    Crimes of the Future

    There is so much strangeness that it may take until the movie is over to realize it doesn’t really connect its dots.

    Cyrano

    This is a decent adaptation of the material in most ways, except for Peter Dinklage’s performance, which raises it to a higher level.

    The Worst Person in the World

    It is amusing, whimsical, sad, funny and touching. This is absolutely one of the best movies of 2021.

    The look of the movie is impressive because of how unshowy it is, though a lot of thought has obviously been put into every frame.

    Belfast

    It is both an appealing crowd-pleaser and a timely look at how hatred can tear a country apart.

    The Last Duel

    Ridley Scott may be known more for action and sci-fi, but he proves that he can make an epic of ideas, rather than merely one of spectacle.

    Lamb

    It is quite compelling in the moment, yet Lamb didn’t say as much as it tried to. Still, I was consistently engaged.
