Review of Mektoub, My Love: Canto Uno (2018)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Film Comment Magazine (842) on 08 Mar 2018

[Abdellatif Kechiche] seems unable to focus on the essence of the non-story he tells, which seems to circle restlessly, its concentration constantly…

Review of Quest (2017)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Film Comment Magazine (842) on 08 Mar 2018

Ordinariness-and [Jonathan] Olshefski's ordinary, level-headed approach to documenting their life-is the keynote of this intensely moving and…

Review of Murder on the Orient Express (2017)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Film Comment Magazine (842) on 08 Mar 2018

[Kenneth Branagh] doesn't bring much new to the basic conception-a bunch of famous actors play eccentrics cooped up on a train, with secrets…

Review of Rey (2017)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Film Comment Magazine (842) on 08 Mar 2018

Rey is a bold, freakish marvel, a bottle in the ocean of cinema, but worth cracking open-it contains not one message but a whole mass of them,…

Review of Barrage (2017)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Film Comment Magazine (842) on 08 Mar 2018

The film's title comes from a dam on the nearby river; it's also a tennis term, match de barrage meaning playoff…

Review of Call Me by Your Name (2017)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Film Comment Magazine (842) on 08 Mar 2018

The characters' beauty and intellectual perfection is so consummate that I couldn't entirely believe that these people actually had genitals-that…

Review of The Snowman (2017)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Film Comment Magazine (842) on 08 Mar 2018

This film may well be the last gasp of Scandi-noir for the international market...this phase of Nordic has gone from original to dutiful emulation…

Review of Blade Runner 2049 (2017)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Film Comment Magazine (842) on 08 Mar 2018

If every new film made today is to a greater or lesser degree an echo box of past possibilities, what's notable is how much Villeneuve gives…

Review of Thor: Ragnarok (2017)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Film Comment Magazine (842) on 08 Mar 2018

When I saw this film prefaced by a trailer for the far glossier-looking Black Panther, it slightly felt, once Thor: Ragnarok started, that…

Review of Phantom Thread (2017)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Film Comment Magazine (842) on 02 Mar 2018

Krieps…

Review of The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Independent on Sunday (201) on 28 Feb 2018

This atavistic Christians-vs-Moors narrative doesn't belong in the present day, and that's no doubt why so many people are addicted to it…

Review of A Beautiful Mind (2001)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Independent on Sunday (201) on 28 Feb 2018

Ultimately the message is banal and rather repellent: brainwork wrecks your health…

Review of The Departed (2006)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Independent on Sunday (201) on 27 Feb 2018

If you like Scorsese, or if you just like thrillers, you'll have a good time…

Review of Songwriter (2018)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Observer (UK) (2,398) on 25 Feb 2018

While we learn little of interest about Sheeran himself, the film is arguably a thoroughgoing demystification of the industrial process behind…

Review of 7 Days in Entebbe (2018)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for The Guardian (2,969) on 23 Feb 2018

“Surprise and speed is the key,” someone comments at one point; the only surprise is how unspeedy and unsurprising this project turned out to be…

Review of Unsane (2018)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Screen International (2,241) on 21 Feb 2018

Admirers of Soderbergh’s experimental tendency will applaud the film’s execution – it was shot on the iPhone 7 Plus – while this story…

Review of Damsel (2018)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Guardian (4,584) on 16 Feb 2018

Damsel doesn’t go quite where we think it will, but then, surprise detours are rather to be expected in this kind of anti-quest story, and…

Review of Isle of Dogs (2018)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for The Guardian (2,969) on 15 Feb 2018

There is so much detail in the breakneck race from image to image that Isle of Dogs will reward multiple viewings as much as any Anderson film,…

Review of Scarred Hearts (2016)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Film Comment Magazine (842) on 21 Nov 2017

Despite its bleak theme, the film brims with anarchic life…

Review of The Killing of a Sacred Deer (2017)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Sight and Sound (827) on 03 Nov 2017

This is a ruthlessly controlled drama that achieves its powerful effect by holding back when its dramatic content is most intense…
