Movies TV Shows
28 Years Later: The Bone Temple (2026) 93% A- EDIT “The Bone Temple once again pulls off the 28 Days Later trick of finding moments of grace at the end of the world, with enough beautiful moments to balance out the grotesque ones.” – Consequence Jan 13, 2026 Full Review Anaconda (2025) 48% B EDIT “A movie far less scary than its campy 1997 predecessor, but far funnier — on purpose.” – Consequence Dec 23, 2025 Full Review Is This Thing On? (2025) 86% B+ EDIT “As personal as some of this material feels, it feels like a real collaboration of artists, all enabling Cooper to tell a heartfelt story with universal scope.” – Consequence Dec 18, 2025 Full Review Avatar: Fire and Ash (2025) 66% B EDIT “Everything is always loud, from the music to the visual design to the emotions. It's an approach ensuring that Cameron's message will be heard by even the most distracted viewer. ” – Consequence Dec 16, 2025 Full Review Casanova (2015) C- EDIT “Agonizingly slow and far too reliant on nonexistent sexual chemistry to sustain interest, "Casanova" feels like a show that's trying to borrow from every genre because it lacks a clear identity of its own.” – IndieWire Dec 12, 2025 Full Review Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery (2025) 92% A- EDIT “Wake Up Dead Man feels less like the third movie in an ongoing series of mysteries and more like the confident Season 3 of a prestige TV show — one where the creators feel fully seated in their powers, certain to deliver something captivating.” – Consequence Nov 25, 2025 Full Review Wicked: For Good (2025) 66% B- EDIT “For Good doesn’t sell Elphaba’s decree that "no good deed will I do again," one of the movie’s many muddled moments. It does, however, reflect an age where every message feels muddled, no hero can be trusted. All we know is that something is rotten here.” – Consequence Nov 18, 2025 Full Review The Running Man (2025) 62% B EDIT “The Running Man offers a more anarchic message than we might be used to from standard Hollywood blockbusters, but that message gets drowned out, leaving behind a loud violent romp that's almost a bit too on the nose for these loud violent times of ours. ” – Consequence Nov 11, 2025 Full Review Predator: Badlands (2025) 86% A- EDIT “Badlands flips the approach and finds something fresh and wonderful and bold as a result — as if James Cameron had made Terminator 2 entirely from the T-800’s point of view. ” – Consequence Nov 6, 2025 Full Review Bugonia (2025) 88% C+ EDIT “For those who loved The Menu, the odds are exceptionally good that Bugonia will also have equal appeal. ” – Consequence Oct 30, 2025 Full Review Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere (2025) 61% B EDIT “Deliver Me from Nowhere doesn’t aim to be the definitive tale of Bruce Springsteen’s life, but it does make smart choices in trying to subtly showcase the reasons why his legacy extends beyond some great rock songs. ” – Consequence Oct 21, 2025 Full Review Frankenstein (2025) 85% A- EDIT “There’s such humanity and spirit to what del Toro has done that despite the narrative differences, it genuinely feels like the definitive take on Shelley’s classic tale. ” – Consequence Oct 16, 2025 Full Review Taylor Swift | The Official Release Party of a Showgirl (2025) 64% EDIT “The human brain really wasn’t meant to watch 11 lyrics videos in a row, at least without some sort of accompanying herbal refreshment.” – Consequence Oct 7, 2025 Full Review TRON: Ares (2025) 53% B- EDIT “TRON: Ares doesn’t seem poised to change the culture in anything resembling a similar way; while it has a lot more life to it than the inert TRON: Legacy, Ares keeps its focus on big spectacle as opposed to big ideas. ” – Consequence Oct 7, 2025 Full Review The Smashing Machine (2025) 70% B+ EDIT “Johnson’s most vulnerable moments as Mark are the defeated ones, brought to the screen with minimal melodrama but maximum impact. ” – Consequence Sep 30, 2025 Full Review One Battle After Another (2025) 94% A- EDIT “It almost seems like production on One Battle After Another wrapped yesterday, yet while its focus on issues like immigration and the rise of white supremacy are all too relevant, Anderson never loses sight of his characters.” – Consequence Sep 17, 2025 Full Review Spinal Tap II: The End Continues (2025) 65% A- EDIT “Holds onto the real sense that these men, despite everything they've been through, have loved each other almost their entire lives... There's something beautiful about the fact that they've found their way to this moment, after so many decades. ” – Consequence Sep 11, 2025 Full Review The Long Walk (2025) 88% B EDIT “The Long Walk offers a gripping premise, a lot of characters who feel more like loose sketches than fully-realized personalities, and a narrative that maybe has some minor pacing problems towards the end, but is pretty impossible to turn away from.” – Consequence Sep 2, 2025 Full Review Caught Stealing (2025) 85% B EDIT “Caught Stealing is the furthest thing from an Oscar play but still a surprisingly enjoyable time, a movie where even the end credits have real life and spontaneity to them.” – Consequence Aug 27, 2025 Full Review Highest 2 Lowest (2025) 83% A- EDIT “A filmmaking flex that establishes just how good at the fundamentals Lee remains.” – Consequence Aug 14, 2025 Full Review Weapons (2025) 93% B+ EDIT “A cinematic experience that's powerful, scary, disturbing, and often quite funny.” – Consequence Aug 7, 2025 Full Review The Naked Gun (2025) 87% A- EDIT “The relaunch of the classic comedy series captures exactly what made the original, and other movies from the team behind Airplane!, so essential: An almost non-stop onslaught of silly and random moments, always going for the belly laugh.” – Consequence Jul 30, 2025 Full Review Happy Gilmore 2 (2025) 62% B EDIT “Between Happy’s family life and a whole new series of challenges for him to tackle, there’s enough freshness to the plot to keep it from feeling like a total rehash of what came before, while still delivering wild golf stunts and a huge range of cameos. ” – Consequence Jul 25, 2025 Full Review The Fantastic Four: First Steps (2025) 86% B+ EDIT “A solid comic book adventure that's not embarrassed by being a comic book adventure — in fact it finds real power in its love for its roots. Hopefully, that's an energy the MCU can carry forward with it.” – Consequence Jul 22, 2025 Full Review Eddington (2025) 68% EDIT “The one thing that Aster fails to accomplish — the one major issue holding the movie back — is that he never quite explains why he wanted to bring us back to this time in the first place. Especially because in so many ways, we're still living in it.” – Consequence Jul 17, 2025 Full Review
