Run Amok (2026) 70% EDIT “If Run Amok doesn’t entirely succeed, it’s mostly because it dares to do too much: Our tantalizing glimpses of what this musical production might have looked like suggest an experimental vibe that the film never quite manages to deliver. ” – New York Magazine/Vulture Feb 3, 2026 Full Review The Musical (2026) 57% EDIT “For all its simple, primary-color narrative, The Musical captures something authentic about the all-consuming, world-destroying power of resentment. ” – New York Magazine/Vulture Feb 2, 2026 Full Review Shame and Money (2026) 100% EDIT “In other words, the film’s relentless authenticity dissolves into the visionary as it proceeds — suggesting that Shaban and Hatixhe have gained something resembling dual consciousness, a class sense of how they look to everyone else around them. ” – New York Magazine/Vulture Feb 2, 2026 Full Review zi (2026) 69% EDIT “It feels as if Kogonada has finally unleashed all his suppressed formalist energy. The movie feels like a release valve, an artiste’s penance. ” – New York Magazine/Vulture Feb 2, 2026 Full Review In the Blink of an Eye (2026) 18% EDIT “It sure feels like a miscalculation for a movie about the survival of humanity to have so little humanity in it.” – New York Magazine/Vulture Jan 30, 2026 Full Review The Weight (2026) 95% EDIT “It’s the kind of atmospheric, exciting period drama we don’t really get much anymore.” – New York Magazine/Vulture Jan 29, 2026 Full Review See You When I See You (2026) 72% EDIT “See You When I See You grapples with serious subjects, and everybody involved surely meant well. That’s just not enough. ” – New York Magazine/Vulture Jan 28, 2026 Full Review Paralyzed by Hope: The Maria Bamford Story (2026) 100% EDIT “Watching Paralyzed by Hope, we start to understand why other comedians, including Apatow himself, would be so fascinated and electrified by Bamford’s work. She lives on the front lines of a war others only occasionally allow themselves to fight.” – New York Magazine/Vulture Jan 27, 2026 Full Review The Oldest Person in the World (2026) 92% EDIT “For a movie so filled with death, The Oldest Person in the World is surprisingly, almost confrontationally life-affirming. That sounds cheap, but Green comes by the sentiment honestly. ” – New York Magazine/Vulture Jan 27, 2026 Full Review Filipiñana (2026) EDIT “Through heightened control of imagery and mood, attention to composition and texture and sound, Manuel turns this simple, languid setting into something far more sinister without ever betraying the beauty of what's onscreen.” – New York Magazine/Vulture Jan 27, 2026 Full Review One in a Million (2026) 100% EDIT “The unique achievement of One in a Million lies in the way it allows us to know this young woman while it preserves the mystery of a human soul. ” – New York Magazine/Vulture Jan 27, 2026 Full Review The Moment (2026) 63% EDIT “The point of a behind-the-scenes rock doc is that we’re getting something that feels like a true portrait of the artist. The Moment thinks it can have the best of both worlds, but it gives us neither.” – New York Magazine/Vulture Jan 27, 2026 Full Review Josephine (2026) 98% EDIT “Josephine might not tell a particularly original story, but it tells it in a way that makes us see the world anew.” – New York Magazine/Vulture Jan 27, 2026 Full Review Union County (2026) 100% EDIT “That it features a great performance from one of today’s most interesting actors[ Will Poulter] makes it that much more memorable.” – New York Magazine/Vulture Jan 27, 2026 Full Review The Gallerist (2026) 56% EDIT “I found myself charmed and fully invested in it. The film’s poppy vibrancy, its mood of absurdist anguish, its sheer velocity won me over. ” – New York Magazine/Vulture Jan 27, 2026 Full Review Knife: The Attempted Murder of Salman Rushdie (2026) EDIT “Knife is a simple documentary on its surface — and, as Gibney noted at the premiere, he came onboard after Griffiths had already shot much of the footage — but that simplicity is one of its virtues. ” – New York Magazine/Vulture Jan 27, 2026 Full Review The Invite (2026) 92% EDIT “The Invite goes to some odd places, but with each new turn in these relationships, the picture loses steam, perhaps because they’ve never come across as real people and these emotional twists don’t feel fully earned.” – New York Magazine/Vulture Jan 26, 2026 Full Review I Want Your Sex (2026) 86% EDIT “The director and his cast are clearly having so much fun, and that fun carries through to the audience. Who ultimately cares if they don’t quite stick the landing?” – New York Magazine/Vulture Jan 24, 2026 Full Review 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple (2026) 92% EDIT “The beauty of DaCosta’s film is that these particular ideas are worked in subtly, even though The Bone Temple itself is not what one might call subtle. ” – New York Magazine/Vulture Jan 15, 2026 Full Review Primate (2025) 78% EDIT “Primate lacks in terms of narrative complication, it makes up for with cinematic smarts, as director Roberts ably uses form to build suspense, conveying plot points via images instead of dialogue and refreshingly avoiding the usual jump-scare clichés.” – New York Magazine/Vulture Jan 9, 2026 Full Review Greenland 2: Migration (2026) 51% EDIT “Greenland 2 rarely coheres as a successful disaster picture — especially when compared to the wonderful original — but we do wind up caring for these characters, which feels like some sort of small victory.” – New York Magazine/Vulture Jan 9, 2026 Full Review Marty Supreme (2025) 94% EDIT “Marty Supreme is enormously entertaining on a basic cinematic level.” – New York Magazine/Vulture Dec 22, 2025 Full Review Avatar: Fire and Ash (2025) 66% EDIT “Fire and Ash is in some ways the messiest of the three Avatar movies, but it’s also the richest, the one in which we most lose ourselves, the one that makes us wonder about these characters and constantly peer into those rapturous backgrounds.” – New York Magazine/Vulture Dec 16, 2025 Full Review Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair (2006) 100% EDIT “Before our very eyes, Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair becomes a modern-day Odyssey.” – New York Magazine/Vulture Dec 8, 2025 Full Review Five Nights at Freddy's 2 (2025) 16% EDIT “The trauma theme, much discussed by the characters, doesn’t really get any kind of aesthetic workout. Even the film’s central idea of a child communing with giant, surreal automatons, is ultimately a nonstarter. It’s just a thing that happens.” – New York Magazine/Vulture Dec 5, 2025 Full Review
