  1. Ricky Stanicky
    Stanicky is a character to cheer for, and Cena's energy in the role makes Ricky Stanicky an entertaining watch with some surprising depth to it.
  2. Next Goal Wins
    It’s goofy and relies heavily on common tropes, failing to offer insight into the players as people outside their team.
  3. Praise This
    Praise This is wildly uneven but not entirely unenjoyable. There is enough here that makes the film perfectly fine. It is formulaic, but its earnestness and impactful narrative will touch many.
  4. Clean
    The film is heavy-handed in its attempt to be subtle and even Brody’s score can’t save the day, but Clean has its moments.
  5. La Dolce Villa
    La Dolce Villa is a feel-good film that forgoes proper tension-building for a more headache-free delivery. The result is a mixed bag that I enjoyed occasionally, though its inability to spark a greater emotional reaction is the film’s greatest weakness.
  6. The Old Guard 2
    The Old Guard 2 is a film that feels longer than it should be and not long enough. It strikes an odd balance, but there’s luckily more here that works than doesn’t, even if the plot is thin.
  7. End of the Road
    In End of the Road, Shelton transforms an already compelling script into one about family, motherhood, and survival. And it is nothing short of entertaining and refreshing.
  8. The Gates
    With its molasses pacing and bland direction, this film is an absolutely forgettable dud.
  9. Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City
    Resident Evil: Welcome To Raccoon City is a fun and faithful adaptation of the games it is based on, but is lacking in character substance.
  10. The Long Night
    When one thinks The Long Night is walking in circles, it breaks off from the beaten path just in time to give viewers exactly the movie that was sold.
  11. Bloodshot
    Bloodshot puts a surprisingly clever spin on the superhero origin story that's fun and funny, but Diesel's performance ultimately leaves it lacking.
  12. Prom Dates
    It's entertaining, and there are a few chuckles to be had. One can appreciate the referential and situational humor as they are timely and apt for the characters. Lester and Gentry are a winning combo.
  13. Fistful of Vengeance
    The best action sequence comes at the end, which bolsters the film's best use of camera movement and editing to highlight the fight choreography.
  14. Night Swim
    The film isn’t trying to hit us over the head with what it’s trying to say, but its themes have depth. When exploring career and glory vs. family, regret and the lengths one will go to return to a life that’s no longer tenable, McGuire gets in a few good swings. If only the horror lived up to these aspects of the film.
  15. The Beast Within
    This story isn't the flashiest werewolf tale, but it is worth seeing thanks to a fresh perspective. As flawed as the story may be, the story from a child's eyes offers a new and unique entry point for the subgenre.
  16. Choose or Die
    Those who may be new to the genre or merely want to disengage for a little bit will find merit in Choose or Die. But for bona fide horror fans, the derivativeness and the flatness of the execution is too much to tolerate.
  17. 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.
  18. Chariot
    Stuck somewhere between puzzle film and quirky comedy, between imitating David Lynch and parodying him, it draws its audience in with the overtures of a compelling mystery only to leave them stranded in what is fundamentally a failure of tone.
  19. A Family Affair
    While it has its weak spots, A Family Affair holds together well enough to entertain.
  20. Madres
    Madres is extremely fragmented and painfully subpar, wasting a chance to tell an intriguing, nuanced story that is still an issue in the present.
  21. The Strangers: Chapter 1
    The Strangers: Chapter 1 ends with a cliffhanger that paves the way for Chapter 2 , and that, I feel, is where this new trilogy will really get the chance to take off.
  22. Where the Crawdads Sing
    Where the Crawdads Sing stumbles a bit in its transition from page to screen, though it is aided by a great lead performance.
  23. The Old Way
    Donowho’s western tale follows a typical formula, but there are plenty of laughs and smiles to be had throughout this familiar story.
  24. A Big Bold Beautiful Journey
    A rousing story about finding someone and falling in love this is not — nor does it truly contend with the need for human connection very well.
  25. Retribution
    Retribution is comically familiar, yet that familiarity breeds a sense of comfort for the average movie watcher who wants something not too complicated or tedious.
  26. Back to Black
    With the documentary Amy painting a more detailed and intimate portrait of the singer’s life, it’s hard to recommend such a stilted, unimaginative biopic that doesn’t do Winehouse any justice.
  27. The Takedown
    It does not reinvent the wheel, but it engages viewers on a visual and cerebral level. There is a precarious balance between the heavy themes of the script and the upbeat nature of this Bad Boys-esque action film, but somehow it sticks the landing.
  28. The New Mutants
    The New Mutants tries to offer a compelling blend of teen drama, horror and X-Men mythos, but ultimately fails to deliver a good entry in any genre.
  29. Last Days
    Last Days is as frustrating to watch as it is to try to understand this avoidable tragedy.
  30. Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins
    With energetic and thrilling action, Snake Eyes is a fun summer blockbuster, even if the movie's haphazard franchise setup leaves much to be desired.
