    Under Fire is a little rough around the edges, and the story is not unique, but the performers make it special and elevate the material.

    It's not particularly memorable or an all-time great action story, but it's decent, and the quality is there. Off the Grid is an overall satisfying action movie as long as you're willing to look past the bare-bones plot.

    Don't Tell Larry is a dark comedy that tries hard to deliver a unique brand of comedy, only to fall short in the storytelling.

    Fortunately, Brave the Dark does deliver an engaging and enjoyable narrative, with excellent performances, an intriguing and compelling plot, and an important message worth listening to.

    The Damned has been made to a high standard. The film is extremely well-crafted; the cast, the period setting, and the eerie and isolated fishing village where the story plays out all help to create a tense and believable story.

    The result may not be groundbreaking, but it's fun and it does what it sets out to do, creating an interesting supernatural horror that keeps tensions high.

    The film is unique and intriguing, but it struggles to tell its own story in an effective way.

    Cellar Door may not provide intense emotional payoffs, or twists that come as a complete surprise, but the actors deliver great performances, and it's intriguing to watch as the central couple's lives unravel.

    Hitpig seems to have gone all in on the goofy humor and left the movie with an unappealing and unenthusiastic story that, despite the novelty of a bounty hunter pig, can't make up for a movie with no stakes.

    It's clear there were several great ideas in The Radleys, wonderful casting across the board, but the edit leaves much to be desired.

    With a little more thought, and some effort made to elevate the narrative beyond sexy killer robots, it could have carved out a space as a cult hit, but Subservience falls short.

    It delivers a beautiful and promising dressing before unveiling a largely by-the-book story. It is not bad by any means, but it doesn't push the envelope or explore anything new, either. Slingshot is a pleasant watch, but it doesn't ever rise above that.
