    Insomnia

    ★★★½

    I feel like the mid-budget movie where an auteur gets to cut their teeth after an indie hit has largely gone the way of the dodo, with Christopher Nolan’s Insomnia being one of the last through the door.

BlackBerry is an engaging, comedic thriller that serves as both a phenomenal showcase for Glenn Howerton as an actor and the most Canadian film of the year. Every scene Howerton is in is magnetic and impossible to look away from, as you’re waiting with baited breath for him to explode with frustration towards these nerds. Jay Baruchel is also…
