| 65 36% | Megalopolis (2024) - Rated 29 Sep 2024
"Hallucinogenic oscillation between high and low art, poisoned with the confusion of modern society. Actually has the dreamlogic of a Guy Maddin film, somehow even weirder."

"Fails to do in 2+ hrs what the bathtub scene in The Shining did in like 5 minutes."

"TIFF 2024: Moments of teenage ambition & delinquency captured with playful elegance. The lingering threats of surveillance culture, racial tension, and natural disaster never completely converge but instead function as a sort of invisible constriction closing in on the characters, forcing them to confront each other beyond the veil of childhood. The cast of non-actors were fantastic- and carried the film even when it ran out of new things to say."

| 80 72% | Polvo serán (2024) - Rated 09 Sep 2024
"TIFF 2024: A brave, shocking film. Depicting the last moments of life with the complicating factor of exploring voluntary death as a romantic gesture. With its musical interludes and warm Spanish setting, the film presents as more pleasant viewing than something like Haneke's "Amour" or Noe's "Vortex", but the void of death almost looms larger here by being largely neglected by it's idealistic protagonists. The final act approaches death with such sober sterility its basically indigestible."

| 75 59% | Bird (2024) - Rated 09 Sep 2024
"TIFF 2024: The magical realism aspect of the movie never seemed to really pay off or justify itself, but otherwise boasts a lot of the same raw strengths as Arnold's other films. Keoghan's character was wacky, sort of entertaining, but ultimately artificial. Absolutely here for Burial getting into film scores, every time I heard his signature crackle my heart opened up a bit."

| 90 94% | Grand Tour (2024) - Rated 09 Sep 2024
"TIFF 2024: Utterly intoxicating, humid, and masterful. Cutting together spontaneous travelogue footage with the artifice of old Hollywood to inform and interfere with one another, ultimately resulting in a space at the center of the film for the viewer to find their own connections, poetry."
