Choosing
a movie to watch isn't a fraught decision. But I can make it a little bit
easier for you. I’d like to introduce some great movies of 2020 today.
Director Kitty Green’s scripted debut depicts a
long day in the life of a low-level drone at an unnamed New York film studio
not unlike the Weinstein Company. Jane (Julia Garner) takes calls and makes
copy and scrubs the bodily fluids off the couch in her boss’ office, all with
the same look of grim understanding that this is what she has to endure to get
ahead in her dream industry. Spare and devastating, The
Assistant serves up a portrait of an abusive workplace in which the
behavior of the unseen man at its head trickles down to inform the power
dynamics and behavior of the rest of the company. That includes HR, to which
Jane pays a visit in a brutal centerpiece scene that emphasizes what it’s like
when the only choices open seem to be to become complicit or to give up.
Color Out of Space
For a certain type of moviegoer, any film where
Nicolas Cage says the word "alpacas" multiple times is worth seeking
out. Luckily, Color Out of Space, a psychedelic adaptation of H.P. Lovecraft's
short story from 1927, offers more than just furry animals and unhinged Cage
theatrics. Mixing hints of science-fiction intrigue and bursts horror movie
excess, along with a couple splashes of stoner-friendly comedy, Richard
Stanley's proudly weird B-movie vibrates on its own peculiar frequency. Cage's
Nathan, a chatty farmer with a loving wife (Joely Richardson) and a pair of
mildly rebellious kids, must contend with a meteoroid that crashes in his front
yard, shooting purple light all over his property and infecting the local water
supply. Is it some space invader? A demonic spirit? A biological force
indiscriminately wreaking havoc on the fabric of reality itself? The squishy
unknowability of the evil is precisely the point, and Stanley melds Evil Dead-like gore
showdowns with Pink Floyd laser light freak-outs to thrilling effect, achieving
a moving and disquieting type of genre alchemy that should appeal to fans of
Cage's out-there turn in the similarly odd hybrid Mandy. Again, you'll
know if this is in your wheelhouse or not.
Sorry We Missed You
The modern gig economy is set up so that the
customer rarely has to think very much about the person delivering a package to
their door. Sorry We Missed You, the latest working class social drama from
83-year-old English filmmaker Ken Loach, is a harsh reminder that those piles
of cardboard Amazon boxes have a human cost. The film follows married couple
Ricky (Kris Hitchen) and Abbi (Debbie Honeywood) as they attempt to raise their
two kids, keep their humble home in Newcastle, and and hold down jobs stripped
of conventional protections. As Ricky's domineering boss tells him at the
beginning of the movie, he's not an "employee." No, he's his own
small business owner and independent contractor. Loach finds dark laughs and
absurdity in the the convoluted language of precarity, particularly the way
management attempts to sell poor working conditions as a form of empowerment,
but he also captures the tender, intimate moments that occur in even the most
soul-sucking jobs. Ricky and his daughter find joy in knocking on doors and
leaving notes; Abbi, who works as a nurse, genuinely cares for her patients
like her own family even if the company she works for refuses to pay for her
transportation. Though the script leans too hard on melodrama in its final
stretch, setting up scenes that don't always deliver on their dramatic
potential, Loach never loses his moral grasp on the material.
No Time To Die
Bond has left active service and is enjoying a
tranquil life in Jamaica. His peace is short-lived when his old friend Felix
Leiter from the CIA turns up asking for help. The mission to rescue a kidnapped
scientist turns out to be far more treacherous than expected, leading Bond onto
the trail of a mysterious villain armed with dangerous new technology.

Scarlett Johansson reprises her role as
Natasha/Black Widow in Marvel Studios' action-packed spy thriller "Black
Widow"--the first film in Phase Four of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
