  1. Delivering the blood, gore, and guts you would expect from the classics of the genre, Ziam has no intention of reinventing anything, unabashedly leaning into the tropes of these stories that audiences know well.
  2. Abraham’s Boys wants to drive home a message about violent legacies and the never-ending cycle of generational trauma, but the payoff feels incongruous with the setup, the final kill feels unearned, and the B-movie execution makes it unintentionally funny.
  3. Brick is still a gripping thriller. It's well-made, but there is something lacking overall that could have been made better by diving deeper into the relationships of the central characters.
  4. 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.
  5. It's elevated by a captivating lead performance from Sanz, whose terror when events start ramping up feels very realistic.
  6. The movie is Davidtz's feature debut. What she crafts is something imperfect, but as nuanced as a discussion of this topic from the white perspective can be.
  7. It is focused on its small-scale story about the main characters who are burdened by pain and dead-ends, but carefully works in the broader injustices it wants the audience to see.

    The movie's boldness helps craft an entertaining ride that is incredibly zany. Is this among the best shark movies? Absolutely not. But by the time Hot Spring Shark Attack was over, I couldn't help but smile.
  8. Before We Forget (originally titled Duino) is a refreshingly intimate film and a classic gay yearning story. It has some twists that subvert genre expectations for an even more staggering emotional effect.
  9. Because of some questionable decisions, the film's key messages aren’t as effective as they could be.
  10. James Gunn's Superman movie launches the DC Universe in spectacular fashion, with a fun-filled romp that requires refreshingly little homework.
  11. 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.
  12. Going back to basics was the best thing it could have done. With a straightforward narrative and characters we care about who don't overcomplicate the plot, the film crafts something more timeless.
  13. 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.
  14. Without Cena and Elba’s committed and charming performances, as well as great supporting turns from Considine and Carla Gugino as Vice President Elizabeth Kirk, Heads of State wouldn’t be worth discussing
  15. Sorry, Baby is the kind of movie that will linger and stick with you. It is far more than a story about trauma; it's also about friendship and growing up, concepts that will feel deeply relatable to anyone.
  16. 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.
  17. It's carefully crafted and spectacularly emotional.
  18. Don't Tell Larry is a dark comedy that tries hard to deliver a unique brand of comedy, only to fall short in the storytelling.

    While I do appreciate it when a film shoots for the moon and tries something different, Alma and the Wolf missed.
  19. Though it's more of a reboot than a sequel, 28 Years Later pays homage to the original film without sacrificing its originality & fresh spirit.
  20. While the story at the center of it all proves intriguing, the execution dulls the narrative to the point of ruin.
  21. The setting and the drama of Bonjour Tristesse complement each other, but the finale is incongruous when the premise and the presentation seem to be on different terms. While the movie has a rich personality, it is moderately aimless and should have better established how it wanted to be different from the original.
  22. Sadly, Diablo is not a special B-movie, but it is one with great fights.
  23. We’re only halfway through the year, but I wouldn’t be surprised if Bride Hard ends up being the worst movie of 2025.
  24. By reflecting the difficulties of life with the hope that comes from one's passion, this film does a great job at emphasizing how, even in the face of insurmountable adversity, passion can triumph over even the toughest of times.
  25. The Queen of My Dreams depicts complicated love amid familial conflicts and an adoration of classic Bollywood cinema.
  26. It might be a Formula One promotional movie at its core, but at least it’s a damn good film.
  27. Pixar's latest big screen adventure, Elio, is a big-hearted tale about friendship, family, and connection, and it will both delight and wreck you.
  28. The things that are wrong with Our Times make it too wild to pack a punch, but a better version of it certainly exists in one timeline or another.
