Send Help (2026) 93% B EDIT “As a genre experiment, it's a down-the-middle good time at the movies that offers thrills, chills and gross outs galore. No need to send help, Raimi's got this territory mastered.” – Detroit News Feb 2, 2026 Full Review Shelter (2026) 62% D EDIT “It's dull, standard action fare, rendered in shades of gray from director Ric Roman Waugh.” – Detroit News Feb 2, 2026 Full Review H Is for Hawk (2025) 80% B EDIT “It approaches its subject with respect and doesn't pretend to offer easy answers for complicated matters. Grief is difficult, as is hawk training, and Lowthorpe's film treats both with proper reverence.” – Detroit News Jan 27, 2026 Full Review Mercy (2026) 24% C- EDIT “"Mercy" is able to hold its own for a good portion of its running time before going off the rails in its final act, when the story gets exponentially ridiculous and characters begin acting erratically.” – Detroit News Jan 22, 2026 Full Review 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple (2026) 92% B+ EDIT “The care DaCosta gives the characters, and the life the actors bring to them, is soulful and enriching, even moving.” – Detroit News Jan 17, 2026 Full Review The Rip (2026) 79% B EDIT “"The Rip" rips.” – Detroit News Jan 17, 2026 Full Review Greenland 2: Migration (2026) 51% C EDIT “"Greenland 2" is a strictly second-tier affair, with neither the special effects nor the set-ups raising the pulse of the on-screen action. ” – Detroit News Jan 9, 2026 Full Review Is This Thing On? (2025) 86% C+ EDIT “It's a rough workshop of ideas, not quite ready for the stage.” – Detroit News Jan 9, 2026 Full Review Primate (2025) 78% B EDIT “"Primate" is an old-school horror thriller that uses craft and technique to deliver a face-ripping good time.” – Detroit News Jan 9, 2026 Full Review Father Mother Sister Brother (2025) 81% B EDIT “In "Father Mother Sister Brother," veteran filmmaker Jim Jarmusch delivers a warm story of family and all its inescapable quirks.” – Detroit News Jan 9, 2026 Full Review Anaconda (2025) 48% C EDIT “Rudd and Black are fun enough on screen, but "Anaconda" is so loosey goosey in its plotting and mechanics that it's difficult to invest too much into it.” – Detroit News Dec 29, 2025 Full Review Song Sung Blue (2025) 78% B EDIT “Jackman is bulletproof, using the sheer power of his charm and the cheesier aspects of his personality to bring Lightning beaming to life.” – Detroit News Dec 24, 2025 Full Review Marty Supreme (2025) 94% A EDIT “It's a hyperkinetic tribute to making mistakes, to not apologizing, and to the desperation and determination of one's 20s.” – Detroit News Dec 24, 2025 Full Review Avatar: Fire and Ash (2025) 66% B EDIT “"Fire and Ash" is the first "Avatar" to feel its length. Impressive as it is, it's overkill.” – Detroit News Dec 24, 2025 Full Review The Housemaid (2025) 74% B+ EDIT “The twists and turns in "The Housemaid" are way too delectable to spill. But they help it make for a highly entertaining moviegoing experience, a popcorn movie just begging for extra butter.” – Detroit News Dec 17, 2025 Full Review Jay Kelly (2025) 75% C EDIT “Clooney sure does look fabulous, the embodiment of Hollywood royalty, even if you're not quite sure what, if anything, is going on beneath the surface of that million-dollar smile.” – Detroit News Dec 8, 2025 Full Review Hamnet (2025) 86% C+ EDIT “It's designed to be a tear-jerker, and it gets those tears flowing, although it's never quite as emotionally rich as it is on paper.” – Detroit News Dec 8, 2025 Full Review Five Nights at Freddy's 2 (2025) 16% C EDIT “Scarier and more coherent than its confoundingly dull predecessor, "Five Nights at Freddy's 2" still suffers from a convoluted script, but it at least won't make viewers feel like they've had their head smashed in by a killer animatronic robot.” – Detroit News Dec 8, 2025 Full Review A Very Jonas Christmas Movie (2025) 87% B EDIT “The Brothers Jonas fold several songs into the film's scant 80-minute runtime, which is a holiday treat unto itself.” – Detroit News Dec 2, 2025 Full Review A Merry Little Ex-Mas (2025) 56% B- EDIT “"A Merry Little Ex-Mas" may or may not count as a comeback for Silverstone, but it's a reminder of her particular talents, and she makes "Ex-Mas" a tiny little holiday treat.” – Detroit News Dec 2, 2025 Full Review Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery (2025) 92% B+ EDIT “"Wake Up Dead Man" finds ways to cleverly invert the "Knives Out" formula without exhausting it. ” – Detroit News Nov 26, 2025 Full Review Eternity (2025) 77% B EDIT “"Eternity's" greatest strength is its sense of worldbuilding, and the way it eases viewers into its version of life after death. ” – Detroit News Nov 26, 2025 Full Review Zootopia 2 (2025) 91% B- EDIT “"Zootopia 2" is more overt in its messaging, jackhammering its themes like a construction zone. It's a fine place to visit, but isn't as whimsical as it was the first time around.” – Detroit News Nov 26, 2025 Full Review Train Dreams (2025) 95% B EDIT “Joel Edgerton brings a quiet soulfulness to "Train Dreams" that perfectly complements director Clint Bentley's meditative portrait of an unassuming logger making his way through early 20th century America, and beyond.” – Detroit News Nov 24, 2025 Full Review Rental Family (2025) 87% C+ EDIT “"Rental Family" seems reverse engineered to make people tear up and give them the warm fuzzies. Like the agency in the movie, it's providing a service. But how it arrives there could use a little tinkering.” – Detroit News Nov 24, 2025 Full Review
