Tin Soldier (2025) John Serba Tin Soldier yearns to be a badass weave, but it’s just a mangy merkin.

Boys Go to Jupiter (2024) John Serba Cheers to Glander for marching to his own beat, but for me – a Gen-Xer who just ain’t feeling it – Boys Go to Jupiter is a near-miss.

In the Blink of an Eye (2026) John Serba When the film itself unwittingly tumbles into its own vast logical crevasses, well, it’s a lost cause.

The Swedish Connection (2026) John Serba Gosta Engzell may not have the fame of Oskar Schindler, but his story is still worth telling.

Pavane (2026) John Serba This long slow dance goes nowhere.

Romance at Hope Ranch (2026) Maddy Casale The gorgeous New Mexico landscapes, majestic horses, decent romantic chemistry, and committed performances from the cast make this an overall pleasant experience for some entertaining, easy viewing.

Paul McCartney: Man on the Run (2025) Johnny Loftus Visually and aurally, Man on the Run is packed with 1970s vibes. And If you’re a Wings head, you’re home. It’s also a solid survey of where Paul McCartney was, philosophically and emotionally, as he publicly traversed his post-Beatles chapter.

Father Mother Sister Brother (2025) John Serba Of course, Jarmusch avoids any emotion that’s too grand or melodramatic – closure ain’t his thing. Whether you’re moved by Father Mother Sister Brother or merely puzzled by the filmmaker’s rumination on the ties that bind depends on your own baggage.

Good Fortune (2025) John Serba Good Fortune ain’t half bad.

Is This Thing On? (2025) John Serba Is This Thing On? is the least of Cooper’s directorial efforts. But we haven’t seen Arnett capital-A Act quite like this before, and he shows significant depth playing against type.

The Bluff (2026) John Serba The Bluff is totally passable. No need to throw it in the brig. Or make it walk the plank. Or schedule it a trip to Davy Jones’ Locker.

The Astronaut (2025) John Serba Send The Astronaut to Alpha Centauri.

Dead of Winter (2025) John Serba Thompson and Greer give Dead of Winter plenty of life.

East of Wall (2025) John Serba East of Wall is engrossing in its authenticity.

Taylor Tomlinson: Prodigal Daughter (2026) Sean L. McCarthy Although she filmed this hour in a church, she only fully realizes the potential of her setting in her closing routine. But she continues to be a winning voice for her generation, no matter what religious background you may be coming to her from.

Chris Fleming: Live at the Palace (2026) Sean L. McCarthy It’s gratifying to see Chris Fleming stay true to the vision he had starting out in stand-up two decades ago and be richly rewarded for it. Strap in and enjoy the ride!

Firebreak (2026) John Serba Firebreak drove me crazy.
Posted Feb 24, 2026  Edit critic review
The Orphans (2025) John Serba The Orphans gets in, makes a mess and gets out in a reasonably entertaining fashion.
Posted Feb 24, 2026  Edit critic review
The Stars Between Us (2026) Maddy Casale Despite its unique eclipse romance concept, The Stars Between Us is ultimately weighed down by its underdeveloped central romance and consistent commitment to telling rather than showing.
Posted Feb 24, 2026  Edit critic review
Urchin (2025) John Serba Too bad Dickinson is tied up for a while playing John Lennon in four Beatles movies – his skill and talent behind the camera are significant. Patience, then, for his next directorial effort.
Posted Feb 24, 2026  Edit critic review
A Father's Miracle (2026) John Serba For a movie that exerts considerable effort to be visually and texturally realistic, and that drops harsh modern political realities into the story to amplify the stakes, the screenplay is remarkably shoddy.
Posted Feb 24, 2026  Edit critic review
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.
Posted Feb 19, 2026  Edit critic review
Primate (2025) John Serba More watchable than it probably deserves to be, Primate is a B-plus movie in a B-minus subgenre.
Posted Feb 18, 2026  Edit critic review
This is I (2026) John Serba This Is I has plenty of heart, but really needs a judicious editor.
Posted Feb 18, 2026  Edit critic review
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.
Posted Feb 18, 2026  Edit critic review
28 Years Later: The Bone Temple (2026) John Serba The Bone Temple – it has the fire, it has the force.
Posted Feb 18, 2026  Edit critic review
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.
Posted Feb 18, 2026  Edit critic review
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.
Posted Feb 18, 2026  Edit critic review
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.
Posted Feb 18, 2026  Edit critic review
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.
Posted Feb 14, 2026  Edit critic review
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.
Posted Feb 14, 2026  Edit critic review
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.

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.

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.
