  1. Monstrous
    Ricci’s assured and robust lead performance helps build upon some exciting ideas in the script and is ultimately the reason to watch. She is thoroughly captivating and, while the film never reaches her level of excellence, it is still a relatively fun, wonky ride.
  2. Flux Gourmet
    The film's comedy is the cherry on top of a disgusting meal one has to hear to believe.
  3. Infamous
    Infamous has a good balance of fun thrills and compelling drama that make for an entertaining watch.

    My Secret Santa
    Though rooted in familiar territory, it lands on an unexpectedly resonant note, blending humor, heartache, and hard-won connection into a conclusion that works marginally better than its formula suggests.
  5. The Little Things
    Although helmed by Washington’s visceral performance & nostalgia-addled slow-burn, The Little Things eventually falters due to its own clichéd tropes.
  6. The Boss Baby: Family Business
    Overall, The Boss Baby: Family Business is a fun way for adults to spend some time with their kids, and in that regard, the movie completely succeeds in its purpose.
  7. LaRoy, Texas
    There's an aloofness to the violence that gets more morbidly funny as the film goes on, but LaRoy, Texas does not trust its darker sensibilities and the last 15 minutes drift back into a conventional lane and away from the bizarre and fiendish tone that was unexpectedly working up until that point.
  8. Enola Holmes
    Enola Holmes is a little overwrought, but Millie Bobby Brown's charming heroine and Henry Cavill's fun Sherlock pull off all the twists and turns.
  9. Elvis
    Elvis seems perfectly content being a glitzy, bejeweled extravaganza, even when the film’s nearly three-hour runtime leaves its energy — which never fully recovers after the first half — waning by the end.
  10. Golden Years
    In the end, the movie successfully relays the importance of actualizing oneself, but wraps its narrative up too neatly, bypassing the messier reality of profound reinvention after decades of normalized routines have clouded one’s passions.
  11. All You Need Is Kill
    ALL YOU NEED IS KILL is not a film that'll have you scratching your head for meaning. It wears its empathy and its plea for life on its sleeve like a badge of honor. Admirable though that is, that directness does translate into threadbare writing.
  12. The Black Phone
    The result is a beautifully shot and well-acted live-action short story, but one that's missing enough connective tissue, fresh ideas, and time spent between its characters to produce a lasting feature film experience.
  13. Bob Marley: One Love
    Bob Marley: One Love won't knock your socks off, but there is enough care put into crafting the narrative that turns it into a lovely viewing experience overall.
  14. Dance First
    Dance First won’t strike a chord with everyone, but it's also not intended for mainstream appeal, and those who connect with it will do so deeply.
  15. Nutcrackers
    With Stiller at the center, Nutcrackers is a solid, if not incredibly memorable, holiday effort.
  16. Poser
    While it ultimately reveals everything too late, the film still feels fresh and, unlike plenty of what is released today (on podcasts and in theaters), actually does have something to say.
  17. M3GAN 2.0
    M3GAN 2.0 doesn't lose this completely, but the more polished and grown-up world doesn't fit as easily into the silly sense of humor that made M3GAN so popular.
  18. We Have a Ghost
    Landon's latest will be best remembered for its multiple laugh-out-loud set pieces, and with the craftsmanship and performances on display, viewers will likely be willing to forgive its less-impactful stretches.
  19. Star Wars: Episode IX - The Rise of Skywalker
    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker gets bogged down in exposition and course-correcting The Last Jedi, but does have some fun moments and fan service.
  20. Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F
    The return of Axel will satisfy fans of the franchise, and it might encourage those who are just tuning in to watch the original trilogy, if only to watch one of Murphy’s most significant roles from the 80s, a true golden era for the multi-hyphenate entertainer.

    Star Trek: Section 31
    Overall, Star Trek: Section 31 can best be described as a fun time. And if it sometimes feels a bit hollow, well, not every Star Trek story has to have profound commentary on what it means to be human.
  22. I Saw the TV Glow
    The film gives good insight into the confusion and fear we may face when exploring our sense of self.
  23. Whitney Houston: I Wanna Dance With Somebody
    I Wanna Dance with Somebody celebrates the star that captured the hearts of many fans around the world. And through a great performance by Ackie, this film has the ability to do the same, even if it sticks to genre rules.

    Leo
    While Leo isn’t always smooth sailing, an air of authenticity and flashes of greatness make the movie an overall delight.
  25. The Drop
    The film's events feel natural, so the audience doesn’t have to dig deep to understand and relate to the characters. Combined with a hilarious cast who are all on the same page, The Drop delivers an entertaining enough viewing experience.
  26. Never Let Go
    The horror film has an engrossing premise that remains engaging even in its lulls.
  27. Elevation
    Elevation comes across as a mild copycat rather than a compelling project that stands on its own merits.
  28. Ballerina
    Her first outing is largely a rush of violent, thrilling action, entertainingly served up for the big screen, but it isn't without its problems. I just hope that if this killer gets to dance again, she's better served by a more streamlined narrative.
  29. Rustin
    It may not be the best biopic ever told, but people will certainly walk away from Rustin more educated, inspired to be the change they want to see in the world, and grateful that movies like this are willing to tell the truth about buried history.
  30. Love Hurts
    The film is ultimately an action comedy that is as sickly saccharine and over-the-top as Valentine’s Day itself. For a cool hour and 23 minutes, Love Hurts allows us to enjoy every minute of its absurdity, and you’ll never look at a boba straw the same way ever again.
