  1. National Champions
    Aided by solid performances, National Champions has a great story, but ultimately its individual parts aren't enough to score the winning touchdown.
  2. Don't Look Up
    Don’t Look Up is a deeply unsettling yet darkly humorous watch. It has just the right amount of comedy and zeal without losing sight of its message or the tension bubbling beneath the surface.
  3. Being the Ricardos
    It’s unfortunate that Being the Ricardos never becomes as interesting as the people it’s centered on. The film offers enough interpersonal drama to keep audiences watching and intrigued, but while Sorkin’s script moves steadily towards the ending, the story wanes and never builds enough momentum to truly impress.
  4. 8-Bit Christmas
    8-Bit Christmas has a lot of heart, but the comedy struggles to stand out in a marketplace full of similar, established, holiday feature classics. Regardless, it offers enough of a unique spin on the genre to satisfy audiences — especially millennials.
  5. The Humans
    Thanks to the writing, directing, and cast, The Humans makes for a disconcerting, haunting, and moving watch. It’s a Thanksgiving family drama that amplifies its characters’ relationships within an eerie, charged space to great effect.
  6. Mixtape
    Mixtape feels familiar and new all at once thanks to its earnest story and central messages of family and grief that will touch viewers of all ages.
  7. Single All the Way
    With an underlying theme of love and acceptance, Single All The Way blossoms into a funny, delightful, and heartwarming romcom gift for all.
  8. Flee
    It's a story about family and preservation, but more than that, Flee is a testament to the broken social systems that allow families to fall through the cracks, leaving them desperate — and as a result of that desperation, vulnerable.
  9. Diary of a Wimpy Kid
    Diary of a Wimpy Kid is a mediocre children's film that — 11 years after the first movie and 14 years after the initial hit book — feels at best derivative, and at worst unnecessary.
  10. Castle Falls
    Sporting skilled choreographed action sequences, Castle Falls offers a mildly satisfying viewing experience despite a weak and muddled storyline.
  11. Bruised
    While formulaic, Bruised beats the odds by being a fairly entertaining & moving sports drama that has everything one would expect from a Berry film.
  12. West Side Story
    West Side Story is visually entrancing, emotional, and the choreography and staging magnetic even when certain aspects of the story don’t always work.
  13. The Princess Switch 3: Romancing the Star
    No matter how ridiculous the plot, and no matter how super Christmas-y these films get, Hudgens will remain the steadfast north star.
  14. 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.
  15. House of Gucci
    House of Gucci boasts strong performances and is hammy enough to be occasionally enjoyable, but falls flat in the overall effectiveness of its story.
  16. Black Friday
    Black Friday is a solid camp thriller that blends hilarious visual gags with some seriously grisly — if problematic — guts and gore.
  17. A House on the Bayou
    Despite its potential, A House on the Bayou has nothing new or interesting to offer, with the final twist further undoing the film's scattered charm.
  18. Home Sweet Home Alone
    Home Sweet Home Alone is an unnecessary sequel that fails to revive the franchise, lacking the fun, charm, and magic of the 1990 Christmas classic.
  19. tick, tick...Boom!
    While Andrew Garfield gives a driven and kinetic performance as Larson, Tick, Tick… Boom! is messy, missing a distinct spark and emotional depth.
  20. 7 Prisoners
    It’s a film that is certainly a must-see, complex and emotionally devastating in its exploration of power and hierarchy.
  21. Encanto
    Though it can't quite break out of the Disney mold, Encanto is greatly aided by a unique story, a delightful cast of characters, and a vital message.
  22. Belfast
    A moving and well-acted film, Belfast explores the decisions families make in the wake of devastation and turmoil; it’s Branagh’s best film in years.
  23. Apex
    Too little attention is granted to Apex’s world-building, and the sci-fi aspect of the film seems more of an afterthought rather than an active factor, making the film a terrible, mediocre letdown.
  24. Lair
    Lair could have been a solid entry in the horror genre had it not been hindered by a muddled narrative and sub-par execution, which only leaves the viewer wishing for something far more substantial than what was given.
  25. Dangerous
    Dangerous is an action movie with a unique premise, but its poor writing, stiff acting, and lack of charm make the 2021 movie borderline unwatchable.
  26. Red Notice
    It has plenty of logic gaps, over-the-top action, and is generally a lot of fun. Red Notice doesn't quite coalesce into something that could become a timeless classic of its own, but it provides plenty of entertainment.
  27. Ida Red
    There needs to be a vision, an ambition to make something good and memorable. Ida Red, unfortunately, seems to fall into the trap of emulating better crime dramas instead of trying to stand out on the merits of its own story.
  28. The Souvenir: Part II
    Raw, powerful, and tonally balanced, The Souvenir Part II brings the fraught tale of a young, grieving artist to a wonderful, empowering finish.
  29. Clifford the Big Red Dog
    Clifford will entertain the youngest viewers, and is destined to be the kind of film preschoolers want to watch again and again, but most audiences will be bored by its stale jokes, two-dimensional characters, and lazy writing.
  30. The Beta Test
    Cummings and McCabe don’t quite balance the purple envelope mystery with the character study of a self-involved man, and the ending takes a sharp left towards confusion, but it is surely something worth watching.
