Much of the content is familiar from the daily news cycle, but there is something about seeing it all collected that makes it feel different. The connective tissue between things becomes more apparent.

That this collective experience is insanely hilarious is just the chef’s kiss. In this, Rankin takes his rightful place as a chronicler of all things wonderfully Canadian.

Dog Stars is not an exceptional outing for Scott, the creator of such stone-cold classics as Alien and Blade Runner. But the film’s lack of remarkability is perhaps its most interesting aspect.

The Invite is a hit and deservedly so. It is one of those rare films for adults that makes you laugh, wince and get wildly emotional. Excruciating but also extremely funny, it’s a movie you watch between your fingers.

Unfortunately, Disclosure Day ain’t E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial. Nor does it even come close to the operatic grandiosity of Close Encounters of the Third Kind.

The film is laden with hefty ideas including dialectical materialism. But it’s also full-tilt boogie bananas, animated by a Tex Avery-style cartoon energy that is as serious as it is silly.

Watching events unfold with the care and caution of an eight-year-old, Sasha (Eylul Guven) functions as the ears, eyes and heart of the story.

Adapted from Andy Weir’s 2021 novel, the film stays true to the major plot points of Weir’s work, with the bonus addition of Gosling’s incontrovertible charm to add to the action.

While the student occupation of George Williams dominates the bulk of the narrative, the film takes the time to draw a bigger picture of racial relations in Canada.

It is fascinating to witness Poitras push Hersh on certain aspects of his life’s work, revealing one of the unsung heroes of the story, namely Elizabeth Sarah Klein, the journalist’s wife of over 60 years.

The film is not without problems, eschewing subtlety for a blunter approach. But maybe in this period of extremity, that is well warranted.
