    Opus
    Armed with a glistening beating heart but too stubborn to open itself up, Opus falls into the very trap that it warns against.

    The Electric State
    A power failure from top to bottom, The Electric State takes its revelatory source material and churns out cinematic poison of the most rancid order.

    Black Bag
    Holding itself to the tip-top standard that the talent involved would imply, 'Black Bag' is intelligent, entertaining, and nearly bulletproof.

    Mickey 17
    A Bong Joon-ho film for the fans of 'Okja' and 'Snowpiercer'. Our generation's liveliest, most earnest director is back.

    The Unbreakable Boy
    The Unbreakable Boy will satisfy the terminally vanilla moviegoers, but the rest will see right through its game.

    The Monkey
    The Monkey quite competently makes a monkey out of the human ego, though the comedy choreography is a few bananas short of a bunch.

    The Gorge
    The script is equal parts juicy and loose, but in the hands of Scott Derrickson, 'The Gorge' is ultimately worth gorging oneself on.

    Paddington In Peru
    Olivia Colman goes with this franchise like bread and marmalade, but the 'Paddington' charm of yore mostly goes out the window.

    Captain America: Brave New World
    A committed Anthony Mackie and a game Harrison Ford deserve better than this sadly superficial excuse for a 'Captain America' film whose troubled production is written all over its face.
    • 34 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Love Hurts
    A harmless, unexciting directorial debut that tries to do too much too fast but is thankfully propped up by an always delightful Ke Huy Quan in his first ever leading role.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Companion
    An exciting, intentional ride that never resorts to cheap thrills, instead keeping its story grounded in this day and age's most pertinent topics: lonely men and AI.
    • 38 Metascore
    • 20 Critic Score
    Flight Risk
    From the opening scene, 'Flight Risk's dreary tedium makes a mission out of turning viewers into flight risks in their own right.
  14. Wolf Man
    Despite some innovative ideas about language and body horror, Whannell's 'Wolf Man' is a disappointing follow-up to 'The Invisible Man,' struggling with uneven effects, choppy editing, and underdeveloped themes.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    One Of Them Days
    The buck unfortunately stops at the inspired casting, reducing 'One of Them Days' to another destiny method comedy that might find viewers, but not an audience.
  16. Presence
    While 'Presence' may not deliver traditional horror scares, Soderbergh's innovative ghost's-eye-view approach and strong performances create an intriguing supernatural drama that prioritizes technical brilliance over frights.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl
    Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl is supremely sincere, warmly witty, and laugh-out-loud funny. And really, what else did you expect?
    • 70 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A Complete Unknown
    For viewers who want to understand Bob Dylan as an artist, A Complete Unknown more than fits the bill. It’s an exemplary character study that doesn’t skimp on the hits that made the musician an enduring icon. The film is unabashedly itself, just as its subject matter is.
  19. Nosferatu
    Robert Eggers' reimagining of the 1922 classic "Nosferatu" delivers a visually striking but uneven Gothic horror experience, elevated by Lily-Rose Depp's captivating performance and stunning second half.
    • 56 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Mufasa: The Lion King
    It may not reach the heights of Disney classics of yesteryear, but Mufasa: The Lion King is a movie worth watching for the clear attempt to turn it into something it could never have been.
    • 56 Metascore
    • 30 Critic Score
    Sonic the Hedgehog 3
    Falling despairingly into the franchise trap of meta-irony, Sonic the Hedgehog 3 will be remembered as an attempt of self-sabotage.
    • 35 Metascore
    • 20 Critic Score
    Kraven the Hunter
    An artistically and emotionally hollow shell of a superhero film, 'Kraven the Hunter' leaves little for Sony to take pride in.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Carry-On
    Dramatically satisfying with a plethora of engaging twists, 'Carry-On' sticks a firm landing with maximum turbulence.
    • 54 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim
    Well-equipped to succeed but ill-prepared to do so, 'The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim' drowns its potential in a far too hesitant narrative.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Maria
    Maria is a triumph and the culmination of a trilogy that has become a definitive and essential dissection of the celebrity biopic genre.
  26. Nightbitch
    A stay-at-home mother's slow descent into lycanthropy serves as a metaphor for maternal struggles in this uneven adaptation that never fully commits to its provocative premise, despite Amy Adams' raw and transformative performance.
    • 60 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    That Christmas
    Its unique narrative approach stumbles as often as it shines, but an endearing mission statement makes 'That Christmas' a worthwhile family watch.

    The Piano Lesson
    Wilson’s work finds a foothold in cinema in a stunning debut by Malcolm Washington and the moving performances from all the actors.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Wicked
    A brightly colored extravaganza, 'Wicked' is a monumental feat in the stage-to-screen lineage, with stunning sets, sharp choreography, and delightful musical numbers. Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande gracefully lead the film to great heights, and Jon M. Chu's tasteful direction raises hopes for 'Part Two.'
    • 34 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Red One
    A grandiose action-comedy, with an over-reliance on CGI, and not a crumb of Christmas charm.
    • 85 Metascore
    • 100 Critic Score
    A Real Pain
    Pivoting gut-punching drama and whip-smart comedy around a career-best turn from Kieran Culkin, 'A Real Pain' is a real treat of the highest caliber.
  32. Gladiator II
    While Ridley Scott delivers spectacular gladiatorial action and Denzel Washington steals every scene, 'Gladiator 2's derivative plot and inability to escape its predecessor's shadow prevent it from achieving the same legendary status as the original.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Heretic
    Heretic is a genuinely unsettling psychological horror, but it suffers from having one too many red herrings.
  34. Juror #2
    In "Juror #2," Clint Eastwood delivers his best directorial effort in years, crafting a morally complex courtroom drama that's elevated by Nicholas Hoult's compelling performance and a thought-provoking premise.
    • 39 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Here
    Here plays not only by its own rules, but a whole other cinematic ballgame, and those who take the time to learn its language will be immaculately rewarded.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Conclave
    A pointed puzzle-box that never takes its finger off its stormy emotions, 'Conclave' is as softly sensational as it is sweepingly satisfying.
    • 41 Metascore
    • 30 Critic Score
    Venom: The Last Dance
    Boarding the long-steamless train of the infamous SSU, Venom: The Last Dance spreads the franchise's desperate joylessness to a nauseating degree.
  38. Allswell in New York
    Flashes of narrative inspiration and solid performances are not enough to rescue Allswell from mediocrity, as momentum remains in short supply.
  39. Smile 2
    While it may not break new ground, Smile 2 delivers a thrilling sequel that surpasses its predecessor, thanks to Naomi Scott's tour de force performance and Parker Finn's improved direction.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Woman of the Hour
    Anna Kendrick's directorial debut offers a refreshing twist on a tried and true formula by contextualizing a serial killer's wrath within the crueler misogynistic traditions that enable it.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    The Apprentice
    The Apprentice forgoes subtlety in favor of skewering its subject and eventually reveals that deep down this biopic was a horror movie all along.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 100 Critic Score
    Piece By Piece
    Piece by Piece, much like its decorated subject, blows right past refusing to play by the rules and straight up doesn't acknowledge them, and it's all the best for it.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    We Live in Time
    We Live in Time packs an emotional, surprisingly meditative punch in the form of one of the most beautiful romance films of the last decade.
    • 60 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Saturday Night
    Saturday Night plays with the sharp erraticism of an improv comedian's neurons, but it quite simply doesn't believe in itself the way Lorne did about the film's subject.
  45. Terrifier 3
    Terrifier 3 marks a significant evolution in the franchise. Director Damien Leone delivers the most vicious iteration of Art the Clown yet, while also maturing as a filmmaker and providing a solid foundation for future installments.
  46. The Outrun
    While still a fascinating filmmaking exercise, this is, unfortunately, one of those movies you can recommend to everyone. Still, The Outrun is a vehicle for Ronan’s talent, with her driving fast towards awards season.
  47. The Platform 2
    The Platform 2 does more than follow the first movie recipe, spicing things up with new ethical conundrums and serving a new batch of intriguing puzzle pieces.
  48. Joker: Folie à Deux
    In Joker: Folie à Deux, director Todd Phillips's attempt to blend courtroom drama with musical elements results in a disjointed and sluggish narrative that fails to capitalize on its potential.
    • 47 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Salem's Lot
    The breathtaking visuals and bloody scares are not enough to bring this adaptation back from the dead.
    • 85 Metascore

    The Wild Robot
    Equal parts eye-and-ear candy and carbs for the soul, 'The Wild Robot' is animation's finest hour of the year.
    • 60 Metascore

    Wolfs
    George Clooney and Brad Pitt fail to bring the big guns out on 'Wolfs,' but are just the right amount of endearing for streaming success.
    • 55 Metascore
    • 100 Critic Score
    Megalopolis
    Megalopolis is at once one of the least-accessible films of the year, but the sheer depth and insanity of its accomplishment is one we may never see again.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Transformers One
    Even its mistakes hardly qualify as mistakes, and the intelligence with which 'Transformers One' carries itself as an IP film easily cements it as an instant classic.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    His Three Daughters
    In His Three Daughters, Azazel Jacobs provides the very unique joy of a simple, yet perfectly executed story about universal human experiences.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Speak No Evil
    It pulls too many punches while being too keen on delivering others, but Speak No Evil's mighty cast and swath of subtleties seal a fine deal indeed.
  56. Uglies
    With a weak script and choppy editing, "Uglies" struggles to bring its dystopian world to life, wasting the potential of its cast and source material.
    • 62 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Beetlejuice Beetlejuice
    Beetlejuice Beetlejuice is an exercise — or exorcise — in studio IP extension that is so strange and unusual as to be almost review-proof. It's messy and overstuffed, but its quirky charms may well win you over.

    AfrAId
    Alexa, send this underbaked, untethered failure back to the cutting room.
    • 55 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    The Thicket
    Impeccably casted and narratively confident, one really only wishes that 'The Thicket' spread its wings just a bit more. Dinklage has great taste in passion projects, and is great in them, too.
    • 30 Metascore
    • 20 Critic Score
    The Crow
    Sometimes, something so bad happens that a terrible sadness is carried with it and the soul can't rest. 'The Crow' is one such bad something.
  61. Blink Twice
    Blink Twice is a stylish psychological thriller about sexism in the #MeToo era. While its plot may feel familiar, Zoë Kravitz's confident direction and Channing Tatum's surprising performance elevate the film above its occasionally on-the-nose script.
  62. The Union
    Netflix's The Union is a formulaic spy thriller that wastes its promising premise. Despite the star power of Mark Wahlberg and Halle Berry, the film suffers from a predictable plot, mediocre action sequences, and shallow character development.
  63. Alien: Romulus
    While its dedication to fan service occasionally holds it back, 'Alien: Romulus' is still a thrilling addition to the franchise, thanks to director Fede Álvarez's dedication to visceral practical effects and new twists to the canon.
  64. Jackpot!
    Jackpot! delivers a delicious deranged mix of dark comedy and thrill ride. While its silliness may not appeal to all, the film's clever premise, strong performances by Awkwafina and John Cena, and well-timed humor make for a great experience.
  65. Skincare
    In Skincare, Elizabeth Banks leads a tense, socially conscious thriller that cleverly blends suspense and social commentary to create an engaging, if uneven, experience.
    • 48 Metascore

    The Instigators
    While surfacing sometimes thanks to a decades-old friendship, 'The Instigators' remains a tonally chaotic sinking boat.

    One of the best video game movies ever is buried far, far, far beneath this foul, foul, foul thing.

    It Ends with Us
    Anchored by a mighty Blake Lively, It Ends with Us brings Colleen Hoover's story to smartly cinematic and tremendously touching life.
  69. Cuckoo
    Cuckoo blends B-movie energy with arthouse ambition, delivering a fresh horror concept bolstered by Hunter Schafer's standout performance. While its scattered storytelling may divide audiences, the film's atmospheric tension makes it a worthy watch.
    • 34 Metascore
    • 30 Critic Score
    Harold and the Purple Crayon
    Immaturely crafted and an insult to children's media, 'Harold and the Purple Crayon' should have gone back to the drawing board, and perhaps stayed there.

    Deadpool & Wolverine
    It's a fun time at the movies for genuine fans of Marvel superheroes who have been keeping up with the franchise for the last couple of decades. It won't really land for anyone else, and that's okay.

    Mothers' Instinct
    Perhaps poetically, Hathaway and Chastain's instincts are the immaculate saving grace for those of 'Mothers' Instinct's story.
    • 53 Metascore

    Fly Me to the Moon
    A powerhouse screenwriting debut, inspired direction, and a Scarlett Johansson-shaped heartbeat ensures that all systems are go for 'Fly Me to the Moon.'
    • 65 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Twisters
    Powell's screen presence is undeniable. Unfortunately, so is the lethal lack of confidence with which 'Twisters' tends to present itself.
  77. Longlegs
    Thanks to its meticulous Craftsmanship, unsettling narrative, and Nicolas Cage's most harrowing role yet, 'Longlegs' is a masterclass in psychological horror that lingers long after the credits roll.
  78. Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F
    Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F struggles to balance nostalgia and reinvention, with Eddie Murphy's charm unable to save it from a muddled script.
    • 49 Metascore
    • 30 Critic Score
    Horizon: An American Saga - Chapter 1
    Unless you are resolutely, shamelessly committed to the exact same palate and moodboard as Costner himself, this first entry in the 'Horizon: An American Saga' series is a death sentence.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 100 Critic Score
    Fancy Dance
    The awe-inspiring strength of 'Fancy Dance' is as softly sensational as it is proudly singular, and Gladstone is breathtaking throughout; Indigenous voices are a necessity to filmmaking.

    • 70 Critic Score
    A Family Affair
    A Family Affair is far from revolutionary filmmaking but it is a near-perfect sample of its genre. It’s ballsy and funny without being over the top, and it’s got an unexpected fire burning behind each of its characters.
  82. A Quiet Place: Day One
    A Quiet Place: Day One is a gripping prequel that balances emotional depth with thrilling suspense. Lupita Nyong'o's standout performance and the film's fresh take on the franchise make it a must-watch, despite some predictable plot points.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    The Bikeriders
    Jeff Nichols' masterminding could have sealed the deal on its own, but thanks to this cast, 'The Bikeriders' roars.
  84. Kinds of Kindness
    Yorgos Lanthimos' Kinds of Kindness is a unique, thought-provoking anthology exploring human kindness's dark side. With stellar performances, the film's surreal and unsettling narrative will captivate long-term fans but will alienate some viewers.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Inside Out 2
    Its borderline-necessary messaging doesn't render it completely invulnerable, but should Pixar be up to it, they've earned an 'Inside Out 3'.
  86. Bad Boys: Ride or Die
    Bad Boys: Ride or Die leans heavily on nostalgia and fan service. While Smith and Lawrence's chemistry remains, the film's predictable plot and over-reliance on past glories make it a forgettable experience for all but diehard fans.
    • 46 Metascore

    The Watchers
    The excitement with which one can anticipate Ishana's next directorial effort, is matched only by the dread of anticipating her next screenwriting effort.

    Atlas
    Much like the AI we know in the real world, 'Atlas' is unable to turn its wealth of potential into much of anything worth engaging with.
  89. Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga
    While 'Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga' is highly entertaining, it fails to capture the chrome-painted perfection of 'Mad Max: Fury Road.' Instead, we end up with a bloated epic that focuses too much on world building and not enough on its titular character.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Hit Man
    Much like its protagonist, 'Hit Man' is an amalgam of personalities, not entirely one thing or the other, but a combination of genres that, through careful writing, each manages to maintain their essence throughout.
  91. IF
    While 'IF's colorful creatures and set pieces might offer a temporary distraction, the weak script and superficial world building crumbles into dust at any sign of scrutiny.
  92. The Strangers: Chapter 1
    The Strangers: Chapter 1 just feels like an overstretched introduction.

    Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes
    While the final result is a film that’s a bit rougher around the edges than it needed to be, Kingdom quite confidently seals the deal through the animus of Noa; a fantastic protagonist brought to life by the young Owen Teague, whose strikingly intelligent motion-capture performance suggests a wisdom for the craft far beyond his years.

    The Fall Guy
    As a blockbuster, The Fall Guy flies. As an ode to stuntmen, it soars. But as a movie that simply loves being a movie, it towers quite magnificently above most.

    Unfrosted
    Jerry Seinfeld's directorial debut is a family-friendly, overstuffed, unoriginal comedy film where the weakness of its central plot is masked by myriad celebrity cameos, including 15 different stand-up comics, characters all but doing backflips on screen and a lot of product placement.

    The Idea of You
    It is the fairytale you desperately desire and the real-life truth that you detest rolled into a fantasy-charged ride that crashes at the last moment, but doesn't burst your pipe dream of being in the driver seat.

    Rebel Moon Part 2: The Scargiver
    Put the shovel down while you can, Zack Snyder; 'The Scargiver' is a humiliating addition to the sci-fi genre, Netflix, and its viewers' memories.
  100. Abigail
    Abigail offers enough blood and guts to deliver an entertaining horror flick, but fails to tie all of its plot threads together in a satisfying way. In addition, the marketing for the movie reveals too much, spoiling its most shocking surprises.
