New movie reviews: Critics' picks
Locke
- Rated as: 4/5
- Critics choice
Unmuzzled by his Bane mask from The Dark Knight Rises, Tom Hardy carries an entire drama by himself, as a driver grappling with shifting moods and multiple calls.
Othello
- Rated as: 5/5
- Critics choice
This is one of the finest cinematic incarnations of William Shakespeare’s tragedy, starring a commanding Orson Welles (who also directed) as the Moor of Venice.
Fading Gigolo
- Rated as: 4/5
- Critics choice
The hook is Woody Allen as a pimp (har), but the real appeal here is John Turturro—writing, directing and acting in a romantic comedy that takes women’s needs seriously.
Manakamana
- Rated as: 5/5
- Critics choice
This sublime experimental documentary is comprised of gorgeous and probing one-shots of passengers traveling to a Nepalese temple via cable car. It’s a journey worth taking.
The Young Girls of Rochefort
- Rated as: 5/5
- Critics choice
Don’t miss the restored rerelease of this glorious Jacques Demy musical that includes Catherine Deneuve and Gene Kelly among its singing and dancing lovers.
Only Lovers Left Alive
- Rated as: 5/5
- Critics choice
Tilda Swinton and Tom Hiddleston star in a swoonworthy vampire movie from Jim Jarmusch that’s the epitome of cool.
Captain America: The Winter Soldier
- Rated as: 4/5
- Critics choice
Chris Evans continues to prove his worth, but the bigger surprise is how paranoid Marvel’s latest superhero movie is.
Under the Skin
- Rated as: 5/5
- Critics choice
This hypnotic stunner from Jonathan Glazer (Birth) shows off a dazzling complexity in Scarlett Johansson, playing an alien awakening to human contact.
New movie releases
Young & Beautiful
- Rated as: 2/5
The teenage heroine of François Ozon’s seasonal French melodrama is very interested in pushing limits.
Blue Ruin
- Rated as: 3/5
This can’t quite decide if it wants to be a full-throttle redneck revenge flick or something closer to Winter’s Bone.
The Girl and Death
- Rated as: 3/5
There is indeed a girl (and death) in Jos Stelling’s lovely-looking, somewhat laborious 19th-century period melodrama.
For No Good Reason
- Rated as: 2/5
When a documentary feels the urge to shout about its celebrity cast, could it be making up for shortcomings elsewhere?
Last Passenger
- Rated as: 3/5
This low-budget, London-set thriller about a runaway train stays on the rails, thanks to strong performances.
Transcendence
- Rated as: 2/5
Shouldn’t a future America ruled by a disembodied Johnny Depp be a lot zanier than this dull-as-computer-code thriller?
Proxy
- Rated as: 3/5
An impressive level of tension is maintained through the first hour of this initially riveting, finally ludicrous thriller.
Joe
- Rated as: 3/5
A moody, melancholic throwback to the regional dramas that first gained director David Gordon Green attention.
