Wuthering Heights (2026) 57% EDIT “Wuthering Heights, wuthering blights on traditional literature. Approach it like it’s a very expensive soap opera and you’ll have a pretty damn good time.” – Decider Apr 1, 2026 Full Review Anemone (2025) 52% EDIT “A disappointing return for one of the all-time greats.” – Decider Apr 1, 2026 Full Review 53 Sundays (2026) EDIT “53 Sundays is a succinctly funny and insightful character study brimming over with well-written dialogue.” – Decider Apr 1, 2026 Full Review Bambi: The Reckoning (2025) 59% EDIT “This movie is boiled butt served on stale saltines with a side of moldering beets, and it sucks carp cloacas. ” – Decider Apr 1, 2026 Full Review Versa (2026) EDIT “We can set aside our cynicism about Hollywood bulldozing us with so many films about grief and loss – there’s plenty of room for this very small film about very large emotions. ” – Decider Apr 1, 2026 Full Review Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice (2026) 79% EDIT “The borderline-tryhard flippancy of Mike and Nick and Nick and Alice may be divisive, but my aging Xer take on it is, more of you will take it than leave it. ” – Decider Mar 30, 2026 Full Review GOAT (2026) 85% EDIT “Let’s call it PFOAT: Perfectly Fine Of All Time. The “P” is silent.” – Decider Mar 30, 2026 Full Review The Red Line (2026) EDIT “The Red Line is uneven, but smart and thematically vigorous when it needs to be.” – Decider Mar 30, 2026 Full Review Pretty Lethal (2026) 56% EDIT “Pretty Lethal proves that ballet is hard, but maybe making good movies is harder.” – Decider Mar 30, 2026 Full Review Send Help (2026) 93% EDIT “Send Help meets and occasionally exceeds expectations for late-career Raimi nuttiness.” – Decider Mar 30, 2026 Full Review Mercy (2026) 25% EDIT “The director’s visual approach to the material reflects our modern-day eye-crossing experience of constant information-bombardment, which is to say it’s no fun whatsoever. ” – Decider Mar 23, 2026 Full Review Sisu: Road to Revenge (2025) 93% EDIT “Sisu: Road to Revenge is genius-level idiocy.” – Decider Mar 23, 2026 Full Review Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man (2026) 90% EDIT “ Knight carefully arranges the thematic chess pieces for maximum drama.” – Decider Mar 23, 2026 Full Review Terri Joe: Missionary in Miami (2026) EDIT “Welp. Terri Joe’s transition from short-form comedy to long-form feature tends to be problematic. As ever, what’s funny for two minutes is tough to sustain for 80. ” – Decider Mar 19, 2026 Full Review Country Doctor (2025) EDIT “ During a time of such widespread duress, Country Doctor is a feelgood story that might be just what the doctor ordered. ” – Decider Mar 19, 2026 Full Review The Cut (2024) 67% EDIT “This Cut is so shallow, it doesn’t even need stitches.” – Decider Mar 19, 2026 Full Review It's Dorothy! (2025) EDIT “Its lack of focus doesn’t detract from its entertainment value.” – Decider Mar 19, 2026 Full Review Not Without Hope (2025) 77% EDIT “Not Without Hope is a by-the-numbers but modestly engaging BOATS movie. It won’t change your life, but it also won’t make you feel like you wasted your time. ” – Decider Mar 16, 2026 Full Review The Plastic Detox (2026) EDIT “The Plastic Detox uses some fearmongering to convince us of its assertions, but it balances it out with humor and hope. Bottom line, it’s informative, not manipulative. ” – Decider Mar 16, 2026 Full Review Anniversary (2025) 67% EDIT “The first half of the film is taut and shrewdly directed placesetting. But the second half loses its razorlike edge, replacing it with blunt-force hysteria.” – Decider Mar 16, 2026 Full Review Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die (2025) 83% EDIT “The story maintains its satirical aim throughout, but loses its nerve in the second hour as its stronger ideas get swallowed up in the machinations of the plot.” – Decider Mar 16, 2026 Full Review The Testament of Ann Lee (2025) 86% EDIT “ Ann Lee goes whole-hog and you can’t help but be admired by her dedication – and hypnotized by this most singular of musicals. ” – Decider Mar 16, 2026 Full Review Fukushima: A Nuclear Nightmare (2026) EDIT “Fukushima: A Nuclear Nightmare is brutal, but vital viewing.” – Decider Mar 12, 2026 Full Review Dracula (2025) 53% EDIT “This Dracula is as elaborate and ambitious as it is sloppy.” – Decider Mar 12, 2026 Full Review Primitive War (2025) 63% EDIT “It’s not quite Primitive Snore but it comes a little too close.” – Decider Mar 12, 2026 Full Review
