“Hsu frames the biggest action sequences as reality competition shows or prank shows, giving the whole movie an agreeably light, goofy tone that operates at breakneck speed. He steers hard into the comedy side of horror-comedy, but pours on the fake blood.” –

Ne Zha 2 (2025)

82/100
“It’s a lot to take in, but it’s joyously and creatively rendered, a fantasy epic brought to life in vivid color and with all the visual creativity a fantasy fan could want — puke jokes aside. It's an epic-sized tale designed for an epic-sized screen.” –

“There are a few stunning fight sequences in the movie — manic, all-out battles that recall Bullet Train, or some of the later, goofier John Wick movies. But all the scenes stitching the fights together are a drag.” –

“The whole film drips with lurid avidity. Nudity is almost as common as arterial sprays, and both are depicted with Kawajiri's typical bravura. ” –

Better Man (2024)

89/100
“While the movie is drawn from Robbie Williams’ life, it’s better to think of it as a fantasy feature. Michael Gracey plays with image and emotion over facts, telling a story through bold, expressive, visually startling sequences.

The Ghost and the Darkness (1996)

82/100
“Overlooked and underrated over the years. But in an era that appreciates pulp cinema for its own gleefully cheesy values, Ghost and the Darkness represents a fairly unique marriage between lowbrow creature feature and highbrow historical epic.” –

Beetlejuice Beetlejuice (2024)

1.5/5
“It’s another tick mark on the seemingly endless list of 2020s franchise installments that serve as belated victory laps for past comic triumphs, while blunting what was unique about those triumphs. But on its own, it isn’t much of a movie.” –

Blink Twice (2024)

76/100
“Its statements about gender, violence, trauma, and entitlement are blaring and blatant, with little room for ambiguity or interpretation. And that absolutely seems to be the movie’s primary point.” –

Boy Kills World (2023)
58%
65/100
“Silly and surfacey, with world-building that’s little more than an apathetic shrug, and a plot that’s largely an excuse for creatively staged fights that range from dopey humor to surreal mind game to a final, surprisingly serious battle.” –

83/100
“In spite of the guilty voyeuristic lure of a naked guy who doesn’t know he’s being filmed, the wacky framing, and the big, bright uplift of the ending, this movie is as frightening as any of the doomsaying docs of the last few decades.” –

Under Paris (2024)
63%
42/100
“One of the most substantive of the many aquatic-attack horror movies that have tried to coast along in the wake of Steven Spielberg’s Jaws… But when the inevitable bloodbath starts, Under Paris seems to be cribbing from much messier shark attack movies.” –

The Watchers (2024)

67/100
“Anyone who goes in with the wrong expectations will probably just find The Watchers baffling. It has its share of creepy moments, rising tension, and sudden-blast-of-music jump scares, but as a suspense story, it fizzles out surprisingly early.” –

The Imaginary (2023)

74/100
“The Imaginary isn’t as visually or narratively rich as Studio Ponoc's previous film, or as transcendent as Miyazaki's Boy and the Heron. But it does feel like a move in the right direction for Ponoc, an effort at finding its own voice and its own footing.” –

“Once the film settles into a fairly standard chase-and-fight movie, its lack of character depth or nuance limits what the filmmakers can do to make this story stand out from all the past projects it echoes.” –
