4.5/5
28 Years Later: The Bone Temple (2026) Chris Sawin 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple easily shatters conceptions about films being dumped in theaters in January. Filled with meaningful performances that catapult an already engrossing story, the 28 Days Later franchise is more promising than it’s ever been.

TRON: Ares (2025) Joshua Tyler Ares looks like a boring pile of nothing on screen, and the soundtrack by Nine Inch Nails sounds like it’s made up entirely of electronic fart noises played in various tones.

4.5/5
Tales From the Hood (1995) Drew Dietsch Tales from the Hood is one of the best horror flicks of the 1990s and a true champion in the subgenre of anthology horror.

3.5/5
Highest 2 Lowest (2025) Drew Dietsch Highest 2 Lowest is a worthwhile riff on a tried-and-true story that reminds me why I’m always interested in whatever Spike Lee is doing.

4.5/5
The Long Walk (2025) Drew Dietsch There is no denying that The Long Walk is one of the best movies of the year that many people will not want to see. That’s why it’s so vital that it is seen.

4/5
Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Infinity Castle (2025) Joshua Tyler Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle adheres rigidly to the previously established anime format. That’s both a strength and a weakness.

1/5
Distant (2023) Joshua Tyler Long Distance takes all the hysterical, delusional narcissism of the past five years and distills it down to two characters trapped on an alien planet.

3/5
Together (2025) Drew Dietsch A solid first feature that shows real promise from a director, and it will probably enrapture twisted viewers who haven’t been exposed to so many stories like this.

The Naked Gun (2025) Drew Dietsch The Naked Gun is must-see mirth and one of 2025’s knockout good times.

The Toxic Avenger (2023) Drew Dietsch This is exactly the Toxie our kids need these days. Show it to your children and have them grow up to be good-hearted people who just want to help.

2/5
I Know What You Did Last Summer (2025) Drew Dietsch I Know What You Did Last Summer is a mediocre but properly paced little mystery with something more creative lurking under the surface.

3.5/5
Nobody 2 (2025) Joshua Tyler A throwback to the days of gonzo action movies like Crank and Shoot ‘Em Up, the kind of movie where it doesn’t care how silly things get as long as someone’s head is blown off.

Red Sonja (2025) Drew Dietsch Red Sonja is a welcome return to the fantasy adventures of yesteryear.

1.5/5
Jurassic World Rebirth (2025) Drew Dietsch Calling this Rebirth is extremely wrongheaded as this feels more like Jurassic World: Reheated Leftovers.

4/5
Weapons (2025) Drew Dietsch What’s great is that Cregger isn’t some moralist shouting his message from a cinematic pulpit. He’s able to weave all this into a story that is creepy and compelling all on its own without you needing to see what the movie is Saying™ at every turn.

4/5
The Naked Gun (2025) Joshua Tyler The Naked Gun is one hell of a joke. It’s the funniest movie of the decade. Go have a laugh.

War of the Worlds (2025) Joshua Tyler It’s noteworthy because of all the attempts to adapt this story, this is the worst one.
Posted Aug 02, 2025  Edit critic review
4/5
The Bad Guys 2 (2025) Joshua Tyler Bad Guys 2 is better than the first Bad Guys in nearly every way. It’s a wild animated adventure with its own sense of style and nonstop momentum set to one of the best motion picture soundtracks of the year.

The Phoenician Scheme (2025) Drew Dietsch I’m happy to report that The Phoenician Scheme is a solid uptick for Anderson’s feature filmography.

4/5
28 Years Later (2025) Drew Dietsch 28 Years Later is often jaw-dropping to look at, it’s got a strong commitment to its thematic and emotional core, and it more than satisfies the base pleasures of its genre.

The Life of Chuck (2024) Drew Dietsch One of the best movies of the year and an essential watch for Constant Readers.

Monster Island (2024) Drew Dietsch Monster Island might get accused of being bare bones by other critics, but I prefer to see it as a “meat and potatoes”

A Minecraft Movie (2025) Joshua Tyler There’s a version of A Minecraft Movie that could’ve been brilliant.

4/5
The Fantastic Four: First Steps (2025) Joshua Tyler This Fantastic Four is better than any previous attempt. The cast is superior in every way and the plot is better constructed.

Happy Gilmore 2 (2025) Drew Dietsch I didn’t expect much out of Happy Gilmore 2 and it provided precisely that.

5/5
Dangerous Animals (2025) Drew Dietsch Dangerous Animals has a committed cast, knockout direction, a stellar script, it looks gorgeous, the edit is the tightest I’ve seen from any movie this year, and it’s a ripper of a flick.

4/5
The Shrouds (2024) Drew Dietsch ...as a metaphor for David Cronenberg saying, “I’m not done making movies, even if that scares me,” The Shrouds is wrapped in all the things that make him one of our greatest filmmakers.

Superman (2025) Drew Dietsch Superman has an actual voice behind it instead of a visionless, corporate committee stamp of approval.

Horror Noire: A History of Black Horror (2019) Drew Dietsch Horror Noire: A History of Black Horror is still a necessary project that adds so much to our understanding of film’s place in American culture.

Star Trek: Section 31 (2025) Joshua Tyler Is it possible for a movie to be evil? This one is, and if Paramount has any sense of shame or decency, it will now shutter the entire company and auction off its assets to the lowest bidder.

Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga (2024) Joshua Tyler Chris Hemsworth is brilliant but Anya Taylor-Joy may have killed the Mad Max franchise.

Rebel Moon: Part Two - The Scargiver (2024) Joshua Tyler It’s as if Zack Snyder found B-roll from Weird Al’s Amish Paradise video in a dusty old 90s archive and decided it was a perfect fit for his new sci-fi movie.

Ricky Stanicky (2024) Joshua Tyler Ricky Stanicky is about as good as modern comedy is allowed to be.

Spaceman (2024) Joshua Tyler Spaceman is the story of the eternal and neverending war between introverts and extroverts. And as it always is in real life, eventually, the introvert must lose.

Turning Red (2022) Drew Dietsch Turning Red will make some folks uncomfortable with its themes and its turned-up-to-11 energy, but its a worthwhile addition to the Pixar canon and a good treat for anyone who is still young at heart.

The Batman (2022) Drew Dietsch Somehow, through dark magic and incredible craftsmanship, The Batman has managed to bring some truly fresh and invigorating elements to the franchise that are sorely needed.

4.5/5
The Matrix Resurrections (2021) Drew Dietsch Wild, complex, energetic, heartfelt, thrilling, meditative, and utterly assured in itself. So, it's another Matrix movie.

2.5/5
Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021) Drew Dietsch Spider-Man: No Way Home feels like the worst kind of comic book storytelling: it only exists to heap fan-service upon the viewer and create a new foundation to build upon.
Posted Dec 16, 2021  Edit critic review
1.5/5
Halloween Kills (2021) Drew Dietsch There is no doubt that Halloween Kills is in contention for the worst major studio release of the year, certainly when it comes to horror.

3/5
Cry Macho (2021) Drew Dietsch It's very possible we'll see Eastwood in a starring role after this, but if we didn't, Cry Macho is a fond enough farewell to a Hollywood titan.

5/5
The Suicide Squad (2021) Drew Dietsch The Suicide Squad is the best DC movie in decades. A high watermark for comic book cinema and blockbusters in general. Hilarious, horrifying, and heartfelt in equal measure.

1.5/5
Jungle Cruise (2021) Drew Dietsch Jungle Cruise is as airy and inert as the static mannequins that fill the actual theme park attraction.

Black Widow (2021) Drew Dietsch [Black Widow is] not the worst Marvel Cinematic Universe movie, but it is easily one of the blandest.

The Tomorrow War (2021) Drew Dietsch The Tomorrow War has big "lazy Sunday movie on TNT" energy and that is not a compliment.

Mortal Kombat (2021) Drew Dietsch A decent if forgettable experience that will likely sate the fans looking for the franchise's signature gore and fantasy violence.

Zack Snyder's Justice League (2021) Drew Dietsch Zack Snyder's Justice League is unquestionably a well-crafted movie... and is vastly superior to its maligned theatrical version.

Outside the Wire (2021) Drew Dietsch Outside the Wire has the overall feel of a lazy Sunday afternoon cable movie that your dad would have probably liked.

Wonder Woman 1984 (2020) Drew Dietsch Wonder Woman 1984 recalls the kind of warm but welcomingly hokey nature of Sam Raimi's Spider-Man films when they were at their best.
