Hell of a Summer (2023) 49% 6/10 EDIT “Hell of a Summer, the latest slasher to receive a theatrical release courtesy of genre specialists Neon, is a surefooted but rigorous retelling of familiar blade-oriented killing frenzies. ” – CBR Apr 8, 2025 Full Review Warfare (2025) 92% 9/10 EDIT “Alex Garland and Ray Mendoza deliver a nerve-jangling war film set almost entirely in one location. ” – CBR Mar 31, 2025 Full Review Holland (2025) 21% 3/10 EDIT “Nicole Kidman is wasted in a mystery movie you've seen too many times.” – CBR Mar 27, 2025 Full Review Death of a Unicorn (2025) 52% 6/10 EDIT “Death of a Unicorn has trouble stitching its various ideas into a cohesive, satisfactory whole. Alex Scharfman's film is never boring, but it rarely hits the sweet spot.” – CBR Mar 24, 2025 Full Review Opus (2025) 39% 4/10 EDIT “Ayo Edebiri and John Malkovich deliver standout performances in a film that never finds its footing. ” – CBR Mar 13, 2025 Full Review Black Bag (2025) 96% 9/10 EDIT “Black Bag, a remarkably inviting, respectfully opaque look into married life as fondled by the gloved hand of spycraft.” – CBR Mar 10, 2025 Full Review Last Breath (2025) 79% 8/10 EDIT “Last Breath offers moments of surprising contemplation. Life, as it turns out, can be very lonely.” – CBR Feb 27, 2025 Full Review The Legend of Ochi (2025) 76% 7/10 EDIT “The Legend of Ochi might be Saxon's first feature, but it sings with confidence” – CBR Jan 27, 2025 Full Review Flight Risk (2025) 29% 2/10 EDIT “Flight Risk fails to invigorate a tired sub-genre. ” – CBR Jan 24, 2025 Full Review Inheritance (2025) 55% 6/10 EDIT “With a confrontation, a twist, and a punchline, Inheritance reveals itself to be something far greater than what it’s been masquerading as.” – CBR Jan 23, 2025 Full Review Better Man (2024) 89% 7/10 EDIT “For those with even a passing interest in Williams' life or are curious to see a musical biopic from a more self-aware angle, here's a film that will offer some profound insights about the audiences' relationships with celebrities.” – CBR Jan 10, 2025 Full Review The Brutalist (2024) 93% 7/10 EDIT “Unruly, excessive, clichéd, and altogether spellbinding, The Brutalist is a treatise in paradoxes.” – CBR Dec 30, 2024 Full Review Nosferatu (2024) 85% 9/10 EDIT “When the dawn breaks, when fates are sealed, audiences will be left to consider Eggers as a filmmaker who didn't just remake a classic, but made it better.” – CBR Dec 26, 2024 Full Review Sonic the Hedgehog 3 (2024) 86% 5/10 EDIT “The Hedgehog (and Shadow) fails to live up to the hype.” – CBR Dec 18, 2024 Full Review Nickel Boys (2024) 92% 10/10 EDIT “Nickel Boys finds new dimensions to a masterful novel. ” – CBR Dec 18, 2024 Full Review Kraven the Hunter (2024) 15% 2/10 EDIT “Kraven the Hunter crucially misunderstands its character. By making a one-dimensional villain a hero, J. C. Chandor's film struggles to find purpose.” – CBR Dec 12, 2024 Full Review Y2K (2024) 42% 5/10 EDIT “Y2K has more pop culture quips than actual meaning.” – CBR Dec 9, 2024 Full Review Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl (2024) 100% 9/10 EDIT “Vengeance Most Fowl is Wallace and Gromit at their sincerest and smartest.” – CBR Dec 2, 2024 Full Review Blitz (2024) 81% 6/10 EDIT “Blitz loses itself to tired World War 2 movie clichés. ” – CBR Nov 25, 2024 Full Review Gladiator II (2024) 70% 6/10 EDIT “Ridley Scott's sequel is a middling remake with one incredible performance.” – CBR Nov 11, 2024 Full Review Memoir of a Snail (2024) 95% 8/10 EDIT “This stop-motion masterpiece is this year’s most emotional & heartbreaking movie.” – CBR Nov 1, 2024 Full Review Conclave (2024) 93% 7/10 EDIT “Conclave boasts Ralph Fiennes’ best performance since The Grand Budapest Hotel.” – CBR Oct 31, 2024 Full Review Goodrich (2024) 82% 4/10 EDIT “Michael Keaton’s second best performance of 2024 is wasted on an unoriginal adult drama.” – CBR Oct 24, 2024 Full Review Venom: The Last Dance (2024) 40% 1/10 EDIT “Venom 3 rivals Joker 2 for worst superhero movie of all time.” – CBR Oct 24, 2024 Full Review Anora (2024) 93% 9/10 EDIT “Anora is visually and thematically startling. It's also a masterclass in ironic juxtaposition and thematic depth.” – CBR Oct 21, 2024 Full Review
