“Voyagers” is draped in a blue tint and surrounded by a classic sci-fi score that presents an illusion that something deeper is happening on screen than what the film actually gives its audience. While it raises some interesting questions that humans are likely to face in the future, “Voyagers” does not explore them in a meaningful way.

“Boogie” begins with the vibrant, bustling streets of New York City’s Chinatown paired with the pulse of rap music in rhythm with the opening credits. It immediately sets the mood: culture and identity are not monoliths, but blends.

There’s a scene in Noah Baumbach’s “The Meyerowitz Stories (New and Selected)” that I always think about — a moment that only a person with siblings can truly understand.

In writer and director Lev Grossman’s science fiction romantic comedy, “The Map of Tiny Perfect Things,” the idea of living for today because of the uncertainty of tomorrow is untrue for 17-year-old aspiring art student Mark (Kyle Allen). Just like Phil (Bill Murray) in “Groundhog Day,” Mark lives the same day over and over again, starting each morning asleep in bed and waking up to the sound of his mom’s car leaving for work.

Sometimes good is not enough. To be the best, to become a household name, one cannot just simply be good. One must be broken down to your core, look at yourself in the mirror and ask yourself if you have what it takes to be the best. The last scene of “Whiplash” explores this theme of success and asks, considering the sacrifices, was it worth it?

One of the five love languages is touch, and Barry Jenkins seems to worship it in his film “Moonlight.” In its quietest moments, the film reaches out, fingers spread, begging to be held, carried, caressed and touched.

I suppose that it is easy to find “La La Land” cliché. The upbeat music, star-studded cast, vibrant costumes and glossy shots of the Hollywood hills make you wonder if you’ve seen the film before. But, what sets it apart from the rest of the oversaturated, love-sick movie musicals?

“Film About a Father Who” opens on Ira Sachs, the filmmaker’s father, flinching as a comb works through his long and wiry hair. In this frame, Ira is an unknown elderly man who looks tired, harmless and boring. As the documentary untangles the web of adventure, women and children that make up his life, he proves to be quite the opposite.

Science fiction movies have the ability to distort a viewer’s sense of time, space and reality. We know and love the successful examples like “Interstellar,” “Blade Runner” and “Arrival.” Director and writer, Mike Cahill, unsuccessfully attempts to reach these cinematic heights with “Bliss,” a utopian love story satirically set in the present. The blend of sci-fi, romance and drama only adds to the unclear identity of what Cahill is trying to say. While there are certainly complex messages paired with strong visual effects, the film doesn’t communicate those messages with enough power and emotion.

“Land,” directed by and starring the acclaimed Robin Wright, superbly embodies the emotional expedition that comes with survival in the modern day. Edee (Robin Wright) abandons her life and her phone, seeking out existential meaning through isolation in the wilderness. It comes as a surprise, then, that the meaning she is seeking materializes from human connection — the exact attachment that she was running from.
