Review of The Misfits (2021)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 09 Jun 2021

The Misfits has moments of silliness that bear glancing resemblance to the kind of enjoyable starry, big-studio shlock Renny Harlin used to…

Review of Holler (2021)

By Katie Rife (451) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 09 Jun 2021

Review of The Amusement Park (1975)

By A.a. Dowd (854) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 08 Jun 2021

The Amusement Park passes in a deranged blur; it’s a glorified PSA made with the means (and in the spirit of) antagonistic outsider art…

Review of Undine (2021)

By Mike D'angelo (730) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 02 Jun 2021

What’s atypically clumsy here is Petzold’s effort to synthesize big ideas: Not only is the architectural metaphor overstated and the mythological…

Review of Slow Machine (2021)

By Vikram Murthi (112) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 02 Jun 2021

Review of Spirit Untamed (2021)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 01 Jun 2021

Though it’s nominally liberated from its TV backstory, Spirit Untamed could still have benefited from a little more freedom…

Review of All Light, Everywhere (2021)

By Lawrence Garcia (34) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 01 Jun 2021

All Light, Everywhere is about both making and questioning connections, but by the end, its methods feel not so much productively protean as…

Review of Swimming Out Till the Sea Turns Blue (2021)

By Ignatiy Vishnevetsky (836) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 27 May 2021

Across the extended, handsomely shot sit-down interviews (with Ma’s daughter and the three other writers), what emerges is a fragmentary…

Review of Cruella (2021)

By Katie Rife (451) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 26 May 2021

A love of pure aesthetics will help anyone looking to appreciate the movie, whose sets and costumes are as indulgent as its soundtrack…

Review of Oslo (2021)

By Roxana Hadadi (336) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 25 May 2021

What results is a very Western-specific view of this conflict and of the Oslo Accords that doesn’t embody the “both sides” approach the…

Review of F9 (2021)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 25 May 2021

The movie’s deference to Diesel’s whims, sincerity, and ego all at once is part of its charm—though perhaps a smaller share of it here…

Review of Plan B (2021)

By Caroline Siede (75) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 25 May 2021

Review of Seance (2021)

By Katie Rife (451) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 19 May 2021
