Candyman (2021)
84%
9/10
“A compelling story that explores how urban legends rise out of traumatic injustices; how those traumas continue to haunt communities over generations; and how the victims of those injustices can be turned into monsters by the stories we choose to tell.” –

The Hitman's Wife's Bodyguard (2021)
25%
3.5/4
“The first act is a bit clumsy and it's pretty predictable, but ultimately the movie is a fun, wild ride with three terrific, charismatic leads carrying it through the rough spots. After all, one person's tired cliché is another's time-honored trope.” –

Old (2021)

“M. Night Shyamalan's psychological thriller successfully evokes an existential sense of dread and ultimate acceptance of human mortality. But it's marred by a jarring final twist that feels so forced, it almost belongs in an entirely different movie.” –

Werewolves Within (2021)

“This warmly satirical horror comedy is a worthy successor to An American Werewolf in London. The talented cast members all possess the skills and onscreen ensemble chemistry to make the script really come alive.” –

The Suicide Squad (2021)

4.5
“This tenth installment in the DCEU is a fast-paced, blood-soaked, wildly irreverent escapade that skillfully balances gore and goofiness, with equal amounts of irreverence and sincerity. Think The Boys pumped up on a steroids.” –

The Green Knight (2021)

4.5
“David Lowery has created a darkly brooding, atmospheric fantasy quest that is as richly textured and layered as the 14th century medieval poem on which it is based.” –

Boss Level (2021)

“Boss Level is not particularly deep, nor is it an innovative twist on the genre. But everyone on-screen is clearly having a blast, and their enthusiasm is contagious, making this film just plain fun to watch.” –

Bliss (2021)

“Which world is real and which is the simulation? Director Mike Cahill opts for ambiguity. His willingness to let the audience soak in the uncertainty makes Bliss Cahill's strongest, most ambitious film to date.” –

A Quiet Place Part II (2021)

“A Quiet Place Part 2 is finally here, and it was well worth the wait. It's a powerful continuation of the original story that retains all the aspects that worked in its predecessor while exploring new themes and character development.” –

Murder Bury Win (2020)
82%
3.5
“Michael Lovan shows an impressive command of pacing, structure, and tone. It certainly won't dislodge 1985's cult classic Clue as the best movie yet made about a board game, but it's very solid indie fare and a lot of fun.” –

Army Of The Dead (2021)

“While Zack Snyder's distinctive directorial style is plainly evident, he has reined in his worst impulses to give us a clever, entertaining twist on the zombie apocalypse, featuring all the flesh-eating carnage one expects from the genre.” –

Fatman (2020)
44%
5
“Despite a scene-stealing Walton Goggins, Fatman doesn't quite succeed tonally. The ultra-dry humor lurks around the edges, in small ornamental details. Overall, the clever concept is better than the execution.” –

Freaky (2020)

“Freaky makes for an entertaining, if familiar-feeling, weekend watch, with great performances from Vince Vaughn and Kathryn Newton. Predictable though it may be, the film ultimately succeeds in mixing horror, humor, and pathos in just the right measures.” –

Wonder Woman 1984 (2020)
58%
6
“While Wonder Woman 1984 still has a bit of the old magic, and its leads all turn in terrific performances, the film is hampered by a frequently nonsensical plot, extraneous showy action sequences, and it's way too heavy-handed with the moralizing.” –

The Dig (2021)
87%
8
“The Dig brings to vivid life the 1939 excavation at Sutton Hoo. It's a quiet, thoughtful film with gorgeous cinematography and fine performances. But it never penetrates below its pretty surface, and that makes it more forgettable than it should be.” –
