Mother of the Bride (2024) 13% EDIT “Don’t get me wrong; Mother of the Bride is not a particularly bad movie. Really, the shortcomings of its emotional storytelling feel pretty in keeping with the modern rom-com... If anything, it’s all just sort of forgettable.” – The Daily Beast May 13, 2024 Full Review The Stranger (2024) 50% EDIT “Its beautifully framed visuals and ominous, shadowy lighting are enough to make you forget that this movie was once a vertically oriented TV series meant to be consumed in 9-minute intervals while waiting in line for your Starbucks order.” – The Daily Beast Apr 17, 2024 Full Review Música (2024) 96% EDIT “Música... is most enchanting when it immerses itself in Rudy’s sensory experience.” – The Daily Beast Apr 6, 2024 Full Review Upgraded (2024) 76% EDIT “Upgraded knows what it has in its marquee trio of performers, and director Carlson Young makes the most of all three of them.” – The Daily Beast Feb 12, 2024 Full Review Scrambled (2023) 94% EDIT “Although the film itself can feel a little undercooked, especially toward the end, McKendrick’s performance will leave you wanting more. With any luck, her highwire act of a performance will lead to even more complex leading roles in future comedies.” – The Daily Beast Feb 5, 2024 Full Review The Moogai (2024) 50% EDIT “This allegory is all the more disturbing for the truth that it represents; when deployed properly, there’s nothing quite like reality to make a horror story all the more haunting.” – The Daily Beast Jan 25, 2024 Full Review Union (2024) 89% EDIT “At times, Union might leave you wishing for a little more direction or clarity, but overall, its detached, observational approach leads to a more broadly enlightening final product.” – The Daily Beast Jan 24, 2024 Full Review I Saw the TV Glow (2024) 85% EDIT “I Saw the TV Glow might be a gorgeous homage to the ’90s, but at its core, it’s about the patriarchal, often unspoken forces that can make this world feel unlivable and unbelievable to anyone who is even a little bit different.” – The Daily Beast Jan 23, 2024 Full Review Love Me (2024) 46% EDIT “As the story progresses, this robotic romance becomes a parable about insecurities and how quickly they can doom a relationship.” – The Daily Beast Jan 23, 2024 Full Review Between the Temples (2024) 84% EDIT “Ultimately, Between the Temples is as heartwarming as it is hilarious, right down to its final scene.” – The Daily Beast Jan 23, 2024 Full Review In a Violent Nature (2024) 79% EDIT “Writer-director Chris Nash remixes these ingredients into something more experimental, forgoing the obligatory victim character development to instead follow Johnny the monster around.” – The Daily Beast Jan 23, 2024 Full Review Flamin' Hot (2023) 67% EDIT “The film is unfailingly upbeat, even as Montañez delves into topics like police brutality in his narration. Rather than crumble in the face of unfair, seemingly insurmountable adversity, these two always seem to meet fire with fire.” – The Daily Beast Jun 6, 2023 Full Review Fitting In (2023) 96% EDIT “Personal, raw, and at times wickedly funny, the film is an excellent showcase for Ziegler, whose natural performance leaves a lasting impression.” – The Daily Beast Mar 20, 2023 Full Review Talk to Me (2023) 94% EDIT “For both the characters and viewers, Talk to Me is all about misdirection. There’s no major twist at the heart of this film, but the meaning of its relationship with the dead shifts over time, from fright to longing to panicked terror.” – The Daily Beast Mar 14, 2023 Full Review Appendage (2023) 50% EDIT “The creature design here is both horrifying and delightfully silly. When we first meet the appendage, it looks like some sort of unholy hybrid—like if Dead Baby Voldemort had a baby with a bald Treasure Troll doll.” – The Daily Beast Mar 13, 2023 Full Review A Disturbance in The Force (2023) 100% EDIT “Playful in tone and absolutely stacked with sources who either worked on or spent their youth obsessed with the special, the doc will entertain devoted and casual Star Wars fans alike.” – The Daily Beast Mar 12, 2023 Full Review Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves (2023) 91% EDIT “This one’s a certified crowd-pleaser—even for those among us who’ve never glimpsed a character sheet.” – The Daily Beast Mar 12, 2023 Full Review Children of the Corn (2020) 11% EDIT “This franchise peaked with its first two installments, and after Children of the Corn III: Urban Harvest, return trips to Gatlin are best scheduled only for the extremely devoted.” – The Daily Beast Mar 3, 2023 Full Review M3GAN (2022) 93% EDIT “...good, gory (if fleeting) fun...” – The Daily Beast Feb 27, 2023 Full Review Piggy (2022) 91% EDIT “Tender moments are rare in Piggy, but at its most vulnerable, the film can be as disarming as it is twisted. ” – The Daily Beast Dec 22, 2022 Full Review You've Got Mail (1998) 69% EDIT “As I’ve gotten older, my affection for the story still lingers.” – The Daily Beast Dec 5, 2022 Full Review How the Grinch Stole Christmas (1967) 100% EDIT “Simply put, a life without this holiday classic would’ve stink, stank, stunk.” – The Daily Beast Dec 5, 2022 Full Review Lightyear (2022) 74% EDIT “We're supposed to believe that this movie launched a successful line of space ranger action figures? *This* movie?” – The Daily Beast Jun 18, 2022 Full Review Family Dinner (2022) 100% EDIT “Peter Hengl's feature debut keeps its psychological terror understated at first. Before long, however, an awkward family visit takes a genuinely twisted—and terrifying—turn.” – The Daily Beast Jun 18, 2022 Full Review Cha Cha Real Smooth (2022) 85% EDIT “A coming-of-age movie that desperately wants to be taken seriously.” – The Daily Beast Jun 18, 2022 Full Review
