Holy Motors (2012) 91% 4/5 EDIT “While this avant garde lark may not be up everyone's alley, it's a riotous detour around tired Hollywood formulae; and it is, most certainly, a trip.” – Montreal Gazette Apr 29, 2020 Full Review Jeune Juliette (2019) 4/5 EDIT “Colourful, kooky and cool, Jeune Juliette is a delight that deserves your time and attention, and blows the playing field wide open for Émond.” – Montreal Gazette Dec 20, 2019 Full Review Under the Silver Lake (2018) 58% 3/5 EDIT “Mitchell doesn't seem to know what he wants. And by setting up the pieces and then getting distracted by the lint in his navel, he ends up with an initially beguiling film that turns out to be a narcissistic bore.” – Montreal Gazette Dec 19, 2018 Full Review Lemonade (2018) 90% 3.5/5 EDIT “The acting is solid all around, with Manovici offering a dazzlingly nuanced performance mingling innocence, charisma and deer-in-the-headlights desperation.” – Montreal Gazette Dec 19, 2018 Full Review Fake Tattoos (2017) 100% 3/5 EDIT “Driven by an audacious thirst for authentic moments, Les faux tatouages leaves a lasting impression.” – Montreal Gazette Apr 3, 2018 Full Review The Devil's Share (2017) 4/5 EDIT “It's a richly evocative celluloid collage, which flits left and right, goes here, there and everywhere to look at the multiple, conflicting and conflicted identities of this place called home.” – Montreal Gazette Feb 20, 2018 Full Review Nelly (2016) 70% 4/5 EDIT “Mylne Mackay delivers a towering performance...” – Montreal Gazette Dec 15, 2017 Full Review A Skin So Soft (2017) 94% 3.5/5 EDIT “... open-minded cinephiles will be surprised as they are drawn into a universe in which they may have had very little interest.” – Montreal Gazette Dec 15, 2017 Full Review Chasing Trane: The John Coltrane Documentary (2016) 74% 3/5 EDIT “It's interesting stuff, but all the talk gets in the way of the music, weighing down this formulaic documentary with a pedagogical approach.” – Montreal Gazette Jun 22, 2017 Full Review The Beekeeper and His Son (2016) 3.5/5 EDIT “The Beekeeper and His Son is a compelling micro-drama. At first glance, there seems to be little going on, but over the course of the film's 85 minutes, Diedie Weng pulls you in.” – Montreal Gazette Jun 8, 2017 Full Review Miséricorde (2016) 3/5 EDIT “It's a thriller that never fully takes off, and a staggered drama that takes a few too many detours. But the former documentary director's heart is in the right place, and in its final act his story achieves a tempered sense of resolution.” – Montreal Gazette Jun 5, 2017 Full Review X500 (2016) 3.5/5 EDIT “A visceral contemplation of youth forced into adulthood, each character adopting a new identity as part of a new crew, or makeshift family, as a means of survival.” – Montreal Gazette Apr 13, 2017 Full Review Rebels on Pointe (2017) 100% 3/5 EDIT “Though it stretches thin in the third act, Rebels on Pointe is an affectionate tribute to a dance company that dares to defy convention.” – Montreal Gazette Apr 6, 2017 Full Review Frantz (2016) 91% 3.5/5 EDIT “All the while, solemn though he is here, the director has fun with it. And that is what ultimately makes Frantz, despite its slow pace and occasional lulls, a pleasure to watch.” – Montreal Gazette Apr 6, 2017 Full Review Afterimage (2016) 86% 2.5/4 EDIT “Afterimage is not particularly noteworthy as a cinematic experience unto itself. However as an earnest adieu from an acclaimed filmmaker with some 50 titles to his credit, it's entirely honourable.” – Montreal Gazette Mar 23, 2017 Full Review The Settlers (2016) 95% 3.5/5 EDIT “Ultimately, Dotan's thought-provoking film succeeds by never getting bogged down in heavy history of the conflict, but using it to offer perspective to the situation in its present day.” – Montreal Gazette Mar 16, 2017 Full Review Polina (2016) 85% 3/5 EDIT “Saving things, somewhat, is the dancing. Even Binoche and Schneider get in on the action as the filmmakers flesh out their flawed story of a talented young woman in search of her own voice.” – Montreal Gazette Feb 9, 2017 Full Review Angry Inuk (2016) 86% 3.5/5 EDIT “From the outset of Alethea Arnaquq-Baril's eye-opening documentary Angry Inuk, it is clear that this is going to be a different take on seal hunting than the one that has dominated the mainstream conversation over the past four decades.” – Montreal Gazette Feb 9, 2017 Full Review Maudite poutine (2016) 3/5 EDIT “Lemieux isn't too concerned with plot. Now that there is one, he's free to get down to the business of exploring the bruised psyches of his central characters.” – Montreal Gazette Jan 27, 2017 Full Review Gulistan, Land of Roses (2016) 4/5 EDIT “Even while they wait at a lookout for signs of action from ISIS, these women never stop being entirely open, thoughtful and engaging.” – Montreal Gazette Jan 19, 2017 Full Review Mes nuits feront écho (2016) 3.5/5 EDIT “The surprises keep coming in this refreshing film, which pulsates with playfulness and understated cinematic audacity.” – Montreal Gazette Jan 12, 2017 Full Review A Kid (2016) 83% 2.5/5 EDIT “Things come together in the home stretch, giving the film a certain poignancy... but it's not quite enough to make up for the time lost in the first hour-and-change of this earnest, plodding tale.” – Montreal Gazette Jan 10, 2017 Full Review Roger D'Astous (2016) 3.5/5 EDIT “Desrosiers constructs a faithful, intermittently inspired portrait of an iconoclast who always thought outside the box.” – Montreal Gazette Jan 10, 2017 Full Review Médecin de campagne (2016) 91% 3/5 EDIT “If you don't mind seeing where it's all going from the outset, you might be pleasantly surprised by the ways in which this sweet little film evolves into something more evocative than the sum of its parts.” – Montreal Gazette Dec 23, 2016 Full Review Desert Cry (2016) 3.5/5 EDIT “You only realize how formulaic most films are when you see one that really bucks convention.” – Montreal Gazette Dec 8, 2016 Full Review
