Promising Young Woman (2020) ☆☆☆(3/4): Avenging Young Woman
“Promising Young Woman” is a darkly curious mix of comedy and noir thriller which will surely disturb you for good reasons. The movie is rather uneven and disjointed at times in handling relevant gender issues, and I still have some … Continue reading
On the Rocks (2020) ☆☆☆(3/4): It is never boring to be with her dad…
Sofia Coppola’s new film “On the Rocks”, which was released on AppleTV+ two months ago, is a lightweight comedy film often buoyed by another entertaining performance from Bill Murray, who has never been boring throughout his long, illustrious acting career. … Continue reading
More Than Family (2020) ☆☆☆(3/4): Her matter of pregnancy and paternity
South Korean comedy film “More Than Family” surprised me more than expected. At first, it seems to be merely depending on one absurd comic story premise, but then it comes to show more depth in terms of story and characters, … Continue reading
The Prom (2020) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4): Glittering but passable
Netflix film “The Prom”, which was released on Netflix in last week shortly after being released in theaters a few weeks ago, is as lively and glittering as you can expected from a musical film directed/co-produced by Ryan Murphy. It … Continue reading

Black Bear (2020) ☆☆☆(3/4): A sharp and vicious comedy of two interconnected tales
“Black Bear” is a sharp and vicious comedy film which actively confronts you with a matter of fiction and reality. While the first half is an increasingly tense chamber drama of desire, jealousy, and manipulation amidst three believable characters, the … Continue reading
The 40-Year-Old Version (2020) ☆☆☆1/2(3.5/4): Meet Radha Blank
Netflix film “The 40-Year-Old Version”, which won the US Dramatic Competition Directing Award when it had a premiere at the Sundance Film Festival early in this year, is a witty and edgy comedy film which will definitely leave lasting impressions … Continue reading
The Incredible Jessica James (2017) ☆☆☆(3/4): Thoroughly sassy Jessica
Netflix film “The Incredible Jessica James”, which I belatedly watched it along with other Netflix film “The 40-Year-Old Version” (2020), is funny and charming for the lively and endearing comic persona of its lead actress. Yes, this is surely another … Continue reading
Freaky (2020) ☆☆☆(3/4): Freaky Friday the 13th
“Freaky”, which is incidentally released “Freaky Deathday” in South Korean theaters, is a little fun horror comedy film which accomplishes its tasks as well as intended in its small genre playground. Although its juxtaposition of two familiar story promises is … Continue reading

Kajillionaire (2020) ☆☆☆(3/4): Stuck with her small-time crook parents
“Kajillionaire” is as quirky and charming as you can expect from Miranda July, who previously delighted us with “Me and You and Everyone We Know” (2005) and “The Future” (2011). Like these two films, the movie often baffles us with … Continue reading
Borat Subsequent Moviefilm (2020) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4): Borat returns
“Borat Subsequent Moviefilm”, which is also known as “Borat 2”, wants to be as bold, shocking, and outrageous as its predecessor, but the overall result feels rather mildly amusing in comparison. Although there are several uproarious moments in the film … Continue reading
