Carousel (2026) 84% 5/10 EDIT “Carousel felt like it was missing something that could have made its quiet slice-of-life scenes a real emotional experience.” – Looper.com Jan 29, 2026 Full Review Josephine (2026) 97% 9.5/10 EDIT “In its artful, brilliantly acted exploration of the moment one learns that the world isn't "fair" and how we keep going in the face of evil, Josephine sets a high bar for all movies to come in 2026.” – Looper.com Jan 29, 2026 Full Review Zombie Land Saga: Yumeginga Paradise (2025) B- EDIT “I had fun with Yumeginga Paradise, even if it wasn't as fun as the two seasons of television that preceded it.” – Anime News Network Jan 22, 2026 Full Review 100 Nights of Hero (2025) 69% 5.5/10 EDIT “Whatever happened in bringing this story to the big screen, 100 Nights of Hero starts off enjoyable enough in the moment, but by the time it ends, it's easy to feel underwhelmed.” – Looper.com Dec 2, 2025 Full Review The Red Spectacles (1987) B EDIT “Though I was a bit too baffled by The Red Spectacles to love it or declare it a great movie, I was never bored by it.” – Anime News Network Nov 20, 2025 Full Review Wicked: For Good (2025) 66% 7/10 EDIT “It's good enough, but I could be happier.” – Looper.com Nov 18, 2025 Full Review Die My Love (2025) 74% 5/10 EDIT “Maybe there's something I'm not getting here, but as far as I'm concerned, Die My Love comes alive in individual scenes yet feels stultifying as a whole.” – Looper.com Nov 5, 2025 Full Review Shelby Oaks (2023) 55% 4/10 EDIT “Stuckmann may very well have a good future ahead of him as a director, which is a polite way of saying he's not quite there yet with his first feature.” – Looper.com Oct 21, 2025 Full Review Is This Thing On? (2025) 87% 6/10 EDIT “It's never boring, but also never stunning — a success on its own unambitious terms that I nonetheless expect to mostly forget about.” – Looper.com Oct 11, 2025 Full Review Anemone (2025) 53% 4.5/10 EDIT “Even another great Daniel Day-Lewis performance can't push this into something I'd recommend. It's both a bummer and a bore.” – Looper.com Sep 29, 2025 Full Review Junk World (2025) 7.2/10 EDIT “Akin to Jim Henson’s The Dark Crystal or Phil Tippett’s Mad God, the main appeal of Hori’s Junk series isn’t its plot but the amazement of its imagination and craft.” – Paste Magazine Sep 16, 2025 Full Review Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery (2025) 92% 8.5/10 EDIT “Wake Up Dead Man lives up to the standards of quality set by the past two films. In a few ways, it's even better.” – Looper.com Sep 15, 2025 Full Review Scarlet (2025) 68% C- EDIT “Scarlet is both Hosoda's worst-written and worst-animated movie, though its weaknesses aren't apparent immediately.” – Anime News Network Sep 13, 2025 Full Review Exit 8 (2025) 97% B- EDIT “With its stylistic strengths, Exit 8 would make an amazing short film. As a feature, it's just good enough to enjoy.” – Anime News Network Sep 12, 2025 Full Review The President's Cake (2025) 100% A- EDIT “The President’s Cake never gets preachy with its themes, instead sharing its political anger with the viewer through our empathy for its characters.” – AwardsWatch Sep 11, 2025 Full Review The Smashing Machine (2025) 70% 5/10 EDIT “The meta-narrative of where The Smashing Machine fits into Johnson's career is more interesting than the film itself, which I found a bit of a bore.” – Looper.com Sep 10, 2025 Full Review Frankenstein (2025) 85% 7.5/10 EDIT “Taken on its own terms, Frankenstein is a compelling, at times moving, and utterly gorgeous epic. As a fan of both Del Toro and Shelley, I can't help but nitpick the details.” – Looper.com Sep 10, 2025 Full Review Roofman (2025) 87% 8/10 EDIT “This is a surprisingly sad movie — just one that also happens to be funny.” – Looper.com Sep 8, 2025 Full Review Together (2025) 89% 7.5/10 EDIT “Doing double duty as both a romcom and a twisted body horror movie is a tonal challenge that Together pulls off successfully, in large part thanks to how fun it is.” – Looper.com Jul 26, 2025 Full Review Superman (2025) 83% 9/10 EDIT “Superman is zippy blockbuster fun. But amidst all its cartoon absurdity, it might just inspire people to make a difference in this universe.” – Looper.com Jul 8, 2025 Full Review KPop Demon Hunters (2025) 92% B+ EDIT “It's energetic popcorn entertainment with a great sense of style and humor that would slay with a large audience.” – Anime News Network Jul 2, 2025 Full Review M3GAN 2.0 (2025) 57% 3/10 EDIT “If the first M3GAN was a "Don't Create The Torment Nexus" tale, its sequel is Torment Nexus propaganda.” – Looper.com Jun 25, 2025 Full Review Materialists (2025) 77% 7/10 EDIT “Materialists never reaches the passion and beauty of Song's debut romantic feature Past Lives, but it's at its most interesting and insightful when it isn't even trying to.” – Looper.com Jun 11, 2025 Full Review The Phoenician Scheme (2025) 77% 8/10 EDIT “Its approachable heart heightens the appeal of the expected surface pleasures, making this the most I've enjoyed an Anderson film since 2018's Isle of Dogs.” – Looper.com May 21, 2025 Full Review Bring Her Back (2025) 89% 8/10 EDIT “Bring Her Back genuinely disturbed me. You can decide whether that's reason to see it as soon as possible or reason to stay far away.” – Looper.com May 16, 2025 Full Review
