Hedda (2025) 89% 5/5 EDIT “Hedda is a sensational adaptation, standing firm on the idea that modern adaptations of classic works are indeed made better when reinterpreted through contemporary worldviews.” – Muses of Media Nov 7, 2025 Full Review Frankenstein (2025) 85% 5/5 EDIT “Frankenstein is an elegant, compassionate adaptation of a beloved text with unmatched influence. Del Toro doesn’t simply outdo himself with the presentation; truly, the film is a spectacle for the eyes.” – Muses of Media Oct 18, 2025 Full Review No Other Choice (2025) 97% 5/5 EDIT “No Other Choice is a poignant project underneath the shocks and laughs. There is a genuine story about the lengths one will go to secure their family’s future.” – Muses of Media Sep 24, 2025 Full Review Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery (2025) 92% 4/5 EDIT “Wake Up Dead Man will either be looked at fondly for its change of pace or will be dismissed for not replicating the novelty of the first film, which isn’t actually fair to it at all.” – Muses of Media Sep 22, 2025 Full Review The Wedding Banquet (2025) 86% 5/5 EDIT “The Wedding Banquet has all the qualities of an instant classic: funny, honest, authentic, and emotionally satisfying.” – Muses of Media Jul 24, 2025 Full Review The Colors Within (2024) 92% 4.5/5 EDIT “Naoko Yamada and Reiko Yoshida’s collaborations always yield outstanding results, and The Colors Within is no exception. It is vibrant and emotionally satisfying. ” – Muses of Media Jul 24, 2025 Full Review M3GAN 2.0 (2025) 57% 4.5/5 EDIT “Did we need a sequel to M3GAN? No. Am I glad that this creative team took the gamble with M3GAN 2.0? Hell yeah! Do we need another sequel? Please, no. It is always better to end on a high note and not try another gamble with an uncertain outcome.” – Muses of Media Jul 24, 2025 Full Review Escape From the 21st Century (2024) 8/10 EDIT “Escape From the 21st Century is a fantastic time. It’s wacky, inventive, and all around very entertaining. An hour and a half of pure bliss.” – Screen Rant Jun 9, 2025 Full Review Universal Language (2024) 95% 9/10 EDIT “Matthew Rankin avoids all expectations and goes for a visual and narrative approach that is constantly unexpected and dizzyingly charming.” – Screen Rant Apr 11, 2025 Full Review Cold Wallet (2024) 65% 8/10 EDIT “Cold Wallet succeeds at getting us to feel the heat of the situation, all while emphasizing the cold, hard reality that awaits our protagonists.” – Screen Rant Feb 28, 2025 Full Review My Fault: London (2025) 40% 5/10 EDIT “There's certainly an audience for this particular brand of YA romances, and My Fault: London fits comfortably into that. ” – Screen Rant Feb 12, 2025 Full Review Inheritance (2025) 55% 6/10 EDIT “Despite its flaws, Phoebe Dynevor carries the film with an assured performance, welcoming the challenge of filming guerrilla-style.” – Screen Rant Jan 23, 2025 Full Review Wish You Were Here (2025) 33% 5/10 EDIT “Our leads manage to effectively tell a story about how love is always the right path, no matter how much it may hurt. ” – Screen Rant Jan 19, 2025 Full Review Back in Action (2025) 31% 5/10 EDIT “Regardless of the film's quality, the project is engaging enough, with two charismatic stars coming together for a quaint, family-friendly adventure. ” – Screen Rant Jan 17, 2025 Full Review From Ground Zero (2024) 98% 9/10 EDIT “What carries the film is the deep human connection. A window is not just being opened... we are being transported into these effective moments.” – Screen Rant Jan 3, 2025 Full Review The Return (2024) 78% 8/10 EDIT “The Return is a somber affair, opting for a meditative storytelling approach over a flamboyant showing of VFX, which elevates its intimate story. ” – Screen Rant Dec 6, 2024 Full Review That Christmas (2024) 67% 8/10 EDIT “The film's winning aspects rest on its dynamic voice cast, which adds texture and vibrancy to this seaside town and its story's enduring sweetness.” – Screen Rant Dec 5, 2024 Full Review Sweethearts (2024) 62% 5/10 EDIT “Despite subverting expectations and being edgy in its approach, the lack of energy and fearlessness keeps this story from reaching its full potential.” – Screen Rant Nov 26, 2024 Full Review Elevation (2024) 55% 6/10 EDIT “Elevation doesn't elicit too great excitement, there's something reliable about this story & cast that would make for a potentially successful series.” – Screen Rant Nov 7, 2024 Full Review The Line (2023) 79% 3.5/5 EDIT “The chaotic nature of frat life makes for a showcase for up-and-coming filmmakers like Ethan Berger, who expertly captures the frenetic atmosphere. ” – Screen Rant Oct 17, 2024 Full Review The Deb (2024) 75% 3.5/5 EDIT “Rebel Wilson leans into her comic roots with The Deb, a cheeky, outrageous musical comedy that leaves a strong impression.” – Screen Rant Sep 15, 2024 Full Review Riff Raff (2024) 55% 1.5/5 EDIT “Riff Raff is bleak, mean-spirited, and simply not good, and the script offers its very talented cast nothing but one shameful joke after another.” – Screen Rant Sep 15, 2024 Full Review All of You (2024) 71% 3/5 EDIT “The film has two major things going for it: Goldstein and Poots' casting and their characters' chemistry.” – Screen Rant Sep 14, 2024 Full Review Saturday Night (2024) 77% 2/5 EDIT “Reitman is hung up on showing us how SNL's debut came to be rather than establishing the people who made the series a cultural phenomenon.” – Screen Rant Sep 13, 2024 Full Review 40 Acres (2024) 89% 3.5/5 EDIT “The film has some heartfelt moments and themes, and while dark and violent, it is, in the end, an uplifting story about family, legacy, and hope.” – Screen Rant Sep 12, 2024 Full Review
