Chasing Summer (2026) 69% 8/10 EDIT “The unlikely, but inspired pairing of boundary pushing director Josephine Decker and writer/star Iliza Shlesinger turn in one of the finest and funniest romantic comedies in recent memory.” – The Gate Jan 28, 2026 Full Review Shelter (2026) 62% 6/10 EDIT “While the plot of Shelter is as predictable as these things tend to get, the film as a whole keeps things entertaining and refreshing by actually allowing its cast members to give well crafted performances amid some nifty action sequences” – The Gate Jan 28, 2026 Full Review Send Help (2026) 93% 6/10 EDIT “Although it takes a roundabout and not always emotionally logical way of arriving at its destination, Send Help is a fun, nasty, and rousing bit of wish fulfilment for anyone who has felt picked on or bullied in the workplace by an idiotic boss.” – The Gate Jan 27, 2026 Full Review A Private Life (2025) 81% 4/10 EDIT “Zlotowski deals with a lot of loaded topics ripe for emotional explanations and payoffs, but none of them offer much in the way of primal or intellectual impact. ” – The Gate Jan 23, 2026 Full Review Charlie the Wonderdog (2025) 42% 4/10 EDIT “Charlie the Wonderdog is a whole lotta nothing. It’s not bad enough to be offensive, creative enough to be interesting, or anything at all worth talking about. It’s just there. It exists.” – The Gate Jan 15, 2026 Full Review All You Need Is Kill (2025) 83% 6/10 EDIT “[T]he kind of pop art story that doesn’t want to drag things out or bog things down. It offers up the barest necessities for one’s enjoyment and doesn’t let up on the gas unless absolutely necessary.” – The Gate Jan 15, 2026 Full Review 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple (2026) 92% 9/10 EDIT “Straddling the odd, primal line between being highly entertaining and upsetting, this follow-up to its comparatively subdued predecessor from last year... goes for pure overkill and succeeds.” – The Gate Jan 14, 2026 Full Review 76 Days Adrift (2024) 6/10 EDIT “It’s Callahan’s recounting of a lengthy, life threatening scenario that makes this one so compelling and riveting; less so the construction of the documentary itself.” – The Gate Jan 14, 2026 Full Review DJ Ahmet (2025) 92% 7/10 EDIT “DJ Ahmet is cinematic comfort done well, with Unkovski preferring quiet moments to saccharine sweetness or an abundance of grand, sweeping gestures.” – The Gate Jan 2, 2026 Full Review The Plague (2025) 97% 8/10 EDIT “Polinger’s approach to a bleak time in the lives of many young people is as unsettling as it is delicate; refined as it is revolting to sometimes watch.” – The Gate Jan 1, 2026 Full Review We Bury the Dead (2024) 87% 6/10 EDIT “It’s not a consistently assured film, especially down the stretch, but We Bury the Dead has a lot of good ideas, notions, performances, and smart writing to keep things engaging.” – The Gate Jan 1, 2026 Full Review The Housemaid (2025) 74% 8/10 EDIT “ It’s the perfect antidote for heavier awards fare and bloated, inescapable studio blockbusters. Sure, it’s a popcorn movie at heart, but sometimes The Housemaid is exactly what the doctor ordered.” – The Gate Dec 17, 2025 Full Review Avatar: Fire and Ash (2025) 66% 5/10 EDIT “Although Avatar: Fire and Ash is yet another gorgeous looking technical achievement from director and co-writer James Cameron, this third instalment in his boundary pushing franchise is a major letdown on every other level.” – The Gate Dec 16, 2025 Full Review Peter Hujar's Day (2025) 92% 9/10 EDIT “Even if the viewer doesn’t have prior knowledge of any of the figures, luminaries, and acquaintances being brought up in conversation, Sachs and Whishaw find ways of making everything accessible amid such an experimental concept.” – The Gate Dec 12, 2025 Full Review Dust Bunny (2025) 85% 8/10 EDIT “It’s a niche film and a crowd pleaser at the same time; a studious exercise in genre homage that seeks to give audiences a chaotic mash-up the likes of which they’ll never see again. ” – The Gate Dec 12, 2025 Full Review La Grazia (2025) 81% 7/10 EDIT “Maybe Sorrentino has gone soft as of late. Or maybe he has just figured out how to better modulate his impulses and fetishes and turn them into stories that have just as much substance as they do style.” – The Gate Dec 11, 2025 Full Review Cutting Through Rocks (2025) 100% 7/10 EDIT “This could benefit from some additional external perspective, but as a series of well observed moments that resonate on a level that most viewers will be able to understand, Cutting Through Rocks is worth the struggle.” – The Gate Dec 11, 2025 Full Review Measures for a Funeral (2025) 9/10 EDIT “It sounds dry, and at points it can be, but Bohdanowicz has crafted a work about the art of research that’s finds warmth in all things academic.” – The Gate Dec 5, 2025 Full Review Jujutsu Kaisen: Execution (2025) 71% 5/10 EDIT “There’s a lot to like about Jujutsu Kaisen: Execution, but it’s essentially a feature length commercial catered towards die hard fans who want to see these characters on the big screen and/or they can’t wait for the new series to drop early next month.” – The Gate Dec 5, 2025 Full Review Zootopia 2 (2025) 91% 7/10 EDIT “With the holiday season ramping up, Zootopia 2 is a safe, solid, and likeable bet that the whole family can enjoy with ease.” – The Gate Nov 25, 2025 Full Review Sisu: Road to Revenge (2025) 95% 7/10 EDIT “A rollicking, blood soaked thrill ride that takes the best elements of the first 2022 outing, cranks them to maximum speed, and watches the gleeful carnage.” – The Gate Nov 21, 2025 Full Review Zodiac Killer Project (2025) 90% 6/10 EDIT “It’s not 100% successful as a film on its own, but then again, neither was the project Shackleton set out to make in the first place. Zodiac Killer Project is confounding, but also unique in its willingness to admit defeat.” – The Gate Nov 20, 2025 Full Review Now You See Me: Now You Don't (2025) 60% 7/10 EDIT “There’s a welcome level of honesty with the audience in these movies that sets them apart. They tell you that there’s magic afoot. And what you get is magic.” – The Gate Nov 13, 2025 Full Review Being Eddie (2025) 75% 5/10 EDIT “The tone of Being Eddie is "some things happened in my life and I’m grateful for almost all of it," which is fine, but a bit dull unless all you want to hear about are the hits and high points. ” – The Gate Nov 12, 2025 Full Review Playdate (2025) 23% 1/10 EDIT “It’s the kind of “movie” that gives “content” a bad name. It’s not a movie you watch to enjoy. It’s something that happens to you.” – The Gate Nov 12, 2025 Full Review
