Couldn't agree with this more 🔥

I have forever maintained that Jeff Nichols should be a much bigger name in the industry.

Exit 8 does an admirable job at turning an incredibly simple memory video game into a compelling thriller, even if some of the thematic material is predictably thin. #videogames #exit8 #filmsky #theexit8

The new bathrooms at @musicboxtheatre.bsky.social are 🔥

Kristoffer Borgli’s The Drama asks the question: what is the worst thing Zendaya could do and still have you wanting to get married to her? #a24 #thedrama #filmsky

Christian Petzold continues to be one of the world's most consistently great and under-discussed auteurs. Miroirs No. 3 isn't his best work, but it's still another expertly executed slice of small-scale human drama. #petzold #miroirsno3 #filmsky #moviesky

Late Shift (2026): a less sexy version of The Pitt. A nurse goes through a very bad shift and meets patients, family members, doctors and other nurses all having their own very bad day. Things unfold predictably with basically zero dramatic tension but that's ok; it's an effective empathy exercise.

Annemarie Jacir set out to cover a pivotal moment in the history of a long-standing conflict and ended up living in the middle of another one. By tragic coincidence, the film’s message of cyclical violence has been amplified. #palestine36 #filmsky #moviesky

I know I'm a bit late to Nirvanna the Band the Show the Movie, but man, Matt Johnson is really someone to watch.

Jethro Waters writes, directs, shoots and edits the microbudget indie "Gunfighter Paradise," a surreal and darkly comic satire about how everything I believe is good and right, and everything you believe is stupid and dangerous. #gunfighterparadise #filmsky #moviesky

Project Hail Mary is pure sci-fi comfort food, effortlessly evoking the feel-good magic and emotional appeal of your favorite Steven Spielberg and George Lucas adventures. #projecthailmary #ryangosling #filmsky #moviesky #scifi

Maggie Gyllenhaal’s The Bride! crams in so many different styles, tones, subplots, and filmic homages that the movie is under constant threat of collapsing (and it sometimes does). #thebride #filmsky #moviesky

Hoppers is a ton of fun -- possibly the funniest Pixar movie yet? It also contains one of the most shocking movie deaths in recent memory. Something for everyone!!! #pixar #filmsky #moviesky #hoppers

I like Criterion and their releases but when they put something out that I’m not into I don’t buy it and my life doesn’t change, would never occur to me to complain about something getting in

I have alerted the authorities that we need to institute a moratorium on eat the rich movies. Also, possibly Glen Powell. How to Make a Killing is a completely forgettable movie that doesn't have anything interesting to say. #filmsky #moviesky #a24 #howtomakeakilling

Who would have guessed that one of the sweetest moments of intimacy in any recent romance movie would take place during a scene in which four men in assless chaps are lined up side-by-side on a picnic table in order to give oral sex to a group of dom bikers? #pillion #filmsky #moviesky #a24

Emerald Fennell's Wuthering Heights is nowhere near as interesting as the conversation surrounding it. #wutheringheights #filmsky #moviesky #jacobelordi #margotrobbie

#TheMoment is mostly amusing but the interesting moments centered around the cost of celebrity get lost amidst a bunch of easy gags about the state of our corporatized music industry. #filmsky #moviesky #charlixcx

Casting Rachel McAdams in Sam Raimi's latest gorefest thriller is a brilliant move, effectively weaponizing the actress' natural cheerfulness to wonderful effect. #sendhelp #rachelmcadams #filmsky #moviesky

Lav Diaz's Magellan is a fascinating anti-epic, a historical biopic that is more interested in the moments after or to the side of the moments that history remembers. #magellan #slowcinema #filmsky #moviesky

Love these videos and happy to donate to a great cause!

Mercy (2026): 2-3 stars as a decent enough surveillance-state thriller. Negative a billion stars as commentary on the emerging use of AI. Curious what made Rebecca Ferguson want to be in this. #filmsky #mercymovie

28 Years Later: The Bone Temple is certainly gnarly but it also lacks the style and emotional resonance of its predecessor. Felt very much like an intermission to the two Boyle movies - a little surprised at the overwhelmingly positive reaction. #filmsky #moviesky #28yearslater #bonetemple

If you had an awkward and uncomfortable childhood and for some reason wanted to relive the worst bits, you should watch The Plague! #filmsky #moviesky #theplague

The Filmologist's list of the top 25 movies of 2025 is here! Check it out and let me know what I got wrong (or that you have no notes due to its perfection). #filmsky #moviesky #bestof2025

Marty Supreme is yet another movie about an asshole guy who steps over everyone in his way to achieve greatness, but WHAT a movie about an asshole guy who steps over everyone in his way to achieve greatness!! #martysupreme #TimothéeChalamet #A24 #filmsky #moviesky

Excited to see what Nolan does with The Odyssey but not excited to have to listen to the "historical accuracy" crowd for the next 12-18 months.

Avatar: Fire and Ash is FAR too similar to The Way of Water, with a final third that may as well have been copy/pasted from its predecessor. #avatar #fireandash #jamescameron #filmsky #moviesky

Zootopia 2 was an entertaining enough remix of the structure of the original, but I think I laughed the most at the throwaway background animal puns. And ok, The Shining reference got me.

Not sure the world wants more content about A) rich people and B) Netflix, but Noah Baumbach's latest is unfortunately a bit of both. #filmsky #moviesky #georgeclooney #netflix

There is no good result when one potential monopoly is battling another potential monopoly to become a very big monopoly

#avatarfireandash first thoughts: it's....the same exact movie as the last one. And it's set up to make another one (or two) just like it. I was actually a bit bored, which I was not expecting. Kind of a bummer.

Kinda knocked out by Oliver Laxe's Sirât, a movie that probably comes as close as it gets to literalizing a spiritual journey. #filmsky #moviesky #sirat #raves

As of now, Clint Bentley's Train Dreams is my #1 movie of the year. I was on the verge of crying or actually crying for about 75% of the movie, even if I couldn't exactly say why at any given point. Truly astounding stuff. #filmsky #moviesky #traindreams #oscars #netflix

Reedland, the Dutch entry in the Best International Feature Film category for the upcoming Oscars, is a thoughtful piece of slow cinema from a promising debut director. Look away if you can't handle ten-minute scenes of a guy just farming. Lots to ponder here tho, if you're willing. #filmsky #oscars

#Hamnet screening tip: warn the people next to you that you're probably going to sob before the movie even starts, which helps to feel less self-conscious about it when it inevitably happens.

Eternity draws you in with a compelling first half that explores a fairly silly afterlife but sadly devolves into a standard rom-com love triangle. #afterlife #A24 #elizabetholsen #milesteller #moviesky #filmsky

Joachim Trier's Sentimental Value is one of the best movies of 2025, with one of the best endings in recent memory. Long live the Trier/Reinsve combo. #filmsky #moviesky #sentimentalvalue #neon

Dare I say that Bugonia might be Yorgos Lanthimos's best? #bugonia #filmsky #moviesky #emmastone #jesseplemons

Nia DaCosta's Hedda is a lot like being at a party where there's a lot of drama going on that you aren't a part of -- you can just sit back and enjoy the flames. Tessa Thompson shows impressive range and Nina Hoss is a delight. #filmsky #moviesky #hedda #tessathompson

It Was Just an Accident is Jafar Panahi's best and most accessible film to date, a meticulously constructed moral quagmire that poses urgent moral questions with no easy answers. One of the year's best, if not THE best. #filmsky #moviesky #itwasjustanaccident

The Black Phone 2 was pretty fun and had some pretty clever visuals (and The Grabber ice skating). I wouldn't mind a new one of these every few years. #filmsky #moviesky #blackphone #blackphone2 #ethanhawke

Checked out Pasa Faho thanks to the Chicago Film Festival. A really confident debut from Kalu Oji, one of those simple little slice of life movies that sneak up on you and make you cry. Would love to see Okey Bakassi in more stuff. Hope more people are able to see this! #filmsky #moviesky #pasafaho

Edward Berger's Ballad of a Small Player is a real case of style over substance, but what style! Colin Ferrell does an admirable job keeping things grounded, but this is a story that doesn't fit well with the insane visual bombast used here. #filmsky #moviesky #netflix #colinfarrell #tildaswinton

Train Dreams had me on the verge of tears almost the entire time, but I'd be difficult to explain exactly why. What a quiet masterpiece, one of the best things I've seen in a long time.

If I Had legs I'd Kick You is a supremely uncomfortable watch and I may never see it again, but it's still one of the best movies of the year. #filmsky #moviesky #rosebryne #ifihadlegs

It's certainly got some flaws, and the unsatisfying ending is going to sour people on it, but A House of Dynamite is still a breath-stopping, jaw-clenching anxiety spike that reminds us only a few people have their hands on the biggest trigger there is. #filmsky #moviesky #netflix #ahouseofdynamite

After the Hunt is designed to spawn a million think pieces, throwing every conceivable hot button issue into a talk-heavy morality play. I seemed to like this more than every other critic in the room, but it's sure to inspire some capital O Opinions. #filmsky #moviesky #juliaroberts #andrewgarfield

Kiss of the Spider Woman adequately scratches that itch for those seeking a good old-fashioned campy Hollywood musical, with Jennifer Lopez fully in her element and a star-making performance from Tonatiuh. #filmsky #moviesky #kissofthespiderwoman #jlo #Tonatiuh

I swear I've seen The Smashing Machine at least 100 times, simply given different titles over the past few decades. Don't understand the love for boxing/fighting movies at all. #filmsky #moviesky
