Few films are as softly humorous and entertaining as A Samurai in Time that you’ll see in 2024. The movie makes adroit choices that create a fun different time travel film, one that will surprise in its low-key charm and humanity.
Red Rooms the fourth feature film from writer/director Pascal Plante is the kind of film that many filmmakers spend their entire careers chasing. Visually astute, tauntly written, superbly acted, and utterly terrifying. In a year of uncommonly unique horror films, Red Rooms stands head and shoulders above even the very best.
Rebel Ridge (dir. Jeremy Saulnier)
Damn.
First off, it’s not an action film. Let’s get that out of the way right now. This is a true blue honest THRILLER. This is the kind of elite-level studio-produced thriller that THE FUGITIVE was. Yeah, it’s that good. It’s constructed as tight as any film of recent memory and it weighs in at a hefty 131 minutes.
The Top Ten (in Alphabetical Order except the top film)
Wicked (dir. Jon M. Chu)
No notes. Wicked is big-budget studio filmmaking at its finest.
