A24 delivered all kinds of movies throughout 2022. We rank them from worst to best.
In 2013, A24 was just a new indie studio trying to make a name for itself in the challenging field of American arthouse cinema. Nobody could be certain that this ambitious outlet would ever be able to endure given how many arthouse studios in the past had only lasted a few years before fizzling out. Cut to 2022 and A24 experienced an incredible year that included Everything Everywhere All at Once reaching new box office heights for one of the studio’s releases.
14. Stars at Noon There’s a lot to admire in Stars at Noon, an English directorial effort from the legendary Claire Denis anchored by Margaret Qualley and Joe Alwyn. Denis’s constant fascination with the human body lends a sense of tangible immediacy and intimacy to any of the sensual scenes of Stars at Noon while Qualley is quite good in the lead role. Unfortunately, Alwyn is utterly forgettable in his performance, a fatal flaw considering how much of Stars at Noon hinges on his character.
11. Causeway Causeway would be so much better with a more intimate third act. Lynsey and James are already plenty compelling as fictional characters before they navigate a final half-hour rife with pronounced melodrama. But stumbling in the home stretch doesn’t take away from what Causeway does right, namely giving Henry a chance to excel as a dramatic performer.
8. The Inspection If there’s any part of The Inspection that shines especially bright, it’s the cast. Jeremy Pope is outstanding in the understated lead role while Gabrielle Union lends a discernibly unique personality to an intolerant character that could’ve felt like an out-of-place caricature in a movie so grounded in reality.
5. Pearl When you’re making a sequel, prequel, or any kind of follow-up to an established movie, it’s best to go in a wildly new direction rather than spend so much time and energy recapturing everything that worked in that original feature. Director Ti West happily embraced this approach with Pearl, a prequel to X. For this title set in the early 20th century, West embraced influences from filmmakers like Douglas Sirk to create a campy yet also unnerving spectacle.
