Shelter (2026) Frank Scheck Shelter reliably provides plenty of the action that Statham fans crave, not to mention his trademark charisma and low-key underplaying that makes Charles Bronson look overly demonstrative.

The AI Doc: Or How I Became an Apocaloptimist (2026) Caryn James The style all but shouts that it’s a movie with talking heads that doesn’t want to be boring, and there’s a hyper feel to the pacing, as if the directors were afraid to slow down. But those strategies largely work.

The Only Living Pickpocket in New York (2026) David Rooney Turturro is unshowy but magnificent in his best film role in years, an honorable hustler who still carries himself with dignity despite a lifetime of regrets and a world gradually leaving him behind.

The Brittney Griner Story (2026) Richard Lawson The film is a sturdy, informative recitation of facts -- though one does long for a bit more style, and perhaps for a wider purview.

See You When I See You (2026) David Rooney No one enjoys beating up on a film in which the writer has invested so much of himself and his pain. But Cayton-Holland and Duplass have somehow made an authentic tragedy feel phony and unaffecting.

Cookie Queens (2026) Leslie Felperin Cookie Queens serves up an eminently accessible and easily meme-able serving of American-girl cuteness, featuring a diverse cast of well-chosen young women.

In the Blink of an Eye (2026) Richard Lawson There is so little texture to these character arcs that the actors are mostly just working in service of a blandly uplifting message. It’s as if they’ve all been commissioned by a well-funded science museum.

The Weight (2026) David Rooney Although The Weight is low on excitement, it ends on an affecting note that makes you wish the sluggish movie had been given more lucid storytelling, as well as more dramatic and emotional power.

Chasing Summer (2026) Richard Lawson The movie’s weirdness is so, well, weird that it flies past interesting and lands in utterly baffling. It’s among the most discordant pairings of director and material that I’ve seen in some time.

Take Me Home (2026) Sheri Linden There isn’t a predictable or hackneyed exchange in the drama, which understands not just the immense challenges its characters face but also the throwaway humor that can be essential to a family’s connective tissue.

The Wrecking Crew (2026) Frank Scheck Movies like this depend almost entirely on chemistry between the co-stars, and fortunately Bautista and Momoa have plenty of it.

Knife: The Attempted Murder of Salman Rushdie (2026) David Rooney While it feels a fraction overlong, Gibney’s film is a vibrant testament to the intellectual life of its subject.
Posted Jan 26, 2026  Edit critic review
Send Help (2026) Frank Scheck Sam Raimi’s darkly comic horror-thriller starring Rachel McAdams and Dylan O’Brien boasts an audacious concept that is superbly realized by Raimi’s filmmaking, which milks every bizarre situation for all it’s worth.

Gail Daughtry and the Celebrity Sex Pass (2026) Richard Lawson Both goofy and edgy, the film may not land every punchline, but it satisfies in visceral, pleasurable ways that a more sophisticated comedy could not.

The Musical (2026) Richard Lawson This is a show that needed much more tweaking before rehearsals even began.
Posted Jan 26, 2026  Edit critic review
The Gallerist (2026) Richard Lawson What reads as fun on paper -- Natalie Portman plays a desperate Miami gallery owner trying to pass off a dead body as conceptual art -- is rendered clumsy and inert on screen.
Posted Jan 26, 2026  Edit critic review
Soul Patrol (2026) Sheri Linden At first this conceit, entwining the otherworldly intensity of war with the everyday, feels self-conscious. But the poetic leaps gather emotional force as the film proceeds.
Posted Jan 26, 2026  Edit critic review
Wicker (2026) Richard Lawson A warming, sometimes poignant pleasure, a film full of lively personality and possessed of a rather humane outlook on our petty foibles. It is not exactly forgiving, though; the movie has a harder, more merciless edge than one might expect.
Posted Jan 26, 2026  Edit critic review
The Friend's House Is Here (2026) Angie Han The film’s predominant mood is one not of despair but of defiance, placing its faith in the enduring powers of friendship and creativity.
Posted Jan 26, 2026  Edit critic review
zi (2026) David Rooney It’s understandable that Kogonada might crave a radical creative reset... But the resulting project, Zi, sad to say, is too wispy to be compelling as a narrative or even enveloping as a vibe.

The Invite (2026) David Rooney After the disproportionate bashing Wilde took on Don’t Worry Darling, her new movie should silence the doubters. At this point it’s hard to deny she’s the real deal as a director.

undertone (2025) Richard Lawson The film becomes so frustratingly derivative that all its other flaws, perhaps once forgivable, are cast into much harsher light.
Posted Jan 25, 2026  Edit critic review
Bedford Park (2026) Angie Han Though its unflashy style and delicate emotionality are unlikely to sweep viewers off their feet, its eye for fine detail and bittersweet tone make it an absorbing experience worth seeking out.
Posted Jan 25, 2026  Edit critic review
Buddy (2026) David Rooney Genre audiences willing to settle for some weird-ass but ultimately toothless subversiveness might enjoy Buddy... But the movie is a one-joke premise, cute and colorful but unsatisfyingly fleshed out.

Filipiñana (2026) Jordan Mintzer Filipiñana could have benefited from a little more story and a little less contemplation. But some of its images remain embedded in the memory.

One in a Million (2026) Sheri Linden A distillation of formative years for Israa and turning points for her family, One in a Million feels both ultra-specific and universal.
Posted Jan 25, 2026  Edit critic review
Extra Geography (2026) Richard Lawson At its best, Extra Geography is a wistful look at the crucibles of young adulthood, at two people forming and re-forming into shapes that may no longer be compatible with one another.
Posted Jan 25, 2026  Edit critic review
American Doctor (2026) Jordan Mintzer What makes American Doctor stand out is how it eschews the bigger picture to focus primarily on the practical, and often hard-to-watch, reality of surgeons trying to save lives in the operating room.

Public Access (2026) Daniel Fienberg There are good and righteous thoughts in Public Access and I think the points it wants to make get through if you work at it, but man the journey to get there is chaotic.
Posted Jan 25, 2026  Edit critic review
Leviticus (2026) Richard Lawson Leviticus has the sturdy nerve and conviction to plainly state that sometimes home and family are irredeemable and worth abandoning. It is not so concerned with changing hearts and minds, but with saving lives.

I Want Your Sex (2026) David Rooney Even if it threatens to run out of steam in the late action, the movie is a blast, demonstrating that at 66, Araki has lost none of his youthful spark.

The Moment (2026) Richard Lawson Those devoted to the Charli cause will no doubt get more out of the film than an out-of-touch oldster like myself ever could. But the film probably should have endeavored to be more broadly accessible.

Josephine (2026) David Rooney With precise visuals and elegant scene transitions accented by a restrained synth score, the drama is insightful even as it asks questions destined to remain unanswered.

Paralyzed by Hope: The Maria Bamford Story (2026) Daniel Fienberg The documentary has one serious problem that won’t bother many viewers and doesn’t fully detract from a portrait that blends the candid, silly, uncomfortable, sad and triumphant, just like Bamford herself.

The Disciple (2026) Daniel Fienberg It’s a challenging combination of genres, one that Natasegara balances fairly well.

Hot Water (2026) Jon Frosch A mother-son road movie more laced with humor than laden with trauma, Hot Water marks a warm and sensitive, if not entirely satisfying, debut feature from Ramzi Bashour.

The Huntress (2026) Sheri Linden The character is brought to vibrant, ferocious, conflicted life by a superb Adriana Paz.

American Pachuco: The Legend of Luis Valdez (2026) Jordan Mintzer Understanding the life and work of Luis Valdez is a way to broaden one’s understanding of what it means to be American, perhaps now more than ever. Watching this enlightening and entertaining documentary is a good way to start.

Ha-Chan, Shake Your Booty! (2026) Caryn James With an engaging star and a story that leads to a touching, optimistic ending, Wladyka has created a little gem likely to find its audience.

Carousel (2026) David Rooney Returning to solitude as a central theme after Sometimes I Think About Death, the director has made a flawed movie that requires patience, but it delivers in the end, thanks in large part to the sensitive work of three excellent leads.

The History of Concrete (2026) Daniel Fienberg I doubt any movie, especially not any documentary, will make me laugh harder this year, and many of its emotional grace notes land fully. Even with my high expectations, The History of Concrete is a small triumph.

Hanging by a Wire (2026) Richard Lawson Perhaps if the film was more polished, and had some added depth, it might feel more substantial. As is, Hanging by a Wire is a gripping story not told thoroughly enough.... Still, there is enough visceral stuff in the movie to make it an engaging sit.

Misery (1990) Kirk Honeycutt "Misery" falls into the trap of catering to audience expectations.

Mercy (2026) Frank Scheck It should be avoided by anyone suffering from screen addiction. Which these days is pretty much everybody.

The Rip (2026) David Rooney While his new film doesn’t reshape the mold, an ace cast led by Matt Damon and Ben Affleck and twisty plotting that bristles with paranoia and mistrust make it an entertaining watch.

28 Years Later: The Bone Temple (2026) David Rooney The standout craft element here is a powerful horror score by Hildur Gudnadottir that ranges from solemn, quasi-ecclesiastical passages to gut-churning, droning soundscapes.

Primate (2025) David Rooney As a creature feature, Primate gets the job done and has its share of asinine wit.

People We Meet on Vacation (2026) Angie Han People We Leave on Vacation might not be anyone’s idea of a forever home. But it’s a lovely place to visit for a few lazy hours.

A Few Good Men (1992) Duane Byrge Tom Cruise, equal parts mettle and dazzle, erupts with a fully fleshed lead performance that should finally bring him his just due as an actor, while Jack Nicholson forges a terrific performance as an ironpants militarist.
Posted Jan 09, 2026  Edit critic review
I'm Chevy Chase and You're Not (2025) Daniel Fienberg Zenovich does a better job of acknowledging contradictions in complicated human behavior than reckoning with what those contradictions mean... Still, there are worthwhile conversations that "I’m Chevy Chase" might allow viewers to have.
