David (2025) 76% 4/5 EDIT “Mixing humor with animals who have their own skills, to having courage with a capital “C” gives “David” a high rating.” – Phantom Tollbooth Jan 6, 2026 Full Review Rental Family (2025) 87% 4/5 EDIT “The real center of ‘Rental Family” is Brendan Fraser who, with a gentle touch and smile, wends his way through the assignments given him and brings warmth to the characters in the film and to the audience.” – Phantom Tollbooth Dec 24, 2025 Full Review Vindication Swim (2024) 4/5 EDIT “All in all, “Vindication Swim” is remarkable in showing endurance, fortitude, and friends that are.” – Phantom Tollbooth Dec 11, 2025 Full Review Good Boy (2025) 90% 4/5 EDIT “Good Boy tells a story through eyes and physical action, including tails and paws. ” – Phantom Tollbooth Dec 1, 2025 Full Review Boxcutter (2024) 100% 3/5 EDIT “The music is top notch and Cinematographer James Klopko brings Toronto alive. It can be a city of many things, but the main idea here is hope.” – Phantom Tollbooth Nov 14, 2025 Full Review The French Italian (2024) 67% 3/5 EDIT “The French Italian ends up being a humorous look into apartment living, what one has to put up with and how not caring about other neighbors can lead to situations.” – Phantom Tollbooth Nov 12, 2025 Full Review Dead of Winter (2025) 75% 3/5 EDIT “The unexpected is just around the corner and the actors, though in a cold and icy environment, do a superb job. Acting plus scenery plus music equals an unexpected thriller.” – Phantom Tollbooth Oct 28, 2025 Full Review Roofman (2025) 87% 3/5 EDIT “Channing Tatum makes the most of it, whether by himself, or with Dinklage, they are quite the duo. ” – Phantom Tollbooth Oct 13, 2025 Full Review My Sunshine (2024) 88% 4/5 EDIT “A story of growing up within the spotlight of sports and what decisions must be made.” – Phantom Tollbooth Sep 24, 2025 Full Review Sketch (2024) 95% 4/5 EDIT “Sketch is a kind of science fiction with a heart, even though the heart may have mischief and be as tall as a building.” – Phantom Tollbooth Sep 9, 2025 Full Review Jurassic World Rebirth (2025) 50% 3/5 EDIT “So, in the final count this is a good-enough prehistoric-meets-modern day to keep the box office happy and acting is fine. ” – Phantom Tollbooth Aug 14, 2025 Full Review Heads of State (2025) 68% 3/5 EDIT “Heads of State is a rather tongue-in-cheek action comedy combining a champion wrestler who is also an actor, and a Handsomest Man contest winner who is a major film star. ” – Phantom Tollbooth Aug 6, 2025 Full Review Sally (2025) 88% 4/5 EDIT “In this documentary, partly narrated by Tam O’Shaughnessy, the life of Sally Ride is open to the public.” – Phantom Tollbooth Jul 23, 2025 Full Review How to Train Your Dragon (2025) 77% 4/5 EDIT “The actors do their parts well and blend in as either anxious adults or growing-up-too-fast teenagers. ” – Phantom Tollbooth Jul 14, 2025 Full Review Friendship (2024) 88% 2/5 EDIT “This is a wild ride that slowly coasts to a halt.” – Phantom Tollbooth Jun 27, 2025 Full Review The Last Rodeo (2025) 69% EDIT “Having faith in what one is doing is the center of this film. This tugs at the heart strings. ” – Phantom Tollbooth Jun 16, 2025 Full Review Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning (2025) 80% 4/5 EDIT “From beginning to end, “Mission Impossible – The Final Reckoning” is on full charge. ” – Phantom Tollbooth May 29, 2025 Full Review Clown in a Cornfield (2025) 74% 3/5 EDIT “All in all, “Clown in the Cornfield” is reminiscent of television’s “Buffy” in that the unusual is considered normal and the audience never knows what to expect. ” – Phantom Tollbooth May 21, 2025 Full Review The Accountant 2 (2025) 75% 3/5 EDIT “Watching Affleck and Bernthal work together is like a hamburger and fries. Two separate entities, but they go together. ” – Phantom Tollbooth May 6, 2025 Full Review The Friend (2024) 84% 4/5 EDIT “The dog is really the heart of the film, and Naomi Watts and Apollo blend into an acting team. ” – Phantom Tollbooth Apr 24, 2025 Full Review A Working Man (2025) 47% 3/5 EDIT ““A Working Man” pulls together better than the usual snatch-and-grab-for-ransom films. ” – Phantom Tollbooth Apr 14, 2025 Full Review Kung Fu Rookie (2024) 3/5 EDIT “So, martial arts fans, here is the film for you--- a first-rate action film from Kazakhstan.” – Phantom Tollbooth Apr 7, 2025 Full Review Rule Breakers (2025) 81% 3/5 EDIT “It takes courage and stamina to reach your goal, but it is worth it. What obstacles confronted the women of Afghanistan in achieving their goals is still going on. Progress is slow, but it is happening.” – Phantom Tollbooth Mar 25, 2025 Full Review Old Guy (2024) 26% 2/5 EDIT “As far as acting is concerned, Christoph Waltz is better than the dialogue but not given an opportunity to really bring it forth. ” – Phantom Tollbooth Mar 13, 2025 Full Review Paddington in Peru (2024) 93% 4/5 EDIT “You are in a comfort zone and it is only you and the bear with a generous smile. Enjoy.” – Phantom Tollbooth Mar 4, 2025 Full Review
