‘Fire of Love’ review: An explosively great documentary is one of the year's best films
Pick just one of the major elements of this remarkable film — the mind-boggling footage from French volcanologists Katia and Maurice Krafft, Miranda July’s appealingly curious narration, direction that’s equal parts playful and mournful, masterful editing, a real humdinger of a love triangle — and that one element would be enough to make “Fire of Love” well worth approximately 100 or so minutes of your time. (93 minutes to watch, plus at least 10 to recover.) But director Sara Dosa allows all those fascinating pieces to roil together before, yes, erupting into a singular experience.

Movie review: ‘Marcel the Shell with Shoes On’ is pure magic
Tone is one of the hardest things to nail in a film and one of the trickiest things to describe in a review, but it’s where “Marcel the Shell with Shoes On” shines brightest. This kid-friendly A24 movie is somehow whimsical, bittersweet, life-affirming and a little bit heartbreaking all at once. And that makes it the perfect movie for the moment, when the world is looking for art that not just uplifts its audience with joy but also understands the pain of loss too.

Movie review: ‘Where the Crawdads Sing’ lacks grit
Based on Delia Owens’ wildly popular best-selling novel of the same name, “Where the Crawdads Sing” is ostensibly a story of struggle, survival and tenacity — one where a young woman named Kya grows like a flower through concrete in a harsh 1950s and ’60s world, despite the best efforts of a callous and often cruel community. But it plays more like a glossy Nicholas Sparks-flavored melodrama than a tale that actually has any meaningful connection to the messy real world — wetland or otherwise.
