Incredibly strong performances, full of excellent cinematography and narrative back-and-forth, and almost becomes an entirely different movie on rewatch. Just a little bit sluggish on the second go-around.

Black Bag 2025
An engaging espionage thriller with strong, subtle performances and cinematography, and a mystery that keeps you guessing but pulls all the pieces together at the end. Pacing is a bit sluggish, and the final wrap-up is slightly rough around the edges, but ultimately satisfying.

Lisa Frankenstein 2024
What the trailers made out to be a shocking, darkly humorous remix of the classic story turned out to be a flat and distant retreading of Heathers that seems afraid to make any strong choices or tell any real jokes. Two of about three funny gags in the movie were in the trailers, and the colorful visuals and likable performances cannot hold up the slow narrative.

Companion 2025
Strong and surprising for most of the runtime, but unfortunately loses steam and retreads familiar ground in the drawn-out ending. Cinematography isn't anything special, robbing many scenes of their impact with repetitive shot-reverse-shot compositions. Some fun commentary and overall good performances.
