz (792) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 12 Jan 2022

Each of the three short stories making up Japanese director Ryusuke Hamaguchi’s new omnibus film Wheel of Fortune and Fantasy could stand…

Review of The Tragedy of Macbeth (2021)

By Barry Hertz (792) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 21 Dec 2021

There is as much wit as there is wretchedness, the director having no trouble finding the human comedy scratching beneath the title tragedy…

Review of The Tragedy of Macbeth (2021)

By Barry Hertz (792) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 21 Dec 2021

There is as much wit as there is wretchedness, the director having no trouble finding the human comedy scratching beneath the title tragedy…

Review of The Matrix Resurrections (2021)

By Barry Hertz (792) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 21 Dec 2021

A weird, hilarious, romantic, messy, violent and upsetting manic spectacle, Lana Wachowski’s sequel-reboot-remake encapsulates every emotion…

Review of Licorice Pizza (2021)

By Barry Hertz (792) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 20 Dec 2021

A comedy, a drama, a romance, a memory, Licorice Pizza is the director’s warmest and fuzziest creation…

Review of Being the Ricardos (2021)

By Barry Hertz (792) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 20 Dec 2021

With some deft trimming, Being the Ricardos could be a fine HBO Sunday night movie “event,” as they used to be (or still are?) called…

Review of The King's Man (2021)

By Barry Hertz (792) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 14 Dec 2021

A tonally wild and historically, um, loose First World War thriller, The King’s Man arrives as a head-scratching mess of bewildering ambition…

Review of Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021)

By Barry Hertz (792) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 14 Dec 2021

What I can say, without angering (almost) anyone, is that Spider-Man: No Way Home is both a gigantic act of franchise-mad hubris, and a ridiculous…

Review of Nightmare Alley (2021)

By Barry Hertz (792) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 13 Dec 2021

Some moviegoers will be repelled – there was only a smattering of light applause during the film’s Toronto premiere, which was filled with…

Review of Don't Look Up (2021)

By Barry Hertz (792) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 07 Dec 2021

Conceived as a climate-change metaphor, but given an oily new layer thanks to the pandemic, the film’s conceit could be sharply effective,…

Review of West Side Story (2021)

By Barry Hertz (792) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 02 Dec 2021

Here is a glorious and genuine movie-movie: a vivid, sweeping, beautiful piece of top-tier pop-art…

Review of Benedetta (2021)

By Barry Hertz (792) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 29 Nov 2021

While Benedetta the woman may have been touched by Heaven or cursed from Hell or neither, Benedetta the film is undoubtedly a miracle…

Review of House of Gucci (2021)

By Barry Hertz (792) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 24 Nov 2021

House of Gucci is a movie about a family at war with itself – yet Scott’s film is engaged in its own distracting skirmishes, with battles…

Review of Bad Luck Banging or Loony Porn (2021)

By Barry Hertz (792) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 23 Nov 2021

There is almost zero chance that this film escapes the festival or art-house circuit to become a mainstream cultural artifact – its sexually…

Review of Drive My Car (2021)

By Barry Hertz (792) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 22 Nov 2021

Take three hours out of your life, and enjoy one of the most fulfilling cinematic rides of the year…
