Wicked: For Good (2025) 66% 4/5 EDIT “Wicked: For Good is fun, flamboyant, and totally aware of its own spectacle. While it should have taken the chance to deviate more from the stage musical, Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo once again deliver equally powerful performances. ” – Discussing Film Nov 18, 2025 Full Review The Running Man (2025) 62% 3.5/5 EDIT “While its script can be rather thin at times, Edgar Wright's propulsive direction and an explosive cast led by Glen Powell still make The Running Man a fun trip to the movies. ” – Discussing Film Nov 11, 2025 Full Review Dead Man's Wire (2025) 91% B+ EDIT “Bill Skarsgård has nothing left to prove. He is a talent that possesses such a vast range and stout creative intellect, with his turn as Tony Kiritisis being no exception.” – AwardsWatch Sep 8, 2025 Full Review Father Mother Sister Brother (2025) 81% 1/5 EDIT “It's as if every interesting concept proposed in Father Mother Sister Brother is entirely futile and carries no weight whatsoever. What stands when the credits roll is an empty shell of a film.” – Discussing Film Sep 7, 2025 Full Review Late Fame (2026) 85% C+ EDIT “It’s always a shame to see potential in a project that clearly fails to see it in itself. There is so much that could be explored within Late Fame, especially with such a strong initial setup at hand.” – AwardsWatch Sep 5, 2025 Full Review In the Hand of Dante (2025) 43% 1/5 EDIT “Julian Schnabel’s In the Hand of Dante is a severe misfire and complete chore to sit through, even finding a way to make a huge waste of star Oscar Isaac.” – Discussing Film Sep 5, 2025 Full Review The Voice of Hind Rajab (2025) 95% A EDIT “There is a level of bravery that goes into crafting a project of this calibre, and there is no doubt that there will be mindless opposition, but Kaouther Ben Hania’s steady script and direction lay all the facts out on the table.” – AwardsWatch Sep 3, 2025 Full Review A HOUSE OF DYNAMITE (2025) 75% 4/5 EDIT “The combined forces of Kathryn Bigelow's realistic gritty direction and Oppenheim's skillfully layered script yield an outlook that takes these high-ranking officials and renders them equals with the people they are obliged to protect.” – Little White Lies Sep 2, 2025 Full Review The Smashing Machine (2025) 70% 4.5/5 EDIT “The Smashing Machine is more than just another sports biopic, examining what makes or breaks us as humans through a spectacular lead performance from Dwayne Johnson. ” – Discussing Film Sep 1, 2025 Full Review Rose of Nevada (2025) 100% A- EDIT “Jenkin resists convention in both storytelling and craft, refusing easy answers, what lingers by the end is not its oddities but its humanity.” – AwardsWatch Sep 1, 2025 Full Review After the Hunt (2025) 37% 3/5 EDIT “Director Luca Guadagnino and screenwriter Nora Garrett evidently have a lot to say about this story's delicate subject matter, but the film ultimately circles its themes without fully delving into them.” – Discussing Film Aug 29, 2025 Full Review Freakier Friday (2025) 73% EDIT “Freakier Friday offers enough humor, nostalgia, and stellar performances from its returning leads to make it a worthwhile watch, especially if it introduces a new generation to the Freaky Friday formula.” – Little White Lies Aug 5, 2025 Full Review Elio (2025) 83% 4/5 EDIT “There’s an unde­ni­able charm to this film that makes it easy to be daz­zled by.” – Little White Lies Jun 23, 2025 Full Review How to Train Your Dragon (2025) 77% 3/5 EDIT “On the whole, the live-action How to Train Your Drag­on plays it extreme­ly safe. It’s per­fect­ly pass­able, but only because it close­ly mir­rors a nar­ra­tive that’s already well-loved. ” – Little White Lies Jun 10, 2025 Full Review Die My Love (2025) 74% 3.5/5 EDIT “Jennifer Lawrence and Robert Pattinson are undeniably in peak form, and writer-director Lynne Ramsay pushes viewers to the edge of their seats with nail-biting tension. Yet, due to its lacking script, Die, My Love comes shy of reaching true greatness. ” – Discussing Film Jun 6, 2025 Full Review Once Upon a Time in Gaza (2025) 92% EDIT “The melodrama derives from rich cultural specificity that lends itself well to this tale of love, loss, and unrest.” – Little White Lies May 27, 2025 Full Review Young Mothers (2025) 95% B- EDIT “While the Dardenne brothers maintain their signature approach, their reliance on performance and overstuffing of the film’s narrative occasionally undercut its emotional power. ” – AwardsWatch May 26, 2025 Full Review The Phoenician Scheme (2025) 77% 4/5 EDIT “The Phoenician Scheme is unlike Wes Anderson's other recent films, putting a stronger emphasis on black comedy and a singular leading performance from the great Benicio del Toro.” – Discussing Film May 20, 2025 Full Review Meteors (2025) EDIT “Both as a duo and individually, Kircher and Azougli offer robust performances that sway between rowdy displays of masculinity and hushed tenderness as these lost fledglings on the fringes of society. ” – Little White Lies May 19, 2025 Full Review Urchin (2025) 96% 5/5 EDIT “Urchin avoids the common stereotypes and tropes found in stories about addiction, opting for something much more abstract and powerful. Harris Dickinson's directorial skills on display prove that his career as a filmmaker is just getting started. ” – Discussing Film May 18, 2025 Full Review The Amateur (2025) 62% 3.5/5 EDIT “The Amateur carries more tension and suspense than other recent spy thrillers, but is held back by an uneven script and a somewhat miscast Rami Malek.” – Discussing Film Apr 11, 2025 Full Review Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy (2025) 88% 2.5/5 EDIT “Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy ultimately lacks what made the previous sequels so compelling on their own terms. The end result is a final installment that feels like a stumble at the finish line. ” – Discussing Film Feb 13, 2025 Full Review And Their Children After Them (2024) 82% EDIT “On occasion, the narrative feels repetitive, yet the Boukhermas embellish these moments as the story progresses with variables that culminate in the slow but steady growth of the characters at its core. ” – Little White Lies Jan 28, 2025 Full Review Paddington in Peru (2024) 93% 4/5 EDIT “Paddington In Peru doesn’t quite reach the exemplary gold standard set by the first two Paddington movies. However, that bar is admittedly extremely high to the point where it doesn’t make this sequel any less of a true pleasure to watch.” – Discussing Film Nov 11, 2024 Full Review Babygirl (2024) 76% 4/5 EDIT “Babygirl isn’t your average "age gap" or "secret office romance" tale. Additionally, it's more than your average erotic thriller. It's a poignant story about a woman struggling to define her own needs and desires.” – Discussing Film Sep 26, 2024 Full Review
