The Rose of Versailles (2025)
EDIT
“I can see how a recap movie with beautiful animation and song sequences would appeal to a longtime fan of this franchise, but for someone new to the story, it just feels like a frustrating hint of something even better.” –

EDIT
“Every character and subplot feels like it was brought in from a different movie. While each of them has some potential, they’re working against each other in one tangled mess of a movie.” –

“All the threads are there, and they’re even looped in and out of each other. But they’re never pulled tight or tied together enough to hold the story together.” –

EDIT
“There is a glimmer of something wonderful in Mufasa... There’s just too much working against it, from the flat animation and subpar songs to the preordained fate that awaits both characters. ” –

Wicked (2024)

EDIT
“This is a movie about two powerful women and the life-changing friendship between them, and it’s full of gorgeous ballgowns, spine-chilling musical riffs, elaborate song and dance sequences, and just enough nods to the original. ” –

Sirocco and the Kingdom of the Winds (2023)
100%
EDIT
“It never overpowers the core adventure, the childhood storybook tale of two girls trying to get home, but it does add a certain bittersweet tinge to the movie, one that elevates it from a simple sparkly trinket into a valuable glimmering jewel.” –

Uglies (2024)

“Uglies is full of slick yet bland CG, stilted acting, and a plot that plays into all the lazy tropes YA dystopian novels are known for.” –

My Old Ass (2024)
90%
EDIT
“My Old Ass is about growing up — the joy, the pain, and those little moments that resonate with us far longer than we think they will — and Park smartly pulls it off by drawing on Elliott’s perspectives of both the past and the present.” –

“Space Cadet is incredibly funny, but it’s also about someone pursuing a life she thought she’d missed out on, and finding her own strengths when she feels like she can’t measure up. ” –
