Avatar: Fire and Ash (2025) 66% 1 / 4 EDIT “Pretty imagery + awful script = pretty awful.” – Channel Awesome Dec 21, 2025 Full Review Five Nights at Freddy's 2 (2025) 16% 2 / 4 EDIT “The 'Mortal Kombat Annihilation' of Blumhouse sequels. ” – Channel Awesome Dec 5, 2025 Full Review Zootopia 2 (2025) 91% 3 / 4 EDIT “Enough laughs, good writing, and likeable characters to make this a pretty decent followup. ” – Channel Awesome Dec 1, 2025 Full Review Wicked: For Good (2025) 66% 3.5 / 4 EDIT “Strong dramatic moments and memorable musical numbers outweigh the sometimes unbalanced pacing.” – Channel Awesome Nov 23, 2025 Full Review TRON: Ares (2025) 53% 2 / 4 EDIT “One of the most impressive IMAX experiences of the year, unfortunately the characters talk. ” – Channel Awesome Oct 11, 2025 Full Review HIM (2025) 30% 3 / 4 EDIT “While the ending goes comically abstract to the point of not caring, the way the lead sees his environment captures the pressure, anxiety, and physical demands of being an athlete along with the impossible cult-like standards society expects from them. ” – Channel Awesome Sep 22, 2025 Full Review The Long Walk (2025) 88% 4 / 4 EDIT “One of the best Stephen King adaptations.” – Channel Awesome Sep 15, 2025 Full Review War of the Worlds (2025) 4% 1 / 4 EDIT “You're not gonna hear any different from me, this was awful.” – Channel Awesome Aug 26, 2025 Full Review Weapons (2025) 93% 3.5 / 4 EDIT “Scary, funny, suspenseful, mysterious, and unpredictable. We're in a great age for horror films.” – Channel Awesome Aug 8, 2025 Full Review The Naked Gun (2025) 87% 3 / 4 EDIT “A movie that cheerfully reminds you parody films can still be funny.” – Channel Awesome Aug 3, 2025 Full Review The Fantastic Four: First Steps (2025) 86% 2.5 / 4 EDIT “Unlike James Gunn's Superman, we haven't seen Fantastic Four's origin done well on the big screen, so starting off in the middle of their story can create a disconnect. I do think there's an audience for this film who won't be bothered by that though. ” – Channel Awesome Jul 28, 2025 Full Review Superman (2025) 83% 3 / 4 EDIT “A messy spectacle, but still a spectacle. ” – Channel Awesome Jul 8, 2025 Full Review Jurassic World Rebirth (2025) 50% 2 / 4 EDIT “When in the first two minutes a dinosaur escapes a high security laboratory with a candy wrapper, you know you got a bad script.” – Channel Awesome Jul 4, 2025 Full Review M3GAN 2.0 (2025) 57% 2 / 4 EDIT “Like jumping from the first 'Fast and Furious' movie to the ninth. ” – Channel Awesome Jul 1, 2025 Full Review Elio (2025) 83% 3.5 / 4 EDIT “A movie that should be seen not just because it's charming and visually dazzling, but because it'll encourage companies like Disney to put more effort into original ideas. ” – Channel Awesome Jun 21, 2025 Full Review How to Train Your Dragon (2025) 77% 2.5 / 4 EDIT “I'm surprised at how many scenes do improve on the original, but the majority is still recycled storyboards and sound bytes without the fresh originality. ” – Channel Awesome Jun 14, 2025 Full Review Lilo & Stitch (2025) 72% 2 / 4 EDIT “Good performances and some decent laughs are ruined by distracting editing on par with 'Kraven' and 'Madame Web.'” – Channel Awesome May 23, 2025 Full Review Sinners (2025) 97% 4 / 4 EDIT “Slick, stylish, scary, engaging, and musically stellar. This is a film that is worth all the hype. ” – Channel Awesome May 23, 2025 Full Review Thunderbolts* (2025) 88% 2.5 / 4 EDIT “Good acting and action can't overshadow tired comedic dialogue, choppy pacing, and inconsistent character development. I do think there's an audience out there who will see the acting and action as entertaining enough though.” – Channel Awesome May 3, 2025 Full Review A Minecraft Movie (2025) 48% 1.5 / 4 EDIT “Any section of this movie could be a fake trailer from 'Tropic Thunder.'” – Channel Awesome Apr 3, 2025 Full Review Disney's Snow White (2025) 39% 1.5 / 4 EDIT “A Disney film production with a Disney Channel script.” – Channel Awesome Mar 21, 2025 Full Review The Day the Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Movie (2024) 86% 3 / 4 EDIT “A delightful love letter to old school Looney Tunes.” – Channel Awesome Mar 21, 2025 Full Review Captain America: Brave New World (2025) 46% 2.5 / 4 EDIT “A best of collection of Marvel's afterthoughts. ” – Channel Awesome Feb 15, 2025 Full Review Emilia Pérez (2024) 71% 2 / 4 EDIT “Like 'RRR' if everything was done wrong. ” – Channel Awesome Jan 30, 2025 Full Review Stream (2024) 95% 3 / 4 EDIT “Despite the main characters being bores, there is an audience who will enjoy the fun cameos, creative kills, and imaginative concept. ” – Channel Awesome Jan 9, 2025 Full Review
