Return to Silent Hill (2026) 18% 5/10 EDIT “It’s ultimately an adaptation that fails to improve upon the source material or do anything particularly new and interesting. Those craving a truly great psychological horror experience are better off booting up a version of Silent Hill 2.” – IGN Movies Jan 21, 2026 Full Review Hellboy: The Crooked Man (2024) 37% 6/10 EDIT “While the low-budget trappings often work against the film’s horror elements, The Crooked Man nonetheless proves to be a satisfying comic book adaptation in a year marked by far more expensive misfires.” – IGN Movies Oct 9, 2024 Full Review Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths Part Two (2024) 14% 4/10 EDIT “A lackluster follow-up to an already flawed opening act. Despite revolving around a group of heroes battling to save existence from total annihilation, the film struggles to build meaningful stakes and establish a sense of dramatic weight. ” – IGN Movies Apr 23, 2024 Full Review Batman and Superman: Battle of the Super Sons (2022) 100% 7/10 EDIT “The plot is straightforward and predictable to a fault... Even so, the film succeeds where it matters most by capturing the wonderful dynamic between Jon Kent and Damian Wayne.” – IGN Movies Oct 8, 2022 Full Review Catwoman: Hunted (2022) 78% 9/10 EDIT “This new DC Universe Movies release benefits from a strong, efficient script and a talented voice cast as it explores a jewel heist gone horribly wrong. But above all, it succeeds in merging DC's superhero universe with a strong anime aesthetic.” – IGN Movies Feb 3, 2022 Full Review Injustice: Gods Among Us (2021) 50% 4/10 EDIT “Injustice fails to make good on its considerable promise. This animated movie attempts to cram far too much of the source material into one film, forcing it to sacrifice a huge amount of character development and key plot points along the way.” – IGN Movies Oct 14, 2021 Full Review Batman: The Long Halloween, Part One (2021) 100% 8/10 EDIT “A well-crafted addition to the revamped DC Universe Movies line. It faithfully adapts the comic book source material while still veering in its own direction at times.” – IGN Movies Jun 23, 2021 Full Review Justice Society: World War II (2021) 76% 9/10 EDIT “It draws just the right amount of inspiration from the source material while also pulling from adventure movies like Raiders of the Lost Ark to spin an entertaining superhero yarn.” – IGN Movies Apr 28, 2021 Full Review Batman: Soul of the Dragon (2021) 93% 7/10 EDIT “The film is light on plot and heavy on action and '70s martial arts movie tropes. It also boasts a strong voice cast, many of whom would be equally at home in a live-action version.” – IGN Movies Jan 12, 2021 Full Review Batman: Death in the Family (2020) 78% 6/10 EDIT “It's a novel approach that gives Death in the Family more rewatch value than most. But ultimately, the movie is let down by its small scope and the fact that so many of the possible storylines wind up leading Jason down similar paths” – IGN Movies Oct 14, 2020 Full Review Netflix vs. the World (2019) 8/10 EDIT “Netflix vs. The World shows us how the current entertainment landscape could have been a vastly different place if not for a few bad business decisions, and that alone makes this documentary well worth watching.” – IGN Movies May 11, 2020 Full Review Justice League Dark: Apokolips War (2020) 100% 8/10 EDIT “This film takes full advantage of the fact that it's the final chapter in a 15-movie arc. Its narrative veers into some very surprising and compelling directions, and somehow it manages to pay off on loose ends from across the DCU.” – IGN Movies May 6, 2020 Full Review Superman: Red Son (2020) 89% 7/10 EDIT “The source material is well-suited to this format, and it offers a rare opportunity to explore a morally conflicted version of the Man of Steel and a less villainous version of Lex Luthor.” – IGN Movies Feb 27, 2020 Full Review Batman: Hush (2019) 83% 7.8/10 EDIT “In terms of its story, this is one of the more engaging animated DC movies to come along in a while. It's surprisingly faithful to the source material even as it crams a winding narrative and a large ensemble cast into a tight, 80-minute movie.” – IGN Movies Jul 24, 2019 Full Review Game of Thrones: The Last Watch (2019) 100% 8.8/10 EDIT “In terms of giving fans a better idea of the countless moving parts involved in a project like Game of Thrones, and in terms of spotlighting a few of the many people who labor behind the scenes, "The Last Watch" is a very satisfying coda to the series.” – IGN Movies May 30, 2019 Full Review The Death of Superman / Reign of the Supermen Double Feature (2019) 93% 6.5/10 EDIT “Reign of the Supermen is an improvement over its predecessor, but it still lacks emotional punch.” – IGN Movies Jan 18, 2019 Full Review United We Fan (2018) 100% 7.4/10 EDIT “United We Fan is a brisk, enjoyable look at the way TV fan culture has evolved since the days when Star Trek first flirted with cancellation.” – IGN Movies Dec 4, 2018 Full Review Constantine: City of Demons (2018) 7.5/10 EDIT “The movie manages to remain faithful to the comic book source material while also making some clever changes of its own. It's just too bad that the clean, simple animation style doesn't quite do justice to the subject matter.” – IGN Movies Oct 11, 2018 Full Review 8.3/10 EDIT “Those looking for a fun, goofy crossover adventure won't be disappointed.” – IGN Movies Jan 11, 2018 Full Review Batman & Bill (2017) 88% 8.5/10 EDIT “It doesn't cover every topic or feature every interviewee fans might want, but Batman & Bill offers a satisfying, in-depth look at the life and legacy of Bill Finger.” – IGN Movies May 4, 2017 Full Review Batman: Return of the Caped Crusaders (2016) 94% 8.3/10 EDIT “Return of the Caped Crusaders is the Batman '66 sequel fans have been waiting decades to see.” – IGN Movies Oct 20, 2016 Full Review Batman: The Killing Joke (2016) 35% 6.1/10 EDIT “As an adaptation, The Killing Joke succeeds only when it sticks closely to the source material.” – IGN Movies Aug 5, 2016 Full Review
