Love Trap 

Kate Winslet and Saorise Ronan deliver stellar performances in a film that doesn't live up to its potential.

Paul Thomas Anderson blends tragedy, comedy in 2025 epic, "One Battle After Another."

'The Menu' has a strong story. The 5 acts, which are defined by the courses, are an excellent subversion of the classic 5-act film structure.

The Invitation takes a creeping look at two simple premises: reuniting with forgotten friends and new-age spiritualism.

'Pariah' tells a powerful, mesmerizing, and unflinchingly honest story of identity.

"Warrior" is a Bruce Lee written and inspired story that follows a diverse cast of Chinese American characters and does a terrific job of setting the story in 1878 San Francisco - all without pulling their punches with the systemic racism, discrimination, and struggle for power that old and young immigrants that crossed the country at that time had to go through.
