A Private Life (2025) 81% EDIT “The movie's complexity can become a puzzle that feels unsolved, but Zlotowski, Foster, and a distinctive supporting cast create pieces that amuse, intrigue, and keep the story percolating.” – Denerstein Unleashed Jan 28, 2026 Full Review Lassie (1994) 89% 3/4 EDIT “Decent, if not inspired, family entertainment.” – Denver Rocky Mountain News Jan 26, 2026 Full Review North (1994) 12% 2/4 EDIT “Despite the presence of some sharply funny material, Rob Reiner's "North" quickly goes south.” – Denver Rocky Mountain News Jan 24, 2026 Full Review The Voice of Hind Rajab (2025) 95% EDIT “Although Hania's movie takes place in one setting, it's deftly assembled, and a strong cast recreates the intense efforts of harried volunteers who remind us that innocence, even that of a child, offers no protection from the violence of war. ” – Denerstein Unleashed Jan 23, 2026 Full Review Mercy (2026) 24% EDIT “A potentially rich premise becomes an excuse for a fragmented, digitally enriched collection of familiar plot elements and intermittent action.” – Denerstein Unleashed Jan 22, 2026 Full Review H Is for Hawk (2025) 78% EDIT “Lowthorpe captures the liberating beauty of Mable in flight, but never loses sight of the fact that the relationship between Mable and Helen contains an element of unease. ” – Denerstein Unleashed Jan 22, 2026 Full Review The American President (1995) 90% EDIT “Director Rob Reiner does best with the comedy portions of this gleaming hunk of neo-Capra. His stars are terrific, the settings are pleasing, and the supporting cast... brings some smartness to the mix. ” – Denver Rocky Mountain News Jan 22, 2026 Full Review Misery (1990) 87% 3/4 EDIT “"Misery" ends in a predictably shocking way, but Bates and Caan make a strange, funny couple.” – Denver Rocky Mountain News Jan 21, 2026 Full Review When Harry Met Sally... (1989) 90% 2.5/4 EDIT “"When Harry Met Sally" generates laughs with some good lines, but the movie never really clicks.” – Denver Rocky Mountain News Jan 20, 2026 Full Review Father Mother Sister Brother (2025) 81% EDIT “Avoiding big events and shocking plot twists, Jarmusch smartly explores situations that invite us to consider the unseen past that informs nearly every moment. ” – Denerstein Unleashed Jan 16, 2026 Full Review Dead Man's Wire (2025) 91% EDIT “Let’s call it a footnote of a movie that keeps you watching -- even if it doesn't prompt much by way of further consideration.” – Denerstein Unleashed Jan 16, 2026 Full Review 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple (2026) 92% EDIT “I don’t think Bone Temple, the second in a proposed trilogy, matches its predecessor, but it stands as a wild and weird sequel that holds its own, providing you like your horror served with a helping of gore.” – Denerstein Unleashed Jan 16, 2026 Full Review Primate (2025) 79% EDIT “Director Johannes Roberts' streamlined hunk of mayhem may appeal to those craving some no-frills horror. Otherwise, this slick offering follows a blueprint that offers jolts, gore -- and not much else.” – Denerstein Unleashed Jan 9, 2026 Full Review My Neighbor Adolf (2022) 44% EDIT “Both actors do their best to keep the story on track, but a Grumpy Old Men quality seems misplaced, and the screenplay becomes increasingly implausible.” – Denerstein Unleashed Jan 8, 2026 Full Review The Plague (2025) 97% EDIT “In tone and texture, The Plague resembles a horror film, but its ability to unsettle stems from its deeply rooted understanding of adolescent boys.” – Denerstein Unleashed Jan 8, 2026 Full Review Goodbye June (2025) 65% EDIT “This one is meant to jerk tears, but if I were going to shed any tears, they would be for a cast that deserved better material. No hard feelings, though. These accomplished actors surely will triumph anew.” – Denerstein Unleashed Jan 2, 2026 Full Review Anaconda (2025) 48% EDIT “Gormican mixes broad comedy and satire about movie cliches, but the movie's laughs may have gotten lost in the jungle, and its additions of horror seem like transfusions of gore into an already lost cause.” – Denerstein Unleashed Jan 2, 2026 Full Review No Other Choice (2025) 97% EDIT “No Other Choice has been assembled with the confidence of a master who has made a comedy about the way so many are drifting toward irrelevance. But not Park’s movie. By the movie's end, its relevance and stinging ironies have crystallized.” – Denerstein Unleashed Dec 30, 2025 Full Review The Testament of Ann Lee (2025) 88% EDIT “Fastvold and her team are as committed to their approach as Lee was to hers. She makes few concessions to crowd-pleasing even if her movie sometimes feels trapped by the same formality and rigor that defines its best moments.” – Denerstein Unleashed Dec 29, 2025 Full Review Marty Supreme (2025) 93% EDIT “The movie can be funny, but it can also feel punishing.” – Denerstein Unleashed Dec 29, 2025 Full Review Sirāt (2025) 92% EDIT “It's rare that a film leaves me speechless, but that's what happened with Sirat, a movie that struck me with the unsettling power of its immediacy.” – Denerstein Unleashed Dec 29, 2025 Full Review Song Sung Blue (2025) 78% EDIT “Even if you haven't been yearning to take a plunge into Neil Diamond nostalgia, Hudson’s dynamism and the movie’s high spirits make for a rewarding diversion.” – Denerstein Unleashed Dec 29, 2025 Full Review Is This Thing On? (2025) 86% EDIT “The movie is tolerable, but Cooper doesn't find much bite in its two-hour and four-minute runtime -- either in Alex's stand-up or in the movie itself. ” – Denerstein Unleashed Dec 20, 2025 Full Review The Housemaid (2025) 74% EDIT “The Housemaid may not be a great thriller, but it hosts enough plot twists to sustain interest while offering a lush mixture of sexual and psychological maneuvering.” – Denerstein Unleashed Dec 17, 2025 Full Review Avatar: Fire and Ash (2025) 66% EDIT “As Avatar movies go, this one pulls out all the stops, wrapping up loose ends and adding new wrinkles -- all presented with Cameron's signature capacity for extensive, encompassing world-building. ” – Denerstein Unleashed Dec 17, 2025 Full Review
