Opening: Mar. 11, 2022
Limited (United States)
The Exorcism of God
Brent McKnight @ The Last Thing I See
- Excerpt: The Exorcism of God’ is most fun when Hidalgo and company let loose and get wild, which fortunately encompasses most of the back half of the film.
Gold
Brent McKnight @ The Last Thing I See
- Excerpt: To call writer/director (and actor) Anthony Hayes’ Gold minimal is a bit of a stretch. Minimal is an overstatement.
Offseason
Brent McKnight @ The Last Thing I See
- Excerpt: a tense, brisk, gripping tale of seaside fright, primordial chills, and sinister small-town mystery.
Turning Red
Laura Clifford @ Reeling Reviews
- Excerpt: the best Pixar movie in over a decade… Sandra Oh’s Ming is perhaps Pixar’s most entertaining vocal performance since Ellen DeGeneres’s Dory
Turning Red
Mike McGranaghan @ The Aisle Seat
- Excerpt: Turning Red is an often uproarious ode to a time in most people’s lives that is simultaneously awful and awesome.
Ultrasound
Mike McGranaghan @ The Aisle Seat
- Excerpt: Intrigue to morphs into impatience, and finally into apathy.

The Adam Project
David “DC” Bolling @ DC’s Take
- Excerpt: The Adam Project is the sci-fi surprise that exceeded my expectations. It wasn’t flawless, but it was a fascinating, fast-paced adventure full of heart and thrills set in the universe of time travel.
The Adam Project
Sebastian Zavala @ Me Gusta El Cine [Spanish]
- Excerpt: An entertaining and emotional film, combining exciting action sequences with characters that are easy to empathise with.
Fear
Laura Clifford @ Reeling Reviews
- Excerpt: : a delightful take on a serious subject that ends on a note of whimsy and will reward anyone willing to give it a chance.
Gangubai Kathiawadi
Herman Dhaliwal @ Cinema Sanctum
- Excerpt: Sanjay Leela Bhansali continues to prove himself to be one of cinema’s greatest visual stylists. It’s a rich film not just through its visual tapestry, but also through its emotions and Alia Bhatt’s lead performance.
Josep
Laura Clifford @ Reeling Reviews
- Excerpt: cartoonist Aurel directs the film in a number of distinct styles, his own modern, colorful approach used for the storyteller, Bartoli’s own work animated in flashback
The Pink Cloud
- Excerpt: The point of The Pink Cloud is not the science of the cloud, but the way people react to enforced togetherness and abrupt changes in their lives.

Between Two Worlds
Diego Salgado @ SoFilm [Spanish]
Bhoot Police
Kathy Gibson @ Access Bollywood
Deserto Particular
Sebastian Zavala @ Ventana Indiscreta [Spanish]
- Excerpt: It has lots to say about the rigidity of gender roles and masculinity in contemporary Brazilian society. The fact that it can convey these messages in a delicate and even at times beautiful way, is what makes it worth recommending.
