Everything comes together in a sufficiently nail-biting climax, the kind that expertly builds itself up with both anxiety and excitement.

Something in this film’s dense tapestry of horror always manages to pull you back in.

Perhaps his most poignant exploration of themes and ideas that have been with him throughout his career.

Jurassic World Dominion does next to nothing with what it has nor does it feel like any kind of real finale to what began with the 1993 original or even Trevorrow’s own 2015 reboot.

What’s new here? Well to put it simply, Watcher is first and foremost really fucking scary.

Turns what could easily be a ridiculous and cheesy tall tale into a compelling saga by the sheer power of its sincerity.

It doesn’t take full advantage of the big screen opportunity it has but at the same time it may not particularly need to.

For all of its dreamlike and arthouse qualities, Mandico’s experimental film has the benefit of an accessible and cohesive narrative. It’s a strangely intoxicating cinematic experience, one bursting with boundless imagination.

To fans that fall into the nostalgia trap (knowingly or otherwise) or others who are here just for some truly spectacular aerial stunts (they are genuinely awesome), the storytelling shortcomings of Top Gun: Maverick probably won’t matter. In many ways, the legacy sequel does improve upon its predecessor.

Disgusting carnage is made all the more impossible to look away from thanks to incredible practical effects, props and makeup. It’s astounding work.

Perhaps that overindulgence of nastiness and abandoning of subtlety is the point of a story about the inescapable, gross prevalence of the terrors of men.

A flat, dull and sadly uninspired take on King’s work that is neither scary nor exciting.

Christina Ricci is the not-so-secret weapon of Monstrous, whose performance makes up for the film’s at times lackluster execution of its various intriguing ideas.

The multiverse itself may be left feeling significantly unexplored, but it’s hard not to celebrate a Marvel movie as streamlined as this one is, right down to its shorter runtime.

While the story takes a rather linear route with few surprises, Eggers and his team still deliver incredibly visceral sequences of Viking brutality, an impressively massive and beautiful production and an engaging take on an old legend. It’s easy to get lost in time during those two hours.

Hawk is a legend, and while this documentary may be more invested in that rather than what makes him a human, it’s still a dazzling story worth telling.

The film gets that misfit feeling that draws kids to the genre in the first place and is then able to explore the ways in which they externalize and internalize it.

I want to remember the feeling this movie gave me as I left the theater. It inspires me to be kinder and better in all of my relationships.

Mariama Diallo establishes herself as a unique voice with plenty to say and a talent to look out for in the genre space.
