Natchez (2025) 100% 4.5/5 EDIT “Natchez is a hauntingly compelling look at the beauty and brutality of America’s past.” – Fish Jelly Films (YouTube) Jan 28, 2026 Full Review The Moment (2026) 57% 3/5 EDIT “Charli XCX shines in this gritty, darkly humorous look at artistic integrity versus corporate pressure—though The Moment loses some momentum when it matters most.” – Fish Jelly Films (YouTube) Jan 28, 2026 Full Review Return to Silent Hill (2026) 18% 1.5/5 EDIT “Inspired horror peeks through, but Return to Silent Hill is undone by stiff acting, overused effects, bad wigs, and a frustratingly foolish lead.” – Fish Jelly Films (YouTube) Jan 24, 2026 Full Review Mercy (2026) 24% 2.5/5 EDIT “Even with a dreadful script, Mercy moves fast enough to hold your attention — once.” – Fish Jelly Films (YouTube) Jan 22, 2026 Full Review Killer Whale (2026) 22% 0.5/5 EDIT “A ridiculous premise crying out for camp, Killer Whale is oddly humorless, void of thrills, and dragged down by bargain-bin visuals.” – Fish Jelly Films (YouTube) Jan 16, 2026 Full Review The Rip (2026) 80% 2.5/5 EDIT “Apparently, The Rip has a remarkable true story buried inside it, but it drags to the good part and gets lost in muddled chaos along the way.” – Fish Jelly Films (YouTube) Jan 16, 2026 Full Review 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple (2026) 93% 4/5 EDIT “More violent, more affecting, and more memorable than its predecessor, The Bone Temple is elevated by Ralph Fiennes’ unforgettable turn.” – Fish Jelly Films (YouTube) Jan 15, 2026 Full Review A Private Life (2025) 81% 3.5/5 EDIT “Jodie Foster shines in A Private Life, a deceptively gripping character study masquerading as a thriller.” – Fish Jelly Films (YouTube) Jan 14, 2026 Full Review Lover Girl (1997) 2/5 EDIT “Lover Girl may be scrappy, but its disturbing story never feels legitimate, undone by ugly visuals, clunky dialogue, and questionable acting.” – Fish Jelly Films (YouTube) Jan 12, 2026 Full Review Greenland 2: Migration (2026) 50% 1.5/5 EDIT “A ludicrous, corny post-apocalyptic fairy tale road trip, Greenland 2: Migration struggles to justify its own existence.” – Fish Jelly Films (YouTube) Jan 9, 2026 Full Review Primate (2025) 79% 2.5/5 EDIT “Primate piles on the brutality, but without tension or logic, its thin plot can’t hold the carnage together.” – Fish Jelly Films (YouTube) Jan 9, 2026 Full Review Dead Man's Wire (2025) 91% 3/5 EDIT “More fun than fact, Dead Man’s Wire is a campy good time.” – Fish Jelly Films (YouTube) Jan 6, 2026 Full Review We Bury the Dead (2024) 86% 3/5 EDIT “Creepy and conceptually compelling, We Bury the Dead comes alive when it leans into the zombie horror — and sags when it doesn’t.” – Fish Jelly Films (YouTube) Jan 3, 2026 Full Review Queens of the Dead (2025) 83% 1.5/5 EDIT “A queer zombie movie should be subversive, but Queens of the Dead settles for tired tropes and mixed performances, spiraling downward as it goes.” – Fish Jelly Films (YouTube) Dec 28, 2025 Full Review The Testament of Ann Lee (2025) 87% 3/5 EDIT “A flawed but daring swing, The Testament of Ann Lee probes the human need for meaning and the way trauma reshapes what we believe is real.” – Fish Jelly Films (YouTube) Dec 25, 2025 Full Review The Plague (2025) 97% 4/5 EDIT “The Plague captures adolescent terror so vividly it feels like PTSD in movie form.” – Fish Jelly Films (YouTube) Dec 25, 2025 Full Review Song Sung Blue (2025) 78% 3.5/5 EDIT “A gentler, Neil Diamond–flavored riff on Hustle & Flow, Song Sung Blue delivers a soft but sincere melody of ambition and reinvention.” – Fish Jelly Films (YouTube) Dec 24, 2025 Full Review No Other Choice (2025) 97% 4.5/5 EDIT “No Other Choice brilliantly blends the macabre with humor and heart.” – Fish Jelly Films (YouTube) Dec 24, 2025 Full Review Anaconda (2025) 48% 2.5/5 EDIT “Anaconda is every bit as stupid as you’d imagine — and thanks to its pro ensemble, it’s also a fun night at the theater, even if the final act sputters like a low-fuel warning.” – Fish Jelly Films (YouTube) Dec 24, 2025 Full Review Pillion (2025) 100% 3.5/5 EDIT “A provocative exploration of love and self-discovery seen through the fantastical lens of a less glamorized queer subculture.” – Fish Jelly Films (YouTube) Dec 22, 2025 Full Review Being Charlie (2015) 23% 1.5/5 EDIT “Being Charlie struggles to be more than an unremarkable addiction story, landing closer to an unfunny satirical after-school special than a gripping drama.” – Fish Jelly Films (YouTube) Dec 21, 2025 Full Review The Housemaid (2025) 74% 2.5/5 EDIT “An overlong camp nightmare riddled with plot holes, The Housemaid could’ve been a tawdry masterpiece but instead plays like a 90s erotic thriller rewritten by Colleen Hoover.” – Fish Jelly Films (YouTube) Dec 18, 2025 Full Review Is This Thing On? (2025) 86% 3.5/5 EDIT “Will Arnett anchors this quietly affecting, somewhat scattered exploration of a man simply trying to find his way.” – Fish Jelly Films (YouTube) Dec 16, 2025 Full Review Avatar: Fire and Ash (2025) 66% 2/5 EDIT “Oona Chaplin’s Varang is the standout in this visually stunning but overstuffed film that desperately needed a more refined screenplay.” – Fish Jelly Films (YouTube) Dec 13, 2025 Full Review Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery (2025) 92% 2.5/5 EDIT “A stellar cast keeps this overly convoluted Hercule Poirot–meets–Scooby-Doo mystery moderately interesting, even if it feels contractually obligated to stretch to two and a half hours — ideal in-flight viewing from LAX to IAH.” – Fish Jelly Films (YouTube) Dec 13, 2025 Full Review
