'Materialists' Review: Another Triumph for Celine Song

The lead characters do a lot of mathematics in Materialists. Math in the movies might seem like a turn-off, but it's the kind of math you'd expect the "material"-minded leads to be calculating — so most of the time, it's all good fun. This is a rom-com after all, the second feature from Past Lives writer-director Celine Song. Her first feature also centered on love, but was very much a drama; the Oscar-nominated stunner begged a question: Could its creator match such tear-jerking quality in her forthcoming movie? Absolutely.
