A
Obsession (2025) Ryan McQuade Obsession is a new modern horror masterpiece [and] one of the best horror films of the decade so far.

B
The Sun Never Sets (2026) Ryan McQuade While it can feel a little repetitive, that seems to be the point as The Sun Never Sets is a darkly funny, emotionally matter a fact journey of that the love you need sometimes isn’t another person.

Wishful Thinking (2026) Ryan McQuade Hawke and Pullman are electric together, easily delivering the best work of their young careers so far.

Never After Dark (2026) Kevin L. Lee Boyle makes the most out of his singular location, and with a committed and compelling lead, he guides this unique J-horror with a steady hand.

C
Pretty Lethal (2026) Kevin L. Lee Everything that surrounds the girls’ circumstances feels uninteresting, from the villains’ political infighting to the tacked-on explanations for character motivations.

C+
Over Your Dead Body (2026) Ryan McQuade Saved only by the work of Segel and Weaving performances, Over Your Dead Body barely gets to live as its own thing, even though it feels tied down so much to its original source material, losing a chance to be creative with this world.

Power Ballad (2026) Ryan McQuade Carney's emotional connection is there and it never fails to impress as he’s been doing it consistently for such a long time. This time, however, the ace up his sleeve is Rudd, who delivers one of the best performances of his extensive career...

Ready or Not 2: Here I Come (2026) Ryan McQuade Ready or Not 2: Here I Come is an improvement on the first film in every way and does make me excited to see what they do next, even if it is more tales of Grace and Faith (the silliest names ever, by the way).

Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice (2026) Trace Sauveur Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice is a genuinely charming and touching friendship story and romance that takes its characters’ motivations to heart and endears its audience to this motley assortment of silly, feeling characters.

A
All That's Left of You (2025) Tariq Ra'ouf Dabis achieves something so rarely done in such a short amount of time: She depicts the lived experience of the average Palestinian family — an experience of displacement, heartbreak, and grief that follows you around for generations.

A-
Project Hail Mary (2026) Trace Sauveur It may not be the next generational sci-fi classic, but Project Hail Mary will energize anyone desperate for studio blockbusters that revere something often lost in our biggest movies: the fundamental art of moviemaking.
Posted Mar 10, 2026  Edit critic review
D
THE BRIDE! (2026) Trace Sauveur The hard truth is that The Bride!‘s shotgun-blast of moods and styles just doesn’t work, compounded by the script’s desperate socio-political reach. There are glimpses of a more fun movie in its less self-important elements.

B+
Hoppers (2026) Jay Ledbetter Hoppers doesn’t pretend to have some sort of grandiose sense of importance, with a message of general human understanding and appreciation for the natural world, but that sentiment bears fruit when the characters are drawn so precisely.
Posted Mar 02, 2026  Edit critic review
B-
Flies (2026) Mia Pflueger Moscas feels strikingly controlled. Eimbcke clearly draws from neorealist traditions, yet he adopts primarily their observational impulse rather than their radical edge.
Posted Feb 21, 2026  Edit critic review
C-
The Blood Countess (2026) Mia Pflueger Through it all, Huppert remains steadfast. Regal and incisive, she imbues the Countess with a faint current of existential fatigue, hinting at a melancholy about immortality that the surrounding film scarcely earns.

C-
How to Make a Killing (2026) Jay Ledbetter The technical aspects are all pretty sleek and it is clear that Ford can make good use of a bigger budget from a painterly perspective, though his grittier work on Emily the Criminal was much more thematically resonant.
Posted Feb 18, 2026  Edit critic review
C
At the Sea (2026) Mia Pflueger At the Sea does not seem to be the kind of material that will carry Amy Adams back to potential Oscar triumph, but it is undeniably a significant step up from some of her projects in recent years.

A-
Rose (2026) Mia Pflueger When Sandra Hüller wraps herself in the costume of masculinity, she does more than inhabit a role. She turns defiance into freedom.
Posted Feb 16, 2026  Edit critic review
B+
Mouse (2026) Mia Pflueger Lead actress Katherine Mallen Kupferer anchors this tension with remarkable restraint. Her performance is subtle but deeply affecting, portraying Minnie not as a passive victim, but as a young woman tentatively shaping her identity through loss.

Crime 101 (2026) Jay Ledbetter This is a movie that deserves to be taken seriously. Derivation be damned, Crime 101 can stand on its own.

C+
Wuthering Heights (2026) Sophia Ciminello Despite the gorgeous visuals and Fennell’s ability to illustrate the characters’ intense feelings, these bold flourishes feel surface-level, masking deeper, underlying issues in the screenplay.

C+
zi (2026) Kevin L. Lee Kogonada has always been a filmmaker whose warmth has moved me immensely. zi is a step in the right direction aesthetically, but it’s such a shame that when you reach out for something to hold onto, there’s mostly just air.

B-
Josephine (2026) Erik Anderson Knowing that the story is inspired by de Araújo’s own experience lends credence to some of Damien and Claire’s almost irrationally irresponsible parenting but their actions will have you reaching for child protective services...

B+
undertone (2025) Kevin L. Lee Perhaps the biggest achievement in Undertone is the way it "conditions" us to start imagining things that may or may not be there. Tuason fully understands that the audience is capable of freaking themselves out.

B-
The Weight (2026) Karen M. Peterson Every aspect of the plot comes from some other story we’ve seen or heard before. We can guess before the journey even begins who won’t make it, who will try to double-cross the others, and who will save the day.

The Only Living Pickpocket in New York (2026) Karen M. Peterson I have not stopped thinking about The Only Living Pickpocket in New York for days. It is a powerful blend of old-style filmmaking and new that deserves to be studied and revisited often.

C+
Gail Daughtry and the Celebrity Sex Pass (2026) Kevin L. Lee The crazy part is that even with all the noise and bloated subplots – a main one involves Gail and company being pursued by a mob – it’s remarkable to see how "committed to the bit" the film is.

See You When I See You (2026) Martin Tsai See You When I See You is not without feeling, but it is reluctant to linger in messiness, to let scenes run long enough to discover something unplanned.

A
In the Blink of an Eye (2026) Martin Tsai On paper, In the Blink of an Eye reads as forbiddingly ambitious, a piece of high-concept science fiction that risks crumbling under the weight of its own ideas. Stanton, however, has a long history of coaxing intimacy out of enormity.

Wicker (2026) Karen M. Peterson [Olivia] Colman is great in dignified and serious roles, but it’s so much fun when she doffs the suits and posh British manners in favor of unrefined, unrestrained humor.

The Invite (2026) Karen M. Peterson The most remarkable thing about The Invite is not the films it is like, but in the way we are invited to be part of something special, thoughtful, and refreshingly hopeful.

Send Help (2026) Jay Ledbetter Send Help is not in the upper-tier of Raimi’s work, but it’s hard not to love seeing him back where he belongs: making graphic, hilarious movies with morally ambiguous characters.

The Gallerist (2026) Karen M. Peterson The Gallerist has so many big ideas and juggles them all like a skillfully choreographed routine...as Andy Warhol said in a quote that opens the film, "Art is what you can get away with," and Cathy Yan can get away with quite a lot.

Saccharine (2026) Kevin L. Lee What do you get when you mix generational trauma and health wellness and sexual identity and ghosts and cadavers and diet culture and binge eating all in a blender?

I Want Your Sex (2026) Karen M. Peterson [Cooper] Hoffman has already proven himself a talented actor, but his work in I Want Your Sex is his most brazen, fearless performance so far.

B
The Moment (2026) Martin Tsai In an era when music documentaries increasingly function as deluxe extensions of public relations campaigns, The Moment is notable for its refusal to mythologize its subject. It plays less like a victory lap than a confession...

Return to Silent Hill (2026) Trace Sauveur Return to Silent Hill never captures the smothering, oppressive dread of the game, mainly because it’s a property with a premise built on immersion.

B
28 Years Later: The Bone Temple (2026) Trace Sauveur If the film is missing the remarkable visual artistry of the first film, from which it also alters its narrative focus, it provides a welcome, heavy emphasis on Fiennes, who gives a curious, soulful performance.
Posted Jan 13, 2026  Edit critic review
D
The Housemaid (2025) Karen M. Peterson For a movie that could have been an entertaining, twisty thriller, it winds up being laughable and eye-rolling instead.

Avatar: Fire and Ash (2025) Kevin L. Lee Fire and Ash is the biggest, heaviest, most epic Avatar film to date. Cameron continues to take big swings at his material, while opening up his world to even more possibilities for future stories.

B-
Ella McCay (2025) Cody Dericks Despite the intentionally absent details (we aren’t even definitively told what political party Ella belongs to), Ella McCay – both the film and the character – is delightful, at times mystifyingly so.

Marty Supreme (2025) Sophia Ciminello What’s exciting about watching Chalamet in Marty Supreme is that he’s finally able to play a New Yorker, never making the character’s over-the-top theatrics feel like loud moments of over-acting. You can feel him itching to create his own take on Pacino.

Zootopia 2 (2025) Trace Sauveur Zootopia 2 has an endearingly zippy energy and refuses to sink to the rock-bottom depths of mindless children’s entertainment, making it refreshingly watchable for adults.

Wicked: For Good (2025) Sophia Ciminello Despite stellar work from Erivo and Grande, Wicked: For Good can’t justify its existence as its own separate outing.

The Running Man (2025) Jay Ledbetter It's a testament to Edgar Wright that The Running Man feels like a little bit of a letdown, as it never bores and has ideas on its mind, which is more than most movies can say

Now You See Me: Now You Don't (2025) Trace Sauveur More than anything else, it always feels like these characters can get away with anything, nullifying any excitement or stakes, because ultimately they’re just putting on a charade for astoundingly oblivious people.

Song Sung Blue (2025) Karen M. Peterson When it works, one of the great things about Song Sung Blue is the compassion and realism with which it treats the lower middle class of America’s heartland.

Palestine '36 (2025) Cody Dericks Although it’s understandable that Jacir would want to cover as much ground as possible when telling the story of such a wide-ranging, complicated event, the film isn’t structured in a way that builds energy in a captivating way.

Whitetail (2025) Cody Dericks [Natasha] O’Keeffe really is that great, giving a physical performance that does a better job at providing the film with depth than the shockingly shallow spoken words.

Put Your Soul on Your Hand and Walk (2025) Cody Dericks It just may stand as one of the most important films about the Gaza genocide, showcasing the bravery and perseverence of the Palestinian people even as they face undeniably mightier forces.
