La Grazia (2025) 81% EDIT “La Grazia ultimately will be minor Sorrentino, but it still offers enough fodder for the eye and mind to warrant a watch.” – Decider Feb 14, 2026 Full Review Eternity (2025) 76% EDIT “Two hours in Eternity is more than enough. ” – Decider Feb 14, 2026 Full Review State of Fear (2026) EDIT “State of Fear is trending toward being a deeply underappreciated action film. So appreciate it, dammit!” – Decider Feb 14, 2026 Full Review Tyler Perry's Joe's College Road Trip (2026) EDIT “No doubt about it, Tyler Perry’s Joe’s College Road Trip is a Tyler Perry movie.” – Decider Feb 14, 2026 Full Review Marty Supreme (2025) 94% EDIT “You’ll loathe Marty but love Marty Supreme.” – Decider Feb 11, 2026 Full Review We Bury the Dead (2024) 88% EDIT “Where other actors might be content to half-zombie-shuffle through low-budget films like this for an easy paycheck, Ridley’s commitment to her performance is admirable. We Bury the Dead has modest ambitions, and meets them for the most part.” – Decider Feb 11, 2026 Full Review The Secret Agent (2025) 98% EDIT “The Secret Agent is an amazing film from a new master of the form.” – Decider Feb 7, 2026 Full Review Ella McCay (2025) 23% EDIT “Ella McKay is not OK. ” – Decider Feb 6, 2026 Full Review Queen of Chess (2026) 85% EDIT “Queen of Chess leaves a few too many rocks unturned to be truly substantive. But as a surface-level summary of Judit’s impressive, inspiring achievements, it works rather well.” – Decider Feb 6, 2026 Full Review Relationship Goals (2026) 23% EDIT “I’d say Relationship Goals is as subtle as a fart in church.” – Decider Feb 6, 2026 Full Review The Housemaid (2025) 74% EDIT “The Housemaid exists firmly in the not-bad/could-be-better realm. We expected nonsense, and nonsense we got, and appreciators of such will find plenty to gnaw on here.” – Decider Feb 6, 2026 Full Review Copshop (2021) 83% EDIT “Copshop is too much fun for too long, so steering anyone away from it would be disingenuous.” – Decider Feb 6, 2026 Full Review Hamnet (2025) 86% EDIT “Buckley’s performance feels like an act of possession. ” – Decider Feb 6, 2026 Full Review The Strangers: Chapter 2 (2025) 14% EDIT “More like The Strangers: Chapter Spew. ” – Decider Feb 2, 2026 Full Review Greenland 2: Migration (2026) 49% EDIT “Greenland 2 is just greenbland. ” – Decider Feb 2, 2026 Full Review Zootopia 2 (2025) 91% EDIT “The first film struck me as a cut above Just Fine. By comparison, Zootopia 2 is more of a grower, and I can imagine multiple jokes emerging with multiple viewings. This is smart, highly enjoyable stuff. ” – Decider Feb 2, 2026 Full Review Eleanor the Great (2025) 66% EDIT “Eleanor the Great is a well-intentioned miscalculation.” – Decider Jan 29, 2026 Full Review Anaconda (2025) 48% EDIT “CGI’s better than ’97 at least. Other than that? Meh.” – Decider Jan 29, 2026 Full Review The Wrecking Crew (2026) 73% EDIT “The Wrecking Crew hits all its marks, but without a more creatively rigorous approach to classic action-comedy tropes, it quickly gets wearisome. ” – Decider Jan 29, 2026 Full Review Peter Hujar's Day (2025) 92% EDIT “ I can objectively say it’s admirable in its form, an experimental film with a highly focused specificity of intent.” – Decider Jan 29, 2026 Full Review Gabby's Dollhouse: The Movie (2025) 85% EDIT “Gabby’s Dollhouse: The Movie is just fine.” – Decider Jan 27, 2026 Full Review Beast of War (2025) 89% EDIT “Beast of War is far from groundbreaking, and the story is thin. But it’s also a taut 87 minutes, and offers just enough of a variation on familiar stories to be worth your time.” – Decider Jan 27, 2026 Full Review The Big Fake (2026) EDIT “The Big Fake is more period fashion show than intriguing drama. ” – Decider Jan 27, 2026 Full Review A Big Bold Beautiful Journey (2025) 37% EDIT “It’s a testament to the film’s tonal ineffectiveness that I kept wondering why, as Sarah and David allowed themselves to be yanked through this dull, maudlin star-crossed-lover horse-manure story full of cloyingly precious tender moments.” – Decider Jan 22, 2026 Full Review Twinless (2025) 97% EDIT “Twinless is enough of a rollercoaster that you feel like you’re still on it the day after you watch it. It clung to me like a shroud. It’s not immediately likable, but the more you ponder, the greater its status in the mind.” – Decider Jan 22, 2026 Full Review
