Wicked: For Good (2025) 66% EDIT “Anyway, if you were planning to see Wicked: For Good in theaters, there’s probably not much I can say that will dissuade you. Just go into it expecting that you might find this visit to the Emerald City disappointing.” – WORLD Nov 22, 2025 Full Review Hamnet (2025) 86% EDIT “Hamnet offers a moving interpretation of the Shakespearean mythos that considers both how grief shapes creativity and how creativity can help us heal from loss.” – WORLD Nov 14, 2025 Full Review Eternity (2025) 77% EDIT “On the whole, the film substitutes perverse joking for the witty banter and gentle humor found in the best romantic comedies. And the frisson of passion is wholly absent. ” – WORLD Nov 14, 2025 Full Review In Your Dreams (2025) 86% EDIT “The talk about the parents’ potential split-up felt a bit heavy for a kids show. I can’t imagine this movie would make children, regardless of their parents’ marital status, feel better.” – WORLD Nov 14, 2025 Full Review Train Dreams (2025) 95% EDIT “These rather banal and heavy-handed observations concerning the world’s interconnectedness and the nature of passing time would be quite unforgivable in a less beautiful film, but as it so happens ... Bentley has created an extraordinarily beautiful film.” – WORLD Nov 14, 2025 Full Review Nuremberg (2025) 72% EDIT “The Nazis aren’t any different from you or me. They were evil because they were human, and we fool ourselves if we think that 80 years later sin no longer crouches at our own doors.” – WORLD Oct 22, 2025 Full Review A HOUSE OF DYNAMITE (2025) 75% EDIT “A House of Dynamite is an unsettling movie because it shows just how thinkable the unthinkable really is.” – WORLD Oct 22, 2025 Full Review Gabby's Dollhouse: The Movie (2025) 88% EDIT “Kids in that preschool age range will love Gabby’s big bold adventure as she rescues her friends. And honestly, most parents won’t mind spending an hour and a half at the dollhouse either.” – WORLD Oct 10, 2025 Full Review TRON: Ares (2025) 53% EDIT “And speaking of Leto, it seems the overhyped method actor has finally found the perfect role by playing a soulless algorithm. It’s terribly ironic that ChatGPT has more personality than Leto’s Ares.” – WORLD Oct 10, 2025 Full Review Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale (2025) 91% EDIT “Fellowes offers viewers some clever dialogue, but for the most part the film relies on our craving for nostalgia to impart pleasure, rather than its own merit.” – WORLD Sep 12, 2025 Full Review KPop Demon Hunters (2025) 92% EDIT “I was honestly surprised at how well the entire movie was executed.” – WORLD Aug 25, 2025 Full Review Shari & Lamb Chop (2023) 92% EDIT “Lewis demonstrated jaw-dropping talent with her tightly clenched mouth, but a melancholy hangs over her life.” – WORLD Aug 15, 2025 Full Review Ne Zha II (2025) 91% EDIT “Despite becoming a cultural phenomenon in China, Ne Zha II isn’t likely to become a family favorite with Americans.” – WORLD Aug 15, 2025 Full Review The Fantastic Four: First Steps (2025) 86% EDIT “It’s just vanilla. But it’s vanilla with some cool vintage sprinkles, so I’ll give it a thumbs up.” – WORLD Jul 25, 2025 Full Review Smurfs (2025) 21% EDIT “No need to put any effort into it. Just give us a recognizable character that tickles our nostalgia and throw in the celebrity of the moment.” – WORLD Jul 18, 2025 Full Review Superman (2025) 83% EDIT “The overall vibe of the movie is very traditional, respecting the old comics as well as the Christopher Reeves version of the hero. But Gunn also takes some big swings.” – WORLD Jul 11, 2025 Full Review Jurassic World Rebirth (2025) 50% EDIT “In Jurassic World Rebirth, the average person has become uninterested in dinosaurs. It’s an apt metaphor for the state of this venerable franchise.” – WORLD Jul 7, 2025 Full Review F1 The Movie (2025) 82% EDIT “"The film is fun to watch. But honestly the story doesn’t contain many surprises. It sticks to the same formula—no pun intended—used by just about every other racing movie."” – WORLD Jun 27, 2025 Full Review Elio (2025) 83% EDIT “The film is technically impressive, but artistically uninspiring.” – WORLD Jun 22, 2025 Full Review Karate Kid: Legends (2025) 58% EDIT “We’re a far cry from 1984, when kids everywhere, including me, were perfecting their crane kicks.” – WORLD May 30, 2025 Full Review Lilo & Stitch (2025) 72% EDIT “On the whole, this new Lilo & Stitch is a competent remake with nice tweaks, but it’s lacking some sparkle. ... The cinematography isn’t very… cinematic. The film still resembles the straight to Disney+ movie it was originally intended to be.” – WORLD May 23, 2025 Full Review Deaf President Now! (2025) 100% EDIT “Deaf President Now! isn’t just the story of this single moment. It uses the events of that one week at Gallaudet as a window into the deaf world.” – WORLD May 16, 2025 Full Review Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning (2025) 80% EDIT “This tribute contains some nice moments, but it fails as a Mission: Impossible movie.” – WORLD May 16, 2025 Full Review Thunderbolts* (2025) 88% EDIT “Thunderbolts* possesses a kind of meta-commentary on the Marvel Cinematic Universe that I found appealing. The characters talk about their world in a way that acknowledges the fact that the franchise is in shambles.” – WORLD May 2, 2025 Full Review Drop (2025) 83% EDIT “Hitchcockian.” – WORLD Apr 11, 2025 Full Review
