Our take on One Battle After Another

Paul Thomas Anderson's 2025 film follows a washed-up revolutionary living off-grid in stoned paranoia with his self-reliant daughter, until the past comes calling. With Anderson's gift for sprawling, character-rich Americana and tonal daring, it promises ambitious, unpredictable filmmaking. If that brand of restless, big-canvas drama appeals to you, seek out audacious character epics that blur comedy, crime and tragedy.
