Sinners (2025)
98%
“With Sinners, the director is playing a different game. He’s forcing the broad mainstream audience he’s cultivated to meet him fully on his own eccentric terms. That the results are imperfect doesn’t matter because they’re so often exhilarating. ” –

Disney's Snow White (2025)

1/4
“There’s nothing magical in Marc Webb’s movie, but it nevertheless feels uncanny; spending $250 million to make a film in which absolutely nothing works is a kind of dark art in and of itself.” –

“Recycled, self-cannibalizing slop, a dystopian action movie for dystopian times, the cinematic equivalent of Soylent Green. ” –

The Monkey (2025)

“It’s one thing to try to create a goofy, gory crowd-pleaser; it’s another to steadily bleed the enjoyment out of the equation by making the movie in question as smug and unpleasant as possible.” –

Captain America: Brave New World (2025)
48%
“If Brave New World isn’t the worst movie ever released under the Marvel banner, it might just be the dullest -- a humorless, grayed-out vision of contractual obligation featuring actors who look like they’d rather be anywhere else.” –

A Complete Unknown (2024)
82%
“The film’s structure aims for the long, winding lines of a ballad, but the overall effect is more like a series of catchy, finger-picked jingles; we go behind the music without getting inside of it.” –

The Room Next Door (2024)

“The insistence on political and ethical declarations not only forecloses the possibility of audience interpretation but defuses Almodóvar’s ribald sense of humor, swapping out playful provocation for hectoring. ” –

The Brutalist (2024)

“Because so much of The Brutalist is impressive it’s hard to completely write it off for its flaws. At the same time, the general quality of its craftsmanship can’t quite obviate the hollowness of the entire enterprise.” –

Blitz (2024)

“Blitz knows what it's doing and why, but its compromises may be more self-deceiving than subversive. Cloaking himself more heavily than ever in populist hand-me-downs, McQueen gets swallowed up by his own brilliant disguise. ” –
