The Housemaid (2025) 73% 3/5 EDIT “The film assembles a cast of attractive individuals and allows them to be intimate with each other, a formula that will appeal to a very specific audience while also repelling the rest.” – Koimoi Jan 16, 2026 Full Review Greenland 2: Migration (2026) 49% 2.5/5 EDIT “Greenland 2: Migration is one of those films that needed a vision in order to exist, but there is no justification other than the first one did enough money to warrant this sequel” – Koimoi Jan 16, 2026 Full Review The SpongeBob Movie: Search for SquarePants (2025) 82% 2.5/5 EDIT “The SpongeBob Movie: Search for SquarePants trails on the edge when it comes to keeping the faith of the franchise alive” – Koimoi Jan 16, 2026 Full Review Anaconda (2025) 48% 2.5/5 EDIT “This new version of the classic Anaconda prefers to go meta, and you will probably only enjoy it if you are a fan of Jack Black and Paul Rudd or of rancid humor.” – Koimoi Dec 29, 2025 Full Review Five Nights at Freddy's 2 (2025) 16% 2/5 EDIT “The famous horror franchise arrives for a second time in cinemas, but the execution feels like a waste of time, and the video game adaptation curse is back at it again.” – Koimoi Dec 20, 2025 Full Review Avatar: Fire and Ash (2025) 66% 4.5/5 EDIT “James Cameron’s third Avatar film is as spectacular as the previous films, but it does feel like the middle chapter in a bigger story.” – Koimoi Dec 20, 2025 Full Review Zootopia 2 (2025) 91% 4.5/5 EDIT “Zootopia 2 builds on what came before, and while I don’t find it as unique as the first film is, the execution of the story is superb, and the mystery engaging.” – Koimoi Dec 1, 2025 Full Review The Running Man (2025) 62% 2.5/5 EDIT “Glen Powell does the best he can in The Running Man, directed by one of the best directors around, but the result is a film with no personality and no memorable elements.” – Koimoi Dec 1, 2025 Full Review Now You See Me: Now You Don't (2025) 60% 2/5 EDIT “Now You See Me: Now You Don’t fails to hit the right magic notes as the third movie in the franchise falters at crunch moments” – Koimoi Dec 1, 2025 Full Review Wicked: For Good (2025) 66% 3.5/5 EDIT “Wicked: For Good goes for a truly epic resolution to the story, but it also misses the mark in several stages, and the result is a solid but underwhelming final act.” – Koimoi Dec 1, 2025 Full Review Predator: Badlands (2025) 86% 4.5/5 EDIT “Dan Trachtenberg has really become the protector of the Predator franchise, and you can feel his passion pouring out to make this the best science fiction franchise it can be.” – Koimoi Nov 14, 2025 Full Review The Smashing Machine (2025) 70% 3.5/5 EDIT “Dwayne Johnson will be able to shut his detractors with his incredible performance in The Smashing Machine, even if the rest of it is quite inconsistent.” – Koimoi Oct 19, 2025 Full Review TRON: Ares (2025) 53% 3/5 EDIT “Tron Ares feels more like a pilot from a TV series than something truly cinematic, thanks to its pacing and plotting that might be too tight.” – Koimoi Oct 19, 2025 Full Review Caught Stealing (2025) 85% 2.5/5 EDIT “Caught Stealing is Darren Aronofsky’s most approachable work in his filmography, but also the most boring of them all, thanks to a script with no bite!” – Koimoi Oct 19, 2025 Full Review One Battle After Another (2025) 94% 3.5/5 EDIT “Leonardo DiCaprio, Benicio del Toro, and Sean Penn are the highlights of One Battle After Another, but as with Inherent Vice, the lack of focus hurts the film from beginning to end.” – Koimoi Sep 27, 2025 Full Review Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Infinity Castle (2025) 98% 3/5 EDIT “The Demon Slayer story is reaching its end with a film that feels more like several TV episodes coming together than anything else, making it a bit too long.” – Koimoi Sep 16, 2025 Full Review The Conjuring: Last Rites (2025) 58% 3.5/5 EDIT “With The Conjuring: Last Rites, director Michael Chaves delivers his best film in the franchise, proving he might be a capable horror director with ambitions for something greater.” – Koimoi Sep 6, 2025 Full Review Nobody 2 (2025) 76% 3/5 EDIT “Nobody 2 takes the original film’s premise and trying to do something different with it, but without putting the effort the script needed to make everything happening on the screen feel more than just action for action’s sake.” – Koimoi Sep 3, 2025 Full Review Weapons (2025) 93% EDIT “Director Zach Cregger's second feature film, Weapons, proves that there is still much to be done in the horror genre.” – Koimoi Aug 15, 2025 Full Review Freakier Friday (2025) 73% 3.5/5 EDIT “The chemistry between Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan is still there. It feels fantastic and nostalgic to watch them get crazy once again in Freakier Friday.” – Koimoi Aug 15, 2025 Full Review The Fantastic Four: First Steps (2025) 86% 2.5/5 EDIT “The Fantastic Four: First Steps feels archaic in ways that don’t attract nostalgia, with a plot that has already been done and stiff performances from the cast.” – Koimoi Jul 25, 2025 Full Review Superman (2025) 83% 4.5/5 EDIT “James Gunn is now a veteran of making comic book films. In Superman, he distills all that experience into an almost experimental cinema, showing the genre still has a lot of room to explore on the big screen.” – Koimoi Jul 11, 2025 Full Review Jurassic World Rebirth (2025) 50% 2/5 EDIT “Jurassic World: Rebirth goes into the monster movie route and forgets that it was the splendor and awe of the dinosaur that made the franchise great to begin with.” – Koimoi Jul 11, 2025 Full Review F1 The Movie (2025) 82% 4/5 EDIT “Brad Pitt goes against expectations for sports films in F1, but the visual direction is what really stands out in this racing epic.” – Koimoi Jun 28, 2025 Full Review 28 Years Later (2025) 88% 4/5 EDIT “28 Years Later is, in parts, the same as the original, but it is also quite different, proving that the filmmakers have matured alongside the stories they want to tell.” – Koimoi Jun 28, 2025 Full Review
