    Challengers

    ★★★★½

    "Remember when you said you'd let me win the game(?)"
    "That was a lifetime ago."
    "What about my grandmother(?)"
    "I hope she has a fucking stroke(!)"

    Luca Guadagnino delivers the sexiest, sweatiest tennis film ever made.

    The film centres on three formerly would-be tennis stars caught in a triangle of love, friendship, and competition. Art Donaldson (Mike Faist) is a Grand Slam Champion, but has failed to win the U.S. Open and is about ready to hang up his racket…

  • Anatomy of a Fall

    Anatomy of a Fall

    ★★★★★

    "Sometimes a couple is kind of a chaos and everybody is lost. Sometimes we fight together and sometimes we fight alone, and sometimes we fight against each other, that happens."

    Justine Triet's Palme d'Or-winning Anatomy of a Fall starts out as a courtroom drama / whodunnit, but evolves into a much more complex examination of relationships and the public/private self.

    Husband and father Samuel (Samuel Theis) takes a tumble from a great height and hits the ground dead outside his…

  • One of Them Days

    One of Them Days

    ★★★½

    "Don't worry about me, imma be fine. Two kisses up to God and I'll be straight."
    "What does that have to do with your stomach? This is not..."
    "God heals all things."
    "Girl, you're lactose intolerant."
    "Tummies included! Tummies included."

    Keke Palmer and SZA star in this energetic one-day comedy about two friends in LA trying to make rent money before they get evicted.

    This film thrives off the chemistry of its two leads, who star as Dreux and Alyssa,…

    The Hurt Locker

    ★★★★

    "Aren't you glad the Army has all these tanks parked here? Just in case the Russians come and we have to have a big tank battle?"
    "I'd rather be on the side with the tanks, just in case, than not have 'em."

    Kathryn Bigelow adds a nerve-shredding entry to the war-is-hell genre and why, despite that, some can't stay away.

    This is one of those films where if you asked me a month ago if I'd seen it I would've…

    ★★★★½

    Electric one take drama starring Stephen Graham as head chef of a busy London restaurant.

    We follow chef Andy (Graham) and the other restaurant staff over the course of one evening's service. Things get off to a bad start when the restaurant is downgraded from a 5-star health rating to 3-stars, and the stress only piles on from there as the restaurant is overbooked, systems break down, and difficult patrons make life harder for everyone.

    Easily as stressful as a…

  • Falling Down

    Falling Down

    ★★★½

    "I lost my job. Well, actually I didn't lose it, it lost me. I am over-educated, under-skilled. Maybe it's the other way around, I forget. But I'm obsolete. I'm not economically viable."

    Michael Douglas plays the man who snapped in Joel Schumacher's nihilistic 90s thriller.

    Douglas gives a gripping performance as Bill Foster, an unemployed defense worker who just gets out of his car in a traffic jam and attempts to head to his ex-wife and child's house, becoming increasingly…
