Along the way, they meet Prentice, a hitchhiker on his way home to […]
A slick, well-made musical adaptation that might not be perfect, but remains a classic nonetheless.
This forgotten gem is the perfect family movie. It stars Michael Caine and Robert Duvall as the two eccentric uncles of Walter, a shy city kid (played by Haley Joel Osment). When Walter moves in with his uncles in rural Texas, he first has a hard time adjusting to his new surroundings. However his routine is changed after […]
The original rom-com gets a modern update in this intimate and entertaining adaptation.
A dark comedy about failed British terrorists that mixes accuracy with hilariousness .
Elisabeth Moss is in it. Calling The One I Love a romantic-comedy, looking it up, or trusting anyone else about it — especially my review, will ruin this film for you. Just watch it. If one’s penchant is typically opposed to titles with ‘love’ in them, then it’s for you. Just hit ‘play’, or ‘start’, or whatever. The […]
A Canadian film with a title based off Cockney rhyming slang meaning “it’s all gone a bit wrong,” it’s All Gone Pete Tong is an offbeat and bleak comedy. Starring Paul Kaye as Frankie Wilde, a successful club DJ who begins to go deaf at the height of his fame. As news of his disability […]
A black and white movie, A Coffee in Berlin is an early Woody Allen reminiscent film with a great emphasis on the emotions it handles.

An action comedy tribute to the earnest and eccentric Nicolas Cage.
A really weird and also heartwarming movie about Frank, the leader and singer/songwriter of a crazy band. He really grows on you with his big head. If you like movies with that funky edge (like Scott Pilgrim) this is especially something for you! Either way and regardless of your preferences, you’ll find Frank to be a sweet, […]
Bruce Springsteen's music is a gateway from racism in this British comedy.
This is a star-packed movie about two brother assassins played by John C. Reilly and Joaquin Phoenix, and starring Jake Gyllenhaal. You might have read the book of the same name, and it is always hard to make a great film out of a great book but the brilliant director of A Prophet Jacques Audiard […]
You live in a strange world. Or at least, that’s what the generation before you thinks. Eight Grade is a movie that follows a girl going through her generation’s strange world. Social media, selfies, Youtube; you name it. But also, the weight of her expectations (as shaped by the internet) versus her reality. Written and […]
Filmed as a “found footage” of a Norwegian college film crew investigating local poachers, this movie really surprised me. To be fair, I didn’t really know what to expect. But I definitely didn’t expect to like this movie as much as I did. The pacing is on point. The suspense hits you at just the […]
A social experiment goes awry in this Oscar-winning, Mads Mikkelsen-led tragicomedy.
This movie is based on a true story and is about the longest mafia trial in American history. Jack Dinorscio, played by Vin Diesel, is a mobster who refuses to get a lawyer and decides to defend himself in court. This is a great funny, feel-good and heartwarming movie. It is in my opinion by […]
A sharp yet sweet comedy, Mother is a refreshingly clever entry into the dysfunctional family genre.
At the heart of this erotic drama lies a story about self-acceptance, radical vulnerability, and equal partnership—or, everything 50 Shades of Grey is not.
