 Annapurna, 2019. Director Richard Linklater has been on quite a roll with a string of fantastic films, but even the greats deserve a mulligan.
 Neon, 2019. Tough questions are raised, if not addressed, in this quiet yet smoldering drama.
 Universal Pictures, 2019. Teenage boys look for love in an R-rated world, finding just enough laughs along the way to make it all worth it...sort of.
 Columbia Pictures, 2019. Quentin Tarantino's ninth film is a fond revision of the Silver Age of Hollywood, as remembered by someone whose life was changed by it.
 A24, 2019. "Crazy Rich Asians" break-out star, Awkwafina, leads one of the best acting ensembles of the year in one of the most touching and unique family stories you'll ever see.
 Zeitgeist Films, 2019. Alice Guy-Blaché may be the most important figure in the history of cinema that you've never heard of.

 Walt Disney Pictures, 2019. Despite being crushed by critics, the newest version of Disney's "The Lion King" is anything but soulless. Let me explain.
 Bleeker Street Media, 2019. Jesse Eisenberg is perfectly cast as a victim who desperately wants to flip-the-script, in this cleverly-penned examination of toxic masculinity.
 Freestyle Releasing, 2019. Despite a fairly clever premise, "Supervised" is about as bad a film as they come.
