First Man

“A commendable technical achievement. Director Damien Chazelle is at the top of his game.”

La La Land

“An adorable, choreographed-to-a-fault work of art. Stone and Gosling light up every scene.”

10 Cloverfield Lane

“A complete bait and switch, and perhaps worse, the creation of tension only for the sake of tone.”

Whiplash

“Features a pair of opposing characters moviegoers won’t be able to shift their eyes from.”
