Under the Stars (2025) 3/5 EDIT “This is a quiet, slow-paced romance with some gentle humor and a lot of gorgeous Italian countryside.” – Common Sense Media Nov 20, 2025 Full Review Be the Light (2020) 3/5 EDIT “This earnest, terminal-illness tearjerker is sometimes predictable and clichéd, but the engaging cast and solid storytelling help the viewer get past those problems.” – Common Sense Media Nov 13, 2025 Full Review We Are Stronger (2017) 2/5 EDIT “This well-intentioned Christian movie about healing from trauma has a few touching moments, but a weak script and sometimes amateurish acting keep it from genuinely moving the secular viewer.” – Common Sense Media Nov 12, 2025 Full Review Lessons of Basketball and War (2015) 3/5 EDIT “This documentary about a group of middle-school girls relocated from Somalia inspires empathy by introducing us to relatable young teens struggling to adapt in a new land.” – Common Sense Media Nov 12, 2025 Full Review Don't Say a Word (2001) 24% 4/5 EDIT “Viewers who like dark psychological thrillers and being kept on the edge of their seats will find this one well worth watching.” – Common Sense Media Nov 11, 2025 Full Review Magnetosphere (2024) 100% 3/5 EDIT “This is a quirky, gentle coming-of-age story that will foster empathy and understanding of neurodivergence, especially synesthesia.” – Common Sense Media Sep 7, 2025 Full Review A Normal Woman (2025) EDIT “This dark, psychological drama manages to build and maintain a lot of tension and suspense even while its pace is pretty slow.” – Common Sense Media Aug 4, 2025 Full Review And the Breadwinner Is... (2024) EDIT “This part-comedy, part-drama family saga has its heart in the right place but unfortunately loses its footing when it suddenly becomes a very different type of movie than how it started.” – Common Sense Media Jun 30, 2025 Full Review Exterritorial (2025) 80% EDIT “This is a fairly entertaining action movie with mystery and suspense, but it's also a bit uneven in a number of ways. ” – Common Sense Media May 7, 2025 Full Review Home Court (2024) EDIT “This is an uplifting, sometimes moving, refreshingly honest documentary about an Asian American teen making waves in the world of elite high school basketball. ” – Common Sense Media Mar 26, 2025 Full Review Death Before the Wedding (2025) EDIT “This is a quirky and enjoyable feel-good comedy that's just right when you want something light to go with your popcorn.” – Common Sense Media Feb 20, 2025 Full Review Return of the King: The Fall and Rise of Elvis Presley (2024) 75% EDIT “This documentary is as much of a loving tribute to the charismatic, legendary king of rock 'n' roll as it is a biography of Elvis' life and career. ” – Common Sense Media Nov 26, 2024 Full Review Sweet Bobby: My Catfish Nightmare (2024) 70% EDIT “This is a compelling documentary about a woman's 10-year nightmare with a catfishing Facebook account.” – Common Sense Media Oct 29, 2024 Full Review Justice (2024) EDIT “Fans of police procedurals will find a lot of meat and potatoes to chew on with this gritty, compelling Polish crime drama. ” – Common Sense Media Oct 25, 2024 Full Review The Nana Project (2023) EDIT “Strong themes include family, valuing older members of society for what they still have to give, and doing good for the community. ” – Common Sense Media Sep 18, 2024 Full Review Downtown Owl (2023) 47% EDIT “This delightfully quirky yet warm and gentle fish-out-of-water story has both real laughs and emotional depth.” – Common Sense Media Aug 27, 2024 Full Review Inheritance (2024) 4/5 EDIT “This is a very quirky, and entertaining comedy murder mystery with oddball characters and genuine laughs. The acting is great, and the fabulous mansion setting provides lots of eye candy.” – Common Sense Media Jul 19, 2024 Full Review Ruby's Choice (2022) EDIT “This gentle, sweet, slow-paced story of a family in crisis will tug at the heartstrings and provide a good opportunity for families to talk about long-term care and aging.” – Common Sense Media May 20, 2024 Full Review The Moon and Back (2022) 80% EDIT “ Teens will relate to Lydia's conflicting need for change and resistance to it, while gently exploring issues of grief, loss, and moving on.” – Common Sense Media Apr 30, 2024 Full Review You Are Not Alone: Fighting the Wolf Pack (2024) EDIT “Rape and murder are difficult to talk about, but for older teens who can handle the subject, this movie can be a good starting point for important talks about these issues and more.” – Common Sense Media Mar 15, 2024 Full Review ElemenTory (2024) EDIT “The pace of ElemenTory is slowed down by a lot of long, slow tracking shots of background activity that interfere with building up real tension. ” – Common Sense Media Feb 22, 2024 Full Review Because They Believed (2022) EDIT “Unfortunately, Because They Believed is a little too stiff to forge a real emotional connection with viewers, or to really invite them into the moments of hardship and triumph.” – Common Sense Media Feb 7, 2024 Full Review The New Americans: Gaming a Revolution (2023) 60% EDIT “But while it adds a lot of eye candy to The New Americans: Gaming a Revolution, it also takes away from thorough, easy-to-understand explanations of the various topics it takes on. ” – Common Sense Media Jan 30, 2024 Full Review Hell Camp: Teen Nightmare (2023) 80% EDIT “This is a gripping but sometimes difficult-to-watch documentary that has a strong, clear point of view, but also asks a lot of good questions for families with teens to think about. ” – Common Sense Media Jan 17, 2024 Full Review All-Time High (2023) 3/5 EDIT “All Time High's two main characters have great chemistry, and the whole charismatic cast doesn't hold anything back.” – Common Sense Media Nov 22, 2023 Full Review
