Parasite
This South Korean masterpiece isn’t the flashiest first watch, but with time to digest its thoughtful and precise filmmaking it reveals itself to be worthy of its acclaim.
Ford v Ferrari
An auto racing movie with so-so racing but excellent everything else.
Love & Sex
This movie about personal romantic history has all the storytelling flair of an anthropologist’s doctoral thesis.
Table 19
Misleading marketing, disappointing movie.
Defendor
A deconstructed superhero movie without a point.
Knives Out
An amazingly fun, genre defying who-done-it with plenty of exciting twists and turns on the way to its conclusion.
Giant
A sprawling western whose ambitious scope is the source of both its best and worst qualities.
Nurse Betty
This movie gambles on some bold choices, none of which come up winners.
This Is England
A better than average indie with a strong, thematically driven story but only so-so technical artistry.
Heartbreak Ridge
An atypical war movie with a strong central performance and not much else.
Made
This comedic crime drama is light on all three.
Fisherman’s Friends
A harmless and forgettable take on the unlikely success of a unique British music act.
