Late Fame Review: Willem Dafoe Finds the Poetry in an Unflashy Second Act
A thoughtful, low-stakes literary drama whose compassionate perspective and restrained Willem Dafoe performance outweigh moments of creeping sentimentality.
Leviticus Review: Queer Rural Horror With Teeth, Even If Its Influences Linger
A vivid, socially charged horror debut whose powerful setting, scares and emotional urgency help it rise above an obvious debt to It Follows.
Gail Daughtry And The Celebrity Sex Pass Review: A Wild, Joke-Stuffed Oz Detour
A gleefully excessive Oz-inspired farce whose barrage of gags will not all connect, but whose strongest comic stretches and Zoey Deutch’s assured lead performance make the chaos worthwhile for fans of maximalist spoof-adjacent comedy.
Pressure Review: A Tense D-Day Forecast Where the Stakes Are Storm-Force
A smart, tightly mounted D-Day thriller that turns weather data and command-room conflict into absorbing suspense. Andrew Scott’s rigorous central performance gives its cerebral stakes real force.
Practical Magic 2 Review: A Glossy Spell That Forgets What Made the Coven Sing
A handsome, intermittently charming reunion whose returning cast and richly styled world cannot fully overcome strained plotting and a narrowed sense of what makes the Owens family compelling.
Hope Review: A Monster Movie That Floors the Accelerator
A ferocious, strange creature spectacle whose reckless tonal confidence is its biggest strength. Uneven CGI and an open-ended finale keep it from feeling fully satisfying, but its action and nerve make it a memorable swing.
Oasis: Don’t Look Back In Anger Review — A Reunion Film Built for the Big Singalong
An expansive, emotionally charged Oasis reunion documentary that pairs unusually intimate access with concert-film spectacle. Its unifying-music message can be overworked, but the rehearsal footage, fan perspective and stadium catharsis give it real lift.
Fall 2 Review: A Scrappy Sequel With a Serious Fear of Heights
A rougher sequel with less precise writing, Fall 2 still delivers when it commits to ruthless high-altitude suspense and escalating survival hazards.
Runner Review: Alan Ritchson Delivers the Mayhem in a Fast, Familiar Action Ride
A brisk, knowingly broad action thriller whose urgent organ-delivery premise, lively central pairing and hard-hitting chases outweigh its familiar character beats and thin villains.
Read beyond the stars.
