HAMNET - Review | TIFF 2025
Chloé Zhao's latest film contains such a commanding and emotionally intense third act where it's impossible not to be swept up by how excellently it displays the value of storytelling helping to confront tragedy.

Every potential detail for this con


NIRVANNA THE BAND THE SHOW THE MOVIE - Review | TIFF 2025
Matt Johnson’s latest film works marvellously as an expansive addition to the series it’s based off along with engaging those unfamiliar with it. The type of rare comedy nowadays featuring genuinely shocking and outrageous real-life scenarios to which it's puzzling to process how they were able to get away with pulling them off. Even with the film going above and beyond for breaking conventions on delivering non-stop memorable humour, Matt and Jay’s striking chemistry provide
