Pretty Lethal (2026) 57% 6/10 EDIT “A stylish, kinetic blend of ballet and brutality that favors movement over depth. Pretty Lethal may be narratively thin, but its inventive choreography and playful tone make it a surprisingly fun action ride.” – Algo Más Que Cine Apr 4, 2026 Full Review Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice (2026) 77% 6/10 EDIT “A stylish, fast-paced genre mashup, Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice delivers fun and heart—Vince Vaughn shines in a chaotic but surprisingly emotional ride through crime, love, and second chances.” – Algo Más Que Cine Apr 4, 2026 Full Review How to Make a Killing (2026) 44% 4/10 EDIT “A stylish but hollow dark comedy, How to Make a Killing never finds its bite—despite a fun premise and a sharp Qualley, it settles for safe cynicism over true menace or wit.” – Algo Más Que Cine Apr 3, 2026 Full Review The Super Mario Galaxy Movie (2026) 42% 3/10 EDIT “A visually busy but narratively weightless sequel, Super Mario Galaxy trades story for spectacle—fun for fans, but ultimately a hollow ride through space with little to hold onto.” – Algo Más Que Cine Apr 3, 2026 Full Review 53 Sundays (2026) 7/10 EDIT “A sharp, dialogue-driven family dramedy that thrives on discomfort and emotional avoidance. Modest in scope but honest in its portrayal of fractured relationships, elevated by strong performances—especially Javier Cámara.” – Algo Más Que Cine Mar 30, 2026 Full Review Always Winter (2025) 5/10 EDIT “A tender and introspective take on heartbreak, elevated by David Verdaguer’s subtle performance, but its restrained storytelling and emotional distance keep it from fully resonating.” – Algo Más Que Cine Mar 30, 2026 Full Review Agent Zeta (2026) 5/10 EDIT “A slick, globe-trotting spy thriller with strong action set pieces and a compelling lead performance from Mario Casas, but ultimately weighed down by an overexplained script and underdeveloped themes that keep it from reaching its full potential.” – Algo Más Que Cine Mar 30, 2026 Full Review The Ice Tower (2025) 80% 7/10 EDIT “A hypnotic, visually stunning reimagining of a classic tale—enigmatic, haunting, and driven by two mesmerizing performances.” – Algo Más Que Cine Mar 29, 2026 Full Review Dead Man's Wire (2025) 92% 8/10 EDIT “A chilling, media-savvy thriller anchored by Bill Skarsgård’s magnetic performance—smart, unsettling, and deeply resonant.” – Algo Más Que Cine Mar 28, 2026 Full Review Cold Storage (2026) 80% 6/10 EDIT “A slick, fast-moving creature feature that knows exactly what it is—light on depth but packed with energy, charm, and just enough bite to keep it fun.” – Algo Más Que Cine Mar 28, 2026 Full Review They Will Kill You (2026) 63% 5/10 EDIT “A stylish, blood-soaked ride that starts strong but collapses under its own excess—fun in bursts, but ultimately more noise than substance.” – Algo Más Que Cine Mar 28, 2026 Full Review Ready or Not 2: Here I Come (2026) 73% 5/10 EDIT “A louder, bloodier sequel that expands the world but loses the bite—entertaining enough, yet far less sharp than the original.” – Algo Más Que Cine Mar 28, 2026 Full Review Project Hail Mary (2026) 95% 8/10 EDIT “A heartfelt and visually stunning sci-fi adventure that blends humor, science, and emotion into an irresistibly engaging cosmic journey.” – Algo Más Que Cine Mar 19, 2026 Full Review The Testament of Ann Lee (2025) 86% 9/10 EDIT “A feverish, unconventional religious biopic. Mona Fastvold turns Ann Lee’s story into a hypnotic mix of musical ritual, mysticism and epic ambition, anchored by a ferocious Amanda Seyfried performance. Strange, uneven, but undeniably fascinating.” – Algo Más Que Cine Mar 17, 2026 Full Review The Last Viking (2025) 91% 8/10 EDIT “Dark, violent and hilariously absurd, The Last Viking blends black comedy with a surprisingly emotional story about broken families and toxic masculinity. Mads Mikkelsen steals every scene in Anders Thomas Jensen’s chaotic but entertaining tale.” – Algo Más Que Cine Mar 15, 2026 Full Review Leave One Day (2025) 60% 6/10 EDIT “Charming but predictable, Partir un jour blends romance, nostalgia and pop music with mixed results. Bastien Bouillon’s charisma and the film’s light tone keep it enjoyable, even when the scattered script struggles to find emotional depth.” – Algo Más Que Cine Mar 15, 2026 Full Review Strangers in the Park (2026) 6/10 EDIT “A gentle, dialogue-driven comedy lifted by the chemistry of Luis Brandoni and Eduardo Blanco. While its theatrical roots and sentimental tone limit its cinematic power, Parque Lezama remains a warm reflection on friendship and aging.” – Algo Más Que Cine Mar 14, 2026 Full Review La Tregua (2025) 6/10 EDIT “A visually strong historical drama with solid performances, especially from Miguel Herrán. But its heavy-handed message and uneven pacing prevent La tregua from fully realizing the powerful story it aims to tell.” – Algo Más Que Cine Mar 14, 2026 Full Review The Moment (2026) 67% 6/10 EDIT “The Moment captures the chaos of Charli XCX’s pop stardom with style and self-awareness, but its mockumentary satire never fully lands. Visually slick and occasionally funny, yet strangely shallow for a film about the cost of fame.” – Algo Más Que Cine Mar 8, 2026 Full Review In the Blink of an Eye (2026) 16% 4/10 EDIT “Andrew Stanton’s In the Blink of an Eye aims for cosmic humanism but ends up oddly flat. Ambitious ideas, three timelines and a Pixar-like sentimentality never quite work in live action, leaving behind a sci-fi drama that’s more dull than profound.” – Algo Más Que Cine Mar 7, 2026 Full Review Hoppers (2026) 94% 7/10 EDIT “Pixar’s Hoppers is lively, colorful and well-meaning, but also strangely familiar. Gorgeous animation and a sweet eco-message can’t fully hide a story that feels recycled and lighter than what the studio once delivered.” – Algo Más Que Cine Mar 7, 2026 Full Review Scream 7 (2026) 31% 4/10 EDIT “Scream 7 proves even a self-aware franchise can become the cliché it once mocked. Despite Neve Campbell’s return, sloppy plotting, weak new characters and tired meta-humor turn this sequel into a surprisingly lifeless Ghostface revival.” – Algo Más Que Cine Mar 7, 2026 Full Review THE BRIDE! (2026) 57% 8/10 EDIT “Maggie Gyllenhaal’s The Bride! is chaotic, bold and defiantly strange. Jessie Buckley’s feral performance electrifies this feminist reinvention of the Frankenstein myth. It doesn’t always hold together—but when it sparks, it burns bright.” – Algo Más Que Cine Mar 7, 2026 Full Review Los Domingos (2025) 8/10 EDIT “Alauda Ruiz de Azúa delivers a sober, ambiguous drama that refuses easy answers. Anchored by Blanca Soroa’s restrained performance, Los domingos turns a young woman’s spiritual calling into a piercing exploration of faith, freedom, and family fractures.” – Algo Más Que Cine Mar 1, 2026 Full Review Calle Málaga (2025) 97% 7/10 EDIT “Carmen Maura radiates warmth and defiance in this gentle tale of aging and belonging. Though predictable, Calle Málaga offers a tender reminder that love, desire and autonomy don’t fade with time.” – Algo Más Que Cine Mar 1, 2026 Full Review
