Anthony Lane reviews Joseph Kosinski’s “Top Gun: Maverick,” a sequel to the 1986 classic, starring Tom Cruise, Miles Teller, Jennifer Connelly, Ed Harris, and Val Kilmer, and Alex Garland’s “Men,” an anti-pastoral horror movie set in rural England and starring Jessie Buckley, Rory Kinnear, and Paapa Essiedu.

Movie review: Alex Garland's surreal movie 'Men' is a horror story about misogyny. Expect cultural pathology, not jump scares.

Garland’s latest is like a scary-movie remake of Dick Emery, with excellent performances from Kinnear in a number of different roles, and Jessie Buckley

A woman reeling from a personal tragedy embarks on the holiday from hell in Alex Garland’s underwhelming folk horror film.

★★★★☆ Following Ex Machina and Annihilation, writer and director Alex Garland returns to the green, green pastures of home with a new chiller on just how toxic masculinity can be. Jessie Buckley plays Harper, a woman in need of a retreat following the tragic end of her relationship with James (Paapa Essiedu).

Even Garland says he just wants to start conversations. In theaters May 20.

Jessie Buckley's grieving widow Harper comes across some unfriendly faces in Alex Garland's new folk horror. Read the Empire review.

With the male need to control women hitting a new flashpoint in the courts, "Men" comes at a pivotal time. But it’s not a #MeToo sermon.

Alex Garland’s latest horror flick overshadows the woman at its center to focus on the men who cause her trauma. K. Austin Collins' review

The last time a major filmmaker ventured into a nightmarish Garden of Eden amid a swirl of Christian and pagan warnings of the evil that men do, the filmmaker was Darren Aronofsky, the film was “Mother!” and the CinemaScore exit polls of moviegoers out for a good time awarded it a rare, how-dare-you grade of […]

"Men" is a self-aware social commentary that plays with horror tropes and a showcases the talents of its leads.
