33 Movies Like Burning (2018)

Called a masterpiece by many, you are likely to decide to watch this twisted, sexy South-Korean thriller twice. .

Awkwafina shines in this complex culture clash comedy. .

The Cannes-winning saga from one of Japan's most exciting directors: Hirokazu Koreeda. .

When asked about starring in First Reformed, Ethan Hawke said it’s the kind of role he would have never dared to audition for 10 years ago. This is coming from the same goatee icon who did Gattaca 22 years ago, and Training Day 18 years ago. Needless to say that his performance in this movie is exceptional, and we hope that it will be rewarded with an Oscar. The film centers around his character, a reverend of a church in New York, who is trying to help a couple with marital issues (deciding the fate of a pregnancy). Instead, he uncovers a deeper story and becomes unexpectedly involved. Religion intersects with ethical questions on activism, abortion, and environmental issues. I know that sounds like a lot, but First Reformed delivers on everything. The writing by Paul Schrader is delicate yet ensures that the movie keeps a gripping pace.

The Amazing Successor to Winter's Bone.

Japanese mastermind Koreeda's plotless exploration of grief.
