A ★★★½ review of Die My Love (2025)
Die, My Love is a striking visual experience, but its heavy lean into the fantastical—constantly blurring reality and fiction through an intentionally unreliable perspective—comes at the expense of dr...

A ★½ review of The Mastermind (2025)
I’m not inclined to take cheap shots at something so clearly made with intention and confidence, but The Mastermind is just nowhere near my proverbial cup of tea. Josh O’Connor is very deliberately do...

A ★★½ review of Sorry, Baby (2025)
I might have winced a bit at some of the tonal shifts here, though to its credit, the film pulls off a fairly delicate balance for most of its runtime. It leans into its comedic instincts a little clu...

A ★★★★ review of Wake Up Dead Man (2025)
I liked this quite a bit. The ensemble is predictably excellent, and Daniel Craig’s Foghorn Leghorn–inflected Hercule Poirot shtick remains a delight. Josh O’Connor is very good here, though it took m...

A ★★ review of Caught Stealing (2025)
There’s really not much to latch onto here. Caught Stealing is campy, sensationalist schlock built on worn-out beats and odd narrative choices that make the whole thing feel flimsy. It’s a standard, e...

A ★★★★ review of Zootopia 2 (2025)
Maybe it was partly the group I saw this with, but I’ll remember this screening pretty fondly. The movie’s genuinely charming and consistently funny—a high-voltage, joke-stuffed blast that mostly work...

A ★½ review of Wicked: For Good (2025)
The more distance I get from this movie, the more I’m convinced it’s nonsense. Everything feels slapped together or shoved in for cheap fan-service, like the filmmakers were terrified to make a real c...

A ★½ review of After the Hunt (2025)
I honestly don’t know what this movie is trying to say beyond stirring the pot just to say it did. It’s so wrapped up in its own fixation on conflict that it completely loses the thread—any hint of th...

A ★★½ review of Frankenstein (2025)
There are flashes of something great here—mostly in the production design and in Jacob Elordi’s wild, almost shocking transformation—but the movie just drags. Those first ten minutes promise a version...

A ★½ review of Keeper (2025)
I’ve always felt like Perkins has these little sparks of brilliance in him, but he never quite pulls everything together. And honestly, this might be my least favorite of his so far—and I’ve been foll...

A ★★★½ review of Predator: Badlands (2025)
Shoot. I wanted to like this so much more. Don’t get me wrong—it’s good—but it falters just enough to dull the edge of what could’ve been a great thriller. By the end, it feels a bit too safe and stra...

A ★★★½ review of Bugonia (2025)
I think this is a deceptively simple film. For all its theatrics, showy performances, and bombast, it’s built on a very straightforward structure that unfolds along a fairly predictable arc. The endin...

A ★★★★ review of Skinamarink (2022)
I still think this is an endlessly fascinating film, and I really admire how avant-garde and gutsy it is—swinging for the fences on such a shoestring budget. I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything quit...

A ★★½ review of Frankenweenie (2012)
Sure, this is cute, wholesome, and tugs at the heartstrings, but beyond that, it doesn’t amount to much more than a genre pastiche that leans heavily on Burton’s trademark aesthetic. I did enjoy it, t...

A ★★★★ review of The Menu (2022)
There’s so much allegorical subtext and evocative imagery here that I’m not sure it all holds up under strict scrutiny by the end. Still, the core concept, while a bit heavy-handed in execution, is th...

A ★★★½ review of A House of Dynamite (2025)
The first act of A House of Dynamite might be one of the most thrilling, nerve-wracking stretches of cinema I’ve seen on Netflix. I was completely locked in—the tension is electric, the dialogue crack...

I don’t think I’ve seen this since it first came out—aside from the clips that circulate endlessly online for watch-bait. While it’s undeniably a product of its time (and some of the dialogue and them...

A ★★★★ review of Monsters, Inc. (2001)
I never realized just how much of this film’s subtext is about unsubstantiated fear of the “other”—that self-perpetuated paranoia about an “out” group that doesn’t share similar traits, yet is entirel...

A ★★★ review of Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory (1971)
Call it recency bias, but I genuinely prefer Johnny Depp’s take on Wonka over Gene Wilder’s. I know, sacrilege—but Depp brings this peculiar mix of whimsy, aloofness, and eccentric daftness that I can...
