The Curse of Bridge Hollow (2022) |
Overall, The Curse of Bridge Hollow is something that we could all use a bit more of: good laughs, fun drama, and Priah Ferguson, our American hero. - Nerdist

Halloween Ends (2022) |
If this really is the last Halloween film, it’s a worthy if uneven finale. But if not, it’ll be interesting to see where it goes next. - Nerdist

Hellraiser (2022) |
A really great addition to the Hellraiser series that sits comfortably as just another chapter in the sprawling legend of the Lament Configuration rather than diminishing what came before. - Nerdist

Thor: Love and Thunder (2022) |
All in all... it’s another super fun superhero flick from Waititi, who cements himself as one of the MCU’s most exciting and original directors. - Nerdist

Jurassic World Dominion (2022) |
Something that was particularly exciting for this reviewer was the way this movie connected to the original Jurassic Park—both film and novel—in unexpected ways. - Nerdist

X (2022) |
This delightfully dark and surprisingly complex flick feels unbelievably fresh. Its influences inspire innovation rather than shackling X to the other derivative tropes we’ve come to expect from ’70s throwback horror. - Nerdist

Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021) |
It's hard to live up to the expectations of a film like Spider-Man: No Way Home. And yet, somehow Jon Watts' charming, emotional, and funny third Spidey movie does just that. - Nerdist

Clifford the Big Red Dog (2021) |
Working as a sort of pre-school mashup of Paddington and Okja, Clifford the Big Red Dog is a serviceable and silly kids film. It's at its best when it leans into kindness and community, and struggles when it tries for big comedy moments. - IGN Movies

Eternals (2021) |
Tropes be damned, Zhao carves out unexpectedly human immortals who actually care about each other. They love and hate and fight and forgive and feud and feel together. It's a refreshingly emotional take. - Nerdist

The Suicide Squad (2021) |
The Suicide Squad might be the kindest superhero film ever made. Sure, it's about criminals forced into life-threatening missions at the promise of freedom and the threat of death. But under all that ultra violence lies something far sweeter. - Nerdist

The Hitman's Wife's Bodyguard (2021) |
There's not much to praise here. The script is beyond parody, the jokes fall flat, and it arguably wastes some of Hollywood's biggest names. - IGN Movies

The Feast (2021) |

Detention (2019) |
