A struggling Indigenous actor tries to rejuvenate his career by getting a sequel made to the beloved film Smoke Signals, in star and director Cody Lightning’s wildly funny debut mockumentary.
An evocative, drawn-from-life tale from directors Carol Kunnuk and Lucy Tulugarjuk about two siblings’ attempts to heal and overcome trauma during the pandemic.
This gorgeous and bizarre Yorgos Lanthimos film, at once a coming-of-age drama and a sex comedy, stars Emma Stone, Mark Ruffalo, Ramy Youssef, Kathryn Hunter, and Willem Dafoe.
"You're worried about a relationship while you're freezing on a door? I think you got to worry about surviving. Drop the dead weight and you'll live."
After fleeing civil war in Liberia, a formerly-privileged refugee (Cynthia Erivo, Wicked Part 1, Widows) is barely scraping by in her new life in Greece when she strikes up an unexpected friendship with a rootless tour guide (Alia Shawkat, 20th Century Women, Green Room).
Greta Gerwig’s (Lady Bird, Little Women) wildly successful film follows a self-aware Mattel toy (Margot Robbie, The Wolf of Wall Street, Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood) who leaves the matriarchal paradise of Barbieland for the less female-friendly Real World — with all the disappointment, sexism, and self-doubt that follows.

While a great biopic, this will probably fall in the bottom half of Nolan's filmography, which is more a testament to the quality of his work. Great performances by the entire cast, and I loved to see Nolan make something a bit smaller scale this time, even if the subject matter was about as big as it gets.
It's a weird movie in that while it ostensibly is about Oppenheimer, it is in it's own way a disaster movie, concerned with the end of the world, just an end that hasn't happened quite yet.
Literally the best movie ever. No, not a movie. Cinematic experience. This is a film like no other.
A film like this one being as big as it is almost feels like a miracle, especially when it seems like the biggest movies of the past few years are always based on an established property (even this year, Barbie and The Super Mario Bros. Movie fit this bill perfectly). But Oppenheimer feels like it's a whole other thing entirely - the sort that I didn't think Christopher Nolan was capable of even though I'd already found him to be…
