Review: ‘Sentimental Value’ Delivers One of the Year’s Most Tender Family Dramas
Sentimental Value is a quietly devastating exploration of what happens when art, memory, and regret collide. Joachim Trier crafts one of his most intimate films yet, following a once-famous father trying to reconnect with the daughters he left behind in pursuit of his craft. The performances—from Stellan Skarsgård to Renate Reinsve—are layered with quiet emotion, while the film’s delicate cinematography mirrors the fragility of its characters. Trier refuses easy answers; instead, he offers a tender, deeply human portrait of how families fracture, heal, and ultimately rediscover one another. It’s a masterpiece that lingers long after the credits roll.

We Live in Time (Review)
Read Braden’s review of "We Live in Time" and discover why this beautifully crafted film is sure to resonate deeply and evoke a wide range of emotions.
In an era dominated by remakes and requels, Silent Night, Deadly Night returns not as a hollow exercise in nostalgia, but as a slasher that understands both its legacy and its controversy. Originally released in 1984 to intense backlash, the film has long occupied a strange place in horror history—reviled by some, embraced by genre fans. This new iteration doesn’t shy away from that baggage; instead, it reworks the story with intention, justifying its existence through bold narrative choices and a clear affection for the slasher tradition.
