The History of Concrete
Laura Clifford @ Reeling Reviews
- Excerpt: Wilson has a talent for pairing quirky visuals from his beloved New York City with an oral narrative they often have little to do with, something akin to audio visual puns.
- Excerpt: The History of Concrete is an excellent example of letting curiosity guide an idea and letting the idea tell its own story.

American Doctor
Jared Mobarak @ Hey, have you seen …?
- Excerpt: Yes, the emotion is palpable and the hypocrisy is rampant, but the bureaucratic hoops they must jump through to provide a basic human right is astounding. It’s a miracle they are allowed in at all.
Babies
Jared Mobarak @ The Film Stage
- Excerpt: Rogen said it best when mentioning Ron Howard’s Parenthood as a big influence for the structure she sought insofar as presenting the myriad ways in which love and parenting manifest.
Chronovisor
Kenji Fujishima @ Book and Film Globe
Dear You
Mark Hobin @ Fast Film Reviews
- Excerpt: This tiny-budget film spoken in Teochew became a massive hit in China. Warm, heartfelt, and deeply moving, it deserves to find an audience far beyond its home country.
Everything Else Is Noise
Iron Boy
Jared Mobarak @ The Film Stage
- Excerpt: Iron Boy proves a heartfelt coming-of-age story with just the right amount of magic and authenticity to ensure the stakes remain high for the duration.
Mutiny
Sebastian Zavala @ MeGustaElCine.com [Spanish]
- Excerpt: Blood, violence, the occasional one-liner, and villains who get their comeuppance. In short: everything we should expect from a new Jason Statham film. What more do you need?
The Oldest Person in the World
Jared Mobarak @ Hey, have you seen …?
- Excerpt: Sure, [these women] are the catalysts of its content and the through line to continue for another decade with plans of releasing a sequel, but they aren’t the stars of the show. That distinction belongs to Green himself.
The Stunt Driver
Jared Mobarak @ Hey, have you seen …?
- Excerpt: It’s a pretty by-the-numbers period piece that works because of its eccentric characters. What begins as a farce populated by brash buffoons becomes about the drama inherent to the process behind this runaway train coming to fruition.
Tangles
Jared Mobarak @ Hey, have you seen …?
- Excerpt: Nelson pulls no punches putting it all on-screen in gorgeous black and white. The fluid transitions into fantasy are kinetic and overwhelming. The raw emotion of the characters sitting in the horror of their circumstances is present in every quiet moment.
To the Black
- Excerpt: Whether it goes up or blows up, he wants people to know what they have created. That kind of transparency is refreshing, and it makes us wish the film reflected that equally.
You, Me & Tuscany
Rick Aragon @ Rick’s Texan Reviews
- Excerpt: Perhaps that is a good way to think of You, Me & Tuscany: as a Hallmark movie with a larger budget. However, overall, I found You, Me & Tuscany a pleasant, inoffensive romp.
Your Mother Your Mother Your Mother
Jared Mobarak @ The Film Stage
- Excerpt: The humor is what hooked me. That said, however, this remains an emotionally impactful film. It’s a quest that sees this father realize he was worried about the wrong fight.

Franz
Sebastian Zavala @ Cinencuentro.com [Spanish]
- Excerpt: An atypical, ambitious, and entertaining biopic with impeccable acting. ‘Franz’ isn’t particularly Kafkaesque, but it at least leaves the viewer with several ideas about who Franz Kafka was—and, for some, still is.
