Matthew Goudreau The Young Folks Aug 7, 2026 While the make-up and performances go a long way in helping the film, Cronenberg’s ability to generate pathos in an unlikely genre makes the film as compelling as it is. Go to Full Review The Fly (1986) 82% 83%

Nathanael Hood The Young Folks Aug 13, 2025 All of this is done by Kurosawa with an eye for detail... It’s so striking that it almost completely distracts the audience from realizing that High and Low is one of the great master’s most pessimistic and nihilistic films.

Jon Negroni The Young Folks Oct 14, 2022 8/10 A clear example of how films should represent stories this sensitive and important. Not with an intent to somehow trick audiences into thinking we've moved past all this. Go to Full Review Till (2022) 96% 97%

Adonis Gonzalez The Young Folks Oct 13, 2022 7/10 Though it has its faults, Lyle, Lyle Crocodile is a charming, well-intentioned movie with homages to the live-action/animated hybrid family films of the past. Go to Full Review Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile (2022) 72% 93%

Will Ashton The Young Folks Oct 13, 2022 5/10 What was once tumultuous in Russell’s work has now become tedious, resulting in a film about the lingering effects of the wars of our past and the wars to come that’s too caught up in its own internal combat to discover the compatibility that it seeks...

Yasmin Kleinbart The Young Folks Sep 1, 2022 8/10 Medusa shines when it focuses on the repression of women’s feelings. While on the surface, it looks like these girls enjoy spreading the word of God, deep down, there’s anger bubbling inside of them. Go to Full Review Medusa (2021) 84% 39%
