2.5/4
Fantasy Life (2025) Chris Barsanti Amanda Peet finds layers of shading in what could have been a dull and simplistic role.

3/4
Forbidden Fruits (2026) Ross McIndoe The film is a witchy mall comedy that mostly keeps you under its spell.

2.5/4
Pretty Lethal (2026) Ross McIndoe The film is lean, mean, and feisty, even if it doesn’t quite stick the landing.

4/5
The Howling (1981) Eric Henderson Dante foregrounds his werewolves’ cartoon carnality by any means necessary, often finding endearingly clumsy parallels between mastication and copulation.

2/4
Ready or Not 2: Here I Come (2026) Justin Clark The sequel is a retread of things that the first film pulled off with more deliciously cartoonish energy.

2.5/4
Marc by Sofia (2025) Marshall Shaffer It proves entertaining and enlightening when exploring Jacobs’ contributions to the world of fashion. But more often, it’s just like listening in on an engaging chat between two artist friends who share a fan-like admiration of each other’s craft.

2/4
Late Shift (2025) William Repass For all its empathy, Late Shift upholds the dubious virtue of self-sacrifice that underpins the Protestant work ethic.
Posted Mar 12, 2026  Edit critic review
Lumière! The Adventure Continues (2024) Marshall Shaffer Thierry Frémaux’s tribute is at its best when it spotlights just how much can still be rediscovered in the Lumière brothers’ formidable filmography, over 130 years after they filmed workers leaving the factory.

2.5/4
Dead Lover (2025) Steven Nguyen Scaife The can-do spirit of Dead Lover, as evidenced by the way it couples goofy sound effects with cuts and camera movements, takes it a long way.
Posted Mar 12, 2026  Edit critic review
1.5/4
Reminders of Him (2026) Derek Smith Vanessa Caswill’s film feels reverse engineered to maximize emotional impact.
Posted Mar 11, 2026  Edit critic review
The Big Risk (1960) Derek Smith Classe Tous Risques takes as its subject the masculine codes of honor that are upheld and broken by those who dare to live outside the law.
Posted Mar 10, 2026  Edit critic review
2.5/4
Project Hail Mary (2026) Jake Cole Phil Lord and Christopher Miller put a comedic spin on Andy Weir’s more straightforward 2021 novel Project Hail Mary, recasting the author’s hopeful vision of productive communication with extraterrestrials as an unlikely buddy comedy.
Posted Mar 10, 2026  Edit critic review
Testament (1983) Jake Cole Originally produced for PBS’s American Playhouse, Lynne Littman’s Testament is one of that program’s standout entries, a vision of nuclear apocalypse whose horrors are felt rather than seen.
Posted Mar 09, 2026  Edit critic review
Blue Sunshine (1976) Budd Wilkins The film delivers a deft fusion of horror-movie tropes, social satire, and cult-film weirdness.
Posted Mar 05, 2026  Edit critic review
3/4
THE BRIDE! (2026) Justin Clark Maggie Gyllenhaal’s The Bride is a shotgun blast of a movie with no fealty to the conventions of modern gothic horror.
Posted Mar 04, 2026  Edit critic review
RoboCop (1987) Chris Cabin RoboCop remains a bold and feral black comedy, a bleak satire on corporate excess and capitalism and, finally, a sly doppelganger of America’s favorite film genre.
Posted Mar 04, 2026  Edit critic review
RoboCop 2 (1990) Chris Cabin A lively dialectic on the concept of corporate efficiency and humanism had become a tasteless joke told without a lick of comedic sense.
Posted Mar 04, 2026  Edit critic review
RoboCop 3 (1993) Chris Cabin Boring and thoughtless.
Posted Mar 04, 2026  Edit critic review
Krakatit (1948) Derek Smith Otakar Vávra’s deeply strange and unsettling sci-fi mystery about a world hellbent on self-destruction rings as true today as it surely did in the wake of World War II.
Posted Mar 03, 2026  Edit critic review
2/4
Hoppers (2026) Eli Friedberg It falls well short of providing any satisfying exploration of its weighty theme of persuasion versus violence in the face of oppression.
Posted Mar 02, 2026  Edit critic review
3/4
Heel (The Good Boy) (2025) Steven Nguyen Scaife By keeping some of its cards close to its chest, Heel respects our intelligence, which helps it to earn its sneakily moving ending.
Posted Mar 01, 2026  Edit critic review
2/4
Salvation (2026) David Robb When its overlapping allegorical notes harmonize, the film resonates with urgency and genuine horror, but they can also stifle the human aspects of the tragedy depicted.
Posted Mar 01, 2026  Edit critic review
3/4
Erupcja (2025) Ross McIndoe While it isn’t an overt examination of it in the manner of The Moment, the film does feel like a natural cinematic extension of Charli XCX’s melancholy party-girl persona.
Posted Feb 28, 2026  Edit critic review
2.5/4
Scream 7 (2026) Taylor Williams This surprisingly refreshing take on familiar material is unconcerned with meta discussions about where the film stands in the canon.
Posted Feb 26, 2026  Edit critic review
1/4
In the Blink of an Eye (2026) Jake Cole Andrew Stanton's film feels less like a film than a commercial for life insurance that got out of hand.
Posted Feb 25, 2026  Edit critic review
4/4
Queen at Sea (2026) Diego Semerene This is an unvarnished portrait of a family rendered dysfunctional by the inevitability of death.
Posted Feb 24, 2026  Edit critic review
2/4
Dolly (2025) Steven Nguyen Scaife One senses that Rod Blackhurst knows that Dolly is undernourished, but his attempts to jazz it up by splitting it into transparently titled chapters only calls further attention to that dearth of imagination.
Posted Feb 23, 2026  Edit critic review
3/4
Mouse (2026) David Robb This is subject matter that might sound heavy, but the difficult feelings dredged up never overwhelm the film’s gentle, character-driven approach.
Posted Feb 23, 2026  Edit critic review
3.5/4
My Wife Cries (2026) Zach Lewis The film starts off as an ostensibly simple tale of infidelity before it begins to grapple with even more anxious themes as it shuffles its characters into a series of memorable tableaux.
Posted Feb 21, 2026  Edit critic review
2.5/4
Ghost Elephants (2025) Derek Smith Ghost Elephants shows that Werner Herzog is fiercely determined to explore new frontiers while they still exist and capture the poetic phenomena of nature and the unshakeable dreams it continues to instill in mankind.
Posted Feb 19, 2026  Edit critic review
2.5/4
Wolfram (2025) David Robb While Wolfram might struggle to convey a depth of feeling for its characters and the brutal, dehumanizing frontier they call home, it can be an intermittently satisfying good-versus-evil period piece.
Posted Feb 19, 2026  Edit critic review
3.5/4
In A Whisper (2026) Diego Semerene Leyla Bouzid’s ability to capture the complexities and contradictions of familial affection is what makes In a Whisper so impressive.
Posted Feb 19, 2026  Edit critic review
2.5/4
Nightborn (2026) Zach Lewis Even if the film has few surprises in store for us, there’s something pleasingly unpretentious about how it leaves little room for subtext throughout.

3/4
Rose (2026) Diego Semerene Freudians will have a field day with Markus Schleinzer’s 17th-century-set folk tale.

How to Make a Killing (2026) Alexander Mooney John Patton Ford cultivates an old-school flair while keeping one finger on the pulse of the current moment.
Posted Feb 18, 2026  Edit critic review
1/4
This Is Not a Test (2025) Ross McIndoe The film struggles to bring its non-zombie characters to life.
Posted Feb 18, 2026  Edit critic review
1.5/4
Rosebush Pruning (2026) David Robb Only cheap shock value can be gleaned from the film’s cavalcade of blood, semen, animal carcasses, dick pics, and erotic toothbrushing.
Posted Feb 17, 2026  Edit critic review
2.5/4
Redux Redux (2025) Steven Nguyen Scaife Easy as it may be to imagine a more artful, restrained, and introspective version of Redux Redux, the one we got is satisfying enough that you may want to take it out for another spin.
Posted Feb 16, 2026  Edit critic review
2.5/4
Yellow Letters (2026) David Robb While the film’s deft spinning of multiple plates is impressive for a good hour or so, what it’s serving up eventually starts to feel a little undercooked.
Posted Feb 14, 2026  Edit critic review
Network (1976) Derek Smith Half a century later, Sidney Lumet’s Network remains a darkly humorous and relevant treatise on capitalism’s erosion of morality.
Posted Feb 13, 2026  Edit critic review
Bride of Re-Animator (1990) Chuck Bowen Bride of Re-Animator is a cold and limp retread of the first film.
Posted Feb 11, 2026  Edit critic review
2/4
Crime 101 (2026) Kyle Turner Like its main character’s modus operandi as a criminal, the film goes through all the pro forma motions.
Posted Feb 11, 2026  Edit critic review
3/4
Nirvanna the Band the Show the Movie (2025) Marshall Shaffer The film offers a joyous throwback to the optimistic feeling of the early internet creator era.
Posted Feb 10, 2026  Edit critic review
2/4
Wuthering Heights (2026) Rocco T. Thompson Like a particularly impressive aspic, Wuthering Heights is tantalizing to behold but not so easy to swallow.
Posted Feb 09, 2026  Edit critic review
2.5/4
Honey Bunch (2025) Steven Nguyen Scaife The film’s climax is an unexpectedly tender spectacle of body horror.
Posted Feb 08, 2026  Edit critic review
A Woman Under the Influence (1974) Derek Smith John Cassavetes’s films were born out of emotional truth.
Posted Feb 08, 2026  Edit critic review
2.5/4
By Design (2025) William Repass By forcing us to identify with its largely comatose protagonist, By Design arouses resentment in order to shake us out of torpor.
Posted Feb 07, 2026  Edit critic review
My Father's Shadow (2025) Derek Smith Hope and fear are inextricably bound in Akinola Davies Jr.’s semi-autobiographical film.
Posted Feb 07, 2026  Edit critic review
1/4
The Strangers: Chapter 3 (2026) David Robb It’s easy to imagine the nihilistic avenues that Chapter 3 could have gone down.
