Nonnas (2025)

4/5
“With cinematographer Florian Ballhaus, Chbosky makes the food the real star of the movie. There’s a lot of ceiling-mounted camera work, and close-ups of various dishes being prepared, all guaranteed to make your mouth water profusely. Prepare to be wowed.” –

Fight or Flight (2024)
77%
3.5/5
“I’ll be the first to admit that “Flight” is highly derivative. Being derivative doesn’t necessarily mean bad, but merely unoriginal. I can handle both derivative and unoriginal if it’s done right, and “Flight” gets a great deal right.” –

Another Simple Favor (2025)

4/5
“As with the first, the sequel ends in a manner that offers some degree of closure, yet leaves the door wide open for a third and final, installment. Neither of them will change your life but will entertain you and justify your emotional investment. ” –

The Surfer (2024)
86%
4/5
““The Surfer” isn’t a movie for all or most tastes. It’s blunt, raw, in your face, and unforgiving. It’s also strangely cathartic and freeing. Sometimes one has to be broken in order to feel whole and complete.” –

Drop (2025)
84%
3/5
“Despite the gaping holes in the plot, “Drop” is surprisingly entertaining. It’s not suspenseful or gripping, just entertaining in a popcorn movie sort of way. It’s Hitchcock-lite, in other words, DePalma or Scorsese by way of Michael Bay or Brett Ratner.” –

The King of Kings (2025)

4.5/5
“Seong-ho includes almost every major event in Christ’s life and teachings without rushing, condensing, or turning them into a bullet-point presentation. What makes Kings so different, special, and infinitely watchable is the wholly original presentation.” –

““The Life List” won’t change your life but neither will it feel like a waste of time. It’s not great, but it’s good enough in a pinch. You could easily do worse.” –

The Friend (2024)

5/5
“Even when not physically present, Murray’s Walter leans heavily into the margins of the entire film. An extended fantasy scene late in the third act between Murray and Watts greatly underscores his effortless gravitas. ” –

Novocaine (2025)
81%
3/5
“The big issue isn’t with the premise or the acting, or with the totally out-of-left-field, mind-bending plot twist that shows up midway through the third act. The movie is simply too long and is guilty of piling-on, something that almost ruined it for me.” –

Mickey 17 (2025)

4.5/5
“The pairing of Pattinson and Bong at this point in time is a perfect cinematic storm. Pattinson is looking for that sweet spot between art and commerce. Bong is trying to deliver a follow-up to a unexpected critical and commercial hit, without repetition.” –

Brothers After War (2023)
4/5
“It’s impossible for anyone who is not a veteran to fully comprehend just how taxing living through wartime is, and that is ultimately Rademacher's mission here. This is a throbbing raw nerve of a movie that pulls no punches and contains no easy answers.” –

“The chemistry between Waltz and Hoffman is formidable and generally impressive. It’s unlikely that Hoffman will ever reach the performance heights achieved by his late father (Philip Seymour Hoffman), but he more than holds his own here.” –

“[Director] Aitken adroitly weaves the flower passages throughout the entirely of the film, which results in something oddly alluring, hypnotic, and calming. As informative as the movie’s content is, the stylistic narrative is equally enthralling. ” –

“While “Homestead” isn’t my favorite Angel movie (that would be “Cabrini”), it’s not my least favorite (“Sight”), either. Quality aside, I respect Angel for taking risks by expanding its artistic reach outside of the relatively safe faith and family genre.” –

“In “Carry-On,” Egerton all but channels Bruce Willis in “Die Hard” (minus the smirking). It shouldn’t surprise anyone that the movie ends in a manner which suggests a possible sequel. As much as my heart would like see that, my head says: “Please, don’t.”” –

“This movie doesn’t suffer from nepotism, but rather from a fumbled stage-to-screen transfer. If not for the stellar performance of Deadwyler, I would give the movie a slightly negative review. Because she is so good, I’m going marginally positive.” –
