Megamind vs. the Doom Syndicate (2024) 8% 4/10 EDIT “The over-the-top antics of the original are out, as is the original film’s cast, only to be replaced by an approximate facsimile that’s not quite good enough. ” – IGN Movies Mar 1, 2024 Full Review A Man Called Otto (2022) 70% 6/10 EDIT “A Man Called Otto is a benign comedy-drama that peppers a heart-wrenching story with plenty of eye-rolling jokes to distract you from its perfectly pedestrian plot.” – IGN Movies Jan 9, 2023 Full Review All Quiet on the Western Front (2022) 90% 9/10 EDIT “It’s a brutal, exhausting, and raw reminder of the evil humanity is capable of inflicting upon each other, and it couldn’t be more timely. ” – IGN Movies Oct 31, 2022 Full Review The Whale (2022) 64% 9/10 EDIT “A sharp script is delivered with slow brutality by Darren Aronofsky who gets to the heart of what it means to be Charlie. The Whale isn’t just a great film -- it’s an important one, too.” – IGN Movies Oct 21, 2022 Full Review My Policeman (2022) 44% 4/10 EDIT “My Policeman is underwhelming in every way, from its plodding script to its woefully sub-par performance from Styles. Better call the fuzz.” – IGN Movies Oct 20, 2022 Full Review The Good Nurse (2022) 74% 8/10 EDIT “The Good Nurse is a wild combination of exposé and serial killer drama that cuts a stark storyline through the grim landscape of U.S. healthcare. After all, who can you trust with your life?” – IGN Movies Oct 14, 2022 Full Review White Noise (2022) 64% 9/10 EDIT “It may be funny, even light-hearted in places, but White Noise confronts heavy, poignant topics with a level of awareness that will make you laugh while your skin crawls.” – IGN Movies Oct 11, 2022 Full Review Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile (2022) 72% 7/10 EDIT “Sure, it’s not exactly original, essentially a mish-mash of similar films including Hop and Sing, and most of the laughs feel familiar. But Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile conjures up enough of the old showbiz charm to win you over. ” – IGN Movies Oct 10, 2022 Full Review Werewolf by Night (2022) 90% 9/10 EDIT “Werewolf by Night may not make the hairs on the back of your neck stand up, but it will keep you on the edge of your seat with a slow, creeping tone that captures the very best of classic horror.” – IGN Movies Oct 6, 2022 Full Review Mr. Harrigan's Phone (2022) 47% 4/10 EDIT “Mr. Harrigan’s Phone is a frustratingly lifeless drama masquerading as a supernatural thriller. No scares will be found here as the film drags out its far-too-long runtime to tell a story that really isn’t worth watching. ” – IGN Movies Oct 6, 2022 Full Review Smile (2022) 80% 7/10 EDIT “The scares are utterly terrifying at times, and Sosie Bacon plays the troubled Dr. Cotter with a deft hand, exploring difficult subjects of mental health stigma while fighting back the hysterics.” – IGN Movies Sep 28, 2022 Full Review Day Shift (2022) 57% 7/10 EDIT “A fast-paced action comedy with plenty of bite.” – IGN Movies Aug 15, 2022 Full Review R.M.N. (2022) 97% 7/10 EDIT “A Boiling Pot Of Xenophobia Laid Bare. ” – Slashfilm May 31, 2022 Full Review Joyland (2022) 98% 7/10 EDIT “Joyland is a profoundly moving film that might just make a difference.” – Slashfilm May 31, 2022 Full Review Close (2022) 91% 9/10 EDIT “A devastating look at the loss of childhood friendship.” – Slashfilm May 31, 2022 Full Review Stars at Noon (2022) 63% 5/10 EDIT “A slow-burn romantic thriller that's so slow it doesn't really seem to go anywhere.” – Slashfilm May 26, 2022 Full Review War Pony (2022) 93% 8/10 EDIT “An effective debut feature from director Riley Keough, War Pony is a rare breed -- a native story told by an outsider seeking to uplift the community rather than exploit it.” – IGN Movies May 25, 2022 Full Review Triangle of Sadness (2022) 72% 8/10 EDIT “The script could’ve been tighter, but Triangle of Sadness keeps the laughs coming thick and fast, even well into the home stretch. Who knew class politics could be this much fun?” – IGN Movies May 25, 2022 Full Review The Stranger (2022) 92% 9/10 EDIT “It’s the kind of thriller that only comes along every once in a while -- truly unsettling and with enough twists and turns to not only keep you interested but on your toes. ” – IGN Movies May 23, 2022 Full Review Three Thousand Years of Longing (2022) 71% 6/10 EDIT “Taking on the age-old myths of djinn and magic wishes, Miller revitalizes the Arabian Nights with a technological twist. But while Tilda Swinton and Idris Elba give it their all, neither can save the film from collapsing in the third act. ” – IGN Movies May 23, 2022 Full Review EO (2022) 96% 7/10 EDIT “A Damning Take On Humanity's Relationship With Animals. ” – Slashfilm May 23, 2022 Full Review Holy Spider (2022) 82% 8/10 EDIT “A brutally effective thriller.” – Slashfilm May 23, 2022 Full Review Armageddon Time (2022) 77% 6/10 EDIT “Armageddon Time stops short of any meaningful statement, spending most of its time admiring the view.” – IGN Movies May 20, 2022 Full Review Memory (2022) 29% 6/10 EDIT “Memory is an adequately stylish action-thriller that showcases Neeson’s deftness with a silenced pistol or a well-cut fight scene.” – IGN Movies Apr 27, 2022 Full Review The Bad Guys (2022) 87% 8/10 EDIT “The Bad Guys is a slick, hilarious heist movie with buckets of laughs and a lot of heart.” – IGN Movies Apr 21, 2022 Full Review
