Reviews

Over the course of our more than 15-year existence, FSR has published thousands of reviews. We have reviewed movies from film festivals like Sundance, SXSW, TIFF, and Cannes. We review new theatrical and streaming releases. We even have two recurring columns — Previously On and Up Next — in which we review new and returning TV shows. And just as a fun fact, we used to give out letter grades with our reviews.

Lady in the Water

By  

M. Night Shyamalan is a great director, but even he could not turn this unique story into anything worth seeing. The plot disappoints and the acting is subpar, leaving M. Night fans a little jaded in the end.

A Scanner Darkly

By  

Richard Linklater’s Scanner is a haunting but visually stunning depiction of what America on drugs could be in the future.
