Review of Chasing Coral (2017)

By David Rooney (943) for The Hollywood Reporter (7,050) on 28 Jan 2017

Review of God's Own Country (2017)

By David Rooney (943) for The Hollywood Reporter (7,050) on 28 Jan 2017

Graced by its refreshingly frank treatment of gay sexuality, its casually expressive use of nudity, and its eloquent depiction of animal husbandry…

Review of Marjorie Prime (2017)

By David Rooney (943) for The Hollywood Reporter (7,050) on 28 Jan 2017

Even at its most sorrowful, Marjorie Prime is suffused with warmth, the core of it emanating from Smith in two complementary iterations of…

Review of Menashe (2017)

By David Rooney (943) for The Hollywood Reporter (7,050) on 28 Jan 2017

Joshua Z…

Review of The Last Word (2017)

By David Rooney (943) for The Hollywood Reporter (7,050) on 25 Jan 2017

If you must make another entirely predictable comedy about an unapologetic old white curmudgeon who steamrolls all opposition, you can't do…

Review of Beach Rats (2017)

By David Rooney (943) for The Hollywood Reporter (7,050) on 25 Jan 2017

Eliza Hittman's second feature is very much the work of a filmmaker with her own distinctive voice, combining moody poetry with textural sensuality…

Review of Mudbound (2017)

By David Rooney (943) for The Hollywood Reporter (7,050) on 24 Jan 2017

Mudbound requires a taste for leisurely storytelling generally more focused on building careful nuances and layered characters than on big…

Review of Wilson (2017)

By David Rooney (943) for The Hollywood Reporter (7,050) on 24 Jan 2017

Despite its appealing performers and some tasty comic moments, Wilson overestimates our affection for a grating antihero only mildly warmed…

Review of Berlin Syndrome (2017)

By David Rooney (943) for Hollywood Reporter (2,966) on 23 Jan 2017

Driven by a compellingly internalized performance from Teresa Palmer as the conflicted prey, this is a case of expert filmmaking craft applied…

Review of A Ghost Story (2017)

By David Rooney (943) for The Hollywood Reporter (7,050) on 22 Jan 2017

The sense of time passing is hypnotic, and the image of the ghost, wounded and watching, unable to communicate or offer comfort, becomes more…

Review of Whose Streets? (2017)

By David Rooney (943) for Hollywood Reporter (2,966) on 20 Jan 2017

An emotionally charged account of the ongoing fight of the African-American community of Ferguson, Missouri, to be treated as equal citizens,…

Review of Howl's Moving Castle (2004)

By David Rooney (943) for Variety (12,700) on 29 Dec 2016

The tireless volley of ideas and inventions make this a delight that should connect with kids and adults in both dubbed and original-language…

Review of White Chicks (2004)

By David Rooney (943) for Variety (12,700) on 24 Dec 2016

As lowbrow comedies go, it pretty much delivers…

Review of Live by Night (2016)

By David Rooney (943) for The Hollywood Reporter (7,050) on 21 Dec 2016

Live By Night is solid enough entertainment, but it lacks the nasty edge or narrative muscularity to make it memorable…

Review of Collateral Beauty (2016)

By David Rooney (943) for Hollywood Reporter (2,966) on 13 Dec 2016

Audiences who enjoy smiling through tears, and don't mind having their buttons pushed in the most obvious ways, could probably do a lot worse…

Review of Allied (2016)

By David Rooney (943) for Hollywood Reporter (2,966) on 21 Nov 2016

Plodding and pedestrian even in the technical magic that is a Zemeckis trademark, this is a case of a director out of his element with a script…

Review of Best Worst Thing That Ever Could Have Happened... (2016)

By David Rooney (943) for The Hollywood Reporter (7,050) on 15 Nov 2016

The individual personalities that emerge in interviews both from back in 1981 and now, with the actors in their 50s, are often delightful,…

Review of Lazy Eye (2016)

By David Rooney (943) for The Hollywood Reporter (7,050) on 11 Nov 2016

This is a shallow snapshot of First World problems and feeble conflicts that makes you despair for the state of gay-themed drama, perhaps even…

Review of Weekend at Bernie's II (1993)

By David Rooney (943) for Variety (12,700) on 07 Nov 2016

A mildly diverting farcical caper…
