Note: This is a repost of myThe Hate U Givereview from the 2018 Toronto International Film Festival. The film is now playing in limited release and expands into more theaters this weekend. As evidenced by the countless number of films telling stories about white people, there is no one universal “white experience.” Not everyone lives the same kind of life, has the same guiding philosophies, or shares the same interests. But of course the same is true of other kinds of stories; those that have been underrepresented on the big screen....

One of the weirdest movies I saw at the Toronto International Film Festival last year was writer/directorBen Wheatley’s dark comedyHigh-Rise. Based on the novel of the same name byJ.G. Ballard, the film is essentially a violent satire about class warfare, albeit permeated with Wheatley’s signature touch throughout, which means gleeful violence, head-trippy sequences, and some odd narrative turns in the second half of the movie. There were certainly those that took fully to Wheatley’s brand of satire, but I have to say the film wasn’t really for me....
