Sweetness (2025) 93% EDIT “Sweetness is a pop-fueled thriller exploring the dark side of devotion – both a love letter to music and a cautionary tale about the idols we put on pedestals.” – Mama's Geeky Feb 13, 2026 Full Review Diabolic (2025) 64% EDIT “Elizabeth Cullen shines in this indie horror. A bloody, gnarly clash between fundamentalism and a vengeful witch that's flawed but effective.” – Mama's Geeky Feb 12, 2026 Full Review GOAT (2026) 81% EDIT “Despite what its marketing implies, 'GOAT' tells a heartwarming story that is sure to leave audiences inspired to dream big and reach for the stars.” – Moviefone Feb 11, 2026 Full Review Crime 101 (2026) 86% EDIT “A dark, gritty, high-octane heist film that truly excels because of the stellar performances by the ensemble cast. It goes on too long, and could have used some trimming, but it's still a great watch.” – Mama's Geeky Feb 11, 2026 Full Review Redux Redux (2025) 98% EDIT “Brilliantly blends the concept of the multiverse and sci-fi with an absolute gut-punch of an emotional story. ” – Mama's Geeky Feb 10, 2026 Full Review Wuthering Heights (2026) 59% EDIT “Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi are electric in Emerald Fennell’s Wuthering Heights. A dark, sultry, and devastating take on a classic.” – Mama's Geeky Feb 9, 2026 Full Review The Rose: Come Back to Me (2025) 100% EDIT “The Rose: Come Back To Me offers an insight into the hardships this Korean Indie Rock group went through to get to where they are today. It is vulnerable, inspiring, heart-wrenching, and heartwarming, all at once.” – Mama's Geeky Feb 5, 2026 Full Review Stray Kids: The dominATE Experience (2026) EDIT “So much more than a concert movie; it spends time with each member so fans can get to know them better. Showcasing an epic show from all around the stadium, its a must see experience!” – Mama's Geeky Feb 5, 2026 Full Review Whistle (2025) 60% EDIT “Has all the makings of a great horror film on paper, but unfortunately, falls flat over and over again.” – Mama's Geeky Feb 4, 2026 Full Review The Muppet Show (2026) 98% EDIT “The Muppets are back and better than ever. This special is hilarious, charming, and an absolute blast. Guest star Sabrina Carpenter fits in with the troupe perfectly.” – Mama's Geeky Feb 3, 2026 Full Review The Moment (2026) 63% EDIT “A must-watch for Charli xcx fans and anyone fascinated by the behind-the-scenes grit of the entertainment world. It is filled with cringe-worthy satire and genuine heart.” – Mama's Geeky Jan 30, 2026 Full Review Untitled Home Invasion Romance (2025) 77% EDIT “Sharp, witty, and a lot of fun. Though predictable at times, there are still enough unexpected twists and turns to keep viewers guessing.” – Mama's Geeky Jan 28, 2026 Full Review The Wrecking Crew (2026) 73% EDIT “A high-octane tribute to the classic action-comedies of the 80s and 90s. Dave Bautista and Jason Momoa have an undeniable chemistry.” – That Hashtag Show Jan 28, 2026 Full Review The Gallerist (2026) 54% EDIT “On paper, this lead trio should be hated; however, I couldn't help but cheer them on as they hatched wild plans to cover up an accidental death in the gallery. This film is a blast, thanks to unforgettable lead performances.” – Mama's Geeky Jan 27, 2026 Full Review Send Help (2026) 93% EDIT “A gore-filled, hilarious survival thriller that boasts two unforgettable lead performances from Rachel McAdams and Dylan O'Brien.” – Mama's Geeky Jan 26, 2026 Full Review The Rip (2026) 79% EDIT “A captivating, dark, twisted police drama that will have viewers on the edge of their seats from start to finish. Matt Damon and Ben Affleck are, as always, electric together.” – Mama's Geeky Jan 16, 2026 Full Review 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple (2026) 92% EDIT “'28 Years Later: The Bone Temple' is a dark, twisted, wild ride through the apocalypse. Ralph Fiennes and Jack O'Connell deliver career-best performances.” – Moviefone Jan 13, 2026 Full Review One Last Adventure: The Making of Stranger Things 5 (2025) EDIT “Seeing all of the work and love that went into the final season of Stranger Things is truly special. It's a beautiful, perfect, bittersweet goodbye to Hawkins.” – Mama's Geeky Jan 12, 2026 Full Review People We Meet on Vacation (2026) 76% EDIT “Tom Blyth and Emily Bader are a complete joy on screen together! This movie is the true definition of a romantic comedy - laugh-out-loud hilarious and adorably sweet. ” – Mama's Geeky Jan 9, 2026 Full Review Greenland 2: Migration (2026) 49% 7/10 EDIT “A decent post-apocalyptic road trip, however, it often rushes the story and provides too many conveniences for the stakes to ever feel high.” – Mama's Geeky Jan 8, 2026 Full Review Rosemead (2025) 89% EDIT “Rosemead boasts two incredible lead performances and tells a story that is difficult to watch, but nevertheless serves as an important warning.” – Mama's Geeky Jan 7, 2026 Full Review The Testament of Ann Lee (2025) 87% EDIT “The Testament of Ann Lee is a powerful, if occasionally drowsy, look at a woman who refused to be broken by her circumstances. Amanda Seyfried delivers a career best performance.” – That Hashtag Show Dec 24, 2025 Full Review Re-Election (2025) EDIT “A film that reminds us that while we can’t go back and change our 17-year-old selves, we can always choose to be better versions of our 40-year-old selves.” – Mama's Geeky Dec 21, 2025 Full Review The SpongeBob Movie: Search for SquarePants (2025) 80% EDIT “Offers important lessons for viewers of all ages while delivering classic SpongeBob humor and fun. Mark Hamill steals every scene as The Flying Dutchman.” – Mama's Geeky Dec 17, 2025 Full Review The Housemaid (2025) 74% EDIT “A wild, twisted, and absolutely insane ride, this film perfectly captures the tension and surprise felt when reading the book, while also adding a bit more fun for those who know exactly what is about to happen.” – Mama's Geeky Dec 16, 2025 Full Review
