G20 (2025) 58% “Long story short: is G20 good? Not really. Is it fun? Kinda-sorta-sometimes, in a plane movie, no thoughts, head empty, smooth brain way.” – Pajiba Apr 18, 2025 Full Review Disney's Snow White (2025) 40% “Snow White is a nothingburger of a film buried under an avalanche of bluster that, watching the movie itself, feels both utterly absurd and more or less inevitable. ” – Pajiba Mar 26, 2025 Full Review Unstoppable (2024) 76% “Unstoppable, in disappointing contrast to Anthony himself, does not even attempt to rise to the occasion, timidly walking the path most travelled with minimal fanfare. ” – Pajiba Jan 22, 2025 Full Review Small Things Like These (2024) 94% “A quiet, intimate character study, Small Things Like These is about as honest and accurately titled a film as there ever was. Because this film is absolutely small, but not in a bad way.” – Pajiba Dec 2, 2024 Full Review Lonely Planet (2024) 40% “There’s no nuance rewarding the attentive audience, no subtleties to entice repeat viewing. Even Laura Dern, for all her talent and charm, can only do so much with a character and story about as dynamic as reading a phone book.” – Pajiba Oct 18, 2024 Full Review Omni Loop (2024) 83% “To give credit where credit is due, Omni Loop does manage to explore a time travel story from a new angle. Unfortunately, the experience of watching it also suggests that perhaps there is a reason why no one ever explored it previously.” – Pajiba Oct 3, 2024 Full Review Greedy People (2024) 59% “As the title somewhat suggests, everyone in Greedy People sucks, but not enough to where it becomes actually enjoyable to watch most of them suffer.” – Pajiba Aug 30, 2024 Full Review Inside Out 2 (2024) 91% “Inside Out 2 is not a masterpiece, and putting it toe-to-toe against its predecessor would be an ill-matched fight. But it’s an entertaining movie that gets the basics right and pays sufficient homage to the spirit of the original.” – Pajiba Jun 21, 2024 Full Review Atlas (2024) 19% “At best, the mecha action sequences serve as a reminder that, once upon a time, Pacific Rim was a good movie, and two hours of your life might be better spent revisiting that.” – Pajiba May 31, 2024 Full Review The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare (2024) 68% “What’s there is mostly fine, sometimes decent, and occasionally even good-ish -- the real trouble is what isn’t there. The film is rife with a sense of incompleteness; missing tension, missing relationships, missing a sense of fun. ” – Pajiba Apr 29, 2024 Full Review Damsel (2024) 56% “With Damsel, they’ve hit the bullseye of this low-hanging target—a movie fine enough that most people you know will likely at least half-watch it, and bland enough that most of us will have forgotten about it entirely in a month’s time.” – Pajiba Mar 20, 2024 Full Review Lisa Frankenstein (2024) 52% “Lisa Frankenstein plays out like a Disney Channel original movie that wants you to know that it’s not like the other girls; it wants to be subversive, irreverent, edgy, and camp but is far too lazy, and derivative to succeed at being any of those things. ” – Pajiba Feb 16, 2024 Full Review The Holdovers (2023) 97% “In The Holdovers, Payne has managed to maintain that same keen-eyed insight, but without the sense that the film itself is an active participant in the torment. It’s a rare and remarkable balance to hit.” – Pajiba Dec 1, 2023 Full Review TAYLOR SWIFT | THE ERAS TOUR (2023) 99% “Closing your eyes, you do almost feel like you’re there. Not quite, of course -- nothing can fully replicate the real deal -- but there’s little imagination required.” – Pajiba Oct 30, 2023 Full Review Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem (2023) 95% “Mutant Mayhem is an incredibly polished piece of children’s entertainment that takes cues from the best of what’s come before and executes them well. The fresh artistic style provides a facelift to a deeply familiar story. ” – Pajiba Aug 8, 2023 Full Review Oppenheimer (2023) 93% “ Oppenheimer is a refreshing outlier, stunning if severely imperfect; and, ironically enough for its subject matter and bleak outlook, a glimmer of hope. ” – Pajiba Jul 25, 2023 Full Review No Hard Feelings (2023) 70% “Elevated by strong performances and buoyed by the relative dearth of mainstream comedy films these past several years, No Hard Feelings is worth a trip to the theater for Jennifer Lawrence fans and those simply in the mood for a good laugh. ” – Pajiba Jun 29, 2023 Full Review The Blackening (2022) 87% “All things combined, The Blackening is a treat for both horror and comedy fans well worth checking out on the big screen while you can; it’s best with a crowd.” – Pajiba Jun 22, 2023 Full Review The Little Mermaid (2023) 67% “The Little Mermaid is a dank, lethargic cash grab that feels like a glimpse of that bleakest possible future. While David Magee gets credit for the script here, it’s the kind of film that could easily be written by a ChatGPT type program.” – Pajiba May 30, 2023 Full Review Chevalier (2022) 76% “Chevalier brings Joseph Bologne’s story to the big screen in a solidly watchable, if not particularly inspired fashion -- it’s good, but feels like something that, with a bolder creative approach and more balanced script, could have been great.” – Pajiba Apr 27, 2023 Full Review Renfield (2023) 58% “Renfield does not trust the audience to add two plus two, or count. It does not only pre-cut your food for you, but pre-chews it also. Sure, the story could not be easier to digest, but it has also lost all appeal in the process.” – Pajiba Apr 19, 2023 Full Review A Good Person (2023) 57% “An exploration of grief and addiction that can’t decide if it wants to be grounded or melodramatic and ultimately fails to be either, or much of anything at all.” – Pajiba Mar 28, 2023 Full Review Cocaine Bear (2023) 66% “Cocaine Bear is the kind of movie that knows exactly what it is, does that well, and has no pretenses about being anything else.” – Pajiba Feb 27, 2023 Full Review Plane (2023) 79% “Plane is an unattractive but viscerally effective film. There is little here to admire for the eye, absolutely nothing for the brain, but plenty to appeal to the id.” – Pajiba Jan 17, 2023 Full Review Emancipation (2022) 45% “The requirements of the story being told here and Fuqua’s filmmaking sensibilities get along about as well as two trains on the same track heading in opposite directions. ” – Pajiba Dec 14, 2022 Full Review
