Review of Polar (2019)

By Emily Yoshida (237) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 23 Jan 2019

If only the issue with Polar, Åkerlund’s fifth feature film, was merely shallowness…

Review of Polar (2019)

By Emily Yoshida (237) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 23 Jan 2019

If only the issue with Polar, Åkerlund’s fifth feature film, was merely shallowness…

Review of The Upside (2019)

By Emily Yoshida (237) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 11 Jan 2019

That more or less is The Upside in a nutshell…

Review of American Hangman (2019)

By Emily Yoshida (237) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 07 Jan 2019

American Hangman, a bar thought experiment turned into a film every bit as simple and bad-taste-leaving as that would imply, only has use for…

Review of Stan & Ollie (2018)

By Emily Yoshida (237) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 26 Dec 2018

This is too sunny a production to linger too long in the dark corners; even Laurel’s alcoholism is treated with a light touch when it comes…

Review of Bird Box (2018)

By Emily Yoshida (237) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 23 Dec 2018

You don’t appreciate the art of a good genre contrivance until you see one pulled off poorly…

Review of Second Act (2018)

By Emily Yoshida (237) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 20 Dec 2018

The contemporary nostalgia for romantic comedies is understandable (even if I do not personally share it), as is the nostalgia for Jennifer…

Review of Welcome to Marwen (2018)

By Emily Yoshida (237) for New York Magazine/Vulture (3,519) on 19 Dec 2018

Welcome to Marwen is a totally confounding movie…

Review of Aquaman (2018)

By Emily Yoshida (237) for New York Magazine/Vulture (3,519) on 11 Dec 2018

Aquaman’s as formulaic, excessively thrashy, and mommy-obsessed as any other entry in the DCEU, but its visual imagination is genuinely exciting…

Review of Mortal Engines (2018)

By Emily Yoshida (237) for New York Magazine/Vulture (3,519) on 11 Dec 2018

Like all good YA fantasy, it’s rooted in earnest adolescent anxieties, and dresses them up with the same level of earnestness…

Review of Tyrel (2018)

By Emily Yoshida (237) for New York Magazine/Vulture (3,519) on 07 Dec 2018

It’s painful, paranoiac stuff, and your heart breaks for Tyler, who feels increasingly trapped among a crew of rowdy, drunk, irreverent white…

Review of Vox Lux (2018)

By Emily Yoshida (237) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 07 Dec 2018

As a story of popular art born in the crucible of violent trauma, it’s a fantastic, wildly ambitious idea; as a filmed drama with human characters,…

Review of Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018)

By Emily Yoshida (237) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 07 Dec 2018

Much like the first Lego Movie, Spider-Verse feels like a bit of a conceptual dare, but it wins with its nano-second sharp timing, and percussive…

Review of Mary Queen of Scots (2018)

By Emily Yoshida (237) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 06 Dec 2018

It’s neither a rigorous history lesson nor a particularly interesting work of drama and character, and it ends up doing the exact same things…

Review of The Girl Who Leapt Through Time (2006)

By Emily Yoshida (237) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 01 Dec 2018

As the encounters stack up, though, the impact of what Hosoda is starting to do starts to cohere, and it’s pretty effective stuff…

Review of Mirai (2018)

By Emily Yoshida (237) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 01 Dec 2018

As the encounters stack up, though, the impact of what Hosoda is starting to do starts to cohere, and it’s pretty effective stuff…

Review of Robin Hood (2018)

By Emily Yoshida (237) for New York Magazine/Vulture (3,519) on 21 Nov 2018

Even on a technical level, Robin Hood is impossible to follow anywhere…

Review of The Clovehitch Killer (2018)

By Emily Yoshida (237) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 20 Nov 2018

It’s convincing because it’s not terribly sensationalized, and the film’s conclusion is similarly smart, completely pulling the rug out…

Review of Jinn (2018)

By Emily Yoshida (237) for New York Magazine/Vulture (3,519) on 15 Nov 2018

For the most part, Mu’min’s script is pleasantly inquisitive, and its refusal to arrive at easy answers is its engine…

Review of Ralph Breaks the Internet (2018)

By Emily Yoshida (237) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 14 Nov 2018

If Wreck-It Ralph was a film about jobs and self-image, the addition of commerce into that equation in its sequel makes everything exponentially…
