Take Me Home (2026) 93% C+ EDIT “The ending doesn’t exactly erase what “Take Me Home” does well, but it does leave the film a much more dispiriting watch than it otherwise would have been, a promising drama that betrays it’s own best qualities.” – IndieWire Jan 29, 2026 Full Review Mercy (2026) 24% C EDIT “The work of everyone involved -- from the sleepy performances to the crew doing an okay but never exemplary job -- suggests a first draft, a sense of wanting to get the thing out and move on. ” – IndieWire Jan 21, 2026 Full Review Endless Cookie (2025) 90% B EDIT “Occasionally, it can veer on a little exhausting, but for the most part, the approach is soothing in its way, and endearing in how it fleshes out this family as a very rambunctious and colorful, tight-knit unit.” – IndieWire Dec 5, 2025 Full Review Chainsaw Man - The Movie: Reze Arc (2025) 96% B+ EDIT “It’s one of the best films in the recent crop of anime TV expansions, and its bittersweet teen love story is certainly potent enough to make you cry.” – IndieWire Oct 22, 2025 Full Review Strange Journey: The Story of Rocky Horror (2025) 97% B- EDIT “Anyone who lives, breathes, and bleeds “Rocky Horror” will find comfort in “Strange Journey” and its celebration of the musical’s enduring legacy. Anybody else won’t find much to grab onto.” – IndieWire Oct 3, 2025 Full Review Fixed (2025) 56% B EDIT “Just like the dog it’s about, “Fixed” has plenty of balls, but its big heart is what really matters.” – IndieWire Aug 13, 2025 Full Review Nobody 2 (2025) 76% C- EDIT “There’s really no sense of any particular care or passion in the sequel, which frequently feels like the hurried Wikipedia plot summary of a more fleshed-out film that doesn’t actually exist.” – IndieWire Aug 13, 2025 Full Review Smurfs (2025) 21% D EDIT “Somehow, in a movie about finding your niche, the Smurfs are more generic and indistinguishable than ever.” – IndieWire Jul 16, 2025 Full Review KPop Demon Hunters (2025) 92% B EDIT “In the hands of directors Maggie Kang and Chris Appelhans, it’s a endearing, beautifully animated crowdpleaser, with a dorkily sincere love for the pop culture phenomena it embeds itself in.” – IndieWire Jul 11, 2025 Full Review Elio (2025) 83% C+ EDIT ““Elio” isn’t a bad time at the theaters — it’s pretty to look at, charming enough, and frequently funny. ” – IndieWire Jun 17, 2025 Full Review Karate Kid: Legends (2025) 58% C EDIT “Han and Li’s student-teacher relationship in particular is diluted and lacks necessary grounding, and there’s little compelling friction between the two masters to make up for it. ” – IndieWire May 28, 2025 Full Review Eagles of the Republic (2025) 65% B EDIT “The film becomes something of a political thriller, but it’s at its most interesting when it stops to question whether great art can -- or even should be -- made under the grip of totalitarian control.” – IndieWire May 19, 2025 Full Review Orwell: 2 + 2 = 5 (2025) 82% B- EDIT “It feels less personal and more generic, like a term paper someone could have written in undergrad. Still, Peck makes his points well, and accomplishes what he sets out to do by getting your blood pressure rising.” – IndieWire May 17, 2025 Full Review Reeling (2025) B EDIT “At its best, Yana Alliata’s sharp feature finds a balance between both serenity and stress, effectively placing the audience in the mind of its confused audience surrogate.” – IndieWire Mar 12, 2025 Full Review Jimpa (2025) 55% C- EDIT “Between an over-reliance on woozy indie filmmaking staples -- from its soft lighting to its plodding, overly delicate score -- and a central family dynamic that never feels legible, the end result is more irritating than enlightening.” – IndieWire Jan 25, 2025 Full Review Sweethearts (2024) 62% B- EDIT “What keeps “Sweethearts” enjoyable despite its dips into tedium are Shipka and Hiraga, who both have experience with this type of bawdy straight-to-streaming teen movie and prove more than capable of taking on leading roles themselves.” – IndieWire Nov 27, 2024 Full Review The Killer's Game (2024) 46% C+ EDIT “There’s a lot of fun to be had in this premise, but as it goes on, Perry’s film struggles to make the most of it. The world he places us in feels frustratingly underdeveloped.” – IndieWire Sep 12, 2024 Full Review Transformers One (2024) 89% C EDIT “It’s all executed competently but joylessly, with zero fun to be had as it labors across an hour and 40 minute runtime that feels both too short and painfully long.” – IndieWire Sep 12, 2024 Full Review Savages (2024) 100% B+ EDIT “Despite how fantastical the jungles of “Savages” may look, it’s a film that’s very much rooted in real life, and is all the more powerful for it.” – IndieWire May 20, 2024 Full Review Imaginary (2024) 25% C EDIT “None of this makes much of an impact given how poorly sketched the characters are, and how little there is to distinguish the film from hundreds of other horror movies that come out every year.” – IndieWire Mar 8, 2024 Full Review Kung Fu Panda 4 (2024) 71% B- EDIT “A mostly enjoyable lark, even if its feather-light plotting makes the original movies feel like epics in comparison.” – IndieWire Mar 6, 2024 Full Review Love Machina (2024) 23% C EDIT “Like a lot of AI art, Love Machina is too fixated on technological advancement to leave any room for real, interesting human feelings.” – IndieWire Jan 25, 2024 Full Review Dìdi (2024) 96% B EDIT “By its closing credits, “Dìdi” resembles the often-exasperating boy it has been following for 90-some minutes: charming, rough around the edges, and brimming with potential.” – IndieWire Jan 20, 2024 Full Review Baltimore (AKA Rose's War) (2023) 88% B- EDIT “If the movie isn’t ever quite able to inspire the same devotion from the audience that Rose Dugdale has for her cause, watching a protagonist as compelling as her still makes for a thrilling 90 minutes and change.” – IndieWire Sep 15, 2023 Full Review The Teacher (2023) 83% C EDIT “The movie struggles to translate its noble aims to compelling drama, with any audience investment merely being a byproduct of the inherently high stakes. ” – IndieWire Sep 11, 2023 Full Review
