2/4
They Will Kill You (2026) Brian Tallerico In the end, it’s just not creative or confident enough to kill its many flaws.
Posted Mar 19, 2026  Edit critic review
3.5/4
Hokum (2026) Brian Tallerico 'Hokum’ isn’t a slow burn, but one of its strengths is how it slides in and out of shocking images and dread-filled atmosphere.

3/4
Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice (2026) Brian Tallerico It’s a comedy that’s consistently displays its eccentric personality but rarely feels like it’s desperately pushing a punchline for a laugh.
Posted Mar 19, 2026  Edit critic review
Monitor (2026) Brian Tallerico It wades into the increasingly crowded genre of how the internet is going to kill us, but with too little thematic exploration or impressive craft.
Posted Mar 19, 2026  Edit critic review
Sender (2026) Brian Tallerico The problem is that too many of Goldman’s choices as a director seem to actively be working against what Britt Lower brings to his interesting script

Imposters (2026) Brian Tallerico It’s a film rich with ideas, and its two leads never falter.
Posted Mar 19, 2026  Edit critic review
Black Zombie (2026) Brian Tallerico I still love zombie movies. I think Bedward does, too. She’s just made a film that allows you to love them in a different context.
Posted Mar 19, 2026  Edit critic review
Family Movie (2026) Brian Tallerico It’s very cool that the Bacons are so supportive and collaborative. Sadly, that can’t be all to hold onto in a movie.
Posted Mar 19, 2026  Edit critic review
Kill Me (2026) Brian Tallerico 'Kill Me' gets a bit more convoluted because the nature of the mystery requires to do so, but it actually works best when it steps back from the whodunit of it all and captures two semi-broken people becoming whole again through their connection.
Posted Mar 19, 2026  Edit critic review
Chili Finger (2026) Brian Tallerico It navigates the ridiculous and the relatable, holding both in the same beat.
Posted Mar 19, 2026  Edit critic review
2.5/4
The Rise of the Red Hot Chili Peppers: Our Brother, Hillel (2026) Brian Tallerico Like most music docs, 'The Rise of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Our Brother Hillel’ will work best for fans of its subject.

3.5/4
Power Ballad (2026) Zachary Lee It reminds us that there’s a difference between knowing lyrics in your head and treasuring a song in your heart.
Posted Mar 19, 2026  Edit critic review
3/4
Forbidden Fruits (2026) Zachary Lee It’s both a creation narrative and a story of paradise lost, how the worlds we construct to save ourselves can be both well-intentioned and perpetuate the same harms we were hoping to escape from.
Posted Mar 18, 2026  Edit critic review
3/4
Ready or Not 2: Here I Come (2026) Brian Tallerico It helps a great deal to have a wickedly fun ensemble ready to play this murderous game, led once again by a physical, engaged, immediate performance from Samara Weaving.
Posted Mar 17, 2026  Edit critic review
2.5/4
Over Your Dead Body (2026) Brian Tallerico The movie ends up being stolen by Olyphant, who hasn’t been this truly villainous in a long time.
Posted Mar 16, 2026  Edit critic review
Beyond the Duplex Planet (2026) Brian Tallerico What’s so refreshing about Greenberger’s approach, and something that’s captured well in Beth Harrington’s film, is the lack of sentimentality in his conversations.
Posted Mar 15, 2026  Edit critic review
Seahorse (2026) Brian Tallerico It’s a drama with the best of intentions that falls short by not truly committing to what I believe is its intent: Humanizing the unhoused in a way that makes them more than just figures in a news story or people overlooked on the street.
Posted Mar 15, 2026  Edit critic review
A Safe Distance (2026) Brian Tallerico Some of the material about the "freedom" of the criminal life is a bit overwritten … and the final act has a a few choices and a twist that didn’t land for me, but the bulk of 'A Safe Distance' works.
Posted Mar 15, 2026  Edit critic review
The Sun Never Sets (2026) Brian Tallerico What it lacks sometimes in dialogue, it makes up in character detail and even visuals.
Posted Mar 15, 2026  Edit critic review
Your Attention Please (2026) Brian Tallerico And how can anyone listen to Kristin Bride and not want to cheer her on? She deserves ALL of our attention.
Posted Mar 15, 2026  Edit critic review
Anima (2026) Brian Tallerico It’s a movie of pregnant pauses and deep considerations masquerading as insight, and one that’s consistently sterile in its presentation.
Posted Mar 15, 2026  Edit critic review
The Peril at Pincer Point (2026) Brian Tallerico It's aggressively weird, and that’s why it works.
Posted Mar 15, 2026  Edit critic review
The Saviors (2026) Brian Tallerico There’s just nothing to hold onto when one looks back on 'The Saviors,’ a movie that arguably would have been more interesting told from the other perspective, the POV of a refugee brother and sister dealing with their nosey neighbors.
Posted Mar 15, 2026  Edit critic review
Wishful Thinking (2026) Brian Tallerico Hawke and Pullman are both consistently spectacular, the kind of young stars who inspire hope for long careers every time they’re on screen.
Posted Mar 15, 2026  Edit critic review
1.5/4
Pretty Lethal (2026) Brian Tallerico A movie with one banger of an action sequence surrounded by thin characters, flat plotting, and even a boring climax.
Posted Mar 15, 2026  Edit critic review
3/4
Pizza Movie (2026) Zachary Lee There’s a reason why comfort movies exist, and ‘Pizza Movie’ is the type of low-calorie guilty pleasure that offers just enough new ingredients to a meal you’ve had many times before.
Posted Mar 15, 2026  Edit critic review
1/4
Reminders of Him (2026) Monica Castillo It is so preoccupied with tragedy that the romance becomes secondary. Now, after our third Hoover adaptation, it feels like we’re getting love with diminishing returns. There’s less to enjoy, even if the movie is almost two hours long.
Posted Mar 13, 2026  Edit critic review
2/4
The Gates (2026) Robert Daniels Van Der Beek keeps the film interesting and guarded, even when it tries so hard to blurt out its every theme and lesson. So while "The Gates" itself isn’t a total smash, it’s a more than sturdy final effort from a beloved actor.
Posted Mar 13, 2026  Edit critic review
2.5/4
Bodycam (2025) Simon Abrams For a while, the found-footage horror thriller "Bodycam" appears to have something to say and, therefore, a better-than-average sense of how to handle its subgenre’s tropes and tics. Then, in the last 10-15 minutes, the illusion is spoiled.
Posted Mar 13, 2026  Edit critic review
1/4
Slanted (2025) Peyton Robinson The whole film is quite meek in its approach, timidly dipping its toes into camp, satire, cultural criticism, and body horror, but never fully embracing any of them.
Posted Mar 13, 2026  Edit critic review
3/4
I Love Boosters (2026) Brian Tallerico It’s a wickedly clever skewering of the moral rot at the center of the fashion industry delivered with enough vision to make your eyes hurt.
Posted Mar 13, 2026  Edit critic review
2.5/4
The Optimist: The Bravest Act Is Truth (2023) Matt Zoller Seitz This movie is a mess, but it has soul.
Posted Mar 11, 2026  Edit critic review
On a String (2025) Peter Sobczynski A very funny and incisive debut feature from writer-director-star Isabel Hagen (who) demonstrates genuine wit on both sides of the camera.
Posted Mar 11, 2026  Edit critic review
2.5/4
Project Hail Mary (2026) Robert Daniels It’s an enjoyable, yet overly familiar, excursion. By disavowing narrative and aesthetic boundaries, 'Project Hail Mary' struggles to become boundless.
Posted Mar 10, 2026  Edit critic review
1.5/4
Heel (The Good Boy) (2025) Jourdain Searles There's something inescapably artificial about the social commentary here. Like many genre films this decade, ‘Heel’ feels glaringly incomplete.
Posted Mar 06, 2026  Edit critic review
1/4
Protector (2025) Monica Castillo Dragged down by over-explanatory dialogue and tired narrative tropes, 'Protector' brings nothing new to the table–except maybe for a confounding 11th hour twist that I won’t spoil that defies reasoning and frankly, good taste.
Posted Mar 06, 2026  Edit critic review
2/4
Dolly (2025) Katie Rife It is quite repellant, which in this case can be read as a compliment; it is what Blackhurst was going for, after all. Scratch the surface, however, and it’s less flattering, one predictable element among many in this utterly predictable film.
Posted Mar 06, 2026  Edit critic review
2/4
War Machine (2026) Monica Castillo It’s not a movie built to withstand big questions, but for a high-octane action thriller, it’s a lot more fun when it goes off the rails.
Posted Mar 06, 2026  Edit critic review
1/4
Didn't Die (2025) Cortlyn Kelly It is a zombie movie with no zest. No thrill, no stakes, and no meaning.
Posted Mar 06, 2026  Edit critic review
4/4
Pompei: Below the Clouds (2025) Sheila O'Malley Time destroys, preserves, and then returns (one hopes, at least). Rosi’s film is a meditative and moving document showing that process and possibility.
Posted Mar 06, 2026  Edit critic review
3/4
THE BRIDE! (2026) Tomris Laffly The results aren’t always satisfying, but what’s satisfying is to see Gyllenhaal operate in this limitless "I’ll try anything once" mode, an entitlement rarely afforded to women behind the camera.
Posted Mar 04, 2026  Edit critic review
4/4
André Is an Idiot (2025) Marya E. Gates With this project, André creates space, through his frank humor and endless curiosity, to really talk about death with a rare and candid honesty.
Posted Mar 03, 2026  Edit critic review
4/4
Hoppers (2026) Nell Minow 'Hoppers’ is Pixar at its best, a story with warmth, humor, exciting action, endearing characters, and a reassuringly expansive notion of community.
Posted Mar 02, 2026  Edit critic review
2.5/4
Paul McCartney: Man on the Run (2025) Matt Zoller Seitz This one tells an involving story (for fans, anyway) but serves mainly as advertising and image maintenance for its star, and an investment for him and various parties that represent the star’s music, past and future.
Posted Mar 02, 2026  Edit critic review
3/4
For Worse (2025) Matt Zoller Seitz This is a more-than-solid observational comedy with a melancholy undertone, reminiscent of early Albert Brooks movies like 'Modern Romance.'
Posted Mar 02, 2026  Edit critic review
2.5/4
Crazy Old Lady (2025) Carlos Aguilar The film allows Maura to mutate from the vulnerability of a woman grappling with long-suppressed trauma to the deranged glee of someone enjoying causing their victim pain.
Posted Feb 27, 2026  Edit critic review
2.5/4
K-Pops! (2024) Clint Worthington It’s almost a blessing that 'K-Pops!’ is maybe the healthiest, sunniest example of an American artist leveraging his life story into cinematic form.
Posted Feb 27, 2026  Edit critic review
3.5/4
EPiC: Elvis Presley in Concert (2025) Sheila O'Malley Baz Luhrmann, the current Poet Laureate of Elvis, wants to not only bridge the gap between the image and the man, but to celebrate the image—and the man—in as unadulterated a way as possible.
Posted Feb 27, 2026  Edit critic review
1.5/4
Dreams (2025) Brian Tallerico It is so aggressively affectless that it’s ultimately as forgettable as its title, something you might half-remember after waking up.
Posted Feb 27, 2026  Edit critic review
1.5/4
Undercard (2025) Peyton Robinson ‘Undercard’ is a relationship drama disguised as a boxing film, but it doesn’t succeed in either realm.
