Jessica Jones Season 2

She’s a woman so compelling that I can’t look away, even when she’s at her self-destructive best.

Annihilation

If anything, this movie feels like a directorial debut. I’m completely mystified how Garland screwed this one up.

The Beguiled

Suffice to say that The Beguiled is a nifty little tale that isn’t quite a thriller, isn’t quite a wartime drama and isn’t quite an historical romance.

Jasper Jones

Racism and sexism lurk around the edges of the interpersonal drama, though there isn’t anything particularly nuanced about the depiction.

Hidden Figures

The packaging may be rather generic – this is a period drama about social justice, with all the dramatic beats you’d expect – but the writing is wonderfully nuanced.

Lion

Simple without being simplistic, the story presents us with no villains; the drama here is about people killing each other with kindness.
