Flight Risk (2025) 29% EDIT “Flight Risk, directed by Mel Gibson, is a B movie that stretches its plot to the limit and manages to pull a mostly entertaining ride out of a seemingly dead- end premise.” – Chicago Reader Jan 30, 2025 Full Review Carry-On (2024) 88% EDIT “It’s a largely predictable film... that doesn’t do a whole lot to advance the genre and has an incomprehensibly bad CGI set piece, but it’s saved by its fun concept and an entertaining supporting cast.” – Chicago Reader Dec 20, 2024 Full Review Wolfs (2024) 66% EDIT “As the night turns to morning, Wolfs loses steam as it attempts to unravel the mystery connecting its characters, but it’s ultimately more of a journey than a destination film anyway.” – Chicago Reader Sep 23, 2024 Full Review Mickey Hardaway (2023) 97% EDIT “This isn’t a miraculous tale of pulling oneself up by the bootstraps, but a glimpse of how life’s circumstances can drive us to take the most desperate and destructive of actions.” – Chicago Reader Sep 12, 2024 Full Review Speak No Evil (2024) 83% EDIT “Speak No Evil thoroughly succeeds in the most basic of horror elements: executing the collapse of a situation we all see going wrong but are far too engrossed in to take our eyes off.” – Chicago Reader Sep 12, 2024 Full Review Dìdi (2024) 96% EDIT “Dìdi is a melancholic, rewarding coming-of-age film.” – Chicago Reader Aug 9, 2024 Full Review Bad Boys: Ride or Die (2024) 65% EDIT “Bad Boys: Ride or Die does a little bit of everything while not being particularly great at anything. At its most mediocre moments, it’s a star-driven vehicle with questionable star power but, every so often, it reminds you of the genuinely funny film...” – Chicago Reader Jun 7, 2024 Full Review Dune: Part Two (2024) 92% EDIT “In an age of ever-increasing runtimes, it’s a rare achievement that the film’s 166-minute length feels earned.” – Chicago Reader Mar 1, 2024 Full Review The Teachers' Lounge (2023) 95% EDIT “Writer-director Ilker Çatak’s film works best as a strong allegory about the impact and influence that an overbearing society can have on its participants.” – Chicago Reader Jan 26, 2024 Full Review Fireworks (2023) 100% EDIT “Fireworks, more than anything, is earnest. Its story is tumultuous, yet Fiorello manages to steer his debut on a touching trajectory. ” – Chicago Reader Jan 26, 2024 Full Review The Eternal Memory (2023) 92% EDIT “Maite Alberdi brings us one of the most heartfelt renditions of life, love, and memory in recent years of cinema. ” – Chicago Reader Aug 26, 2023 Full Review Strays (2023) 54% EDIT “Director Josh Greenbaum and writer Dan Perrault team up for neither of their best work with Strays, a lackluster crude dog comedy whose blessedly short run time is its most redeeming feature.” – Chicago Reader Aug 18, 2023 Full Review A Compassionate Spy (2022) 81% EDIT “Riding the coattails of Oppenheimer, this documentary suffers from a drift into hagiography.” – Chicago Reader Aug 8, 2023 Full Review Oppenheimer (2023) 93% EDIT “Christopher Nolan’s newest film is jarring and memorable, an ode to creation and consequence.” – Chicago Reader Jul 29, 2023 Full Review Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One (2023) 96% EDIT “The fun comes in the execution. Identities are assumed; masks are worn and revealed; and the question of what is real, what is fake, and what to do with that information creates a steady sense of engagement.” – Chicago Reader Jul 14, 2023 Full Review Asteroid City (2023) 76% EDIT “Asteroid City, the latest from Wes Anderson, is a true achievement from one of America’s most unique cinematic voices.” – Chicago Reader Jun 23, 2023 Full Review Flamin' Hot (2023) 67% EDIT “Despite the spicy subject matter, Flamin’ Hot is a run-of-the-mill biopic.” – Chicago Reader Jun 17, 2023 Full Review Alam (2022) 100% EDIT “Khoury’s Alam is an affecting and effective film firmly fixated on contradictions and how we navigate them to create a sense of self.” – Chicago Reader May 17, 2023 Full Review Shazam! Fury of the Gods (2023) 49% EDIT “The original film left nothing of substance for this superhero sequel.” – Chicago Reader Mar 25, 2023 Full Review Babylon (2022) 57% EDIT “Damien Chazelle’s Babylon is a classic Hollywood reflection on itself at a pivotal point in its history, chronicling the rise and subsequent fall of a series of characters at different points in the journeys to stardom.” – Chicago Reader Dec 23, 2022 Full Review The Fabelmans (2022) 92% EDIT “Steven Spielberg’s 33rd feature film is a marvel coming-of-age story and one of his most personal.” – Chicago Reader Dec 3, 2022 Full Review The Inspection (2022) 88% EDIT “Elegance Bratton’s autobiographical story The Inspection is one of learning to accept love on one’s own terms.” – Chicago Reader Nov 23, 2022 Full Review Till (2022) 96% EDIT “Ultimately and unfortunately, Till is a film that covers important events, but doesn’t quite feel like it adds enough to the story to be an important film.” – Chicago Reader Oct 25, 2022 Full Review Bros (2022) 88% EDIT “Bros is a genuinely funny movie with nuanced emotional heft.” – Chicago Reader Oct 1, 2022 Full Review Barbarian (2022) 92% EDIT “Cregger takes a simple premise and spins it into a series of unexpected permutations. Some tropes work better than others, but we’ll give him credit for inventiveness.” – Chicago Reader Sep 24, 2022 Full Review
