After the Hunt (2025) Emily Wheeler When After the Hunt focuses on Alma, letting her placid exterior drive viewers up the wall trying to figure her out, the film crackles. Unfortunately, a whole other weighty, fraught film plays out around these moments, setting the whole thing adrift.

Posted Oct 13, 2025  Edit critic review
The Conjuring: Last Rites (2025) Emily Wheeler What we’re left with is a shell of itself, but as long as Wilson and Farmiga are there to navigate what’s left, the Conjuring movies will always bring just enough to be worthwhile.

Posted Sep 21, 2025  Edit critic review
Went Up the Hill (2024) Emily Wheeler The two characters are in no hurry to get past these events, but Krieps and Montogomery's excellent performances make the plodding into an affecting dirge.
Posted Sep 06, 2025  Edit critic review
Weapons (2025) Emily Wheeler Cregger moves between several key figures in the community, winding through a tale that is riveting, hilarious, and unsettling throughout.
Posted Aug 10, 2025  Edit critic review
The Fantastic Four: First Steps (2025) Emily Wheeler This is supposed to introduce us to the Fantastic Four as part of the MCU, but it’s more apt to leave them forgotten in the expansive universe.
Posted Jul 26, 2025  Edit critic review
Sinners (2025) Emily Wheeler It’s weighty, smart, and downright creepy, and ultimately it gives you what the characters assembled at the juke joint are in search of: a good time.
Posted Jul 14, 2025  Edit critic review
Close to You (2023) Emily Wheeler Structurally and stylistically it’s not very good, and yet it still manages to get across some hard truths.

Posted Dec 29, 2024  Edit critic review

Posted Nov 23, 2024  Edit critic review

Posted Sep 29, 2024  Edit critic review
It Ends With Us (2024) Emily Wheeler It Ends with Us offers both fun and a point, and while the blend isn’t smooth, it’s admirably ambitious.
Posted Aug 10, 2024  Edit critic review
Trap (2024) Emily Wheeler It trudges along respectfully.
Posted Aug 05, 2024  Edit critic review
Longlegs (2024) Emily Wheeler Longlegs is not a mystery. It’s a mood piece rooted deep in the horrors of homes that never are home.
Posted Jul 13, 2024  Edit critic review
Kinds of Kindness (2024) Emily Wheeler Kinds of Kindness is most effective at sorting out the strengths and weaknesses of Lanthimos’ approach.
Posted Jul 06, 2024  Edit critic review
Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga (2024) Emily Wheeler Furiosa tries very hard. It revs its engines and unloads a frenzy of off-kilter action, but it’s all in service of a story we’ve seen before.
Posted Jul 02, 2024  Edit critic review
The Fall Guy (2024) Emily Wheeler The Fall Guy won’t be changing the industry, but it does make for a very good time at the movies.

Posted Apr 01, 2024  Edit critic review

Posted Mar 24, 2024  Edit critic review
Love Lies Bleeding (2024) Emily Wheeler Glass always has a sucker punch lying in wait, one that will make you swallow your tongue for thinking anything about this tale as old as time is fun.
Posted Mar 17, 2024  Edit critic review
Chupacabra vs. the Alamo (2013) Emily Wheeler The fun of Syfy Original Movies are their Mad Max-style plows into derangement, and Chupacabra vs. the Alamo doesn’t plow nearly far enough.
Posted Feb 20, 2024  Edit critic review
Madame Web (2024) Emily Wheeler Madame Web is just bad. Tantalizing close to fun-bad, but just barely straightforward enough to miss the mark.
Posted Feb 17, 2024  Edit critic review
Argylle (2024) Emily Wheeler All that money and all those stars only add up to a mildly entertaining romp.
Posted Feb 03, 2024  Edit critic review

Posted Jan 06, 2024  Edit critic review

Posted Nov 25, 2023  Edit critic review
May December (2023) Emily Wheeler May December is a trick of a movie, and it doesn’t hide it.
Posted Nov 20, 2023  Edit critic review

Posted Oct 31, 2023  Edit critic review
