  1. A Glitch in the Matrix
    A Glitch In The Matrix is a solid sibling to Room 237 and The Nightmare. Once more, Ascher offers an empathetic space to conspiracy theorists and dreamers, creating a superb setting for honesty, earnestness, and vulnerability. Employing keen editing, he illustrates their arguments with pop culture references and panache. However, he also offers the shadow of a doubt, allowing the viewer a safe space to question.

    Eat My Dust
    It takes a little while to get going, but once it does, it never lets up, proving a cathartic anti-authority picture driven (both literally and figuratively) by Howard.
  3. Cryptozoo
    Cryptozoo may be overstuffed with ideas, but its central dilemma is a fascinating and poignant message that carries a dazzling animated adventure.
  4. Prisoners of the Ghostland
    You know exactly what brand of “weird” to expect from Nicolas Cage and Sion Sono, but what you might not expect is how much the film feels like a death dream about movies.
  5. Space Sweepers
    Space Sweepers is low-risk, low-reward entertainment. It’s a breezy bit of escapism with some social commentary baked in, but it’s the spectacle and whiz-bang that’s on the front burner. Even as he gleefully reshuffles familiar elements from a variety of sources, director Jo has created a fascinating science fiction tableau that feels both original and inviting.
  6. Werewolves Within
    Werewolves Within easily separates itself from the pack by delivering a quirky monster mystery filled with gentle laughs and massive maulings. Not every joke lands, and not every character fits, but overall it's an entertaining alternative to the season's more ghoulish and grim offerings.
  7. Demon Slayer -Kimetsu no Yaiba- The Movie: Mugen Train
    Ufotable’s jaw-dropping visuals alone make Demon Slayer the Movie: Mugen Train well worth a watch, even if the film stumbles a bit at the climax.
  8. He's All That
    Addison Rae and Tanner Buchanan are magnetic leads in this reboot that pays homage to the first film, but fully stands on its own. It manages to cut through modern high school b.s. while transforming two posers into presentable, likable people.
  9. Riders of Justice
    A pleasant surprise that both undermines and elevates typical revenge sagas, Riders of Justice is a unique blend that charms and captivates.
  10. Downton Abbey: A New Era
    Downton Abbey: A New Era starts out as a wistful return to the familiar before shedding its skin and letting the series’ nauseating ugliness come frothing to the surface. It goes from funny and charming to jaw-droppingly grim at the drop of a hat — a wild tonal whiplash that’s absolutely worth a watch. It’s a concentrated dose of Downton Abbey.
  11. Old
    Old isn't M. Night Shyamalan’s best work, but it is one that shows maturity – a movie that tackles universal and intense themes over twists and puzzles.
  12. Trollhunters: Rise of the Titans
    Trollhunters: Rise of the Titans delivers an emotional and action-packed conclusion to the Tales of Arcadia saga, although the movie format doesn't give its large cast the chance to shine.
  13. America: The Motion Picture
    America: The Motion Picture is like Drunk History if the history were not only drunk but also on nitrous. Channing Tatum once again proves he's a comedy force to be reckoned with, backed by a stellar cast of capable and cunning joke spitters.
  14. Blood Red Sky
    Blood Red Sky could lose a few minutes, but overall, it's a ferocious and fun merging of vampires and hijackers.
  15. Fear Street Part Two: 1978
    While Fear Street Part 2: 1978 still offers some thrills, it's not a cut above its predecessor.
  16. The Velvet Underground
    Torn between the avant-garde and the traditional, Todd Haynes’ The Velvet Underground is an intentionally fragmented documentary that’s less about facts, and more about the feeling of being alive in a specific time and place. While more accessible to those in the know, it’s still hypnotic enough to be inviting.
  17. The Power of the Dog
    Jane Campion serves up a nervy psychodrama set against an astonishing cattle country backdrop with impressive performances from Benedict Cumberbatch and Kirsten Dunst, but an obvious plot trajectory that dulls the storytelling impact.
  18. tick, tick...Boom!
    Lin-Manuel Miranda tries to turn Jonathan Larson’s one-man show into a traditional musical, but ends up getting stuck halfway in between. However, Andrew Garfield delivers a tremendous, running-on-fumes performance as the real-life Broadway mainstay, whose impending 30th birthday pushes him to his creative and emotional brink.
  19. Jurassic World Dominion
    Nostalgia and new thrills make an interesting marriage in an imperfect but otherwise exciting Jurassic World Dominion.
  20. Vacation Friends
    Vacation Friends may be a touch predictable, but John Cena and Meredith Hagner will make you wish you had friends like them on your next trip.
  21. Bullet Train
    The craziness of David Leitch's train never goes off the rails nor reaches top speeds but still brings us along for a smooth and stable joyride that outshines its recent American action counterparts.
  22. Transformers: Rise of the Beasts
    Transformers: Rise of the Beasts proves that the Transformers franchise is accelerating in the right direction, delivering solid Autobots action and a solid voice cast behind the infamous robots in disguise.
  23. Mona Lisa and the Blood Moon
    Mona Lisa and the Blood Moon sizzles like a heated cajun fairytale that tells humanity how it is, brimming with Amirpour's distinctly creative voice that keeps me coming back for more.

    The Transformers: The Movie
    As a piece of film history, Transformers: The Movie is pretty weak. But as an entry into the lexicon of popular Eighties culture, the Transformers phenomenon is on par with Matchbox cars, G.I. Joe and (at the time) queen Barbie herself. Long live Optimus! Long live Transformers!
  25. Shirobako: The Movie
    Shirobako: The Movie is a beautifully animated treat for fans of the series, but it might’ve benefited more from exploring less familiar territory.
  26. Hellbender
    Hellbender, a coming-of-age movie from a family that’s built their own indie horror house, is a captivating, smart, and delightfully witchy tale.
  27. The Guilty
    Its efforts at social commentary mostly fall flat, but its thrilling moments and Gyllenhaal’s intense performance largely make up for that.
  28. Love Hard
    Love Hard isn’t reinventing the wheel, but Nina Dobrev and Jimmy O. Yang are adorable to watch in this feel-good Christmas rom-com.

    Damnation Alley
    It's a pretty awesome, ambitious and sometimes very cheesy, apocalyptic sci-fi actioner. It just doesn't hold a candle to Star Wars, its cinematic big brother.
  30. The Tender Bar
    The Tender Bar is a coming-of-age dramedy that sails on the backs of the exceptional ensemble cast.
