At the latest movie reviews, in one tidy place.
Let Him Go (2020)
Some viewers might find its beginning too muted and its ending too gory, but I found most of it to be just right.
Little Fish (2020)
Little Fish is a wonderful film that reminds us just how much who we are is defined by where we’ve been and who went with us a long the way.
Buddy Games (2020)

I suppose the only good thing about this withering saga of bullies and jerkwads is that it eventually ends.
The Little Things (2021)

This is two-thirds of a decent movie, the rest of which strands a powerhouse cast.
News of the World (2020)





Unlike many modern Westerns, which busy themselves with reinventing the genre or tearing down the mythos of frontier life, News just delivers a good old-fashioned movie.
Promising Young Woman (2020)





Promising Young Woman’s style may not be for all tastes, but hidden within its unique comedy is a message everybody needs to hear.
Acasa, My Home (2020)





Acasa is one of those rare films that raises difficult questions, and never promises any answers, if the answers even exist at all.
Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom (2020)

Music flows through Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom like a conduit, conducting the passion, pain, and pride of all the characters who play it.
Hillbilly Elegy (2020) 

Ultimately, the story never attains the dramatic lift for which it aspires, and the result is a movie that rings surprisingly hollow.
