4/5
The Christophers (2025) Stefan Pape The Christophers is a compelling, intimate film, closer in feel to a stage play than a thriller, anchored by two remarkable performances from McKellen and Coel.

The Truth and Tragedy of Moriah Wilson (2026) Jennifer Green This is an emotional recreation of the loss and investigation into the murder of a beloved young woman with a promising cycling career.

2/5
Eat Pray Bark (2026) Barbara Shulgasser This film is a curiosity and might disappoint kids assuming the movie is about cute furry friends. Most dog-related movies at least have adorable dogs to focus on. Here, the animals are secondary to a bunch of mostly unpleasant and neurotic humans.

4/5
Pizza Movie (2026) Jennifer Green This is a druggy college comedy for older teens and adults that hits just the right notes of goofy ridiculousness without falling into the same old Gen Z stereotypes.

Sirāt (2025) Jennifer Green This tragic, strange, beautifully-filmed, hypnotic movie is both hard to watch and tough to take your eyes off.

3/5
Love, Ted Bundy (2026) Christie Cronan Edna Martin's untold story in Love, Ted Bundy is a sympathetic attempt to seek justice and healing on an initially pure premise, but is unfortunately cheapened by the obvious money grab.

2/5
The Red Line (2026) Jose Solís Uneven and overlong, this thriller keeps circling stronger ideas than the ones it actually develops.

1/5
If I Can't Have You (2023) Barbara Shulgasser The plot clearly has not been worked out. A murder is committed with no plausible explanation for why. A man stalks a woman with no plausible explanation for why. The characters generally behave like unsupervised 11-year-olds.

3/5
The Land of Sometimes (2025) Christie Cronan With animation as beautiful and as colorful as the British accents, The Land of Sometimes offers whimsy, catchy songs, and plenty to keep its target audience entertained.

Caterpillar (2023) Christie Cronan Revealing so much more than the dangers of eye color cosmetic surgery, this film exposes our blindness to real transformation and healing.

3/5
The Super Mario Galaxy Movie (2026) Tara McNamara This hectic sibling sequel offers family fun and fan service. But there's nothing particularly memorable about The Super Mario Galaxy Movie—except that, like a power-up block, it sets up the next level in the film franchise it's still building.

5/5
The Drama (2026) Tara McNamara The Drama is a rare film that makes you laugh, gasp, and rethink the way we treat each other—and it lingers in a way that just might last a lifetime.

3/5
Hannah Montana 20th Anniversary Special (2026) Fernanda Camargo Fans of the series will enjoy both the celebration of the past and the acknowledgement of how we got here, "mixing it all together" in a way only Hannah Montana could.

3/5
Alpha (2025) Tom Cassidy This French body-horror drama quietly conjures an atmosphere of dread and anxiety, rooted in virus paranoia and substance addiction.
Posted Mar 31, 2026  Edit critic review
3/5
Holy Days (2026) Kat Halstead There's nothing that particularly sets Holy Days apart from similar films, but it's a warm, enjoyable romp with likable characters and an impish spirit.
Posted Mar 31, 2026  Edit critic review
2/5
Bone Keeper (2026) Kat Halstead At times this horror film feels like a pastiche of the genre, but isn't particularly funny or openly self-referential.
Posted Mar 31, 2026  Edit critic review
1/5
Dhurandhar: The Revenge (2026) Sakhi Thirani Much like the first film, Aditya Dhar's action sequel is a montage of gore and violence, guns and grenades.
Posted Mar 31, 2026  Edit critic review
4/5
The Rise of the Red Hot Chili Peppers: Our Brother, Hillel (2026) Jennifer Green This is a sensitive piece of filmmaking with insights into the band's origins as well as how its members today, once head-banging punk rockers, now feel about their lives and legacies.
Posted Mar 31, 2026  Edit critic review
3/5
BTS: THE RETURN (2026) Jennifer Green Not much new is gleaned about the band members, and scenes of them hanging out, sharing meals, talking about what fame means to them, and writing songs don't offer much to appeal to non-fans.

3/5
53 Sundays (2026) Jennifer Green In an era where films looking for an international audience are increasingly less nuanced and more heavily action-oriented, Spanish director Cesc Gay moves in a completely different direction.
Posted Mar 31, 2026  Edit critic review
2/5
Extinction: Animals Unite! (2023) Christie Cronan This animated film had good intentions to show the importance of animal conservation, but a weak plot and lack of direction weaken its promise.

2/5
Past Life (2025) Jose Solís Mediocre and oddly empty, this thriller teases a depth it never delivers.

4/5
Our Hero, Balthazar (2025) Tara McNamara Our Hero, Balthazar is incredibly impressive and yet, so twisted that you almost have to hope that no one sees it.

Forbidden Fruits (2026) Tara McNamara This dark horror comedy is vapidly delicious.
Posted Mar 31, 2026  Edit critic review
2/5
Home Delivery (2025) Tara McNamara Home Delivery is just another ughhh example from a filmmaker whose previous projects are all curiously horny stories about female characters in various states of reproduction.
Posted Mar 31, 2026  Edit critic review
2/5
Fantasy Life (2025) Tara McNamara It's a strong effort toward normalizing mental health disorders, but Matthew Shear's dramedy is likely to leave viewers feeling anxious.
Posted Mar 31, 2026  Edit critic review
3/5
They Will Kill You (2026) Jeffrey M. Anderson This kind of non-stop, endless-fighting action movie has become increasingly common in a post-John Wick world, but Beetz brings fresh blood to the genre, as does the movie's funny, fantastical story.
Posted Mar 27, 2026  Edit critic review
4/5
The Optimist: The Bravest Act Is Truth (2023) Jeffrey M. Anderson This Holocaust drama based on a true story doesn't shy away from tough imagery, but the focus is on healing and communication, with two exceptional performances.
Posted Mar 27, 2026  Edit critic review
4/5
undertone (2025) Jeffrey M. Anderson This unique horror movie relies largely on clever sound design and a limited setting, but it still conjures up a world of sympathetic characters, a strong story, and spine-chilling scares.

4/5
BTS THE COMEBACK LIVE | ARIRANG (2026) Weiting Liu This captivating performance marks a historic moment not just for the iconic boy band, but for K-pop as a global force that continues to dominate in concert sales and cultural clout.

2/5
Unspeakable Sins (2025) Weiting Liu This messy psychological drama aims for glossy erotica but ultimately collapses under the weight of its own excess.

4/5
Game Changer (2025) Jenny Nixon The shifting roster of contestants is, by and large, made up of funny, likable people—and to the show's credit, they're not all straight, White stand-up comedians.

4/5
Pretty Lethal (2026) Kat Halstead Pretty Lethal finds the right combination of bloody violence and sheer silliness that will appeal to fans of the genre and those looking for 90 minutes of joyful chaos.

4/5
Mr. Nobody Against Putin (2025) Tom Cassidy Winner of the Best Documentary Feature Oscar at the 2026 Academy Awards, this film is a sharp warning about what happens when governments rewrite history, deny truths, and punish independent thought.

Meal Ticket (2026) Jennifer Green This is a niche documentary, but of course basketball's many fans will fill that niche easily.

Sleepwalkers (1992) Jose Solís Wildly campy and often ridiculous, this horror oddity plays less like a scary movie and more like a grotesque cult curiosity.

4/5
The Plastic Detox (2026) Jennifer Green Informative, humanizing, and at moments downright scary, this eye-opening documentary is sure to make waves.

3/5
Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice (2026) Jennifer Green This is a violent gangster film wrapped up in a humorous concept package and built around the charm of its lead actors, Vaughn and Marsden (and the lesser known but equally charismatic González).

2/5
Made in Korea (2026) Barbara Shulgasser This movie is actually a bunch of different movies—some good, some not so good—an amalgam of precariously glued-together variations on familiar cliches.

It's Dorothy! (2025) Christie Cronan A whimsical examination of a beloved character, this film embodies hope with a nostalgic walk down the yellow brick road and over the rainbow.

Preschool (2026) Jennifer Green The cast and premise here are funny, but the humor doesn't keep at a consistent enough level to make this film a real winner.

2/5
Ready or Not 2: Here I Come (2026) Joyce Slaton The original film was a sleeper hit in 2019 that scored with its fresh blend of bloody gore and absurd humor, but this sequel amps up the former and minimizes the latter, diminishing the impact.
Posted Mar 25, 2026  Edit critic review
2/5
The Dresden Sun (2026) Christie Cronan A thin, convoluted, and chaotic story means that writer/director/editor Michael Ryan's sci-fi passion project falls short.

Tow (2025) Tara McNamara Amanda's ride is a bumpy one, and at times the road feels too frustrating to stay on, but the journey offers several vistas that may steer viewers toward greater compassion and understanding.

Wardriver (2026) Tara McNamara Moody, mysterious, and metaphorical, director Rebecca Thomas' thriller blends neo noir elements with a modern-day crime to expose a timeless emotional vulnerability: loneliness.

The Bad News Bears (1976) TS Yellin It's thrilling, funny, and, at times, a poignant baseball film.

Bluey's Big Play: The Stage Show (2026) Kat Halstead Bluey's Big Play does a great job of offering something different and magical but not stepping too far away from everything kids know and love about the animated TV show.

Mr. Burton (2025) Kat Halstead Focusing on the early years of Richard Burton's life, when he started to believe he could overcome his circumstances and reach for his dreams, this is a kind of origins story of the Hollywood legend.

3/5
Louis Theroux: Inside The Manosphere (2026) Danny Brogan This is a bleak but important documentary that gains access to some of the men who are filling young boys' social media accounts with misogynistic messaging, or as some call it "red pill" ideology.
