Dirty Pretty Things

It is often said that America is a "melting pot." Judging by director Stephen Frears' unconventional portrait of life in London, the U.K. is just as much a bubbling cauldron as its former colonies. Since the 20th century, every major city acro...

Gemini Man

While the makers of Gemini Man may have had aspirations for this to begin a new sci-fi action franchise, the would-be series doesn’t get off to the most inspiring of starts. At its best, the movie feels like a superhero/spy movie hybrid with...

Nine Days

Edson Oda’s debut feature, Nine Days, is a pure allegory; the film works as an extended philosophical rumination but fails as a story. Although interesting in many aspects, Nine Days is as often frustrating as it is compelling, and the denou...

Raya and the Last Dragon

Distilled to its essence, Raya and the Last Dragon could best be called “quintessential Disney” in that it incorporates many of the tropes viewers have come to associate with the Magic Kingdom’s generic animated films. Although the film�...
