1/5
Balls Up (2026) Will Hume Balls Up is exactly the kind of workable Hollywood premise that back in the day would be reserved for D-List actors like Pauly Shore or one of Adam Sandler’s buddies.

3.5/5
Lorne (2026) Robert Kojder It’s another documentary from Morgan Neville that finds a clever way into studying the subject befitting of who they are and what they are known for

3/5
Lee Cronin's The Mummy (2026) Robert Kojder It’s overlong and overly ambitious, but when the filmmaker is doing what he is best at, which is impersonating Sam Raimi, no easy feat to begin with, it’s a cruel delight

4/5
Blue Heron (2025) Robert Kojder With two distinct halves for past and present, Blue Heron is a truly original work that takes the exploration of a condition and a child’s initial experiences around it into something profound regarding memory, time, sibling bonds, and systemic failings

3/5
Mile End Kicks (2025) Robert Kojder A coming-of-age story told through the scene of aspiring indie rock music journalism, writer/director Chandler Levack’s Mile End Kicks confidently rolls with inside baseball storytelling without alienating outsiders

3.5/5
Wasteman (2025) Robert Kojder This is fiction with a dash of documentary, each with bracing importance. It’s enough to ensure the film doesn’t go to waste for its minor shortcomings

2.5/5
Normal (2025) Robert Kojder There are countless abnormal ideas thrown at the wall in Normal; few of them stick, hurting the momentum, urgency, and excitement of the action beats in the process

2/5
Erupcja (2025) Robert Kojder There are no sparks in this romance, let alone an eruption, a metaphor too obvious and simplistic to maintain investment, even at the scant 71-minute run time here

4/5
Departures (2025) Robert W. Monk With genuine emotion, authentic break-ups, and fantastic fun, this is a film that will likely be treasured by both the gay community and beyond.

Thrash (2026) Robert Kojder Thrash is barely 80 minutes of confident absurdity

2/5
You, Me & Tuscany (2026) Robert Kojder Tuscany is the only worthwhile character here

2/5
Outcome (2026) Robert Kojder Everything in Outcome either feels a bit too forced, misguided, uneven in tone, flailing humor, or narratively lost, wasting the meta aspects until one no longer cares about the outcome

2.5/5
Hamlet (2025) Robert Kojder The filmmakers themselves are somewhere between a straight remake and a re-imagination, having apparently not asked themselves what to be or not to be

3.5/5
Exit 8 (2025) Robert Kojder Exit 8 successfully immerses the viewer in a gameplay loop through a film, while capitalizing on its guilt-driven premise for some unsettling psychological freak-outs

3.5/5
The Christophers (2025) Robert Kojder The performances, alongside what the film has to say about art and what it wants to leave viewers thinking about, make that circular storytelling and this minor Steven Soderbergh effort worthwhile
Posted Apr 08, 2026  Edit critic review
3.5/5
Faces of Death (2026) Robert Kojder Smartly, the serial killer film isn’t using that meta-textual aspect solely to earn some points with fans, but more so as a plot device and vessel to explore the current state of Internet horrors and psychological effects of its consumption
Posted Apr 07, 2026  Edit critic review
3.5/5
The Drama (2026) Robert Kojder This absorbing, darkly funny film seems to exist to challenge the limits of empathy. It makes for multi-layered characters and drama worth revisiting
Posted Mar 31, 2026  Edit critic review
The Super Mario Galaxy Movie (2026) EJ Moreno Like the MCU in its heyday, the Super Mario sequel nails its world building and lore expansion. It’s over-the-top, fun, and so very Nintendo!
Posted Mar 31, 2026  Edit critic review
2/5
The Super Mario Galaxy Movie (2026) Robert Kojder It all becomes too much, amounting to nothing more than nostalgic noise and chaos with no real effort into doing anything with the five or six new characters, let alone the existing plumbing brothers duo of Mario and Luigi
Posted Mar 31, 2026  Edit critic review
3.5/5
Marc by Sofia (2025) Robert Kojder In what amounts to an enlightening Iteration of artists on artists, Marc Jacobs and Sofia Coppola have candid discussions about the fear of putting any new art into the world, which is more than enough to relate to
Posted Mar 27, 2026  Edit critic review
4/5
Our Hero, Balthazar (2025) Robert Kojder A harrowing take on male loneliness, terminal online social-media brainrot, faux activism, and fractured family relations. It’s an invitation to laugh and be horrified equally

3/5
Forbidden Fruits (2026) Robert Kojder The bold social commentary is sharp, but Forbidden Fruits does get away from Meredith Alloway, who has otherwise crafted an appropriately cruel and devilishly fun takedown of performative culture

You're Dating a Narcissist! (2025) Robert Kojder This film is more obnoxious than anything

3/5
Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice (2026) Robert Kojder For all that clunky comedy, there is unquestionable inventiveness and a spirited sense of fun to Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice, a mashup of gangster goons and time-traveling antics that results in several stylish action sequences

4/5
The Caretaker (2025) Robert W. Monk The Caretaker is a well-executed walk down a weird path to take in obsession, greed, and the mistreatment of others for reasons that they cannot possibly help

2/5
Mile End Kicks (2025) Will Hume Chandler Levack follows up I Like Movies by swapping cinephile nostalgia for music nostalgia, but keeps many of the same weaknesses—only now they feel intentional rather than accidental.
Posted Mar 26, 2026  Edit critic review
2/5
They Will Kill You (2026) Robert Kojder The more co-writer/director Kirill Sokolov’s They Will Kill You reveals about itself, the more tired and deflating it becomes. Most unfortunate here is that nearly everything is revealed roughly 20 minutes in

3/5
The AI Doc: Or How I Became an Apocaloptimist (2026) Robert Kojder The AI Doc: Or How I Became an Apocaloptimist functions as a primer on the phenomenon for those who haven’t bothered to look into either the theorized doom or endlessly (and skeptically) positive possibilities

Pretty Lethal (2026) Robert Kojder It can’t even settle on a consistent tone for the dull fight scenes

Ready or Not 2: Here I Come (2026) Robert Kojder Once uproariously awesome... the efforts to expand the universe fall flat; whatever enthusiasm there was for more should now be radio silent

2.5/5
Tow (2025) Robert Kojder Despite those good intentions, it’s difficult to shake the feeling that this is frothy Hollywood homelessness cosplay with mostly feel-good storytelling

3/5
The Gates (2026) Robert Kojder The taut thriller also spends considerable time fleshing out their differences (all three men deliver effective turns, notably during these heated exchanges)

4/5
The Howling (1981) Amie Cranswick Despite the fun you can have watching The Howling it is still quite a dark and surprisingly serious movie.

1/5
RoboCop 3 (1993) Brad Cook Rather than end on a “This could have been really good, but we’re settling for barely adequate here” note, now-defunct Orion Pictures went with “Let’s hammer this thing into the ground and leave everyone with a bad taste in their mouths.”

4/5
Project Hail Mary (2026) Robert Kojder With huge spirit and spectacle, above all else, this is a powerful story about the bravery and courage a strong friendship can instill in any of us, even in the most epic and highest-stakes times

2.5.5
undertone (2025) Robert Kojder That soundscape erupts into an all-out, chaotic, cacophonous, nightmarish freakout in the final 15 minutes, which doesn’t necessarily amount to anything from a narrative perspective but is nonetheless almost enough to recommend undertone

Reminders of Him (2026) Robert Kojder These are characters stuck reaching for depth far out of grasp in a hollow romance

2.5/5
Slanted (2025) Robert Kojder It’s a film that wants to be about racism, culture, and beauty, but it is consistently undercut by being more about tropey teenage selfishness and vanity
Posted Mar 11, 2026  Edit critic review
Project Hail Mary (2026) EJ Moreno A flawless space epic. Ryan Gosling is the leading man superstar he was born to be.

2/5
RoboCop 2 (1990) Brad Cook The clunky effects leave much to be desired. Other sequences miss the mark too, although Kershner does engage in some nice character building when RoboCop can’t resist visiting the neighborhood where his ex-wife and son live.

3.5/5
War Machine (2026) Robert Kojder War Machine is Predator, but with a Metal Gear racing through the woods. It is something anyone familiar with both of these IPs will likely realize they never knew they wanted until now

3/5
Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man (2026) Robert Kojder A slight but thrilling family crime drama, Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man finds a middle ground between standalone story and clean up for those who invested in the show

2/5
Protector (2025) Robert Kojder This is a confused film that takes a tasteless turn, nonetheless marginally salvaged by an intense, savagely violent performance by Milla Jovovich

3.5/5
Heel (The Good Boy) (2025) Robert Kojder With complex morals and an inhumane social experiment, Heel is a quietly deranged, thought-provoking take on captivity

THE BRIDE! (2026) Robert Kojder Undeniably audacious to a fault, by the end, The Bride! has become its own Frankensteinian misfire

4/5
Hoppers (2026) Robert Kojder Hoppers hops high into the upper tiers of Pixar with stunning animation, layered yet fittingly fun animal world-building, and emotionally heavy story of a young woman not only fighting for what she believes in, but carrying on the spirit of her grandma

Dolly (2025) Robert Kojder As lifeless as an actual doll (even if there is plenty of gore to go around)
Posted Mar 03, 2026  Edit critic review
Bodycam (2025) EJ Moreno Easily the best found footage film of the decade. In a genre that's become hard to make thrilling, this packs one horrifying punch.

Scream 7 (2026) Robert Kojder Scream 7 is disappointingly straightforward. It’s time to stab this franchise to death

3/5
K-Pops! (2024) Robert Kojder It’s too broad in terms of K-Pop as a cultural phenomenon of the moment, but BJ’s character growth, the celebration of music across generations, and a family repaired make K-Pops! Pop just enough
