Review of YES DAY (2021)

By Jacob Oller (247) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 12 Mar 2021

It’s a lightweight film befitting its premise’s “good vibes only” origins—and its uninspiring construction makes its solid performances…

Review of Boss Level (2021)

By Jacob Oller (247) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 05 Mar 2021

Rather than embracing its premise’s unique potential, Boss Level mires it in tropes and convention…

Review of Erēmīta (Anthologies) (2021)

By Jacob Oller (247) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 01 Mar 2021

Eremita (Anthologies) offers bursts of such inspired and inhibited strangeness in an uneven assessment of life, documenting this specific period…

Review of Raya and the Last Dragon (2021)

By Jacob Oller (247) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 01 Mar 2021

A splendid showcase for Tran, a lead duo of inventive and endearing original characters, and a big final swing make Disney’s tour through…

Review of Cherry (2021)

By Jacob Oller (247) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 25 Feb 2021

While the Russos and Holland clearly want to break out of their professional boxes, pulverizing this film with their big swings, Cherry is a bomb…

Review of I Care a Lot (2021)

By Jacob Oller (247) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 19 Feb 2021

Some of the film’s punchy dialogue pops us on the nose now and again with its Themes (specifically its notes on sexism and the American Dream),…

Review of Flora & Ulysses (2021)

By Jacob Oller (247) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 19 Feb 2021

While a little dark and a little unsteady—and boxed in a bit by the limitations of its genre—Flora & Ulysses still hits most of the right…

Review of Sator (2019)

By Jacob Oller (247) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 12 Feb 2021

Sator’s dedication to its own nuanced premise, location and tense pace make it the rare horror that’s so aesthetically well-realized you…

Review of The Wanting Mare (2021)

By Jacob Oller (247) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 05 Feb 2021

It may not be a must-see movie for everyone, but a select few—scrappy DIY filmmakers, lovers of hands-off fantasy, those that love a good…

Review of A Glitch in the Matrix (2021)

By Jacob Oller (247) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 03 Feb 2021

While not compelling enough to be one of the two options—either a destructive or awakening force for our own personal simulations—winkingly…

Review of Some Kind of Heaven (2021)

By Jacob Oller (247) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 19 Jan 2021

All this seriousness about love, loss and the human needs that start up early and continue until the end aren’t without a sense of fun…

Review of Locked Down (2021)

By Jacob Oller (247) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 13 Jan 2021

Locked Down is a crushing miscalculation on every level that should’ve stayed locked up…

Review of Locked Down (2021)

By Jacob Oller (247) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 13 Jan 2021

Locked Down is a crushing miscalculation on every level that should’ve stayed locked up…

Review of LOCKED DOWN (2021)

By Jacob Oller (247) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 13 Jan 2021

Locked Down is a crushing miscalculation on every level that should’ve stayed locked up…

Review of The White Tiger (2021)

By Jacob Oller (247) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 05 Jan 2021

Though the filmmaking is perfectly competent and sometimes engaging, these moments where things click in a way that doesn’t feel like a teacher…

Review of Soul (2020)

By Jacob Oller (247) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 29 Dec 2020

Soul stuffs its playful optimism into a simple message and delivers it with colorful, endearing beauty…

Review of Ma Rainey's Black Bottom (2020)

By Jacob Oller (247) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 23 Dec 2020

Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom is more than Boseman’s performance, sure, with Davis and Domingo going on some delicious tears of their own and…

Review of Mank (2020)

By Jacob Oller (247) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 10 Dec 2020

Mank might not nearly live up to its subject’s crowning achievement, but it’s still a dense and enjoyable cinematic rant that would make…

Review of Hillbilly Elegy (2020)

By Jacob Oller (247) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 25 Nov 2020

While most of the film is simply mediocre-to-bad melodrama with a questionably conservative bent to its messaging, some elements stand out…

Review of Feels Good Man (2020)

By Jacob Oller (247) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 22 Oct 2020
