Bumblebee (2018) 91% EDIT “It isn't a flawless movie, and it nearly descends into self-parody at times, but after a decade of Bay's rock-'em sock-'em battles, Bumblebee nevertheless comes across like a mini-revelation: Transformers movies don't need to be terrible.” – The Verge Dec 20, 2018 Full Review Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018) 97% EDIT “It's innovative, irreverent, and dynamic. It's hilarious but exceptionally earnest, with a lead character worth caring about.” – The Verge Nov 28, 2018 Full Review Cam (2018) 93% EDIT “Cam never deals much with technology itself, and yet it's an effective, unnerving techno-thriller focused almost entirely on the emotions intertwined with our online interactions.” – The Verge Nov 18, 2018 Full Review Ralph Breaks the Internet (2018) 88% EDIT “It's kinetic, clever, and filled with video game cameos, though it doesn't fully achieve its Pixar-perfect ambitions.” – The Verge Nov 14, 2018 Full Review Overlord (2018) 82% EDIT “Overlord is an impressive directorial statement from a confident filmmaker who can handle dynamic action sequences and ratchet up tension like an action and horror veteran.” – The Verge Nov 12, 2018 Full Review Prospect (2018) 89% EDIT “The finished product isn't as arresting as the best indie science fiction films, but it nevertheless establishes Caldwell and Earl as filmmakers to watch, capable of doing a lot with very little.” – The Verge Oct 31, 2018 Full Review Suspiria (2018) 65% EDIT “he result is unlikely to be as influential as Argento's movie, and it will test some viewers' patience, but it's still a bold, hypnotic work, an example of the richness that today's generation of filmmakers are bringing to the horror genre.” – The Verge Oct 23, 2018 Full Review Venom (2018) 31% EDIT “It's a train wreck of a movie, mixing and matching wildly dissonant tones, bizarre plot contrivances, and a truly unique lead performance.” – The Verge Oct 3, 2018 Full Review Destroyer (2018) 74% EDIT “It's yet another sign that we need more Karyn Kusama films in the world, whether big or small.” – The Verge Sep 25, 2018 Full Review First Man (2018) 87% EDIT “It's an epic, ambitious film, but it ends just shy of true greatness.” – The Verge Sep 12, 2018 Full Review Halloween (2018) 79% EDIT “It ultimately feels like a decent movie that could have been a very good movie, if only Green had been able to modulate his tone more effectively.” – The Verge Sep 10, 2018 Full Review A Star Is Born (2018) 90% EDIT “It's valid to ask whether a movie needs to be made a fourth time, but Cooper's fantastic, emotional film demonstrates how execution, style, and a modern point of view can make even the most familiar story fresh again.” – The Verge Sep 10, 2018 Full Review The Predator (2018) 34% EDIT “The film jumps around between so many characters that it's almost impossible to feel any real tension, much less emotional investment.” – The Verge Sep 10, 2018 Full Review The Happytime Murders (2018) 23% EDIT “Sure enough, the film gets things off to a fun and surprising start... Then there's the rest of the movie.” – The Verge Aug 27, 2018 Full Review Christopher Robin (2018) 73% EDIT “Christopher Robin doesn't just use nostalgia as a salve; it uses it as a way to mourn things that we've lost in our lives and as a way to unpack how our actions can hurt those around us.” – The Verge Aug 3, 2018 Full Review Mission: Impossible - Fallout (2018) 98% EDIT “It's filled with gasp-inducing motorcycle chases, kinetic car sequences, and bruising, brutal combat.” – The Verge Jul 12, 2018 Full Review Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom (2018) 47% EDIT “Throughout [director J.A. Bayona's] career, he's excelled at building tension and creating atmospheric unease... But all too often, the script hinders the impact.” – The Verge Jun 7, 2018 Full Review Solo: A Star Wars Story (2018) 69% EDIT “Once Solo gets cooking, it's as cohesive as Star Wars gets, and ultimately, that comes down to the script.” – The Verge May 15, 2018 Full Review Deadpool 2 (2018) 83% EDIT “Deadpool proved that audiences were hungry for a superhero as self-aware as they are; Deadpool 2 proves that character can actually ground an ensemble.” – The Verge May 15, 2018 Full Review Don't Leave Home (2018) 70% EDIT “Don't Leave Home is moody and atmospheric, an arthouse horror film that has the patience to slowly roll out its story without worrying about jump-scares or big plot reveals.” – The Verge May 7, 2018 Full Review Anon (2018) 38% EDIT “It's an amiable thriller that will definitely account for an enjoyable couple of hours in the lives of Netflix subscribers, though it likely won't leave the same impact as Niccol's best work.” – The Verge May 4, 2018 Full Review Avengers: Infinity War (2018) 85% EDIT “It pays off the emotional investment movie audiences have been making in these characters for years, sometimes in genuinely heart-wrenching ways.” – The Verge Apr 25, 2018 Full Review Black Panther (2018) 96% EDIT “It's gripping, funny, and full of spectacle, but it also feels like a turning point, one where the studio has finally recognized that its movies can be about more than just selling the next installment.” – The Verge Feb 6, 2018 Full Review Summer of 84 (2018) 71% EDIT “The film is a well-intentioned throwback... But that can't stop the movie from feeling like a rehash of a rehash, a story covering ground that's already been reimagined in a much more effective way.” – The Verge Jan 26, 2018 Full Review Lizzie (2018) 66% EDIT “The movie is engrossing, with Sevigny delivering a fierce performance that inspires empathy in spite of -- or perhaps because of -- the awful things the audience knows Lizzie will eventually do.” – The Verge Jan 25, 2018 Full Review
