The Drama (2026) 75% EDIT “The Drama doesn't lack ambition. It uses an extreme example to pose interesting questions about relationships, but winds up being a dispiriting collection of hits, misses, and questionable choices.” – Denerstein Unleashed Apr 7, 2026 Full Review Fantasy Life (2025) 80% EDIT “Shear operates on a human scale, but Fantasy Life can seem a bit edgeless, and Sam’s mental issues --he's Jewish but antisemitic phrases pop intrusively into his head -- feel under-explored. ” – Denerstein Unleashed Apr 2, 2026 Full Review The AI Doc: Or How I Became an Apocaloptimist (2026) 88% EDIT “Great at generating concern, AI: The Doc functions more as a one -hour and 44-minute skim of the topic rather than the deepest of dives. ” – Denerstein Unleashed Mar 25, 2026 Full Review Marc by Sofia (2025) 72% EDIT “The movie can be amusing, although it seems directed at those who already know that Jacobs is a major designer whose work has proven influential. ” – Denerstein Unleashed Mar 25, 2026 Full Review A Magnificent Life (2025) 63% EDIT “Chomet's animation creates an absorbing world that brings its own rewards, but the movie does as much telling as showing, and in the end, makes a better showcase for Chomet's talent than for Pagnol's significance as an artist. ” – Denerstein Unleashed Mar 25, 2026 Full Review Project Hail Mary (2026) 94% EDIT “ Entertaining and involving -- if overly long at 156 minutes -- Project Hail Mary occasionally struck me as silly. ” – Denerstein Unleashed Mar 23, 2026 Full Review Ready or Not 2: Here I Come (2026) 74% EDIT “One could slice and dice further, but as second helpings go, Here I Come proves a reliably amusing bloodbath, particularly for those who like their violent mayhem served with stinging comic twists.” – Denerstein Unleashed Mar 18, 2026 Full Review Reminders of Him (2026) 56% EDIT “All drama hinges on some sort of contrivance; in Reminders of Him, they're awfully transparent. ” – Denerstein Unleashed Mar 12, 2026 Full Review undertone (2025) 73% EDIT “When it's all said and done, though, the movie doesn't dig deeply enough into what increasingly seems like an accumulation of familiar genre tropes.” – Denerstein Unleashed Mar 12, 2026 Full Review Waiting for Guffman (1996) 91% 3.5/4 EDIT “A very funny mock documentary...” – Denver Rocky Mountain News Mar 11, 2026 Full Review RoboCop 2 (1990) 31% EDIT “The excessive violence of "RoboCop 2" is less troubling than the fact that the final chorus of mayhem has no suspenseful rhythm.” – Denver Rocky Mountain News Mar 10, 2026 Full Review Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man (2026) 90% EDIT “When a graying Tommy rides into Small Heath on a black horse, the movie offers a mix of nostalgia and stirring imager... Sure we've seen it before, but this, after all, is Tommy Shelby.” – Denerstein Unleashed Mar 9, 2026 Full Review THE BRIDE! (2026) 57% EDIT “Eclectic to the max, The Bride! practically drowns itself in movie love as it tries to match Buckley's expressions of unrestrained wildness.” – Denerstein Unleashed Mar 5, 2026 Full Review Hoppers (2026) 94% EDIT “Toward the end, the movie probably overindulges its action inclinations, but not enough to spoil a mostly enjoyable hunk of animation. ” – Denerstein Unleashed Mar 5, 2026 Full Review Jimpa (2025) 53% EDIT “Gently assembled, Jimpa tackles difficult issues and avoids drawing harsh lines in the sand, but it never finds a solid core around which the confusion of its characters can swirl. ” – Denerstein Unleashed Mar 3, 2026 Full Review The President's Cake (2025) 99% EDIT “The President’s Cake reveals the harsh realities of a society in which scarcity and cruelty have been normalized. ” – Denerstein Unleashed Feb 26, 2026 Full Review A Poet (2025) 100% EDIT “Soto's small-scale realism suits material about someone whose life can't, and probably never will, match the way he sees himself, but it lands gently enough to be touching. ” – Denerstein Unleashed Feb 20, 2026 Full Review How to Make a Killing (2026) 44% EDIT “Loosely inspired by the 1949 Ealing comedy classic Kind Hearts and Coronets, How to Make a Killing needed more bite, satirical sting, and genuine shock. ” – Denerstein Unleashed Feb 19, 2026 Full Review Pillion (2025) 99% EDIT “Yes, there’s humor here, and yes, the performances are well-adapted to the material, but I don’t know how much can be gained from its collection of abuse and degradation, even if the movie's characters are eager to immerse themselves in it.” – Denerstein Unleashed Feb 19, 2026 Full Review Crime 101 (2026) 89% EDIT “You may find plot holes along the way,...and its LA gloss can feel vaguely familiar. But Layton's screenplay teases us with a nice collection of conflicting rooting interests, and its characters are interesting enough to keep Crime 101 on track.” – Denerstein Unleashed Feb 12, 2026 Full Review Wuthering Heights (2026) 58% EDIT “I admired the audaciousness of Fennell’s previous work (Promising Young Woman and Saltburn) but found her Wuthering Heights to be a sometimes silly attempt at giving a 19th-century novel some contemporary spin. ” – Denerstein Unleashed Feb 12, 2026 Full Review Dracula (2025) 53% EDIT “I chuckled at some of Besson's conceits and at the richly garnished melodrama he presents, treating Dracula's story as a journey toward an exalted expression of sacrificial love. Romanticism or schmaltz? Maybe both.” – Denerstein Unleashed Feb 5, 2026 Full Review The Moment (2026) 67% EDIT “The Moment benefits from Charli's wild-child presence, but the movie's mockumentary, fly-on-the-wall approach can feel a bit old hat, and I would have appreciated a deeper dive into her music.” – Denerstein Unleashed Feb 4, 2026 Full Review Melania (2026) 10% EDIT “By any critical standards I’m familiar with, I’ll tell you that Melania isn’t much of a documentary; it's more like a plush Life Styles of the Rich and Famous episode that bleeds into a chorus of booming triumphalism centering on Trump’s inauguration.” – Denerstein Unleashed Feb 3, 2026 Full Review Send Help (2026) 93% EDIT “I found it hard not to laugh at a scene involving projectile vomiting. But Raimi smartly wraps the story in a glossy, mainstream package that can be inviting, even reassuring. ” – Denerstein Unleashed Jan 31, 2026 Full Review
