Read Our Review OG Transformers fans can rest easy, as the latest movie in the long-running science fiction franchise has finally embraced animation. Transformers One, as the title suggests, is a prequel film that tells the origins of both Optimus Prime (Chris Hemsworth) and Megatron (Brian Tyree Henry) prior to their eventual leadership of the Autobots and Decepticons, respectively. The duo were friends at one point in their lives, though their split paths ultimately put the fate of their ho...
Fully-Animated Transformers
Being the first animated Transformers film since 1986's Transformers: The Movie, this fun prequel purposefully eschews several pitfalls that plagued previous Transformers movies. There aren't any grounded conflicts on Earth, nor are there any human characters to distract you from the awesome might of transforming machines. Instead, what you get is an impressive cast, a doubly impressive score by Brian Tyler (The Super Mario Bros. Movie, The Fast and the Furious), and a return to what drew so...

Read Our Review Body horror has seen a pretty notable resurgence in recent years, made all the more prominent by the flashy horror film The Substance. Written, directed, and produced by Coralie Fargeat, The Substance is an international co-production that follows the journey of Elisabeth Sparkle (Demi Moore), an aging television star who is introduced to a mysterious serum after a terrible accident. This serum allows Elisabeth to form a younger clone of herself, with the two feeling as though...
Full of Substance
Those familiar with Coralie Fargeat will likely recognize her fantastic 2017 debut, Revenge. Likewise, Demi Moore continues to lend her talent to the fantastic world of arthouse films, with her performance here reflecting beautifully against critiques of beauty standards and some of the most impressive editing you'll find in cinemas today. Seeing as how Fargeat cited David Cronenberg as one of her biggest creative inspirations, it's no surprise to see that The Substancecarries with it a simil...

Read Our Review A24 was always famous for their unconventional stories. This holds true with their latest film. A Different Man is a thrilling black comedy by Aaron Schimberg, who previously directed 2018's Chained for Life. The film follows Edward (Sebastian Stan), a man who lives with neurofibromatosis. After undergoing a procedure to remove his affliction and start life anew, Edward suddenly finds himself drawn to Oswald (Adam Pearson) — an actor with the same condition who approaches it i...
A Different Kind of Comedy
In what will likely be one of Sebastian Stan's best roles, A Different Man combines a caustic examination of self-confidence with equal parts thrilling and hilarious scripting. It's a film that turns similar themes found in movies like The Elephant Manon their head, leading you to feel sympathetic to Edward's plights — but not in the way that you would typically expect. Special mention needs to go to composer Umberto Smerilli as well, whose accompanying tunes pair extremely well with the film...

After debuting internationally last year, The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fryis finally hitting theaters in the United States. Based on the titular book by Rachel Joyce, this drama tells the story of Harold Fry (Jim Broadbent), a retiree who lives a quiet life in the middle of southern England. However, when he receives tragic news surrounding his friend Queenie (Linda Bassett), he opts to send her a letter with his deepest condolences. He heads to the post office. But then he walks past th...
A Sappy But Sentimental Story
Hettie Macdonald directed this sentimental story following her legendary success with the modern Doctor Who revival, with her most famous episode "Blink" winning a BAFTA Award among other accolades. Despite being absent from the world of film for nearly three decades, The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry is a fantastic return to the big screen, carrying with it a level of happiness and emotional investment that you can't help but appreciate. Its cinematography is a notable highlight for sure...

Read Our Review Have you ever thought about reconnecting with your younger self? Maybe you'd want to give them some token advice, or set them straight before there's no going back. In My Old Ass, such a thing happens to Elliott Labrant (Maisy Stella), a young woman who's visited by her older self (Aubrey Plaza) one fateful day. Though the latter warns the former about falling in love with a certain someone, can she truly resist destiny? Maddie Ziegler, Kerrice Brooks, Percy Hynes White, and M...
Maisy Stella's Fantastic Debut
After a breakthrough performance on the musical drama series Nashville, Maisy Stella crushed her feature film debut with the help of Aubrey Plaza. Despite being decades apart from each other, the duo in the film really do come off as the same person. But don't let its fantastical premise fool you. Underneath its setup, there lies a fantastic tearjerker coming-of-age storythat's sure to leave you with something to think about. It's cute, it's sentimental, and it's an all-around great time. Be...

Read Our Review Usually, American remakes of beloved international films tend to drop the ball in at least one, if not several, creative departments. Surprisingly, Speak No Evil managed to not only outperform expectations, but it did so with flying colors. Based on the original film by Christian Tafdrup, Speak No Evilfollows what happens when an American family — played by Mackenzie Davis, Scoot McNairy, and Alix West Lefler — shacks up with a friendly British couple at a remote farmhouse. Un...
A Surprisingly Good Remake
Despite carrying the weight of the Blumhouse banner and the challenges of an international remake, Speak No Evil is surprisingly entertaining. James McAvoy is nothing short of fantastic in his role as the enigmatic Paddy, and writer-director James Watkins brings a similar level of horrifying malice to the table after his previous work on Eden Lake and My Little Eye. Jon Harris also edited this feature, having previously collaborated with Watkins on Eden Lake in addition to working on Snatch,...

Dave Bautista takes the lead in this thrilling action comedy that's meant to entertain above all else.The Killer's Game, directed by J. J. Perry of Day Shiftfame, follows a prolific assassin by the name of Joe Flood (Dave Bautista). Though he's made a career out of killing, the sudden diagnosis of a fatal neurodegenerative disease leads Joe to make a drastic decision. In lieu of living his last few days in pain, Joe opts instead to be assassinated when he least expects it. There's just one pr...
Dave Bautista Leads a Thrilling Chase
Straightforward action is the name of the game in The Killer's Game. If you're looking for something more contemplative or introspective, you may want to look elsewhere. However, if you just want to see Dave Bautista flexing his charismatic muscles in a comparatively silly comedy movie, The Killer's Gameis a perfectly serviceable pick. It's been in development hell for nearly two decades, yet the final result is something that's as funny as it is violent.

Read Our Review Michael Keaton in messy makeup is back. After nearly four decades, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice is finally here to continue the beloved story originally directed by Tim Burton. The acclaimed director helmed this exciting legacy sequel, as the remaining Deetz family makes a surprise return to Winter River following a sudden tragedy. However, when the newest addition to the Deetz family, Astrid (Jenna Ortega), accidentally discovers a portal to the afterlife, the comical bio-exorcist...
Beetlejuice Is Beetle-Back
Though Beetlejuice Beetlejuice could never truly outshine its predecessor, its positive qualities make for a fun and engaging sequel with plenty of unexpected surprises. Michael Keaton slipped back into his familiar role like a glove. Jenna Ortega feels like a natural addition to Tim Burton's colorfully moody universe. Better yet, the screenwriting duo of Miles Millar and Alfred Gough (Wednesday, Into the Badlands, Shanghai Noon) make for a genuinely engaging story that thankfully doesn't out...

Read Our Review Neo-Westerns are always a visceral treat. The same can be said for The Thicket, a Western directed by Elliott Lester of Blitz and Nightingale fame. Based on the 2013 Joe R. Lansdale novel of the same name, The Thicket follows a man named Jack (Levon Hawke) as he attempts to rescue his sister Lula (Esmé Creed-Miles) from a vicious gang leader. He can't do it alone, however. Jack recruits the aid of a motley crew as they venture into The Big Thicket, where violence and crime run...
Tubi's Wild Western
A passion project for Peter Dinklage, who's been attached to the project since 2014, this intense Western melds thriller elements with an incredible cast and some breathtaking visuals. Even outside its intense production schedule and its distinctly wintry setting, there are plenty of other surprises to be found in The Thicket as well — the biggest arguably being the involvement of Metallica singer James Hetfield in the supporting cast, as well as Macon Blair of Blue Ruin and Green Room fame....

Read Our Review This 2022 drama has finally secured a wider theatrical release via the fine folks at Lionsgate. Continue, written and directed by Nadine Crocker, follows the journey of a young woman who is involuntarily institutionalized after she attempts to take her own life. However, during her time at the facility, she may come face to face with uplifting influences and newfound tragedies. Nadine Crocker stars in this film along with Shiloh Fernandez (Evil Dead, The Old Way), Lio Tipton (...
A Heart-Wrenching Story
Partially inspired by Crocker's own life story, Continue is a movie that doesn't shy away from its uncomfortable subject. In directly addressing it, however, what you get is a film that is refreshingly honest, presenting raw emotion and genuine impact without coming off as halfhearted or insincere. Nadine Crocker would later go on to direct Desperation Roadwith Mel Gibson, and while that film has its own positives, it pales in comparison to the rawness you'll find in this heart-wrenching story.
