Escaping Reality in Anora (2024)

June 23, 2026

As a huge fan of Sean Baker’s Tangerine, The Florida Project, and Red Rocket, I’ve wanted to watch Anora since before it even was released. But life got in the way, my watchlist grew, and honestly, the fact that it was marketed as a romantic comedy put me off. Even with all the critical praise and the five Academy Awards it won last year, I just kept postponing it indefinitely.

When Netflix added it last week, I finally took the plunge and watched it. Now I realize that I’ve been letting my genre bias keep me away from what is easily one of the best films of the last ten years. And while I’m aware I might look down on romantic comedies because they're usually riddled with clichés, I’ve never held any prejudice against sex workers, who are always at the heart of Sean Baker’s stories.

"Nobody 2 is Ridiculous in All the Right Ways"

“Nobody 2” is the kind of sequel you expect to roll your eyes at—and then end up grinning through the whole thing. Bob Odenkirk proves once again that an ordinary-looking guy can be the most entertaining action hero alive, battling cartels with harpoons, deep fryers, and pure chaos. Toss in Sharon Stone as a delightfully over-the-top villain, and you’ve got 89 minutes of wild, joyful mayhem that reminds you why going to the movies is just plain fun.
