The Rip (2026) 79% B EDIT “It functions comfortably enough as a dependable mid-tier action movie, with its grizzled performances, gunplay, and plethora of twists to keep Dad from dozing in his recliner.” – AV Club Jan 16, 2026 Full Review The Running Man (2025) 62% 6.4/10 EDIT “Wright’s flair for freakazoids remains undeniable, but his focus on rebellion obscures the cruel machinery that incites it.” – Paste Magazine Nov 11, 2025 Full Review Predator: Badlands (2025) 86% C EDIT “The mystique of the Predator, what it was and where it came from, was best left to the imagination; the second you start pulling at that thread, the whole idea falls apart. ” – AV Club Nov 4, 2025 Full Review A HOUSE OF DYNAMITE (2025) 75% 5.8/10 EDIT “Imagine how much more engrossing this might have been if characters like these were allowed to be messy in the face of such horror. Bigelow’s hand steers this vessel so purposefully that we can scarcely feel the earth shift under it.” – Paste Magazine Oct 9, 2025 Full Review V/H/S Halloween (2025) 89% B EDIT “This edition is hardly nightmare-inducing, but it’s still as broadly enjoyable as a crisp October night.” – AV Club Sep 30, 2025 Full Review HIM (2025) 30% 3.2/10 EDIT “Tipping smothers the material in hyperactive montage, every idea pushed to its most obvious extreme, until style bludgeons substance and leaves it twitching in the end zone. ” – Paste Magazine Sep 18, 2025 Full Review The Toxic Avenger (2023) 87% B EDIT “The quality of this reboot, its dutiful nods, and its end-credits sequel tease all clear a path for Toxie to explore stranger, grodier frontiers.” – AV Club Aug 29, 2025 Full Review Weapons (2025) 93% 8.9/10 EDIT “Cregger mixes all this despair, cynicism, and brutality into an impressively wicked and heady brew—and a ferociously entertaining horror movie, besides.” – Paste Magazine Aug 6, 2025 Full Review The Fantastic Four: First Steps (2025) 86% 8.0/10 EDIT “More than a solid MCU entry, First Steps is among the most vivid, peculiar, and emotionally present superhero films of the past decade.” – Paste Magazine Jul 24, 2025 Full Review Osiris (2025) 50% 4/10 EDIT “Kaufman lacks the visual imagination and genre curiosity that would push this movie to the extremes it requires to be memorable. He may be a sturdy B-movie craftsman, but his first crack at cosmic warfare leaves much to be desired.” – IGN Movies Jul 23, 2025 Full Review Superman (2025) 83% B+ EDIT “Superman delivers a simple, potent message: You don’t need X-ray vision to see people as people.” – AV Club Jul 8, 2025 Full Review Familiar Touch (2024) 98% 8.8/10 EDIT “Ache informs much of Sarah Friedland’s Familiar Touch, a still, gentle film about the ravages of time told with uncommon grace and dignity. Above all else, it’s a film acutely aware of memory’s place in a person’s sense of identity.” – Paste Magazine Jun 18, 2025 Full Review Diablo (2025) 71% 7/10 EDIT “Even though his VOD mission is saddled with boilerplate characterization, director Ernesto Díaz Espinoza executes it with grindhouse panache, effectively and admirably pulling Adkins into a new, more mature phase of his career.” – IGN Movies Jun 16, 2025 Full Review Thunderbolts* (2025) 88% 7.1/10 EDIT “It’s hardly revolutionary, and it doesn’t fully reverse the MCU’s continued entropy, but Thunderbolts* insists that Marvel characters matter. And for the first time in a hot minute, its audience might agree.” – Paste Magazine Apr 30, 2025 Full Review Warfare (2025) 92% 7.3/10 EDIT “As a blistering exercise in sustained tension, Warfare works. As a depiction of the toll war takes on the body and soul, well, it’s pretty good at that, too. ” – Paste Magazine Apr 10, 2025 Full Review Hell of a Summer (2023) 49% C- EDIT “There are no establishing shots, no gradual build of suspense. But then, there are also no jokes, and the methods used to kill these characters pack no ironic punch.” – AV Club Apr 4, 2025 Full Review A Minecraft Movie (2025) 48% 4.5/10 EDIT “Predictably, this iteration of Minecraft instead plays it safe, constructing plot conveniences instead of digging for inspiration, reaching for half-assed emotional sentiment that drains the film of any anarchic fun. ” – Paste Magazine Apr 2, 2025 Full Review The Friend (2024) 84% 6.5/10 EDIT “The Friend is rather tidy for a movie about a prim, comfortable professional confronting tricky emotions while caring for an enormous dog.” – Paste Magazine Mar 31, 2025 Full Review The Witcher: Sirens of the Deep (2025) 58% 4/10 EDIT “Doug Cockle’s return as Geralt of Rivia is a casting coup worth celebrating. Too bad the movie he stars in is so boilerplate. ” – IGN Movies Feb 11, 2025 Full Review Grafted (2024) 78% 7/10 EDIT “While its performances are fierce and its gore playful and wild, Rainbow’s feature debut plays it safe with the racial and sexual taboos inherent to its gnarly concept. ” – IGN Movies Jan 25, 2025 Full Review Companion (2025) 93% 7.0/10 EDIT “Hancock’s vicious, buoyant, surprisingly sweet movie has, if not provocative, then affirming things to say about identity and the transcendent feeling of unburdening oneself from shitty one-sided relationships, and can be a real bop if you play along.” – Paste Magazine Jan 22, 2025 Full Review Street Trash (2024) 60% 5/10 EDIT “While his storytelling goals are admirable and his practical effects impressive, Kruger's tones are all over the map, his attempt to convey both drama and a clear political message sanitizing the film's transgressive underground appeal.” – IGN Movies Nov 18, 2024 Full Review Red One (2024) 30% 2.5/10 EDIT “We can all use a reaffirming message this holiday season, but this stuffs stockings with little more than hot air. I’d have preferred some coal. There’s at least a use for that.” – Paste Magazine Nov 13, 2024 Full Review Cloud (2024) 93% 6.3/10 EDIT “As a thriller, Cloud is half of a fascinating, disquieting, grimly amusing satire of online chicanery. As an action movie, it’s chaotic and vague, grasping to voice a critique of our digitally warped capitalistic age.” – Paste Magazine Oct 30, 2024 Full Review Venom: The Last Dance (2024) 40% 5.8/10 EDIT “Although this enjoyably capricious version of the character doesn’t quite resemble his vicious, violent comic counterpart, there’s a reason why Venom resonates with filmgoers—this spud wants to party and, when it counts, knows how to put on a good one.” – Paste Magazine Oct 23, 2024 Full Review
