Every so often, a film comes along that lingers. Not like a cheerful aftertaste, but like a faint echo you can’t quite shake. Sujo is one of those films. It doesn’t leap off the screen with dazzling visuals or bombastic storytelling. Instead, it creeps in, quietly staking its claim on your thoughts and emotions long…
There’s a peculiar charm to films that seem old and new at the same time, as though they’re straddling two eras, holding fast to the grit of the past while teasing something fresh out of the well-worn. Day of the Fight sits squarely in this peculiar middle, a boxing movie that doesn’t try to dodge…
Sometimes, a movie doesn’t quite let you settle in your seat. It grips, jostles, and leaves you a little unsure of where you stand by the time the credits roll. That’s Hounds in a nutshell—a gritty debut by director Kamal Lazraq that takes you deep into the shadowy, chaotic streets of Casablanca. It’s visceral, moody,…
Movies about life’s growing pains often fall into two categories: the overly saccharine crowd-pleasers or the brooding, introspective think-pieces. But every now and then, a film strikes a rare balance, tapping into the everyday chaos of being human with humor and heart. Cooper Raiff’s Cha Cha Real Smooth is that kind of movie—a tender, disarmingly…
Sometimes, a film sneaks up on you—not with a roar, but with a whisper. Hala is one of those films. Directed by Minhal Baig, it’s a coming-of-age story that invites you to sit quietly, lean in, and observe the delicate balance of a teenage girl’s life unraveling and coming together. It doesn’t demand attention with…
Sometimes a movie sneaks up on you, breaking through the noise of overly polished Hollywood productions to deliver something real. Silver Linings Playbook is one of those movies. It’s a wild, messy, and at times overwhelming piece of storytelling that feels less like a scripted narrative and more like stepping into someone else’s chaotic life…
There’s something arresting about Joel Coen’s The Tragedy of Macbeth. It creeps under your skin, not with jumps or scares but with a slow, unrelenting dread. The black-and-white cinematography pulls you into a world that feels both ancient and painfully immediate, where ambition twists hearts and consequences can’t be outrun. You feel the weight of…
If cinema has a soul, Martin Scorsese has spent decades searching for it, peeling back layers of humanity’s best and worst to reveal something timeless, raw, and unnervingly true. His latest opus, Killers of the Flower Moon, is more than a film—it’s a relentless, nearly spiritual confrontation with the deep-rooted sins of history. It’s also…
There’s something about Dopesick that sinks its teeth into you—not in the way you might expect from a drama about the opioid crisis. It doesn’t just tell a story; it demands you live in it. Every frame, every tear, every moment of quiet devastation presses down, leaving you carrying the weight of it long after…
There’s something about Love, Victor that makes it hard to pin down. At first glance, it might seem like just another coming-of-age series—a spinoff sequel to Love, Simon that leans heavily into the emotional highs and lows of teenage life.
