  1. A dreamlike fictional biopic about Marilyn Monroe, Blonde features a stunning, volatile performance from Ana de Armas, whose daring vulnerability is matched by director Andrew Dominik’s equally daring formal approach, which keeps Marilyn in constant conversation with her iconic photographs, with the camera, and with the public at large.
  2. I couldn’t help but feel like Things Heard & Seen would have been a much better film if they stripped away its ghostly elements in favor of everyday horrors that Pulcini and Berman nailed so effectively in its second act.

    Blended brilliantly, this remake of Black Christmas makes for holiday horror that's a tantalizing and terrifying treat.
    • 49 Metascore

    Sure, it's silly and exploitative, but it's also a hoot to watch, particularly for gorehounds, Corman fans and cult enthusiasts.
  3. 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.
  4. Sing 2 is more of the same, which is dandy.

    While not as sweeping as The Warriors - lacking that film's epic underpinnings - Class of 1984 is a goofy jolt of low-octane ultra-violence.
  5. Supergirl borrows from the best, but Milly Alcock’s great take on Kara Zor-El gets lost in the spare parts from other movies used to assemble her story.

    Clichés combined with poor dialogue and badly drawn characters that lack dimension bog down the heist movie Den of Thieves, which fails to sustain, or generate, any real tension.

    While the movie has some good sequences, as a whole it never seems to come together - the pacing is all off.
  6. The Get Out is forgettable fare, though Russell Crowe remains fun to watch.
  7. An impression of much better action films, spy thriller The Gray Man (directed by Joe & Anthony Russo) wastes its all-star cast by giving them little to work with beyond quips. While it eventually becomes watchable, it spends most of its runtime being visually and emotionally indecipherable.
  8. Although Apartment 7A's chills are mild, this decades-late Rosemary’s Baby prequel gets by on atmosphere and strong performances.

    The film does manage to provide some fresh thematic punches (and gobs of female nudity for the teen male demographic), and it's clear why Seagal was a popular action star. If only the film was a little flashier, a little edgier and a little more original. Still, it's one of Steven Seagal's finest, if that's saying anything.
  9. PAW Patrol: The Mighty Movie feels more like a legitimate feature film than its predecessor, but it’s still well within the realm of distractor cinema rather than something parents would want to watch with their kids.
  10. Stephen Sommers' throwback to adventure films and screwball comedies has managed to become a modern classic, and a paean to a type of movie that rarely gets made these days.
  11. Bohemian Rhapsody is fun but entirely superficial, playing it safe rather than trying to be as bold or brazen as its larger-than-life subject. It ultimately relies on the magnetism of Rami Malek’s portrayal of Freddie Mercury and Queen’s bombastic, beloved music to make up for its narrative shortcomings and by-the-numbers direction.
  12. Mary Shelley's fascinating life story is told to contain a few brief glimpses of modern insight, but ultimately weakens under its over-use of conventional, romantic storytelling tropes.

    Cleaner needed serious editing and instead, seems intent on being long and drawn out to prove some sort of point.
  13. 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.
  14. Y2K
    Y2K is a deadly unserious disaster comedy featuring fantastic cyber-monster effects and humor inspired by the time period.
    • 49 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Despite the editing flaws, and the weaker aspects of Branagh's performance and direction, Mary Shelley's Frankenstein is one of the better adaptations of the original, nearly 200-year-old story.
  15. The Cellar has a cool and creepy set up but then fizzles once the answers start arriving.
  16. Insidious: The Last Key may be somewhat engaging but it’s also sloppy and doesn’t amount to much.
    • 49 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    The film works, thanks to a surprisingly fun cast, but its best not to take things too seriously and just enjoy the film for what it is -- a brilliantly madcap slasher send-up.
  17. Mark Wahlberg and Winston Duke's fun chemistry helps elevate the predictable murder-mystery Spenser Confidential.
  18. Thanks to the charming nature of the characters and their genuine good heartedness, Despicable Me 3 manages to be an entertaining enough film to feel like a decent continuation of the previous two chapters.
  19. Taking itself less seriously and having more fun, its relatively short runtime is packed densely with plenty of action, character development, and campy humor. At the same time, it’s a love story about relationships evolving and learning to grow and trust each other.
  20. Please Don’t Destroy: The Treasure of Foggy Mountain has way more laughs than the standard direct-to-streaming comedy, with some gloriously silly running gags and hilarious non sequiturs. But it lacks any real point of view behind that silliness.
  21. While not without charm, the biggest factors working against Army of Thieves are a confused hybrid of horror and heist genre stories and an approach making it unclear which audience – other than the most ardent of Zack Snyder fans – it’s aimed at.
