Sinners (2025)
98%
4/5
“Action-musical-vampire-romance flick Sinners is perhaps a bit over-ambitious in trying to tackle its final genre: social satire and critique. But even for its small faults, it is also something else: in short, an incredible, best-of-the-year achievement.” –

Warfare (2025)
93%
2.5/5
“Warfare is constantly efficient and exciting, expertly choreographed with harrowing and believable performances. But its electricity comes from an unending maelstrom of bullets, buttressing a film absolved of questioning how we should feel about them.” –

A Minecraft Movie (2025)

2/5
“A Minecraft Movie — even grading on a kiddie grade-curve — is no classic. And at the same time, a clumsy attempt to have its cake and eat it too leads to a moral at complete cross-purposes with itself. ” –

Disney's Snow White (2025)
40%
2.5/5
“Snow White is firmly in the pantheon of films that chip away at our culture simply by existing, stupidly forcing a story designed for animation into live action where it can't help but showcase the shortcomings of one while invalidating the other. ” –

Mickey 17 (2025)

2.5/5
“If something like Francis Ford Coppola's self-funded disaster Megalopolis proved that artists should sometimes listen to someone other than themselves, Mickey 17 might just prove the opposite. ” –

The Monkey (2025)

2/5
“There's nothing under the hood, no real message or even originality in delivering and redelivering the spectacle. The Monkey is not a Cadillac without an engine; it's a rusty clown car running in a closed garage. ” –

Captain America: Brave New World (2025)

2.5/5
“The MCU is event cinema, and the bigger it gets, the more an audience expects in return. Two decades in, a low-rent Iron Man with wings just doesn't cut it.” –

Love Hurts (2025)
19%
1.5/5
“Love Hurts hurts. It hurts to look at. It hurts to sit through. And it hurts me to look at a smiling Ke Huy Quan at the start of his comeback tour, and put him down like I'm Wesley Snipes in New Jack City. ” –

I'm Still Here (2024)

3/5
“I'm Still Here is a fundamentally solid and rewarding watch that lives and dies by Torres's quiet, fierce performance. But what makes it so appetizing to the Oscars' lineup is also its worst quality: sterility.” –

Hard Truths (2024)

“Hard Truths might be the most accurate portrayal of borderline personality disorder ever put on screen. In fact, it could find use as shorthand. Instead of uncomfortable conversations, worried relatives could ask:"Just curious, have you seen Hard Truths?"” –

Queer (2024)
77%
4/5
“Luca Guadagnino's Queer is in no way a happy fable, and its heartbreaking epilogue does tack closer to William Burroughs's original tone. But you have to wonder: If Burroughs were alive to see this adaptation, would he worry you'd miss the point?” –

“There is at least the nugget of self-awareness in Young Werther, and a kind of depressed, Technicolor twee... that is satisfying specifically because of how much is left unsaid and unfulfilled.” –

“Blitz is more or less a pastiche of other war films with more economical, and affecting, focus. But even if McQueen's film is using that old language in a somewhat tired, traditional way, it is still valuable — especially now.” –
