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

By Rodrigo Perez (382) for The Playlist (3,871) on 13 Dec 2021

Review of Red Notice (2021)

By Rodrigo Perez (382) for The Playlist (3,871) on 11 Nov 2021

Review of Eternals (2021)

By Rodrigo Perez (382) for The Playlist (3,871) on 24 Oct 2021

Review of The Harder They Fall (2021)

By Rodrigo Perez (382) for The Playlist (3,871) on 06 Oct 2021

Review of Venom: Let There Be Carnage (2021)

By Rodrigo Perez (382) for The Playlist (3,871) on 30 Sep 2021

Review of The Eyes of Tammy Faye (2021)

By Rodrigo Perez (382) for The Playlist (3,871) on 12 Sep 2021

Review of The Guilty (2021)

By Rodrigo Perez (382) for The Playlist (3,871) on 11 Sep 2021

Review of Dune (2021)

By Rodrigo Perez (382) for The Playlist (3,871) on 03 Sep 2021

Review of The Card Counter (2021)

By Rodrigo Perez (382) for The Playlist (3,871) on 02 Sep 2021

It’s truly a wild, blazing ride if you get on the movie’s bruising, mesmeric wavelength, a tragic but deeply moral film about a righteous,…

Review of The Hand of God (2021)

By Rodrigo Perez (382) for The Playlist (3,871) on 02 Sep 2021

It’s a lovely, charming, vibrant, sad, bildungsroman tale and roman-fleuve that pays small tribute to Maradona…

Review of Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings (2021)

By Rodrigo Perez (382) for The Playlist (3,871) on 23 Aug 2021

Review of Annette (2021)

By Rodrigo Perez (382) for The Playlist (3,871) on 06 Jul 2021

It’s an odd film and a fascinating one—narratively simplistic, artistically complex—at times ravishing and then puzzling, much like the…
