Opus (2025)
41%
B

The Substance (2024)

B-
“Coralie Fargeat must not subscribe to the saying, “less is more,” and this film is evidence of it. She throws everything she has at her characters, Sue and Elisabeth. The result is an outlandish, gory, and comical end to Fargeat’s treatise on vanity. ” –

“It says something about the film industry when just having an original story is enough to get people in seats, let alone with the resumé of Gareth Edwards and Chris Weitz to back it up.” –

A-
“ I am still trying to conclusively figure out Deadland’s meaning and how events related to each other, but that is not necessarily a negative element of it. I’m still thinking about what happened, and that, in my opinion, is a hallmark of a good film.” –

B
“ Honor Among Thieves is a good time, just not the ultimate comedic fantasy film that fans are maybe expecting it to be, and that is still a pretty good time spent in the theatre with one “stellar” cameo.” –
