Review: Director Marc Forster's "A Man Called Otto"
Sentimental tales about grumpy old men and American decline have, until recently, typically been the domain of Clint Eastwood. But in "A Man Called Otto," Marc Forster's adaptation of Fredrik Backman's bestseller and a remake of the 2016 Swedish film "A Man Called Ove," it's Tom Hanks prowling the...

Review: Director Hirokazu Kore-eda's "Broker"
The Korean drama "Broker" begins like a noir. A young woman walks slowly in the pouring rain in the middle of the night in Busan, her flimsy hood doing little to keep her dry. She looks haunted but determined and soon we see her destination: A church with a collection receptacle labeled "Baby Box...

Looking Back At 2022: A Slap In The Face
Taylor Swift was up. Elon Musk was in, out, in and maybe out again. Tom Cruise was back. BTS stepped aside, and so did Serena Williams, and Tom Brady too — oops, scratch that. But the slap? The slap was everywhere. Ok, so maybe it wasn't on the level of a moon landing, or selection of a pope. But...

Review: Director Lizzie Gottlieb's "Turn Every Page"
Civil wars over semicolons and heated debate over the word "looms" would not, on the face of it, seem like the stuff of a gripping big-screen movie. But make no mistake about it, "Turn Every Page," about the half-century relationship between author Robert Caro and his longtime editor, Robert...

Review: Writer-Director Maria Kreutzer's "Corsage"
A winsome young woman marries into the top echelon of royalty, becomes lonely in a passionless marriage, and suffers eating disorders and depression even as she fascinates the outside world. Decades after her untimely death, they're still making movies and TV shows about her. P.S. Guess what? Her...

Review: Director Sarah Polley's "Women Talking"
What happens when your home no longer feels like a home? When the rules of your life no longer make sense? When your body is not your own? When your children are not safe and neither are you? Do you look for justice? Revenge? Apologies? Do you make amends to keep the peace? Or do you search for...

Review: Director Damien Chazelle's "Babylon"
"Perhaps the ballyhoo meant nothing," Kevin Brownlow wrote in his defining history of the silent film era, "The Parade's Gone By…" It's probably true that even avid moviegoers have increasingly drifted away from the films of what Brownlow called, with good reason, "the richest in cinema's history...

Review: "Puss in Boots: The Last Wish" From DreamWorks Animation
Quick, without looking, guess how long it's been since there's been a Shrek movie or even a Shrek-adjacent one. Over a decade seems too long for such a popular franchise, right? And yet here we are, 11 years later, welcoming back Antonio Banderas's swashbuckling feline in " Puss in Boots: The Last...

Review: James Cameron's "Avatar: The Way of Water"

Review: "Guillermo del Toro's "Pinocchio"
Let's face it, "Pinocchio" has always been an odd choice for a children's morality tale. Of course, lying is wrong. But that's not the only message the story sends. Even the classic 1940 Disney version — lighter and more kid-friendly than the 1883 Collodi tale — still sends the message that if you'...
