  • Liza: A Truly Terrific Absolutely True Story
    Review preview for Liza: A Truly Terrific Absolutely True Story

    If you don’t have a clear sense of who she is when you go in, you may come out feeling none the wiser.

    Jennie Kermode · 2.5 out of 5
    A documentary about Liza Minelli and the key individuals who influenced her career.
  • Vulcanizadora
    Review preview for Vulcanizadora

    Although its characters are middle aged, their childish games in the first half signal a kind of coming of age; and yet unlike most films on that theme, which end when childhood is left behind, it keeps us there to explore what it means to be an adult.

    Jennie Kermode · 4.5 out of 5
    Two friends embark on a disturbing mission in the Michigan woods. When their plan unravels, one must face the surreal and unsettling consequences back home.
  • A Desert
    Review preview for A Desert

    There’s a fantastically unhinged performance in here which it would be a spoiler to say too much about. Everyone is good at what they do.

    Jennie Kermode · 4.5 out of 5
    A photographer on a road trip meets a carefree young couple and finds himself in danger.
  • Swimming Home
    Review preview for Swimming Home

    A highly mannered approach, a staccato script and deliberate emotional distance mean that the drama never really comes alive, but the whole thing looks and sounds divine.

    Jennie Kermode · 2.5 out of 5
    The presence of a mysterious houseguest exposes subtle fractures in the marriage between a poet and a war correspondent.
  • Emergent City
    Review preview for Emergent City

    While there’s no doubt the directors have a sympathetic slant towards the community, this is a film that is interested in exploring all the angles.

    Amber Wilkinson · 4 out of 5
    A series of connected industrial buildings within a primarily immigrant, working class community in Brooklyn - conflicting views draw battlelines between residents, city officials and master planners as the fate of the city and contemporary urban development hangs in the balance.
  • She Loved Blossoms More
    Review preview for She Loved Blossoms More

    The spectacular visual effects are less a product of slick new technology than of pure imagination, and they really are unforgettable.

    Jennie Kermode · 3.5 out of 5
    Hoping to bring their dead mother back to life, three brothers build a time machine.
  • McVeigh
    Review preview for McVeigh

    Ott’s interest is not in creating an accurate depiction of exactly what happened in the run-up to the Oklahoma City bombing, but rather in exploring the thought processes behind it.

    Jennie Kermode · 4.5 out of 5
    Over days and nights, McVeigh eats, sleeps, watches the news, meets a girl… all while inside his mind brews an unthinkable plan that will forever change the collective American psyche.
  • Boys Go To Jupiter
    Review preview for Boys Go To Jupiter

    Though likely a little too whimsical for some, Boys Go To Jupiter seems destined to develop a cult following.

    Jennie Kermode · 4 out of 5
    Suburban Florida is transformed into a 3D animated wonderland in this musical comedy.
  • Restless
    Review preview for Restless

    [Hart] doesn’t turn up the volume, but uses tone and repetition so effectively that the film becomes a microcosm of the real experience.

    Jennie Kermode · 2.5 out of 5
    The banal life of a middle-aged empty nester is violently shaken in the blink of an eye when hard-partying - and potentially dangerous - new neighbours move in next door.
  • Luther: Never Too Much
    Review preview for Luther: Never Too Much

    It might be too much to expect a film to tell a bigger story, but that hope is borne in part because it doesn't really manage to tell a smaller one.

    Andrew Robertson · 2 out of 5
    Luther Vandross started his career supporting David Bowie, Roberta Flack, Bette Midler, and more. His undeniable talent earned platinum records and accolades, but he struggled to break out beyond the R&B charts. Intensely driven, he overcame personal and professional challenges to secure his place amongst the greatest vocalists in history.
