  1. Fear Street Part One: 1994
    Fear Street Part 1: 1994 is a perfectly fine throwback slasher horror movie, but is weighed down by setting up the rest of Netflix's trilogy.
  2. A Private Life
    Its bizarre blend of genre and tonality comes together in an altogether surprising way; a labyrinth of ceaseless pleasures.
  3. The Last Duel
    A tale of power and misogyny masquerading as honor, the film is engaging and occasionally funny, embracing its themes despite a narrative imbalance.
  4. Invention
    Even if I didn't quite love the film, I can't deny I hope it inspires more to take the same bold risks Hernandez and Stephens did.

    Jay Kelly
    Ultimately, Jay Kelly is a very moving, sentimental film that succeeds effortlessly at telling a great story, but whose attempts to go thematically deeper often feel repetitive.
  6. PG: Psycho Goreman
    Often ridiculous, yet perennially fun, Psycho Goreman is a clever, schlocky genre-mash with characters one cannot help but ultimately root for.
  7. Fresh
    All told, Fresh has a lot of potential even though it doesn’t fully deliver. Cave makes a case for herself in a directorial debut that is ambitious, even when all the pieces don’t seamlessly fit together.
  8. Annette
    Annette is extravagant and ambitious, but it’s also frustrating, pompous and emotionally flat.
  9. The King of Staten Island
    Davidson is a triumph in The King of Staten Island, delivering plenty of fun R-rated humor in an emotionally compelling story about growing up.

    HAIKYU!! The Dumpster Battle
    Fortunately, Haikyu!! The Dumpster Battle is a more than worthy follow-up to the original anime, with its writing, animation, and overall direction being as great as the anime’s, if not greater.
  11. Sovereign
    The movie's memorable moments and tackling of a sensitive, real-world subject were expertly done, something that makes it stand out from other true story films that have been released in recent years.
  12. Shortcomings
    With the help of a fantastic ensemble, including a short but impactful appearance by Veep's Timothy Simons, Shortcomings will have audiences thinking as well as laughing after the credits roll.
  13. Strange Harvest
    Although its shoddy attempts at horror are more immersion-breaking than intended, Strange Harvest is still a monument to how well the true crime genre can be employed for fictional storytelling.
  14. Sissy
    Sissy sacrifices its themes for violence and surface-level explorations of psychological realism, making it as frustrating as it is compulsively fun.
  15. Freaky
    Director Christopher Landon's Freaky is breathlessly stolen by Vince Vaughn, who delivers a character both terrifying and lovable in equal measure.
  16. The Legend of Ochi
    The Legend of Ochi isn't just a throwback in terms of style and narrative. It recalls a time when audiences had longer attention spans and were more willing to suspend their disbelief, and there's no better reason to do so than to experience The Legend of Ochi.
  17. Ponyboi
    It doesn't reinvent the wheel, and it shouldn't have to. What it does prove is that queer stories, more often than not, add new layers to narratives that have been done before.
  18. The Surfer
    The Surfer is a slow-burn film that requires a lot of patience. Cage does his best with limited material, as his character doesn’t have much depth beyond wanting something and aiming to get it.
  19. The Life of Chuck
    The film is poignant and meaningful, with an appreciation for life that reminds us why we live it and how to enjoy it as well.
  20. Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning
    While fans of the Mission: Impossible franchise might shed a tear watching this emotional tribute, all audiences will be swept away by its action.
  21. Black Panther: Wakanda Forever
    Though messy at times, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is an impactful examination of grief aided by excellent character work and exhilarating action.
  22. Chevalier
    Chevalier, about the violinist and composer Joseph Bologne, is magnetic, a historical fiction that elevates itself beyond the conventional biopic to deliver a memorable drama about its subject's life.
  23. The Wrecking Crew
    The Wrecking Crew has finally put Momoa and Bautista on screen together and, thankfully, it largely lives up to the potential of the acting duo.
  24. Desert Road
    There are a lot of things that could have gone wrong, but Triplett directs with confidence, bringing style, intrigue, and character depth to a story that will keep you engaged and holding your breath in suspense for what comes next.
  25. Meanwhile on Earth
    Meanwhile on Earth is an odd blend of genres that distracts from its arguments, even though the unresolved ending isn't really the problem.
  26. Run
    Run showcases the whiplash intensity and cold calculation of Sarah Paulson at her peak, with intense moments that will leave you breathless.
  27. No Man of God
    Generally, No Man of God takes a more mature and nuanced look at human evil, rejecting the impulse to glorify or romanticize figures like Bundy, but also reminding audiences that moral corruption manifests in many forms.
  28. Silver Haze
    Even if some of the finer points of the plot don’t make sense and the pacing starts and stops, the best way to enjoy Silver Haze is not to think about it, but to feel it.
  29. Sunlight
    While I wish the movie's tone and story were a little more even, there's definitely enough here for many to enjoy.
  30. Deep Cover
    It might be pretty forgettable, but thanks to its stellar lead actors — especially Bloom, who goes full psycho in the guise of a career criminal — it’s a fun ride.
