  1. 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.

    I was mildly intrigued by the plot progression in The Other, but it did not redeem itself from a thematic perspective.
  2. While The Unholy Trinity allows its stars to shine, the cookie-cutter story drags this movie down enough that it's difficult to recommend.
  3. Unfortunately, the filmmaker's style lacks the same panache or intrigue as many other creature feature directors before him, which could partly be attributed to Gator Lake being his feature directorial debut, but also could just be that the movie's modest budget prevented some of his grander ambitions from coming to fruition.
  4. It's fun, and there's nothing inherently wrong with it, but I found myself distracted, turning away from the screen several times because I knew I wasn't missing much. Something Beautiful will come and go, and for most, it won't make much of an impact.
  5. Showcasing a harrowing horror story about the cost of happiness, Best Wishes to All is a terrifying, twisted tale that never lets up on the scary revelations it keeps unearthing.
  6. Watching Echo Valley isn't long at a little over an hour and a half. However, even in that amount of time, I had hoped to witness more of the story and fewer hollow twists.
  7. The action itself is where 11 Rebels' mix of modern and classic filmmaking really shines and had me gripped.
  8. The How to Train Your Dragon live-action remake is a fantastic movie, not just emulating the animated original, but elevating it, all while also delivering an exciting summer blockbuster poised to thrill
  9. Song has a particular knack for telling stories that break down the walls around our hearts and leave us aching in the best way possible.
  10. 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.
  11. Trail of Vengeance is undermined by the fact that a feminist Western cannot succeed without women having meaningful influence behind the scenes. What we are left with is a film that is a hollow imitation of a much-loved genre.

    As a meat-and-potatoes thriller, Dangerous Animals does get the job done, but if it didn't center Jai Courtney's great serial killer performance, it would have absolutely nothing to recommend it to those who aren't already wholly devoted to watching every single thriller that comes to theaters.
  12. The movie shows both the best and worst parts of Trachtenberg making two separate Predator movies simultaneously.
  13. While I wish the movie's tone and story were a little more even, there's definitely enough here for many to enjoy.
  14. 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.
  15. It’s a stunning achievement from the director, one that has sat with me since I saw it, growing in its effectiveness.
  16. When all is said and done, the movie manages to juggle several moving parts with incredible graceful balance.
  17. The actors inhabit these characters well, but they don't have the benefit of juxtaposition with normality to really put their work in context.
  18. It strikes a good balance between heartfelt and fun, and the cast has great chemistry; their interactions are joyful and dynamic.
  19. Amrum doesn't fully confront all the questions it poses, instead serving as a meditation on the ways a child might respond to a world he doesn't fully understand.
  20. Thankfully, Covino and Martin never insult our intelligence by over-explanatory dialogue and lectures. Instead, this talented writing duo focuses on what audiences want: human desire and the wild things we’ll do for connection.

    2021 was an excellent year for slasher fans, and the Fear Street trilogy was one of the big reasons why. Four years later, Fear Street: Prom Queen, which exists in the same town and timeline but functions as a standalone, continues the fun.
  21. It’s thoughtful and quietly devastating. In its insistence to buck conventions of the queer drama, though, it inevitably falls into some of the very traps it hopes to avoid, landing somewhere between expectations and the underwhelming pic it flirts with becoming.
  22. Trier captures so much while saying so little and, in many ways, Sentimental Value feels like the film he's been building toward his entire career.
  23. The most interesting and beautiful piece to this puzzle is the fact that Dillane's performance can steer the audience in any direction emotionally and at any given moment.

    As a first-time director, Hart has certainly shown his aptitude for evoking a strong lead performance and working in tandem with his technical team to create rhythm and tone, making me excited about what he will do next.
  24. Ritchie is a prolific action director, and he leans action here, which is fine. When it's not being distractingly stylized, the action is good. But treasure hunt movies have a nerdy side that sometimes feels undervalued by this film.
  25. The beauty of a musical isn't just in the songs themselves, but the feelings they leave us with as we exit the theater. Leave One Day opts for a cheerier disposition that undermines staying power beyond its infectious tunes.
  26. Some may find this despairing and baffling, but Ducournau finds a strange layer of hope and love beneath all the dust and grime.
