The Choral (2025) 68% 4/5 EDIT “All the audience here has to do is sit back, relax, and listen. A pleasant time stands still for two hours. ” – Phantom Tollbooth Feb 24, 2026 Full Review Nuremberg (2025) 72% 4/5 EDIT “The acting in "Nuremberg" is quite good from Russell Crowe's narcissist Herman Goring to Rami Malek's inquisitive Kelley. ” – Phantom Tollbooth Feb 2, 2026 Full Review Ella McCay (2025) 24% 3/5 EDIT “Ella McCay takes a poke at politics and though set almost twenty years ago, rings a bell in today’s political world.” – Phantom Tollbooth Feb 2, 2026 Full Review David (2025) 78% 4/5 EDIT “Mixing humor with animals who have their own skills, to having courage with a capital “C” gives “David” a high rating.” – Phantom Tollbooth Jan 6, 2026 Full Review Rental Family (2025) 87% 4/5 EDIT “The real center of ‘Rental Family” is Brendan Fraser who, with a gentle touch and smile, wends his way through the assignments given him and brings warmth to the characters in the film and to the audience.” – Phantom Tollbooth Dec 24, 2025 Full Review Vindication Swim (2024) 4/5 EDIT “All in all, “Vindication Swim” is remarkable in showing endurance, fortitude, and friends that are.” – Phantom Tollbooth Dec 11, 2025 Full Review Good Boy (2025) 90% 4/5 EDIT “Good Boy tells a story through eyes and physical action, including tails and paws. ” – Phantom Tollbooth Dec 1, 2025 Full Review Boxcutter (2024) 100% 3/5 EDIT “The music is top notch and Cinematographer James Klopko brings Toronto alive. It can be a city of many things, but the main idea here is hope.” – Phantom Tollbooth Nov 14, 2025 Full Review The French Italian (2024) 67% 3/5 EDIT “The French Italian ends up being a humorous look into apartment living, what one has to put up with and how not caring about other neighbors can lead to situations.” – Phantom Tollbooth Nov 12, 2025 Full Review Dead of Winter (2025) 76% 3/5 EDIT “The unexpected is just around the corner and the actors, though in a cold and icy environment, do a superb job. Acting plus scenery plus music equals an unexpected thriller.” – Phantom Tollbooth Oct 28, 2025 Full Review Roofman (2025) 87% 3/5 EDIT “Channing Tatum makes the most of it, whether by himself, or with Dinklage, they are quite the duo. ” – Phantom Tollbooth Oct 13, 2025 Full Review My Sunshine (2024) 88% 4/5 EDIT “A story of growing up within the spotlight of sports and what decisions must be made.” – Phantom Tollbooth Sep 24, 2025 Full Review Sketch (2024) 95% 4/5 EDIT “Sketch is a kind of science fiction with a heart, even though the heart may have mischief and be as tall as a building.” – Phantom Tollbooth Sep 9, 2025 Full Review Jurassic World Rebirth (2025) 50% 3/5 EDIT “So, in the final count this is a good-enough prehistoric-meets-modern day to keep the box office happy and acting is fine. ” – Phantom Tollbooth Aug 14, 2025 Full Review Heads of State (2025) 68% 3/5 EDIT “Heads of State is a rather tongue-in-cheek action comedy combining a champion wrestler who is also an actor, and a Handsomest Man contest winner who is a major film star. ” – Phantom Tollbooth Aug 6, 2025 Full Review Sally (2025) 88% 4/5 EDIT “In this documentary, partly narrated by Tam O’Shaughnessy, the life of Sally Ride is open to the public.” – Phantom Tollbooth Jul 23, 2025 Full Review How to Train Your Dragon (2025) 77% 4/5 EDIT “The actors do their parts well and blend in as either anxious adults or growing-up-too-fast teenagers. ” – Phantom Tollbooth Jul 14, 2025 Full Review Friendship (2024) 88% 2/5 EDIT “This is a wild ride that slowly coasts to a halt.” – Phantom Tollbooth Jun 27, 2025 Full Review The Last Rodeo (2025) 69% EDIT “Having faith in what one is doing is the center of this film. This tugs at the heart strings. ” – Phantom Tollbooth Jun 16, 2025 Full Review Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning (2025) 80% 4/5 EDIT “From beginning to end, “Mission Impossible – The Final Reckoning” is on full charge. ” – Phantom Tollbooth May 29, 2025 Full Review Clown in a Cornfield (2025) 74% 3/5 EDIT “All in all, “Clown in the Cornfield” is reminiscent of television’s “Buffy” in that the unusual is considered normal and the audience never knows what to expect. ” – Phantom Tollbooth May 21, 2025 Full Review The Accountant 2 (2025) 75% 3/5 EDIT “Watching Affleck and Bernthal work together is like a hamburger and fries. Two separate entities, but they go together. ” – Phantom Tollbooth May 6, 2025 Full Review The Friend (2024) 84% 4/5 EDIT “The dog is really the heart of the film, and Naomi Watts and Apollo blend into an acting team. ” – Phantom Tollbooth Apr 24, 2025 Full Review A Working Man (2025) 47% 3/5 EDIT ““A Working Man” pulls together better than the usual snatch-and-grab-for-ransom films. ” – Phantom Tollbooth Apr 14, 2025 Full Review Kung Fu Rookie (2024) 3/5 EDIT “So, martial arts fans, here is the film for you--- a first-rate action film from Kazakhstan.” – Phantom Tollbooth Apr 7, 2025 Full Review
