Mercy (2026) Rachel Ho Had the film simply stuck to its meathead thrills, it would have been far better off.

Measures for a Funeral (2025) Alexa Margorian Bohdanowicz understands the power of silence as much as the power of music, using both to emphasize Audrey's isolation and loneliness.

Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery (2025) Rachel Ho Wake Up Dead Man demonstrates the best of what these films (and these types of whodunnits) can offer: films focused on entertaining without sacrificing intelligence.

28 Years Later: The Bone Temple (2026) Sarah Jessica Rintjema While likely to be forgotten as the awkward middle child, The Bone Temple prevails as a fun ride.

The Testament of Ann Lee (2025) Jericho Tadeo Seyfried truly shines in the darker and grittier moments, deftly toeing the line between a righteous prophet and a woman finding liberation in grief and tragedy at a time when she was seen as a lesser-than.

Rosemead (2025) Karen K. Tran In a film where the characters keep secrets from each other at an unfortunate cost, perhaps [Eric] Lin demonstrates that there was nothing to be ashamed of in the first place.

7/10
Primate (2025) Rachel Ho Primate is a simple creature feature that bypasses social commentary around the domestication of wild animals or their use in scientific studies, and it's better for it.

6/10
The Chronology of Water (2025) Alexa Margorian The film isn't interested in interrogating trauma, just depicting it.

7/10
We Bury the Dead (2024) Rachel Ho With We Bury the Dead, Ridley continues to make bold and interesting choices in her post-Star Wars career, and, thankfully, Ridley's latest punt is more Sometimes I Think of Dying than Chaos Walking.

7/10
Anaconda (2025) Victor Stiff While it remains an example of Hollywood recycling nostalgia rather than forging new stories, Anaconda proves that, in the right filmmaker's hands, it's possible to strike a satisfying compromise.

Is This Thing On? (2025) Rachel Ho Dern's portrayal of Tess reminds us of the sheer powerhouse consistency she's given audiences for decades. Neither character explicitly asks for sympathy from us, but Dern demands it for Tess.

5/10
The Housemaid (2025) Rachel Ho A film so close to recapturing the glory days of mid-budget thrillers, the shortcomings of The Housemaid only reminds us of the fun we used to have in cinemas instead of being any fun itself.

5/10
Avatar: Fire and Ash (2025) Rachel Ho Five writers, including Cameron, get a writing credit, and it shows. Fire and Ash is frenetic without being kinetic.

8/10
Dust Bunny (2025) Marko Djurdjić [Mikkelsen] performs with dignity and danger, putting his body through pain and violence in one scene, then switching to a gentle and empathetic father figure in the next.

5/10
100 Nights of Hero (2025) Josh Korngut By the time 100 Nights of Hero reaches its finale, the thrilling visual world and ambitious folktale architecture struggle to overcome narrative drift.
Posted Jan 07, 2026Edit critic review
Code 3 (2025) Courtney Small Code 3 may initially wear the scrubs of a frantic gross-out comedy, but underneath its seemingly flimsy garbs exists pointed commentary on the various policies clogging up the arteries of the healthcare system.
Posted Dec 20, 2025Edit critic review
Death Race 2000 (1975) Alan Bacchus The cartoonish tone aids in the satire, as well as taking our attention away from the production deficiencies.
Posted Dec 19, 2025Edit critic review
Ella McCay (2025) Courtney Small A dated and narratively directionless comedy, Ella McCay preaches the importance of finding the strength to have honest and healing conversations, but has nothing of note to say.

Marty Supreme (2025) Rachel Ho Caps off a year of fairly mediocre films with some much needed greatness.

Hamnet (2025) Alisha Mughal A film dealing in senses, it inspires in us the joys and pains of life and death.

Zootopia 2 (2025) Karlie Rogers Zootopia 2 pairs stunning animation with dynamic, lively action and insightful social commentary that brings its characters to life

Eternity (2025) Rachel Ho A commanding performance from Olsen that only continues her campaign as one of her generation's most dynamic actors going.

Train Dreams (2025) Rachel Ho Edgerton's ability to command the screen with a muted persuasion profoundly lays at the heart of Train Dreams.
Posted Nov 24, 2025Edit critic review
6/10
Wicked: For Good (2025) Jericho Tadeo [Ariana Grande] absolutely owns For Good, demonstrating a fuller range of her acting capability than we saw in the first film as she takes Glinda to darker places.

5/10
Now You See Me: Now You Don't (2025) Marriska Fernandes It sadly isn't as smart as it thinks it is. The magic itself isn't as clever or intricate as in previous entries, and the movie fails in comparison, settling for a convoluted storyline.
Posted Nov 24, 2025Edit critic review
8/10
Wrong Husband (2025) Matthew Simpson Kunuk has once again created something special: a film made for and by Inuit, with a story that transcends culture.

The Running Man (2025) Marriska Fernandes 'The Running Man' thrives as a popcorn movie, designed to be enjoyed on the biggest screen possible.

Christy (2025) Courtney Small 'Christy' may not throw any new punches in the biopic ring, but the great performances at least keep the audience's interest in this bout.

Predator: Badlands (2025) Josh Korngut Trachtenberg can't quite find balance between sincerity and fan service.
Posted Nov 06, 2025Edit critic review
7/10
Die My Love (2025) Courtney Small Lifted by the strong work from its cast, Die My Love stays engaging and endures as a perplexing examination of the dark ways motherhood can trap a person in a box they never fully fit in.

7/10
Ballad of a Small Player (2025) Jericho Tadeo [Colin] Farrell gives literal blood, sweat and tears in his portrayal of Lord Doyle, charming and disgusting us at the same time.
Posted Nov 03, 2025Edit critic review
8/10
Lesbian Space Princess (2025) Courtney Small Lesbian Space Princess washes down its bitter pills of truth with bountiful cups of laughter, creating a sharp and entertaining comedic romp that shouldn't be missed.

Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere (2025) Marko Djurdjić A dull, uninspired biopic that's only bolstered by its dedicated, commanding performances.

Who Killed the Montreal Expos? (2025) Alex Hudson The film is at its best when focusing on emotions rather than looking for answers.

Bugonia (2025) Barbara Goslawski [Emma] Stone maintains a cold restraint, while [Jesse] Plemons's acting has been liberated to a completely passionate degree.

The Mastermind (2025) Rachel Ho Slowly but surely, Kelly Reichardt has proven herself to be one of the modern greats of slow cinema.
Posted Oct 28, 2025Edit critic review
Shelby Oaks (2023) Sarah Jessica Rintjema To call a director's debut film "derivative" is overused, but Shelby Oaks unravels like a highlight reel of the film nerd's favourite genre tropes.
Posted Oct 24, 2025Edit critic review
From Beyond (1986) Cam Lindsay From Beyond is a very, very bizarre satirical horror that at times, gets more complex than it needs to.

After the Hunt (2025) Alisha Mughal This is a film that is in love with theories, which, unfortunately and disappointingly, means that it doesn't have anything meaningful to say about a topic that deserves more nuance, belief and intention.

Black Phone 2 (2025) Alisha Mughal This sequel exists simply for the sake of being a sequel, not for the sake of the story.

New Years Rev (2025) Alex Hudson Unless you look closely, you'd swear it was a long-lost '90s comedy

Are We Good? (2025) Marko Djurdjić Are We Good? doesn't romanticize losing a partner. It doesn't turn loss into some transcendental or cathartic experience, or pretend that it offers some teachable lesson. There's no moral behind it — that would be the Hollywood version.
Posted Oct 10, 2025Edit critic review

TRON: Ares (2025) Victor Stiff Tron: Ares offers the franchise its most entertaining entry yet, but admittedly that's a low bar.

Blue Heron (2025) Matthew Simpson Blue Heron signals Romvari as someone not just to watch for in the future, but to pay attention to here and now.

Peak Everything (2025) Matthew Simpson Hivon and Perabo have real, honest chemistry, making the film an easy one to watch.
Posted Oct 08, 2025Edit critic review
5/10
Steve (2025) Jericho Tadeo The film's form feels almost too raw in nature, opting for a cinéma vérité style that arguably amplifies the volatility of the students' behaviour and circumstances. With a steadier hand, this would be addictive.

6/10
Anemone (2025) Rachel Ho While RDL does demonstrate an artistic directorial acumen that will surely and eventually translate into rewarding work, such skills don't make themselves known enough in Anemone.

The Lost Bus (2025) Matthew Simpson Because it focuses on a small story amidst a big disaster, it ultimately feels small and insignificant, despite its technical successes.

One Battle After Another (2025) Rachel Ho As a self-proclaimed PTA detractor, One Battle After Another has me reconsidering my entire assessment of the director.
