Shift (2025) EDIT “SHIFT is the kind of film where the absurd makes sense, but its tightrope walk between comedy and thriller eventually leans full into the suspenseful category, with a touch of horror. ” – MovieJawn Jan 26, 2026 Full Review Avatar: Fire and Ash (2025) 66% EDIT “Fire and Ash’s biggest structural flaw, however, is how much of it feels dramatically redundant to its immediate predecessor because of script messiness. ” – MovieJawn Dec 21, 2025 Full Review Superman (2025) 83% 6.0/10 EDIT “Superman is so much about Superman’s earnestness, and it deeply frustrates me that it still undermines moments of drama and emotion with comedy. It is not as dire as the last Thor movie, but it doesn’t always take its own stakes seriously.” – Paste Magazine Jul 8, 2025 Full Review Drive-Away Dolls (2024) 64% 8.0/10 EDIT “Tricia Cooke and Ethan Coen channel their influences and experiences into a tight, satisfying, humorous road movie.” – Paste Magazine Feb 21, 2024 Full Review Lisa Frankenstein (2024) 52% 6.8/10 EDIT “Lisa Frankenstein is a charming curiosity, but falls far short of greatness.” – Paste Magazine Feb 7, 2024 Full Review American Fiction (2023) 93% 7.9/10 EDIT “Comfortably intelligent, occasionally warm and increasingly funny, American Fiction is a movie about artists making do with societal constraints to make art.” – Paste Magazine Dec 13, 2023 Full Review The Iron Claw (2023) 89% 7.6/10 EDIT “The Iron Claw focuses intimately on the Von Erich brothers, painting a tender and forlorn picture of their misfortunes, but it’s hard to call it unflinching. ” – Paste Magazine Dec 12, 2023 Full Review Deep Sea (2023) 88% EDIT “Xiaopeng Tian’s Deep Sea features the most mesmerizing animation since ‘Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse.” – Vague Visages Nov 3, 2023 Full Review Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One (2023) 96% EDIT “The connection between Ethan Hunt (Cruise) and his teammates remains more sincerely sympathetic than the James Bond franchise, more thoroughly articulated than the John Wick series and more tensile than the Fast & Furious films. ” – Vague Visages Jul 6, 2023 Full Review Joy Ride (2023) 90% EDIT “Joy Ride is intended to be a snapshot — if not a comprehensive analysis — of human urges, anxieties and attractions. The balance is thoughtful without being so contemplative that it stops the action, and it’s also not entirely slapdash.” – Vague Visages Jul 3, 2023 Full Review Black Panther: Wakanda Forever (2022) 84% EDIT “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is constrained by its genre and studio from being a great film. It is nonetheless an entertaining one with intriguing characters and intense visuals.” – Vague Visages Jun 14, 2023 Full Review Transformers: Rise of the Beasts (2023) 51% 6.9/10 EDIT “Perhaps being a half-competent crowd-pleaser should not be enough to enter the rarified air of “top two live-action Transformers movies,” and yet here we are.” – Paste Magazine Jun 8, 2023 Full Review You Hurt My Feelings (2023) 94% EDIT “Nicole Holofcener’s 2023 film is witty, grounded and surprisingly uplifting.” – Vague Visages Jun 2, 2023 Full Review Fast X (2023) 56% 6.1/10 EDIT “Your mileage will vary greatly depending on your personal appetite for sequel sludge, but if you’re the sort of person considering watching a Fast & Furious movie, you’re probably the sort of person that will enjoy it.” – Paste Magazine May 17, 2023 Full Review Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 (2023) 82% EDIT “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 makes use of what comes before without being totally bogged down. It’s a working film product, if not a superlatively meaningful work of art.” – Vague Visages May 9, 2023 Full Review Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves (2023) 91% EDIT “In a film world full of geek culture adaptations, Daley and Goldstein’s 2023 adaptation is the functional and rewarding film that Dungeons & Dragons fans have long awaited.” – Vague Visages May 6, 2023 Full Review Beau Is Afraid (2023) 67% EDIT “Beau Is Afraid trips over itself during the climax. The film doesn’t necessarily need to be shorter — it’s just a long and expensive public therapy session with an overcomplicated script. ” – Vague Visages May 6, 2023 Full Review Mister Organ (2022) 95% 8.3/10 EDIT “Mister Organ is a remarkable film: A comedic horror of a documentary, a simple piece of investigative journalism descending into madness, and a spotlight on the human spirit’s capacity for darkness.” – Paste Magazine Nov 3, 2022 Full Review Huesera: The Bone Woman (2022) 97% 7.7/10 EDIT “A thoughtful meditation on choice, love and the anguish of expectation, dressed in the clothing of a clear-eyed, anxious body horror.” – Paste Magazine Nov 1, 2022 Full Review Wendell & Wild (2022) 80% 8.2/10 EDIT “It’s a marvel of artistry and artisanship, with a soundtrack full of Black-fronted rock bands to boot.” – Paste Magazine Oct 27, 2022 Full Review Smile (2022) 80% 7.3/10 EDIT “While genre veterans may effectively point at what and where it borrows, Smile will positively terrify casual fans of horror. It's creepy, dreadful and jumpy.” – Paste Magazine Oct 3, 2022 Full Review Don't Worry Darling (2022) 38% 5.6/10 EDIT “Don’t Worry Darling’s just a middling thriller that doesn’t give its cast enough to do. It would have been more interesting as a literal one-woman show than as a figurative one.” – Paste Magazine Sep 22, 2022 Full Review The Woman King (2022) 94% 7.8/10 EDIT “Viola Davis is the central figure, Lashana Lynch steals the show, and John Boyega struts in director Gina Prince-Bythewood’s homage to African resistance and ‘90s historical epics.” – Paste Magazine Sep 16, 2022 Full Review See How They Run (2022) 75% 6.9/10 EDIT “See How They Run doesn’t claim to be deep or important, it’s just a movie in love with the whodunnit genre, about which it comments frequently but says little of concern.” – Paste Magazine Sep 15, 2022 Full Review Day Shift (2022) 57% 7.0/10 EDIT “If you spent the early 2000s wishing Blade crossed over with Bad Boys or Lethal Weapon, Netflix has got your ticket.” – Paste Magazine Aug 12, 2022 Full Review
