Send Help (2026) 94% B EDIT “"Send Help" may wobble as it unravels, but it ultimately sticks the landing, largely on sheer craft and nerve. ” – The Only Critic Jan 27, 2026 Full Review Mercy (2026) 23% D- EDIT “I would like to officially welcome back the "January" movie.” – The Only Critic Jan 23, 2026 Full Review 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple (2026) 93% B+ EDIT “This fourth entry actively subverts expectations, balancing bursts of deadpan humor with the lingering cruelty of a world still very much capable of destroying itself. ” – The Only Critic Jan 16, 2026 Full Review The Rip (2026) 80% B- EDIT “Testosterone pumps through its veins, even as the pileup of double-crosses and red herrings in the final act nearly unravels everything the film has worked to establish.” – The Only Critic Jan 16, 2026 Full Review Greenland 2: Migration (2026) 49% C+ EDIT “Where the original film thrived on its sense of panic and emotional relatability, "Migration" feels curiously hollow.” – The Only Critic Jan 9, 2026 Full Review Primate (2025) 79% B EDIT “ "Primate" sticks to the basics and wisely avoids overthinking its simple but sturdy premise.” – The Only Critic Jan 6, 2026 Full Review Song Sung Blue (2025) 78% C+ EDIT “The musical sequences are naturally where the movie shines brightest, but my goodness, the moment these Jackman and Hudson step off the stage, everything around the movie crumbles faster than a Lifetime movie. ” – The Only Critic Dec 19, 2025 Full Review Marty Supreme (2025) 93% A EDIT “It is equal parts thrilling and confounding, powered by some of the best stunt casting in recent memory and a hyper-kinetic, barnstorming lead performance from Timothée Chalamet.” – The Only Critic Dec 19, 2025 Full Review The Housemaid (2025) 73% B EDIT “"The Housemaid" is high camp executed with confidence. It’s the kind of movie that plays best with an audience willing to lean in rather than lean back. ” – The Only Critic Dec 17, 2025 Full Review Avatar: Fire and Ash (2025) 66% B+ EDIT “At a time when the theatrical moviegoing experience feels perpetually on the brink of collapse, James Cameron once again rides in like a king returning to his throne.” – The Only Critic Dec 16, 2025 Full Review Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery (2025) 92% B+ EDIT ““Wake Up Dead Man” flirts with existential questions about faith, purpose, and identity, and it finds surprising weight in the idea of extracting meaning from spiritual and emotional collapse.” – The Only Critic Dec 11, 2025 Full Review Five Nights at Freddy's 2 (2025) 16% C EDIT “The problem, once again, is that none of this makes any logical sense. “Five Nights at Freddy’s 2” operates on a dream logic that feels less like intentional surrealism and more like basic storytelling negligence. ” – The Only Critic Dec 9, 2025 Full Review Jay Kelly (2025) 75% D+ EDIT “Ultimately, "Jay Kelly" feels like the kind of overindulgent Oscar bait that a fictional studio exec might fall asleep to in a screening room.” – The Only Critic Dec 4, 2025 Full Review Zootopia 2 (2025) 91% B- EDIT “It is admirable, and the dad jokes hit more often than not, but the film never digs deep enough to feel substantial. It is pleasant, but also strangely disposable.” – The Only Critic Nov 26, 2025 Full Review Eternity (2025) 77% B EDIT “Underneath the logistical wobbliness is something undeniably tender, "Eternity" digs into what we define as love, purpose, and the weight of shared history.” – The Only Critic Nov 26, 2025 Full Review Rental Family (2025) 87% C EDIT “Fraser is warm, grounded, and compelling, and it’s good to see him back in full leading-man form. I just wish the movie around him had the courage to look its own ideas in the eye. ” – The Only Critic Nov 21, 2025 Full Review Train Dreams (2025) 95% A- EDIT “The cinematography captures golden-hour landscapes, paired with a somber score and crisp, comforting narration that wraps around you like a warm blanket. It makes you want to step into the frame and see the world as Robert sees it.” – The Only Critic Nov 19, 2025 Full Review Wicked: For Good (2025) 66% B- EDIT “"Wicked: For Good," is heartfelt and heavy at times, but audiences who aren’t familiar with the musical are going to be taught quickly that Act II doesn’t deliver the same show-stopping bravado as "Defying Gravity" or the poppy, upbeat jolt of "Popular."” – The Only Critic Nov 18, 2025 Full Review The Running Man (2025) 62% EDIT “Instead of Wright’s usual kinetic confidence, we get a blender full of half-formed social commentary about surveillance states, media manipulation, and systemic oppression. ” – The Only Critic Nov 14, 2025 Full Review Now You See Me: Now You Don't (2025) 60% B EDIT “The interplay between the old guard and the new recruits gives the movie a shot of energy its predecessor sorely lacked. Like the "Fast and Furious" series, these movies function less as intricate capers and more as found-family action comedies. ” – The Only Critic Nov 12, 2025 Full Review Predator: Badlands (2025) 86% D+ EDIT “It’s a sanitized, self-aware spin on a franchise that used to feel raw and dangerous. ” – The Only Critic Nov 6, 2025 Full Review Die My Love (2025) 74% C+ EDIT “With Lawrence and Robert Pattinson going head-to-head, Ramsay seems content to wind them up and watch them implode. It’s hard to look away, but it’s equally hard to feel much beyond the spectacle.” – The Only Critic Nov 4, 2025 Full Review Christy (2025) 67% C- EDIT ““Christy,” for all its sweat and struggle, lands with the limp thud of a pulled punch.” – The Only Critic Nov 3, 2025 Full Review Bugonia (2025) 88% B EDIT “Lanthimos seems to be asking whether the human experiment is nearing its expiration date and whether conviction, empathy, or madness will define our final act.” – The Only Critic Oct 31, 2025 Full Review Shelby Oaks (2023) 55% D EDIT ““Shelby Oaks” feels less like a debut from a new voice and more like a patchwork quilt of borrowed ideas from better, braver films.” – The Only Critic Oct 27, 2025 Full Review
