Scream 7 (2026) 31% EDIT “It may have taken 30 years for Williamson to finally get to steer his own ship, but with Scream 7 it proves well worth the wait. Fans will approve.” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Feb 26, 2026 Full Review Jane Austen's Period Drama (2024) EDIT “Jane Austen’s Period Drama is entertaining enough but basically a one-joke premise telegraphed by the cute title.” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Feb 24, 2026 Full Review Butcher's Stain (2025) EDIT “Meyer Levinson-Blount’s compelling Butcher’s Stain feels a bit unremarkable until we really see where this is going, a subtle comment on the fraught tensions in the Middle East but played on a simple human level.” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Feb 24, 2026 Full Review A Friend of Dorothy (2025) EDIT “Margolyes is an acting treasure, but then we knew that didn’t we? She is perfectly matched with the promising Nwachukwu, who makes a strong impression against a true pro here. It’s a charmer. ” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Feb 24, 2026 Full Review The Singers (2025) EDIT “Ultimately, The Singers lifts our spirits with hope for humanity and the common good in life.” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Feb 24, 2026 Full Review Children No More: Were and Are Gone (2025) EDIT “The film is by design quite repetitive as the number of protesters grows significantly day to day, in increasingly huge numbers, and that is where it gains its power. ” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Feb 24, 2026 Full Review All the Empty Rooms (2025) EDIT “This 33-minute documentary is not just a portrait of the children lost but also of the reporter determined to use his camera and voice to make sure they are never forgotten.” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Feb 24, 2026 Full Review Armed Only With a Camera: The Life and Death of Brent Renaud (2025) EDIT “This engrossing film takes us all the way from Brent’s life journey to his open coffin and final resting place at home in Arkansas. In doing so it reminds us of the cost for journalists out on the front lines getting it all on camera.” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Feb 24, 2026 Full Review The Devil Is Busy (2024) EDIT “The Devil Is Busy gains its enormous worth by taking a massive national issue and humanizing it in the bleakest of ways. ” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Feb 24, 2026 Full Review Perfectly a Strangeness (2024) EDIT “You don’t question it, you don’t try to analyze it, you don’t try even to understand it. You just go with it.” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Feb 24, 2026 Full Review Butterfly (2024) EDIT “Unquestionably the most beautifully animated of the bunch, this is also the most dramatic in its telling, with warnings that it may not be appropriate for younger viewers.” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Feb 24, 2026 Full Review Retirement Plan (2024) EDIT “Gleeson is wonderful in his voice-over performance with a witty script of possibilities provided by Kelly and co-writer Tara Lawall. This is a gem with simple but clever animation detailing all that life has to offer, or so we think.” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Feb 24, 2026 Full Review The Girl Who Cried Pearls (2025) EDIT “[A] beautifully designed work with superb puppetry from past Oscar nominees Chris Lavis and Maciek Szczerbowski, and exceptional storybook-style narration from Colm Feore.” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Feb 24, 2026 Full Review Forevergreen (2025) EDIT “A delightful and poignant 13-minute short from writer-directors Nathan Engelhardt and Jeremy Spears, with exceptional production design also from the latter.” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Feb 24, 2026 Full Review Two People Exchanging Saliva (2024) EDIT “Natalie Musteata and Alexandre Singh direct and write the wildly inventive and certainly different 36-minute short that has more on its mind than is plainly evident. ” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Feb 24, 2026 Full Review I Can Only Imagine 2 (2026) 63% EDIT “It is Ventimiglio who steals the film lock stock and barrel as the affable and relatable Timmons whose strong beliefs and the “X” he draws daily on his pulse serve as the truly inspiring part of this story.” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Feb 17, 2026 Full Review At the Sea (2026) 35% EDIT “This latest English-language production for Mundruczó is sadly a miss... This time, even with a talent like Adams at the helm, he can’t seem to get around a very familiar kind of melodrama Hollywood did so much better in the ’50s.” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Feb 17, 2026 Full Review Mouse (2026) 100% EDIT “I cannot say enough about the performance of Mallen-Kupferer, who is perfectly cast and will simply break your heart.” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Feb 14, 2026 Full Review GOAT (2026) 82% EDIT “Sony Pictures Animation continues to rewrite the rules for ‘toons and serves up another imaginative and game-changing winner with GOAT, a fun and visually stunning animated feature.” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Feb 9, 2026 Full Review Solo Mio (2026) 83% EDIT “The luscious Roman scenery, very rich Italian music and likable cast make this an increasingly rare theatrical entry for the older audience often overlooked outside of streaming.” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Feb 5, 2026 Full Review Melania (2026) 11% EDIT “A movie whose release is off-key with so much wrong in this country and this world in the year that has passed since it was shot. "Melania" seems a little too rich for these times.” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Feb 2, 2026 Full Review Shelter (2026) 64% EDIT “When you see Jason Statham starring in a one-word title you know exactly what kind of movie you are going to get, and his latest, Shelter, is right on brand.” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Jan 28, 2026 Full Review See You When I See You (2026) 71% EDIT “This is a family looking for closure who can’t agree on how to get there. Ultimately, Cayton-Holland’s smart screenplay, an outstanding cast and the sensitive direction of Duplass show us the way.” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Jan 28, 2026 Full Review Fing! (2026) EDIT “Director Jeffrey Walker oversees a first-rate production that has created a lushly appointed fantastical world come alive on the screen, and that includes the visual effects puppetry magic in producing the Fing himself.” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Jan 27, 2026 Full Review The Weight (2026) 94% EDIT “This proves to be the gritty kind of story that is perfect for a revival, and it also marks yet another high point in the career of Ethan Hawke.” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Jan 27, 2026 Full Review
