Primate (2025) 79% 3/4 EDIT “It’s a flimsy series of contrivances to get a shockingly realistic ape to rip the faces off of stupid human beings in increasingly creative ways. What more do you want, really?” – RogerEbert.com Jan 9, 2026 Full Review Lilo & Stitch (2025) 72% B- EDIT “The plot differs from the original Lilo & Stitch, and its new depiction of foster care in Native contexts has uncomfortable implications.” – Mediaversity Reviews Jan 5, 2026 Full Review The Plague (2025) 97% 4/4 EDIT “'The Plague’ never really comes down one way or the other on whether its titular contagion is real. Then again, it doesn’t have to; the real plague is puberty, and the toxic codes young boys play out not just to belong, but to dominate. ” – RogerEbert.com Dec 24, 2025 Full Review Atropia (2025) 41% 2.5/4 EDIT “‘Atropia' feels like Gates gesturing vaguely at a few really interesting notions about the military-entertainment complex, and how it can bleed through into the people waging the actual war.” – RogerEbert.com Dec 12, 2025 Full Review The Mysterious Gaze of the Flamingo (2025) 95% 3/4 EDIT “It’s an assured tale of queer resistance, blended with the supernatural rhythms of the folktale, and it feels suitably transgressive for its gender-nonconforming characters. ” – RogerEbert.com Dec 10, 2025 Full Review Teenage Wasteland (2025) 100% 3/4 EDIT “The kids didn’t change the world, but their youthful energy still made a difference and offered a model for the kind of change we can enact if we just stay young, rebellious, and curious. ” – RogerEbert.com Nov 26, 2025 Full Review Killing Faith (2025) 76% 3/4 EDIT “Minor sins are easy to forgive for such a bold, idiosyncratic anti-Western as this, the kind we don’t often get. ” – RogerEbert.com Oct 3, 2025 Full Review All the Devils Are Here (2025) 61% 2.5/4 EDIT “All this style is in service of a fairly formulaic story about volatile men going crazy at the edge of nowhere, with game performances only slightly elevating some fairly archetypal characters” – RogerEbert.com Sep 28, 2025 Full Review Code 3 (2025) 78% 3/4 EDIT “There’s a beating heart at the center of this film that helps wallpaper over its flaws, a call for sincere action in a cruel and unjust world filled with people who, even as they may fight you, need your care.” – RogerEbert.com Sep 15, 2025 Full Review The Long Walk (2025) 88% 3/4 EDIT “But the spectacle of inevitable violence remains haunting regardless, especially as we watch these kids, resigned to their fate, try to go out with as much of their humanity intact as possible” – RogerEbert.com Sep 11, 2025 Full Review Everything to Me (2024) 2/4 EDIT “It feels like an admirable, if flawed, attempt to filter the universal anxieties of discovering yourself and finding your purpose in adolescence through the eye-catching nostalgia of 2000s Silicon Valley consumerism.” – RogerEbert.com Sep 5, 2025 Full Review Lurker (2025) 95% 3.5/4 EDIT “‘Lurker’ which feels like ‘Nightcrawler' for starfuckers in the best possible way.” – RogerEbert.com Aug 22, 2025 Full Review Devil's Bride (1974) EDIT “It’s slight, and more than a little confusing, but understands that the proper fable is more about the telling than the story.” – RogerEbert.com Aug 22, 2025 Full Review I Am Frankelda (2025) EDIT “It feels like a staggering achievement in Mexican animation, a bold burst of culturally-specific fantasy that wears every ounce of ambition on its perfectly-crafted sleeve.” – RogerEbert.com Aug 22, 2025 Full Review Mother of Flies (2025) 96% EDIT “It’s a somber, meditative chamber piece, albeit one soaked in wood and blood and philosophical musings on the nature of death” – RogerEbert.com Aug 22, 2025 Full Review Anything That Moves (2025) EDIT “It’s chaotic, raunchy, and weirdly sweet for its bursts of violence” – RogerEbert.com Aug 22, 2025 Full Review Every Heavy Thing (2025) EDIT “It’s all very surprising and retrofuturistic, and unexpectedly funny.” – RogerEbert.com Aug 22, 2025 Full Review A Grand Mockery (2024) EDIT “It’s the kind of film you sense more than analyze. ” – RogerEbert.com Aug 22, 2025 Full Review Witchboard (2024) 59% 2.5/4 EDIT “For as shaky as its foundation may be, ‘Witchboard' offers just enough madcap madness to entertain.” – RogerEbert.com Aug 15, 2025 Full Review To Kill a Wolf (2024) 100% 3/4 EDIT “In stripping down the Red Riding Hood fable to more terrestrial environs, ‘To Kill a Wolf' finds stronger, more delicate ways to sell the simmering psychology of its original fable. ” – RogerEbert.com Aug 1, 2025 Full Review Cielo (2025) EDIT “It’s heartwarming, even in the haziness of its ambiguous ending, a deeply sincere fantasy drama that can tug on even the firmest of heartstrings.” – RogerEbert.com Jul 31, 2025 Full Review The Well (2025) 44% EDIT “There’s hope at the end of the tunnel, but 'The Well' unfortunately runs dry long before then.” – RogerEbert.com Jul 31, 2025 Full Review The Serpent's Skin (2025) 100% EDIT “Amid all the sapphic goth girl delights of the film, there’s a clarion call for community and its importance for queer people, messy and imperfect as it may be.” – RogerEbert.com Jul 31, 2025 Full Review Foreigner (2025) 72% EDIT “Safai’s first feature is charming in its scrappiness and relatability, even as a few wooden performances and some less-than-stellar effects by the end slightly dampen the results. ” – RogerEbert.com Jul 28, 2025 Full Review The Virgin of the Quarry Lake (2025) 83% EDIT “It reaches a crimson crescendo that feels fitting for its aims.” – RogerEbert.com Jul 28, 2025 Full Review
