Hamnet (2025) A.S. Hamrah Despite Buckley’s falconry early in the film I’m not sure that when it comes to grief Zhao knows a hawk from a handsaw.

Sirāt (2025) A.S. Hamrah In many ways a thrilling, beautiful, and disturbing movie, Sirât’s callousness, intended as spirituality, mimics the world’s indifference.
Posted Mar 27, 2026  Edit critic review
Train Dreams (2025) A.S. Hamrah The movie, for all its patience and forest majesty, is bland, an example of the creeping Hallmarkization of American film, or of the domestication of Terrence Malick's style in service of an illustrated novel.

Weapons (2025) A.S. Hamrah Madigan’s outlandish, creepy performance, with its orange wig of baby bangs and large gradient eyewear, was criticized as crone-shaming, but Weapons is in fact the rare film to address the problem of American gerontocracy head-on.

The Voice of Hind Rajab (2025) A.S. Hamrah In The Voice of Hind Rajab, reality butts up against form in a way that is more gruesome than productive.

If I Had Legs I'd Kick You (2025) A.S. Hamrah The mere existence of a second Mary Bronstein movie, much less one as amazing as this, proves that patience and a bad attitude are not just their own rewards.

Bugonia (2025) A.S. Hamrah Bugonia shares with If I Had Legs I’d Kick You an excellent screenplay and a great cast, each superior in their concision to those in bigger films this year, whose expansiveness, while admirable, made them a little muddy.

Marty Supreme (2025) A.S. Hamrah Timothée Chalamet wore me out with his relentlessness, and the Mad Libs casting exhausted me.

Sentimental Value (2025) A.S. Hamrah The made-up problems of these successful Norwegian artistes and academics did not interest me.
Posted Mar 27, 2026  Edit critic review
Sinners (2025) A.S. Hamrah Like many a Hollywood action movie, it has more endings than it needs, and before that it descends into mere violence, but the rest of Sinners is grand.
Posted Mar 27, 2026  Edit critic review
Frankenstein (2025) A.S. Hamrah The film looks stagey and snow-globey and its green color palette unfortunately called to mind Wicked. It even has the same poppy fields.
Posted Mar 27, 2026  Edit critic review
One Battle After Another (2025) A.S. Hamrah One Battle After Another is a rarity: a big Hollywood action movie self-consciously concerned with liberating the future from the clutches of a geriatric order.

The Secret Agent (2025) A.S. Hamrah Mendonça is very generous to his actors.
Posted Mar 27, 2026  Edit critic review
It Was Just an Accident (2025) A.S. Hamrah With It Was Just an Accident, Panahi has decided to make a film that meets any audience more than halfway.
Posted Mar 27, 2026  Edit critic review
Song Sung Blue (2025) A.S. Hamrah It’s an instant classic.
Posted Mar 27, 2026  Edit critic review
Blue Moon (2025) A.S. Hamrah It will be an alienating movie for many people, probably most people, despite Hawke’s bravura incarnation
Posted Mar 27, 2026  Edit critic review
F1 The Movie (2025) A.S. Hamrah The White Parade is a semi-lost film, existing only as a partial dupe print in an archive. It’s hard to believe a Hollywood film made by a major studio as late as 1934 only exists that way. I hope the same thing happens to F1.
Posted Mar 27, 2026  Edit critic review
Melania (2026) A.S. Hamrah Melania is an anti-documentary.
Posted Mar 16, 2026  Edit critic review
Dune: Part Two (2024) A.S. Hamrah I can only take so much messiah talk in science fiction, especially when it’s coming from Javier Bardem and Timothée Chalamet, both of whom I generally like, but here all I could think about was that they’d played Desi Arnaz and Bob Dylan.
Posted Mar 04, 2025  Edit critic review
Anora (2024) A.S. Hamrah In the second section... we lose the Ani we’d come to know.
Posted Mar 04, 2025  Edit critic review
A Complete Unknown (2024) A.S. Hamrah Chalamet’s performance is a success, a real feat of acting in which he thoroughly inhabits Dylan-ness without slipping into parody
Posted Mar 04, 2025  Edit critic review
A Real Pain (2024) A.S. Hamrah These nice boys in their nice movie made me miss Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon, and Wallace Shawn and Andre Gregory, in their talky two-handers.
Posted Mar 04, 2025  Edit critic review
Flow (2024) A.S. Hamrah If animated cats, dogs, and lemurs are your thing, Flow is the movie for you. Thankfully these animals don’t talk and it isn’t a musical.
Posted Mar 04, 2025  Edit critic review
The Brutalist (2024) A.S. Hamrah The Brutalist is a deeply confused film that touches greatness by mixing disparate elements that have no business being together.
Posted Mar 04, 2025  Edit critic review
Nickel Boys (2024) A.S. Hamrah That Ross and Fray have managed to make it work and have created a film unlike any other proves it was a risk worth taking.
Posted Mar 04, 2025  Edit critic review
No Other Land (2024) A.S. Hamrah The more of this documentation, the better.
Posted Mar 04, 2025  Edit critic review
September 5 (2024) A.S. Hamrah In the end, September 5 is a tribute to Nielsen ratings.
Posted Mar 04, 2025  Edit critic review
The Seed of the Sacred Fig (2024) A.S. Hamrah The shock ending and cut to news footage of the Amini protests is a Kiarostamian move that brings the film back into the reality, but its indictment of Iranian patriarchy and repression was already clear.
Posted Mar 04, 2025  Edit critic review
I'm Still Here (2024) A.S. Hamrah Fernanda Torres’s performance as Eunice is one of great tribute.
Posted Mar 04, 2025  Edit critic review
The Substance (2024) A.S. Hamrah The film is too long for its one concept.
Posted Mar 04, 2025  Edit critic review
Emilia Pérez (2024) A.S. Hamrah The film is a preposterous nightmare of first-world self-regard.
Posted Mar 04, 2025  Edit critic review
Wicked (2024) A.S. Hamrah John M. Chu has directed it so dutifully that no musical number can become a showstopper, which doesn’t really matter because the film’s audience already knows the songs by heart.
Posted Mar 04, 2025  Edit critic review
Sing Sing (2023) A.S. Hamrah In Sing Sing, the other guy is better, a more dynamic and volatile screen presence.
Posted Mar 04, 2025  Edit critic review
Conclave (2024) A.S. Hamrah This one is highly burnished and tightly wound, seemingly made by Fiennes and not the director.
Posted Mar 04, 2025  Edit critic review
Everything Else (2016) A.S. Hamrah Willful boredom smothers Natalia Almada's Everything Else.
Posted Sep 30, 2024  Edit critic review
Kill, Baby... Kill! (1966) A.S. Hamrah It's utterly convincing, a reminder that cinema had all the tools it needed before computers.
Posted Sep 27, 2024  Edit critic review
Reagan (2024) A.S. Hamrah Reagan harps on the phrase “clarity is power,” and it is clarity as a visual storytelling value more than patriotism or reason that makes this film into the most effective kind of propaganda.
Posted Sep 16, 2024  Edit critic review
Green Border (2023) A.S. Hamrah Instead of Green Border remaining a hard-edged film in which the depredations of an unfair, destructive system are exposed, it becomes something that makes viewers feel a little bit better about the agony she brought to life in the first half...
Posted Sep 16, 2024  Edit critic review
The Becomers (2023) A.S. Hamrah Its ensemble is excellent, especially Isabel Alamin and Molly Plunk as the first two alien-ated women.
Posted Sep 16, 2024  Edit critic review
Trap (2024) A.S. Hamrah Trap is ingenious as a genre film, but it doesn’t go much farther than that. It comes off as more of an exercise than one of the director’s metaphysical outings.
Posted Sep 16, 2024  Edit critic review
Longlegs (2024) A.S. Hamrah Osgood Perkins's horror film is artier than any other new movie I saw this summer.
Posted Sep 16, 2024  Edit critic review
Janet Planet (2023) A.S. Hamrah Janet has bad taste in boyfriends, but Baker has excellent taste in character actors.
Posted Sep 16, 2024  Edit critic review
Do Not Expect Too Much from the End of the World (2023) A.S. Hamrah There is so much in this film, which is open to anything. In its 163 minutes, Do Not Expect Too Much from the End of the World encompasses both a silent color sequence comprised of 115 shots of roadside crosses and an unbroken, thirty-five-minute take...
Posted Sep 16, 2024  Edit critic review
La Chimera (2023) A.S. Hamrah La Chimera is the simpler, wiser, and newer film, with a more intimate connection to a larger, deeper past...
Posted Sep 16, 2024  Edit critic review
Close Your Eyes (2023) A.S. Hamrah Too much of the rest of the film is old men whining about cinema’s decline. Although I feel this sense of loss as acutely as anyone, I’m tired of this attitude in the older generation. Just go to the movies.
Posted Sep 16, 2024  Edit critic review
The Linguini Incident (1992) A.S. Hamrah The Linguini Incident is something of an East Coast version of another 1991 movie, Steve Martin’s L.A. Story, similarly a romp on the cusp of a disappearing zeitgeist, a last expression of the previous decade just after it ended.
Posted Sep 16, 2024  Edit critic review
Twisters (2024) A.S. Hamrah Powell as Hawksian man works fine, but Edgar-Jones, a Brit playing a New Yorkified Southerner who sounds like Anne Hathaway, never quite rises to the challenge of having a personality.
Posted Sep 16, 2024  Edit critic review
Deadpool & Wolverine (2024) A.S. Hamrah Wolverine's tiredness in the film makes sense in this repetitive regime of endlessness and its accompanying exhaustion of ideas.
Posted Sep 16, 2024  Edit critic review
The Zone of Interest (2023) A.S. Hamrah Glazer’s film is a punk provocation...
Posted Mar 08, 2024  Edit critic review
Io Capitano (2023) A.S. Hamrah Paolo Carnera’s virtuosic, unhackneyed cinematography is the co-star here. Io Capitano is an exquisitely shot film, with the warm colors of Senegal competing against the shifting tones of the desert and the rust of the boat at sea.
