Marty Supreme (2025)

 

This movie is a lot. It’s long. It’s tedious. It’s filled with characters who make poor choices. One could draw comparisons to John Safdie’s previous film, Uncut Gems, which I hated. 

Marty Supreme has some lighter moments that helped keep the viewer from complete despair. The ping pong action scenes are amazing. Timothee trained in the sport for 6-7 years in preparation for this role. Seems like CGI would have saved him a lot of trouble, but he’s a method actor. 

Rating: C

She Rides Shotgun (2025)

 

A breakout performance by Ana Sophia Heger as a little girl caught up in a very adult mess. The tone is tense and sad. Stories like this don’t have “happy” endings.
