The Netflix streaming feature “The Beast in Me” is a flawed-but-intense study of grief, revenge and sociopathy, Dan Webster says.

Richard Linklater’s Netflix feature “Blue Moon” is a study in failed dreams and lifelong regret, Dan Webster says.

Blue Moon is Richard Linklater’s second feature this year, a portrait of the troubled lyricist Lorenz Hart. Nathan Weinbender says it’s not a great Linklater film, but it does have a great Ethan Hawke performance in it.

If I Had Legs I’d Kick You: It’s an odd title and an odd movie. Nathan Weinbender says this polarizing, anxiety-inducing film, now available for digital rental, is a daring showcase for Rose Byrne.

The dystopian thriller "The Running Man" has been brought into the present day by director Edgar Wright and star Glen Powell. Nathan Weinbender says it’s an uneven, overlong action-comedy blockbuster.

Richard Linklater’s “Nouvelle Vague” is a love letter to the French New Wave, Dan Webster says.

Clint Bentley’s “Train Dreams” is a visual meditation on loss, the nature of grief and the healing power of nature, Dan Webster says.

Jafar Panahi’s Palme d’Or-winning “It Was Just an Accident,” now playing at the Magic Lantern, follows one man’s tireless attempts to justify revenge. Nathan Weinbender says it’s a propulsive thriller and a blistering rebuke of the Iranian government.

Jafar Panahi challenges Iran's government with his new film "It Was Just an Accident," Dan Webster says.

In The Mastermind, Josh O’Connor is a 1970s family man who briefly moonlights as an art thief. Nathan Weinbender says this quiet, low-key drama is one of director Kelly Reichardt’s best.
