13 64% Nimona (2023) - Rated 13 May 2024
"Netflix's "Nimona" is a refreshing animated film with stylistic flair and strong vocal performances. Despite some tonal inconsistencies and hit-or-miss jokes, the movie showcases thoughtful character animation, effective cinematography, and an enjoyable musical score. A competent and well-realized effort that stands out among recent animated releases. 6.5/10"
12% Wish (2023) - Rated 13 May 2024
"Disney's "Wish" is a visually jarring musical with poorly motivated songs and forgettable characters. Despite some competent voice acting, the story is bland and uninteresting. The film's attempt at a distinct visual style falls flat, and the constant references to other Disney properties feel out of place. A disappointing addition to Disney's catalogue. 3/10"
3% Elemental (2023) - Rated 13 May 2024
"Worst Pixar film. Lacks charm, engaging story, interesting characters, or humor. Ugly character designs, bad voice acting, bland universe. Poorly written humor and dialogue. Badly motivated narrative. Tries and fails to be an allegory for prejudice against immigrants."
19 91% The Zone of Interest (2023) - Rated 13 May 2024
"Refreshing, non-exploitative Holocaust film that engages intellectually. Fantastic performances, cinematography, and score. Takes risks that pay off in a resonant, thought-provoking experience. Incredible, haunting film. Purposeful, unique visual style and storytelling. Strong writing, directing and acting. 9.5/10"
10 30% The Holdovers (2023) - Rated 13 May 2024
"Formulaic, cliched, and insincere Oscar bait despite good performances. Long, predictable and boring. Obvious alcohol product placements. Paul Giamatti and Da'Vine Joy Randolph give great performances. Nice '70s film look but nothing standout about the editing. . Forgettable and unnecessary 5/10."
20 96% Poor Things (2023) - Rated 12 May 2024
""Poor Things" may be Lanthimos' best. Absurdist tone, stunning visuals, masterful color, and memorable score create a captivating experience. Explores ideas thoughtfully. Stone, Dafoe, Ruffalo excel. Bold cinematography immerses viewer in a stylized world. A meaningful, original standout and a must-see. 10/10."
12 51% Oppenheimer (2023) - Rated 12 May 2024
"Engaging double feature experience seeing Oppenheimer and Barbie back-to-back. Strong performances, especially from Cillian Murphy in the lead role Visually impressive, especially in 70mm IMAX format Powerful musical score, though at times cliched or overused. Ambitious artistic choices that don't always land. Overly long at 3 hours; becomes repetitive Overall a mixed bag with impressive elements but pacing issues Rating: 6/10"
20 96% Tár (2022) - Rated 12 May 2024
"Tár is an incredible slow-burn character study anchored by a phenomenal lead performance from Cate Blanchett. The writing, cinematography, and direction ooze authenticity as the intriguing story unfolds over 2 hours 38 minutes. A unique film that subtly changes genres and invites repeat viewings to uncover its layered details. rating: 10/10"
8% Maestro (2023) - Rated 12 May 2024
"Terrible, boring, narcissistic film that feels like a parody of Oscar bait. No likable characters or chemistry. Irritating experience that adds nothing of value despite thinking highly of itself. Doesn't deserve its nominations. 2/10"
11 41% Killers of the Flower Moon (2023) - Rated 12 May 2024
"Good but overlong and repetitive period piece that doesn't justify its 3.5 hour runtime. Some great elements like the performances, directing, and production design, but held back by uneven pacing, tone, and sloppy audio editing. 5.5/10 rating."
