Project Hail Mary (2026) 94% 4/5 EDIT “Striking visual effects and an endearing lead performance from Ryan Gosling propel Project Hail Mary into early contention for one of the year’s best films. ” – BlackFilmandTV.com Mar 12, 2026 Full Review Reminders of Him (2026) 56% 2.5/5 EDIT “Reminders of Him is effectively moving despite being a contrived and predictable romantic drama. Maika Monroe and Tyriq Withers elevate the sluggish script with a tender chemistry.” – MovieWeb Mar 12, 2026 Full Review Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man (2026) 93% 4.5/5 EDIT “Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man continues the Shelby family saga in a stunning gangster epic that will leave die-hard fans of the Netflix series and newbies alike absolutely mesmerized.” – MovieWeb Mar 7, 2026 Full Review Heel (The Good Boy) (2025) 90% 3.5/5 EDIT “Heel's superb tension deflates in a somewhat disappointing final act which purposely leaves many questions unanswered. You're left appreciating the film's finer points, but wanting a better resolution after such a strong open.” – MovieWeb Mar 7, 2026 Full Review THE BRIDE! (2026) 57% 3/5 EDIT “The Bride! has wildly uneven plot swings, but stars Jessie Buckley and Christian Bale have electric screen chemistry in a truly original take on a classic monster story.” – BlackFilmandTV.com Mar 6, 2026 Full Review Hoppers (2026) 93% 4.5/5 EDIT “Hoppers will have families rolling in the aisles as Pixar returns to conquer the box office with another absolutely brilliant CGI adventure. A clever narrative takes a hysterical dig at Avatar and Game of Thrones.” – BlackFilmandTV.com Mar 2, 2026 Full Review Crime 101 (2026) 88% 3.5/5 EDIT “Chris Hemsworth leads an all-star ensemble in a labyrinthine heist thriller with intricate character development and twists aplenty. Crime 101 delivers solid entertainment value while running a tad too long.” – BlackFilmandTV.com Feb 13, 2026 Full Review Solo Mio (2026) 83% 3.5/5 EDIT “Kevin James and a fantastic supporting cast will leave audiences smiling in the charming Solo Mio. Getting over heartbreak isn't easy. Solo Mio wraps that pain in a comedic bow and reminds us that every dark cloud has a silver lining.” – MovieWeb Feb 6, 2026 Full Review The Strangers: Chapter 3 (2026) 17% 1/5 EDIT “The Strangers reboot trilogy comes to a bloody and baffling end in a nonsensical finale that's utterly devoid of scares. An absurd climax literally buries the hatchet in a franchise that never went beyond a tedious exercise in generic horror tropes.” – MovieWeb Feb 5, 2026 Full Review Moses the Black (2026) 23% 2/5 EDIT “Moses the Black's themes of retribution versus compassion and penance are clumsily handled in a poorly edited film with one-note performances, scant surprises, and a bizarre flashback structure.” – MovieWeb Feb 3, 2026 Full Review The Wrecking Crew (2026) 74% 3.5/5 EDIT “The Wrecking Crew is a no-holds-barred action comedy that gleefully embraces savage extremes to entertaining effect. Dave Bautista and Jason Momoa are fantastic in a raunchy, bloody, and swift narrative that never takes its foot off the gas.” – MovieWeb Jan 26, 2026 Full Review A Private Life (2025) 80% 3.5/5 EDIT “A Private Life is sophisticated adult cinema for discerning audiences who can appreciate an intricate story with a superb lead. The film has many layers, not all of which are successful, but it is definitely engrossing.” – MovieWeb Jan 19, 2026 Full Review All That's Left of You (2025) 100% 4.5/5 EDIT “All That's Left of You is a solemn and heartbreaking journey, but also reveals glimmers of hope with startling acts of kindness in the face of unthinkable loss. Writer, director, and star Cherien Dabis delivers a remarkable story of generational struggle.” – MovieWeb Jan 10, 2026 Full Review The Dutchman (2025) 62% 2/5 EDIT “The Dutchman aims to confront powerful themes of race, emasculation, and Black identity in modern America, but its heavy‑handed execution undercuts any such ambitions.” – MovieWeb Dec 31, 2025 Full Review We Bury the Dead (2024) 88% 3.5/5 EDIT “Daisy Ridley tugs at your heartstrings while smashing zombie skulls in a slow-burn Australian thriller that rises above tired genre tropes with a more nuanced and thoughtful take on familiar material.” – MovieWeb Dec 31, 2025 Full Review The Plague (2025) 97% 3.5/5 EDIT “The Plague takes the cooties to horrifying depths as cruel boys target an odd loner with unrelenting torment. Writer/director Charlie Polinger explores adolescent ugliness and peer pressure in a remarkable feature debut. ” – MovieWeb Dec 29, 2025 Full Review Song Sung Blue (2025) 77% 4/5 EDIT “Song Sung Blue goes from unfettered joy to heartbreak with hairspray, sequins, and glorious Neil Diamond melodies as a toe-tapping accompaniment. You'll definitely want to a bring a box of hankies to the theater.” – MovieWeb Dec 23, 2025 Full Review Anaconda (2025) 48% 2.5/5 EDIT “Anaconda's meta sequel fills the minimum laugh quota while gleefully mocking the admittedly cheesy source material. It achieves base-level success by embracing goofy shenanigans with a nod and wink to obvious absurdity.” – MovieWeb Dec 23, 2025 Full Review Marty Supreme (2025) 93% 3.5/5 EDIT “Marty Supreme is a fascinating character study that runs long, with one subplot in particular creating significant pacing issues. Even so, Timothée Chalamet dazzles with moxy in a tour de force, awards-worthy performance.” – MovieWeb Dec 22, 2025 Full Review The Great Flood (2025) 58% 3/5 EDIT “The Great Flood has more twists than a bag of pretzels. A second-act reveal transforms what seemed like a straightforward plot into something entirely unexpected. This shift is clever at first, but the story soon becomes too convoluted.” – MovieWeb Dec 22, 2025 Full Review Avatar: Fire and Ash (2025) 66% 4.5/5 EDIT “An epic narrative, mind-blowing 3D, and unparalleled action scenes — the biggest blockbuster of the year. Superlatives have become a standard refrain as James Cameron's science-fiction magnum opus returns to Pandora for its third chapter.” – MovieWeb Dec 16, 2025 Full Review Dust Bunny (2025) 85% 4/5 EDIT “Dust Bunny delivers a dark fairy tale that's beautifully shot, superbly acted, and brimming with thrilling action in a narrative that will keep you guessing until a bonkers climax.” – MovieWeb Dec 15, 2025 Full Review Silent Night, Deadly Night (2025) 77% 3.5/5 EDIT “Silent Night, Deadly Night slays the holidays in a banner remake of the 1984 cult-classic horror film. Old school fans and neophytes alike will cheer for Christmas carnage in a sharp new take on a grisly franchise. ” – MovieWeb Dec 10, 2025 Full Review Merv (2025) 32% 2.5/5 EDIT “Zooey Deschanel, Charlie Cox, and an absolutely adorable mixed-breed terrier will steal your heart in Merv. The feel-good rom-com has predictable beats galore, but delivers a surprising twist that reframes the narrative at just the right time.” – MovieWeb Dec 9, 2025 Full Review Hunting Season (2025) 60% 3/5 EDIT “Mel Gibson returns to form, shredding ruthless baddies with a heavy dose of God, guns, cigarettes, and family values in Hunting Season. There's a palpable engagement factor. You care about what happens to the protagonists.” – MovieWeb Dec 5, 2025 Full Review
