#Wildwood is a jaw-dropping showcase of stop-motion animation, with over a hundred handcrafted sets and some of #Laika most ambitious work yet.

What if you commissioned a husband made entirely out of #wicker? Olivia Colman and Alexander Skarsgård lead #WickerMovie, a delightfully strange romantic tale exploring loneliness, ostracisation, & the desire for companionship.

What if you were swallowed by a whale and had to find a way out?
#whalefall turns its ridiculous premise into an operatic survival thriller, blending claustrophobic tension, underwater visuals, and starmaking #AustinAbrams role.

A career pickpocket, an estranged daughter, and a desperate attempt to protect the person he loves most. #JohnTurturro anchors Noah Segan's latest with a quietly captivating performance.

“We hear the very perpetrators analyse in detail the tactics behind the atrocities. Reminiscent of The Zone of Interest, it contrasts the horror of what’s happening with the banality with which it’s being described.”

“A film that breaks your heart without leaving you broken.”
Read @The_LifeOfDylan’s ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ rave of #Josephine, a devastating yet deeply compassionate film featuring a phenomenal performance from Mason Reeves and masterful direction from Beth de Araújo.

#YouCanSeeEverything is a game changer. What starts as a documentary searching for its story then transforms into something truly euphoric. #NathanFielder and #LanceOppenheim strike gold. Go in BLIND. The less you know, the better. Pure cinematic bliss. I’m at a loss for words.
“#Fjord is a film about how humans are still human, even if they do things you find abhorrent,” Ray Siddiqi writes in his review of Fjord.

“#TheSocialReckoning doesn’t capture the feeling of the platform that is designed to rile up its user base.”
Read @The_LifeOfDylan review of a film that he was very excited for that ultimately became a total misfire.

Do you Digg or Die?
Read @SebMadeInChina great in-depth article about how #Digger breaks the construct of what a movie is and what a movie can be.

Review embargo doesn’t lift until Wednesday for #TheSocialReckoning… All I’ll say is, this film feels like someone riled up by a fake news post on Facebook, just regurgitating talking points they saw on their timeline.
Mikey Madison. Jeremy Strong. Aaron Sorkin… What happened?
Fantasy Filmball retweeted
Not sure if I watched the movie as everyone currently hating but @diggerthemovie was an absolute blast! Enthralling from end to end, #TomCruise is easily award worthy.
#DiggerMovie
After #LaBolaNegra took home the #TIFFPCA, #BeingHeumann + #IPlayRocky burst into the race, & the social embargo has lifted for #TomCruise #Digger how has the Filmball community adjusted their #Oscar predictions?

I grew up obsessed with #ToCatchAPredator, so a Chris Hansen movie with Robert Pattinson had me wanting to take a seat. #Primetime nails the iconic stings, Pattinson is a chameleon nailing Hansen’s voice, Gisondo is a revelation, & Oppenheim brings kinetic energy behind the lens
From breakout hits like #YourMotherYourMotherYourMother and #IPlayRocky to the films that fell flat, survived, or saw their awards stock take a hit…
