THX 1138 (1971) Brett White Every shot in THX 1138 is ambitious, especially for a first-time filmmaker in 1971. The production design is stark, the shot composition is artful—the performances are even soulful.

Primate (2025) John Serba More watchable than it probably deserves to be, Primate is a B-plus movie in a B-minus subgenre.

This is I (2026) John Serba This Is I has plenty of heart, but really needs a judicious editor.

Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair (2006) John Serba The story works just fine as two films, but as a single unified narrative, it’s bigger, grander, a slow burn spiked with violence, comedy and violent comedy, with tangents, references and tangential references.

28 Years Later: The Bone Temple (2026) John Serba The Bone Temple – it has the fire, it has the force.

No Other Choice (2025) John Serba You’re committed to this ride because Park crafts a narrative so dense, so thematically explosive, so darkly comic, you have to watch it all go down. Have to.

Love Me, Love Me (2026) Maddy Casale Ultimately, while I sometimes found myself entertained, it was more in a “so cringe it’s fun” kind of way than because it’s an actually great piece of media.

Sommore: Chandelier Fly (2026) Sean L. McCarthy Her last half-hour proves she’s still a comedy queen, whether it’s finding her own spin on a hot topic or whether it’s turning someone else’s soundbite into her new catchphrase. I just wish the first half of her special were as strong.

Because of Cupid (2026) Liz Kocan Because of Cupid is the perfect fantasy for the fantasy-resistant. It combines a dash of whimsy and magic with a clever and funny script laden with tons of literary and mythology references.

La Grazia (2025) John Serba La Grazia ultimately will be minor Sorrentino, but it still offers enough fodder for the eye and mind to warrant a watch.
Posted Feb 14, 2026  Edit critic review
Eternity (2025) John Serba Two hours in Eternity is more than enough.
Posted Feb 14, 2026  Edit critic review
State of Fear (2026) John Serba State of Fear is trending toward being a deeply underappreciated action film. So appreciate it, dammit!

Tyler Perry's Joe's College Road Trip (2026) John Serba No doubt about it, Tyler Perry’s Joe’s College Road Trip is a Tyler Perry movie.

Katt Williams: The Last Report (2026) Sean L. McCarthy For all of the tough talk from Williams on podcasts and onstage, he’s also equally bold in this hour about wanting to make his audiences feel better about themselves.

B
Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die (2025) Jesse Hassenger Verbinski’s film never errs on the side of moderation and trying to find some bizarre common ground between annihilation and survival.

Marty Supreme (2025) John Serba You’ll loathe Marty but love Marty Supreme.
Posted Feb 11, 2026  Edit critic review
The Way to You (2026) Maddy Casale The Way To You is a breezy, charming, and engaging romantic comedy that is sure to serve up some easy viewing and laughs this Valentine’s season.
Posted Feb 11, 2026  Edit critic review
We Bury the Dead (2024) John Serba Where other actors might be content to half-zombie-shuffle through low-budget films like this for an easy paycheck, Ridley’s commitment to her performance is admirable. We Bury the Dead has modest ambitions, and meets them for the most part.

The Secret Agent (2025) John Serba The Secret Agent is an amazing film from a new master of the form.

Ella McCay (2025) John Serba Ella McKay is not OK.
Posted Feb 06, 2026  Edit critic review
Queen of Chess (2026) John Serba Queen of Chess leaves a few too many rocks unturned to be truly substantive. But as a surface-level summary of Judit’s impressive, inspiring achievements, it works rather well.
Posted Feb 06, 2026  Edit critic review
Relationship Goals (2026) John Serba I’d say Relationship Goals is as subtle as a fart in church.
Posted Feb 06, 2026  Edit critic review
The Muppet Show (2026) Joel Keller It took 45 years, but seeing The Muppet Show back as if it never left is not only comforting and nostalgic, but it’s still really entertaining.
Posted Feb 06, 2026  Edit critic review
The Housemaid (2025) John Serba The Housemaid exists firmly in the not-bad/could-be-better realm. We expected nonsense, and nonsense we got, and appreciators of such will find plenty to gnaw on here.

Copshop (2021) John Serba Copshop is too much fun for too long, so steering anyone away from it would be disingenuous.
Posted Feb 06, 2026  Edit critic review
Missing the Boat (2026) Liz Kocan Missing The Boat‘s silly but smart script elevates a predictable storyline into a movie that’s packed with funny characters, clever dialogue, and winning performances.

Hamnet (2025) John Serba Buckley’s performance feels like an act of possession.

Mo Gilligan: In The Moment (2026) Sean L. McCarthy If you’re not an avid fan of Gilligan’s yet, I’m not sure how much this hour is going to win you over, even if you skip ahead to his closing musical number.

The Strangers: Chapter 2 (2025) John Serba More like The Strangers: Chapter Spew.

Greenland 2: Migration (2026) John Serba Greenland 2 is just greenbland.
Posted Feb 02, 2026  Edit critic review
Zootopia 2 (2025) John Serba The first film struck me as a cut above Just Fine. By comparison, Zootopia 2 is more of a grower, and I can imagine multiple jokes emerging with multiple viewings. This is smart, highly enjoyable stuff.

1/5
Melania (2026) Jesse Hassenger Melania mistakes its subject’s fame for star quality, and mistakes a life of leisure for one of accomplishment and importance, forcing Ratner to create a film that’s all lazy patchwork.

Eleanor the Great (2025) John Serba Eleanor the Great is a well-intentioned miscalculation.

Anaconda (2025) John Serba CGI’s better than ’97 at least. Other than that? Meh.
Posted Jan 29, 2026  Edit critic review
The Wrecking Crew (2026) John Serba The Wrecking Crew hits all its marks, but without a more creatively rigorous approach to classic action-comedy tropes, it quickly gets wearisome.
Posted Jan 29, 2026  Edit critic review
Peter Hujar's Day (2025) John Serba I can objectively say it’s admirable in its form, an experimental film with a highly focused specificity of intent.

Mike Epps: Delusional (2026) Sean L. McCarthy If you only see one Mike Epps stand-up special, make it this one.

Caught by Love (2026) Maddy Casale The most unique and engaging thing about Caught by Love is its stunning shots of Malta. Take that away, and there’s not enough emotional honesty, charm, or plot stakes to set this movie apart from other run-of-the-mill rom-coms.

Gabby's Dollhouse: The Movie (2025) John Serba Gabby’s Dollhouse: The Movie is just fine.
Posted Jan 27, 2026  Edit critic review
Beast of War (2025) John Serba Beast of War is far from groundbreaking, and the story is thin. But it’s also a taut 87 minutes, and offers just enough of a variation on familiar stories to be worth your time.

The Big Fake (2026) John Serba The Big Fake is more period fashion show than intriguing drama.

Cosmic Princess Kaguya! (2026) Maddy Casale While Cosmic Princess Kaguya! is definitely not the most accessible or comprehensible movie for the general viewer, it will likely be a homerun for anyone who falls into its intended target audience.

Mr. Nobody Against Putin (2025) Marshall Shaffer Mr. Nobody Against Putin provides an invaluable look at daily life under Putin’s Russia.

A Big Bold Beautiful Journey (2025) John Serba It’s a testament to the film’s tonal ineffectiveness that I kept wondering why, as Sarah and David allowed themselves to be yanked through this dull, maudlin star-crossed-lover horse-manure story full of cloyingly precious tender moments.
Posted Jan 22, 2026  Edit critic review
Twinless (2025) John Serba Twinless is enough of a rollercoaster that you feel like you’re still on it the day after you watch it. It clung to me like a shroud. It’s not immediately likable, but the more you ponder, the greater its status in the mind.

Kidnapped: Elizabeth Smart (2026) John Serba Kidnapped: Elizabeth Smart is well-meaning, it’s well-done, it’s unexceptional – but it’s also worthwhile.

The SpongeBob Movie: Search for SquarePants (2025) John Serba It takes a bit of intestinal fortitude to make it through Search for SquarePants’ surreal joke barrage. But you’ve probably been acclimated to the SpongeBob waters by now.

Love on the Amazon (2026) Liz Kocan While Love on the Amazon has its moments, there are better versions and variations on this film out there.
Posted Jan 22, 2026  Edit critic review
Rental Family (2025) John Serba Rental Family is a finely crafted melodrama with a strong central performance that nonetheless reeks of unfulfilled potential. Mixed feelings then, but it tugs at our heartstrings in a meaningful enough manner to warrant a mild recommendation.

Song Sung Blue (2025) John Serba Song Sung Blue perfectly channels the mega-cornball showbiz majesty of the hokemeister Diamond himself, who wrote and sang songs that transformed base emotions into grandiose gestures.
