    Barbie

    ★★★★

    Barbie Land's production design was a nostalgic childhood dream that undoubtedly carried the entire film, which is an impressive feat given the unforgivable blatant Chevrolet advertisements.

  • Poor Things

    Poor Things

    ★★★★★

    Bella Baxter successfully transcends the male gaze ironically through a hedonistic sexual odyssey—a cinematic feat. A deeply fulfilling female protagonist whose irreverence and unapologetic vulnerability leave a lasting impression. Bella does not need enlightenment or liberation. She already trusts herself from beginning to end.

    The Boy and the Heron

    ★★★

    Miyazaki stands in the shadow of his legacy. 'The Boy and the Heron' is a fragmented puzzle, challenging one's patience. However, the poignant themes around grief and acceptance become harmonious upon additional viewings. Mahito’s coming-of-age story will undoubtedly become a celebrated Studio Ghibli classic.

  • The Zone of Interest

    The Zone of Interest

    ★★★★★

    Only a wall separates the Höss family from the horrific atrocities of Auschwitz. Gunshots, incoming trains, and screams are heard … but never seen. 'The Zone of Interest' does not shield us from the brutality but rather turns every viewer into a bystander within the Höss household. A haunting depiction of the ease with which evil can be domesticated in pursuit of prosperity.
