The Reason I Jump (2020) 97% EDIT “A valuable and compelling addition to the growing canon of features and documentaries on the subject because of the ways it prioritises the perspectives of autistic individuals and their families. ” – Sight & Sound May 14, 2026 Full Review The Fever (2019) 91% EDIT “Da-Rin’s poignant and pointed film doesn’t let viewers forget about the pain, injustice and devastation happening around him.” – Sight & Sound May 13, 2026 Full Review Wild Foxes (2025) 94% EDIT “In this poignant story of a teen athlete ostracised by his teammates after a traumatising accident, Belgian director Valéry Carnoy captures the volatile nature of adolescent masculinity with striking empathy. ” – Sight & Sound Apr 24, 2026 Full Review Io Capitano (2023) 96% EDIT “The film is also rescued from its more precious and sentimental excesses by the power and complexity of Sarr’s central performance. ” – Sight & Sound Dec 31, 2025 Full Review Gasoline Rainbow (2023) 93% EDIT “There’s something magical about the warmth, love and generosity the five express to one another, and radiate outward toward the others they encounter – and the film’s audience.” – Sight & Sound Dec 31, 2025 Full Review Allen Sunshine (2024) EDIT “Then again, the fact that the rambunctious youngsters seem to have wandered in from a summer-camp movie evidently shooting nearby only serves to accentuate the fundamental Canadian-ness of Chamandy’s largely endearing debut. ” – Sight & Sound Nov 11, 2025 Full Review The Contestant (2023) 92% EDIT “A largely sober tone allows The Contestant to avoid the kitsch that the subject of Japan’s extreme brand of TV competitions typically attracts. ” – Sight & Sound Nov 11, 2025 Full Review Matt and Mara (2024) 87% EDIT “Even at a briskly paced 80 minutes, Matt and Mara manages to be remarkably astute about its central relationship’s cocktail of suppressed desire and professional envy. ” – Sight & Sound Nov 6, 2025 Full Review Dog Man (2025) 82% EDIT “Peter Hastings’s movie incarnation of the popular graphic novel series presents a cheerful whirlwind of goofball gags, silly puns and moments of real poignancy in an endearing, unpolished package. ” – Sight & Sound Nov 6, 2025 Full Review The Naked Gun (2025) 87% EDIT “Akiva Schaffer’s police-procedural reboot is refreshingly silly and expertly paced, with Liam Neeson and Pamela Anderson fully committing to the bit. ” – Sight & Sound Nov 4, 2025 Full Review Apocalypse Now Redux (1979) 93% EDIT “Despite its commercial success, it was perhaps the last grand artistic folly that Hollywood would tolerate, and a golden age of American filmmaking soon stumbled to a close.” – eye WEEKLY Sep 22, 2024 Full Review Lost Angel: The Genius of Judee Sill (2022) 92% 4/5 EDIT “Directors Andy Brown and Brian Lindstrom... create something that attains the same grace and beauty heard in Sill’s music.” – Uncut Magazine [UK] Oct 26, 2023 Full Review Sisu (2022) 94% EDIT “For all the pleasure viewers may take in the sight of nameless Nazis being dispatched and dismembered, they may be surprised by the film’s solemnity, too.” – Sight & Sound Jun 8, 2023 Full Review Aftersun (2022) 96% EDIT “The Situationists and the Sex Pistols may have had nothing good to say about cheap holidays in other people’s misery, but Wells finds a wealth of beauty and heartache in this one.” – Cinema Scope Feb 16, 2023 Full Review The Decalogue (1989) 100% 5/5 EDIT “The original series of 10 hour-long films has all of the qualities that mark Kieslowski's better-known work.” – eye WEEKLY May 1, 2021 Full Review The Hitcher (2007) 19% 2/4 EDIT “Viewers looking for more than a few secondhand thrills should drive right past The Hitcher.” – Globe and Mail Apr 27, 2020 Full Review The Man From Mo'Wax (2016) 77% EDIT “While The Man from Mo' Wax follows a conventional doc structure as it charts its subject's rise, fall and last-act resurgence, Jones finds more inventive ways of framing Lavelle's saga.” – Sight & Sound Dec 28, 2018 Full Review Her Smell (2018) 83% EDIT “Moss ultimately has the chance to dial it down and reveal unexpected layers to Becky, a woman who lives too fast because living any slower means feeling paralyzed by fear and need.” – Cinema Scope Sep 10, 2018 Full Review Sweet Country (2017) 96% EDIT “Sweet Country's complexity and sophistication mark it as a landmark work of Indigenous cinema.” – Sight & Sound Mar 13, 2018 Full Review Chop Shop (2007) 97% EDIT “” – Cinema Scope Jan 30, 2018 Full Review Beyond the Black Rainbow (2011) 61% EDIT “For devotees of science-fiction cinema at its most synapse-frying and voluptuously horrifying, the mother lode is exactly what [writer/director Panos] Cosmatos delivers.” – Cinema Scope Jan 30, 2018 Full Review The End of Time (2012) 78% EDIT “At the end of these many and varied travels, we arrive at a film that is Mettler's most readily engaging since Picture of Light...” – Cinema Scope Jan 30, 2018 Full Review The Oxbow Cure (2013) EDIT “” – Cinema Scope Jan 30, 2018 Full Review Asphalt Watches (2013) EDIT “Of course, it all goes on way, way too long, but no story that involves a cross-Canada trek could ever feel authentic without stretches of ass-numbing tedium.” – Cinema Scope Jan 30, 2018 Full Review October November (2013) EDIT “Alas, a similarly high calibre of acting skill proves to be the only real virtue of October November, a disappointingly drab and shapeless drama that has little of its predecessors' power.” – Cinema Scope Jan 30, 2018 Full Review
