The Moment
The Charli XCX mockumentary ‘The Moment’ self-describes itself as decidedly not family friendly, which makes our job a whole lot easier.
The Secret Agent
Oscar nominee ‘The Secret Agent’ isn’t really about spy work. It’s just an odd, bloody, foul and painfully slow film.
The Revenant
The Revenant, like the land it depicts, is beautiful, brutal and unforgiving.
Dead Man’s Wire
‘Dead Man’s Wire’ is indeed a well-made movie—as tightly wound as a wire itself. But this movie, too, is tethered to some real problems.
H Is for Hawk
‘H is for Hawk’ is at times beautiful and moving, at times hard and cutting. This film is not to be cuddled, and it holds no easy answers.

‘Still Hope’ is a challenging film that details the horrors of human trafficking. But it also tells us that there is hope for healing.

Mercy
Amazon’s ‘Mercy’ offers audiences a dystopian tale with moments of intense violence and some crude language, too.
