Mercy (2026) 24% 2.5/4 EDIT “Visual images flash by fast and furious, but Bekmambetov does a remarkable job of creating a plausible world of lives lived digitally. “Mercy” is a fun movie.” – San Francisco Chronicle Jan 22, 2026 Full Review Bite the Bullet (1975) 69% 4/4 EDIT “"Bite the Bullet" is epic Americana, gorgeously filmed, and a candidate for most underrated film of the 1970s.” – San Francisco Chronicle Jan 15, 2026 Full Review 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple (2026) 92% 2/4 EDIT “Although more Fiennes is always a good thing, “28 Years Later: The Bone Temple” simply doesn’t have the solid storytelling or enthralling characters that its predecessor has. ” – San Francisco Chronicle Jan 13, 2026 Full Review Marty Supreme (2025) 94% 4/4 EDIT “Even with a uniformly excellent and eclectic cast and some over-the-top situations, it’s hard to take your eyes off Chalamet.” – San Francisco Chronicle Dec 24, 2025 Full Review Suburban Fury (2024) 100% 4/4 EDIT “It’s not often that we get an assassin or would-be assassin’s side of the story. “Suburban Fury” therefore is not just a cracking good tale, it’s a historical document as well.” – San Francisco Chronicle Dec 17, 2025 Full Review Avatar: Fire and Ash (2025) 66% 1/4 EDIT “James Cameron’s Avatar: Fire and Ash is a whole new movie, but you can be forgiven if for a good while you think the projectionist accidentally loaded Avatar: The Way of Water into the machine.” – San Francisco Chronicle Dec 16, 2025 Full Review Cactus Pears (2025) 97% 3/4 EDIT “Kanawade handles all these competing emotional storylines with assuredness, his delicate direction combining with sensitive performances, colorful costumes and sumptuous cinematography for a very memorable debut.” – San Francisco Chronicle Dec 12, 2025 Full Review Zodiac Killer Project (2025) 90% 1/4 EDIT “It is certainly clever and inventive to a point, but that point is about 20 minutes in. By then, we get it already, and yet the film drags on for 92 visually uninspiring minutes.” – San Francisco Chronicle Dec 2, 2025 Full Review Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery (2025) 92% 4/4 EDIT “The best one of the franchise yet.” – San Francisco Chronicle Nov 24, 2025 Full Review Put Your Soul on Your Hand and Walk (2025) 98% 4/4 EDIT “Simultaneously heartwarming and heartbreaking, it is one of the best movies of the year, despite being made on a shoestring budget under challenging circumstances.” – San Francisco Chronicle Nov 24, 2025 Full Review Rental Family (2025) 87% 3/4 EDIT “It wears its heart on its sleeve and is a bit too sentimental, but it is sweet and pleasing.” – San Francisco Chronicle Nov 24, 2025 Full Review The Carpenter's Son (2025) 31% 2.5/4 EDIT “It is certainly interesting.” – San Francisco Chronicle Nov 14, 2025 Full Review The Running Man (2025) 63% 2/4 EDIT “The inherent problem with “The Running Man” is the actual running. ” – San Francisco Chronicle Nov 14, 2025 Full Review Bugonia (2025) 88% 1/4 EDIT “So we’re set up for a darkly comic tale of the need to reign in corporate malfeasance versus the dangers of social media disinformation. The problem is, Lanthimos has no interest in exploring issues, just raising them.” – San Francisco Chronicle Oct 22, 2025 Full Review After the Hunt (2025) 37% 1/4 EDIT “ It is tone deaf to the real changes that are happening, using them instead as plot twists that are incendiary and tawdry.” – San Francisco Chronicle Oct 17, 2025 Full Review Good Fortune (2025) 78% 3/4 EDIT “It’s impressive how many hot button issues Ansari, making his directorial debut, packs into 98 minutes, especially while keeping the laughs coming. ” – San Francisco Chronicle Oct 17, 2025 Full Review Black Phone 2 (2025) 72% 3/4 EDIT “It’s a chilling expansion of the franchise, with visually inventive dream sequences.” – San Francisco Chronicle Oct 16, 2025 Full Review Fairyland (2023) 96% 4/4 EDIT “Durham’s direction is sensitive and assured, and he does a great job mixing his location work with archival footage to create an authentic sense of what San Francisco was like during those times. ” – San Francisco Chronicle Oct 14, 2025 Full Review The Smashing Machine (2025) 70% 3/4 EDIT “One gets the impression that Johnson and Blunt are making their characters more interesting than they actually were.” – San Francisco Chronicle Oct 7, 2025 Full Review Eleanor the Great (2025) 66% 3/4 EDIT “Although the script takes some unfortunate shortcuts, “Eleanor the Great” is a moving study of grief, loneliness and aging.” – San Francisco Chronicle Sep 29, 2025 Full Review Megadoc (2025) 98% EDIT “Watching Coppola work is a treat.” – San Francisco Chronicle Sep 24, 2025 Full Review A Big Bold Beautiful Journey (2025) 37% 1/4 EDIT ““A Big Bold Beautiful Journey” has a deadly pace. Every time movement seems sustainable, Kogonada introduces a flashback that grinds things to a halt.” – San Francisco Chronicle Sep 19, 2025 Full Review One Battle After Another (2025) 94% 4/4 EDIT “It’s a movie, partially filmed in Northern California, that everyone will disagree with in some capacity, but just might love anyway. ” – San Francisco Chronicle Sep 17, 2025 Full Review Riefenstahl (2024) 97% 4/4 EDIT “It’s not just a meticulously researched portrait of a (like it or not) female filmmaking pioneer, but also a demonstration of how disinformation works on a mass scale. It’s Gaslighting 101.” – San Francisco Chronicle Sep 15, 2025 Full Review Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Infinity Castle (2025) 98% 3/4 EDIT “While the plot is simple, the visual imagery and the emotions are complex.” – San Francisco Chronicle Sep 11, 2025 Full Review
