Aisha (2022)

Publish Date: May 9, 2024
"'Aisha' resists tidy answers through the gentle force of its performances and by staying on the rebuffs and uncertainty Aisha suffers"

The New York Times
Chicken for Linda! (2023)

Publish Date: April 4, 2024
"For all its playful color-block hues and deceptively casual illustrations, the movie delivers a sharp mix of pathos and humor"

The New York Times
Drylongso (1998)

Publish Date: March 16, 2024
"A vivid and prescient feature debut"

The New York Times
French Girl (2024)

Publish Date: March 14, 2024
"A clumsy love triangle rom-com (...) Writer-directors James A. Woods and Nicolas Wright get their Canadian setting right, but prove too eager to please with their genre tropes"

Variety
Mea Culpa (2024)

Publish Date: February 23, 2024
"The tagline of Tyler Perry’s new movie is 'everyone’s guilty of something,' but the responsibility for this willfully steamy, decidedly silly thriller is all his."

The New York Times
Igualada (2024)

Publish Date: January 27, 2024
"[It] is rousing and intimate, making for an often moving, sometimes nerve-wracking ride"

Variety
As We Speak: Rap Music on Trial (2024)

Publish Date: January 27, 2024
"With its academic interviewees and mini-histories, 'As We Speak' has the trappings of rigor. But not unlike its subject, the documentary’s power, beauty and complexity lie in Harper’s use of rhetoric and lyricism"

Variety
Suncoast (2024)

Publish Date: January 24, 2024
"An amiable ensemble effort, [but it] feels crowded with overworked moments that ask us to wrestle with terminal illness and the ethics of euthanasia (...) Chinn's choices are admirable and emotionally ambitious"

Variety
Daughters (2024)

Publish Date: January 23, 2024
"Natalie Rae and Angela Patton's moving film follows four girls as they head toward a date with their imprisoned fathers, adding depth and dimension to stories of incarceration"

Variety
Girls State (2024)

Publish Date: January 20, 2024
"How some of the young leaders in 'Girls State' not only handle but also leverage their disappointments provides one of the documentary's richest lessons"

Variety
Which Brings Me to You (2023)

Publish Date: January 18, 2024
"This rom-com boasts a clever conceit that at times feels a little cluttered."

The New York Times
Inshallah a Boy (2023)

Publish Date: January 11, 2024
"Hawa, a Palestinian actress, is commanding as a woman whose future and faith are buffeted by her narrowing options"

The New York Times
Beyond the Aggressives: 25 Years Later (2023)

Publish Date: November 16, 2023
"Several of the lesbians profiled in the 2005 documentary have since transitioned, but all remain as authentic as ever in Daniel Peddle’s powerful and tender sequel."

The New York Times
Beyond the Aggressives: 25 Years Later (2023)

Publish Date: November 16, 2023
"Daniel Peddle’s powerful and tender sequel"

The New York Times
This Much We Know (2022)

Publish Date: November 9, 2023
"As eloquent as it is, 'This Much We Know' may also be exploitative"

The New York Times
Another Body (2023)

Publish Date: October 19, 2023
"[It] raises its own ethical questions —ones that, even with the filmmakers' compassion and transparency, 'Another Body' doesn't quite resolve"

The New York Times
Silver Dollar Road (2023)

Publish Date: September 28, 2023
"The story of the Reels and 'Silver Dollar Road' offers the rural version of gentrification, in which families of modest means are priced out of their longtime homes and communities by unfettered, opportunistic development"

Variety
Invisible Beauty (2023)

Publish Date: September 14, 2023
"A bespoke documentary befitting a fashion industry force (...) In her revelatory documentary self-portrait, Black model-turned-catalyst Bethann Hardison continues to lead and dazzle on her own terms"

Variety
The Inventor (2023)

Publish Date: September 14, 2023
"'The Inventor' is rife with somewhat didactic lessons, yet a presumably unintended one might be that lessons themselves, however insightful, are not always captivating."

The New York Times
Our Body (2023)

Publish Date: August 3, 2023
"Simon's belief in the interconnectedness yet singularity of the varied patients is palpable. She rewards our patience with a deeper understanding of our bodies and ourselves"
