Love, Simon
The more you like a flick, the more it’ll potentially influence you. And Love, Simon aims to influence.
The Hurricane Heist
I think we can all agree that actioners like The Hurricane Heist major in what we might call “the unbelievable factor.”
The Strangers: Prey at Night
This horror flick is exactly what you think it is: would-be killers chasing around would-be victims with sharp things.
Gringo
This dark comedy paints its supposed hero’s south-of-the-border torments in crude and nasty brush strokes.
Thoroughbreds
Thoroughbreds uses its detached female leads to unfold a slow-boiling commentary on our emotionally damaged society.
Death Wish
Death Wish suggests that society’s most troubling issues can best be addressed by the blazing barrel of a vigilante’s gun.
Red Sparrow
This film is emotionally raw, sometimes gruesome, and scattered with wince-inducing interactions.
Game Night
Along with its madcap mishaps, Game Night also slaps viewers upside the head with some less-than-savory stuff.
Every Day
Romantically minimizing the profound reality of gender, as this film does, is a recipe for confusion and heartache.
Annihilation
There’s a lot going on in Annihilation—a tense, freaky, bloody sci-fi rumination on the cyclical nature of life, death and rebirth.
