Muppet Guys Talking: Secrets Behind the Show the Whole World Watched (2017) |
Muppet Guys Talking stands as a testament to the enduring opposite reaction to the Muppet oeuvre: we're giggling with these creators, not at them, and there's a deep well of gratitude underneath all the laughter. - io9.com

Cargo (2017) |
For all the wonkiness of its character choices, I liked Cargo because it's a movie that says, elliptically, that colonialism screwed up the lives of indigenous people. - io9.com

The Death of Superman (2018) |
[The Death of Superman] film adaptation justifies its existence, making me want to see what gets remixed now and in the future while appreciating the things that have stayed the same. - io9.com

The Frighteners (1996) |
There's not a boring moment in the film and almost every single scene adds new layers to the film's multiple mysteries. - The Young Folks

Fahrenheit 451 (2018) |
I liked the aesthetic interpretations of this new Fahrenheit but the focus on commenting on today's social media landscape and changes to plot and narrative rob the story of some of its ruminative appeal. - io9.com

Anon (2018) |
The end result is a movie that feels too pleased with its own cleverness to do anything more than glance at its philosophical themes. - io9.com

Hereditary (2018) |
Hereditary is a long, slow burn of a movie, but by the time its final climaxes hit, you'll be shellshocked and paranoid. - io9.com

Unfriended: Dark Web (2018) |
Its novel execution makes it stand apart from other horror flicks-and you'll find yourselves looking suspiciously at every new friend request for a long time after seeing the movie. - io9.com

Sorry to Bother You (2018) |
It's a scorchingly polemic work that's also hilarious, tender and thoughtful, part of a scifi tradition that warns us about who we let have the power to re-configure the world. - io9.com

Ready Player One (2018) |
It isn't so much a movie about loving old video games and other cultural artifacts. It's about loving to love those things, which makes Steven Spielberg's film adaptation of the bestselling novel feel hollow. - io9.com

Dave Made a Maze (2017) |
... this film's most glowing redeeming quality manifests as a rapturous flurry of aesthetics, which comes across as a celebration of craft for its own sake. - io9.com

We Go On (2016) |
The narrative arc of We Go On curves along a satisfying path with its share of surprises but its biggest achievement is the everyday naturalistic tone in which the film's philosophical concerns find purchase. - io9.com

Ghost in the Shell (2017) |
Despite a few shot-for-shot homages to the 1995 movie, the set pieces and fight choreography don't surpass what's been in big-budget action movies. - io9.com

Atomic Blonde finds surprising depth by delving into the existential considerations of spycraft, questioning exactly how and when a good spy who does terrible things can stop believing that they're doing good. - io9.com

Assassin's Creed (2016) |
It could've been a slyly, self-aware modern day B-movie but it devotes its energy to the wrong stuff. - io9.com
