Dead Man's Wire (2025) Prabhjot Bains It’s the mark of a memorable thriller when you’re less invested in the knotty mechanics of its setup than in the intricate interplay of its characters. That quality courses through Gus Van Sant’s propulsive Dead Man’s Wire.

28 Years Later: The Bone Temple (2026) Prabhjot Bains Nia DaCosta’s sequel is a bleak, beautiful, and musically charged ode to our self-destruction.
Posted Jan 16, 2026Edit critic review
Father Mother Sister Brother (2025) Prabhjot Bains Jarmusch crafts a work that draws on the viewer’s own history as much as its characters’, using absence as a storytelling tool—a delicate balancing act few films pull off with such devastating grace.
Posted Jan 08, 2026Edit critic review
Marty Supreme (2025) Prabhjot Bains In the pantheon of iconic movie characters, there’s a sure place reserved for the nervy, sublime Marty Supreme.
Posted Dec 03, 2025Edit critic review
The Running Man (2025) Prabhjot Bains Even if The Running Man unfolds like a softer, less subversive Paul Verhoeven flick, it endures as a reminder of the rougher, rowdier, raunchier joys that used to define the blockbuster landscape.

Die My Love (2025) Prabhjot Bains Though there remains a tighter, focused version of this film, it would defeat the purpose. Ramsay’s film exists in a realm beyond reason and sense, and, by defiantly eschewing logic, earnestly captures the helpless task of navigating the female conundrum.
Posted Nov 09, 2025Edit critic review
Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere (2025) Prabhjot Bains Though stylistically starved, its less-is-more approach uniquely echoes Springsteen’s tortured state of mind in the early 80s, when he famously defied his mainstream momentum and dared to make a record that sounded nothing like his bombastic trademark.
Posted Oct 24, 2025Edit critic review
Roofman (2025) Prabhjot Bains Despite some heavy-handed narration and a missed opportunity to probe the veteran psyche post-9/11, Roofman remains a funny, heartfelt exercise in authenticity—one that, like its loveable thief, steals your heart before you notice.
Posted Oct 24, 2025Edit critic review
The Smashing Machine (2025) Prabhjot Bains For all its warts, it’s hard not to invest this anti-climactic, miserabilist tale of personal redemption.
Posted Oct 03, 2025Edit critic review
One Battle After Another (2025) Prabhjot Bains Spanning a breezy near-three-hour runtime, One Battle After Another erupts as a political powderkeg of an epic—enthralling, hilarious, and steeped in revolutionary verve for a world that desperately needs it.
Posted Sep 24, 2025Edit critic review
Caught Stealing (2025) Prabhjot Bains While far from essential, Caught Stealing thrives as a rollicking, violent throwback—grimy, stylish, and pulsing with enough scuzzy flair to feel right at home on a video-store shelf.
Posted Sep 01, 2025Edit critic review
Splitsville (2025) Prabhjot Bains Blending witty, vulgar banter with painterly visual humour, Covino’s film feels European in sensibility but unabashedly American in spirit.
Posted Aug 29, 2025Edit critic review
Honey Don't! (2025) Prabhjot Bains While there exists a more full-bodied version of Honey Don’t!, where its noirish tale is as interesting as the personalities populating it, it reminds us that no one can capture the quirks and oddities of small-town America quite like a Coen brother.
Posted Aug 22, 2025Edit critic review
F1 The Movie (2025) Prabhjot Bains While aggressively formulaic and built from recycled parts, it feeds off star power and stunning vehicular cinematography to cross the finish line with flair.
Posted Jun 26, 2025Edit critic review
28 Years Later (2025) Prabhjot Bains It cranks up the chaos and turns away from straightforward horror to deliver one of the weirdest, most polarizing studio films in recent memory. Not everything lands, but in today’s risk-averse cinematic landscape, its boldness feels worth celebrating.
Posted Jun 20, 2025Edit critic review
Materialists (2025) Prabhjot Bains The film’s deceptively classic setup—three impossibly gorgeous leads and an NYC backdrop—becomes a canvas for modern reflection. There are no airport chases or teary confrontations, just quiet, searching conversations that breathe.
Posted Jun 13, 2025Edit critic review
The Phoenician Scheme (2025) Prabhjot Bains While it can be construed as a disappointment for some, as Anderson’s lens finally produces some diminishing returns and hints that his well is almost dry, it also reminds us why his work is such a bright spot on an increasingly drab cinematic landscape.
Posted Jun 06, 2025Edit critic review
Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning (2025) Prabhjot Bains The (allegedly) final mission exhausts the franchise’s goodwill and contains some of its greatest moments.
Posted May 23, 2025Edit critic review
Hurry Up Tomorrow (2025) Prabhjot Bains Hurry Up Tomorrow falls so short of its mark that it unearths an alternate, unintended vein of gold, as a gorgeous trainwreck that’s so unhinged and baffling, it has to be seen to be believed.
Posted May 16, 2025Edit critic review
Sinners (2025) Prabhjot Bains Sinners survives the harrowing night as one of the most transgressive major studio releases in recent memory. It not only relishes in its genre’s conventions, but also understands that in America, the real hateful monsters walk among us in the daytime.
Posted Apr 17, 2025Edit critic review
Drop (2025) Prabhjot Bains Armed with a plot that’s as implausible as it is engrossing, Landon’s film not only knows how to meticulously set up the dominoes but also how to make them tumble in style.
Posted Apr 11, 2025Edit critic review
Freaky Tales (2024) Prabhjot Bains While Boden and Fleck’s tribute to a bygone Oakland isn’t as revelatory as its influences, it is earnest and heartfelt enough to make us wish we’d been there to experience it.
Posted Apr 02, 2025Edit critic review
Novocaine (2025) Prabhjot Bains While narrative inconsistencies and contrivances poke bigger holes in the plot than the arrows in Nathan’s battered body, Novocaine is too raucous and lively to let them dampen its sprit.
Posted Mar 13, 2025Edit critic review
Black Bag (2025) Prabhjot Bains Tough questions and even tougher answers coldly slink their way through the subterfuge to unearth what is, oddly, one of the most intensely romantic films of the year so far.
Posted Mar 12, 2025Edit critic review
Mickey 17 (2025) Prabhjot Bains Teetering between light farce and sweeping epic, the chaotic Mickey 17 is structurally messy, tonally jarring, and, at times, heavy-handed to a fault. Still, there’s no denying Joon-ho’s sprawling and immersive vision.
Posted Mar 10, 2025Edit critic review
The Monkey (2025) Prabhjot Bains The Monkey is an experience consistently at odds with itself, eventually losing the precarious edge that made it so arresting. While Perkins’ film is half-great, it’s a half that needs to be seen to be believed.
Posted Feb 20, 2025Edit critic review
Companion (2025) Prabhjot Bains While Hancock’s film never pushes the envelope of its sub-genre—operating a cut below influences like Blade Runner, Ex Machina, Her, and Terminator—its campy satire is sharp enough to leave an impact.
Posted Jan 31, 2025Edit critic review
Wolf Man (2025) Prabhjot Bains Leigh Whannell’s monster flick takes the werewolf mythos to new, introspective places, but musters an incomplete transformation.
Posted Jan 17, 2025Edit critic review
Nosferatu (2024) Prabhjot Bains Robert Eggers’ bigger and bolder reimagining may not be the definitive iteration, but it offers the most enveloping.
Posted Jan 07, 2025Edit critic review
A Complete Unknown (2024) Prabhjot Bains For a figure defined by his wry, unconventional swings, Mangold’s film firmly goes with the grain, unfolding as a by-the-numbers musical biopic that still manages to be a hit.
Posted Dec 31, 2024Edit critic review
September 5 (2024) Prabhjot Bains While the film’s apolitical stance can be rightfully construed as the type of safe choice the ABC crew tirelessly avoided to capture the crisis, it doesn’t render September 5 any less riveting or illuminating.
Posted Dec 17, 2024Edit critic review
Beatles '64 (2024) Prabhjot Bains Featuring intimate, never-before-seen footage shot at the time by pioneering documentarians, Albert and David Maysles, Beatles ‘64 manifests as a rousing cross between an easygoing hangout movie and an illuminating cultural portrait.
Posted Nov 30, 2024Edit critic review
A Real Pain (2024) Prabhjot Bains A Real Pain masterfully and delicately reconciles that classic sense of pain with our modern malaise, beautifully rambling its way through heartfelt observations on the legacy and validity of pain.
Posted Nov 08, 2024Edit critic review
The Substance (2024) Prabhjot Bains Bursting with kaleidoscopic detail and overflowing with gnarly, cringe-inducing “WTF” moments, The Substance is not a cult classic in the making but one already made.
Posted Oct 30, 2024Edit critic review
Fanatical: The Catfishing of Tegan and Sara (2024) Prabhjot Bains It stands as a startling showcase for how the terminally online world has transformed fame and fandom in irrevocable ways. But it may have been a more damning one, had it not pulled the trigger on its fascinating story a tad too early.
Posted Oct 17, 2024Edit critic review
We Live in Time (2024) Prabhjot Bains At its best, We Live in Time evokes a weepy page-turner, and at its worst, feels like a glorified Hallmark movie.
Posted Oct 16, 2024Edit critic review
Joker: Folie à Deux (2024) Prabhjot Bains From the Looney Tunes-inspired opening to each musical number to its French titling, almost every component of Philips’ sequel feels superfluous and tangential—all incongruous parts of a film that inherently struggles to justify its existence.
Posted Oct 04, 2024Edit critic review
A Different Man (2024) Prabhjot Bains Shimberg’s body-horror inversion breaks new ground for filmic representation, with its odd story of physical transformation boldly subverting Hollywood’s typical depiction and treatment of people with facial differences.
Posted Sep 25, 2024Edit critic review
Alien: Romulus (2024) Prabhjot Bains While Alien: Romulus is the best franchise entry since Aliens, it isn’t anything to write home about. Nonetheless, it’s the most entertaining and enthralling the middle-of-the-road can get.
Posted Aug 16, 2024Edit critic review
Sing Sing (2023) Prabhjot Bains As powerful a treatise on the correctional system as it is on the nature of performance.
Posted Aug 08, 2024Edit critic review
Fly Me to the Moon (2024) Prabhjot Bains It’s clear Fly Me to the Moon relies on star power to keep it in orbit but sparkling chemistry can only go so far before its nuts and bolts come undone.
Posted Jul 14, 2024Edit critic review
A Quiet Place: Day One (2024) Prabhjot Bains It’s the rare prequel that defends its existence with earned emotion, offering us something to explore in between its moments of dread and suspense.
Posted Jun 28, 2024Edit critic review
Kinds of Kindness (2024) Prabhjot Bains This tri-pronged anthology goes to grotesque lengths to communicate simple ideas, transforming them into something not only profound but oddly human.
Posted Jun 21, 2024Edit critic review
The Beach Boys (2024) Prabhjot Bains Though not a definitive account of “America’s Band,” the Disney+ doc dishes up great insight into their creative process.
Posted May 25, 2024Edit critic review
Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga (2024) Prabhjot Bains Miller imbues Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga with a guttural, exhilarating power. His prequel is his most pure and primal expression of cinema: he distills it down to its very essence and injects it into our veins at high-octane speeds.
Posted May 23, 2024Edit critic review
I Saw the TV Glow (2024) Prabhjot Bains It’s an experience that’s as stylistically bold as it is emotionally introspective, mining profound truths about how we consume media, how our relationships with it change over time, and how much of who we are is intrinsically tied to it.
Posted May 20, 2024Edit critic review
Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes (2024) Prabhjot Bains Kingdom cements itself as a strong continuation of Caesar’s trilogy, tapping into what makes the series so moving, rich in character, and ultimately, timeless.
Posted May 08, 2024Edit critic review
The Fall Guy (2024) Prabhjot Bains David Leitch’s bonkers, self-referential actioner is a fun, albeit flawed, celebration of cinema.
Posted May 02, 2024Edit critic review
Challengers (2024) Prabhjot Bains Armed with a sweltering love triangle for the ages, Challengers repeatedly places the audience on a knife’s edge of sexual tension and cutthroat gamesmanship, forcing us to teeter on the half-court net until it explodes with pure, intoxicating catharsis.
