By Ignatiy Vishnevetsky (836) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 08 Sep 2021

Review of Kate (2021)

By Charles Bramesco (223) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 03 Sep 2021

Review of Yakuza Princess (2021)

By Katie Rife (451) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 02 Sep 2021

Review of Worth (2021)

By Ignatiy Vishnevetsky (836) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 31 Aug 2021

Review of Patton (1970)

By Nathan Rabin (1,078) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 29 Aug 2021

A giant Rorschach blot of a film, Patton can be read any number of ways, from a sly satire of gung-ho militarism to an epic glorification of…

Review of He's All That (2021)

By Caroline Siede (75) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 27 Aug 2021

Review of Candyman (2021)

By Anya Stanley (15) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 25 Aug 2021

By Mike D'angelo (730) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 24 Aug 2021

Review of Sweet Girl (2021)

By Craig D. Lindsey (161) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 20 Aug 2021

Review of The Protégé (2021)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 19 Aug 2021

Beyond considerable physical presence, Q brings touches of subtlety to a stock character; by the time she makes her eventual, inevitable reference…

Review of Cryptozoo (2021)
