‘The Fantastic Four: First Steps' Review: The Best Superhero Saga of the Year
Women with astonishing abilities are an essential component of superhero movies, but as 'Thunderbolts*' proved, the more effortlessly they shoot, kick and punch their way out of every situation, generally while firing off comical wisecracks to show us how bored they are with their own coolness, the less excitement they generate. 'The Fantastic Four: First Steps,' by contrast, zeroes in on a far more interesting superpower: creating new life. There's an extended sequence built around a hero going into labor in zero gravity while hurtling through the cosmos, and it exemplifies the movie's unusual feel: interstellar yet down-to-earth. Making your characters relatable, likable, charming and vulnerable might seem to be a fairly obvious assignment, but it conflicts with the comic-book-movie urge to make its characters completely and devastatingly awesome. In getting back to basics, 'First Steps' proves to be easily the best superhero movie of the year.

The Film at Lincoln Center announced Thursday that Jim Jarmusch's Father Mother Sister Brother will be the Centerpiece selection of the 63rd New York Film Festival. The film will have its North American premiere on Oct. 3 at Alice Tully Hall, with Jarmusch and members of the cast in attendance. The film centers on adult children reconnecting with their parents and the complex family dynamics that come with it. Adam Driver and Mayim Bialik star as siblings caring for their father (played by Tom Waits), while Vicky Krieps and Cate Blanchett portray sisters reuniting with their novelist mother (Charlotte Rampling) in Dublin. Indya Moore and Luka Sabbat play twins returning to Paris to confront a family tragedy.

The New York Film Festival, the chosen church of my religion, has provided many of my greatest inspirations and revelations in its continuing celebration of the deep and diverse beauty of cinema." Dennis Lim, NYFF artistic director, calls the film "not just one of [Jarmusch's] very best, it distills everything we have come to love and value about this singular filmmaker's work into one glorious triptych. Father Mother Sister Brother is wise, generous, slyly funny, and enormously moving." It was previously announced that the Amazon MGM film After the Hunt, directed by Luca Guadagnino and starring Julia Roberts, Andrew Garfield and Ayo Edebiri, will open this year's New York Film Festival.

A Sundance standout is coming to Netflix.
Posted Jul 24, 2025 at 3:22 PM UTC A Sundance standout is coming to Netflix. Train Dreams , which was one of my favorite films at the festival this year, is streaming on November 21st, and will also be coming to select theaters this fall. It's an understated and heartbreaking movie about coping with loss and change, telling a story that spans a single lifetime and is buoyed by some incredible performances from Joel Edgerton and Felicity Jones. You can get a feel for it in the new trailer below. Follow topics and authors from this story to see more like this in your personalized homepage feed and to receive email updates.
