- ReviewedMike & Nick & Nick & Alice12. April 2026M&N&N&A is hard to explain. The concept is fun, the acting is good, and it's overall an enjoyable movie. But the writing is so very strange. The world that's presented is just this random mob with a bunch of off the wall characters that serve as props for odd jokes that shouldn't really land. But the thing is by the end, they do land. The jokes, taken individually, are just bad most of the time. But as I watched the movie, it started to come together and felt intentional. Let yourself into the weird writing, tone, and setting and you'll probably like this one.
- ReviewedSend Help5. April 2026Send Help is very weird and subverted a lot of my expectations. I was expecting a run of the mill "asshole boss learns that subordinate is useful" movie. It starts off that way, but then it goes off those rails into something fresh with blurred lines and excellent acting from both leads. It is by no means a perfect movie, but it's a lot of fun and definitely worth a watch!
- ReviewedDust Bunny22. März 2026Dust Bunny follows a little girl and her hitman neighbor as she tries to convince him to kill the monster under her bed that ate her parents. Our hitman neighbor kills monsters for a living, at least that's what the little girl imagines. As the movie progresses, it keeps you guessing about whether the monster under her bed is real or a coping mechanism for trauma and abandonment. Dust Bunny is dark in its themes but light and fun in its delivery. The sets, characters, costumes, and cinematography are all very quirky and stylistic. Most movies like that don't speak to me, but Dust Bunny is an exception. While it's not perfect, I definitely recommend it, if you're up for a whimsical horror version of Leon The Professional.
- ReviewedGreenland21. Januar 2026The US ceded interest in Greenland officially, on paper, in the Treaty of The Danish West Indies in 1917, giving up any claim to the country and accepting Danish sovereignty over it, in exchange for what is now the US Virgin Islands.. Oh sorry, that's not what this movie is about. Greenland, the movie, is a decent end-of-the-world flick with Gerard Butler. A large comet is coming toward earth and everyone has been anxiously awaiting its benign atmospheric break up. Except that the government, for the first time in history, has lied to its people. The comet is actually going to destroy most life on the planet and only some have been chosen to get to a bunker 🤷 It's not a massive absurd action flick like 2012 with John Cusack driving a limousine over an actively crumbling city during tectonic disintegration. So don't go in expecting that. Greenland does a great job in the first half, drawing on the dread and panic that would happen in the event of an extinction level event. Although action is present, it focuses more on the human components. For me, it lost its steam somewhere along the way. But it's still worth a watch. The child is a pretty bad actor and was some okay accidental comedic relief as a result. I was happy to see Greenland 2 has the kid from Jojo Rabbit replacing him. I'll check it out.
- ReviewedMaterialists18. Januar 2026I can't help but think this movie suffers from expectations created by how it was promoted. The 3 leads being jovial and playful in interviews and such, suggesting a romcom. Admittedly, as a 36 year old man, I did not look into this movie beyond whatever snippets of the promotion snuck into Hot Ones or something my wife was looking at, so I could be off base with that. But Materialists is not a romcom, it's a romdram. Sure, there's a little bit of comedic levity, but it's mostly slow and tonally weird, with some sudden darkness that really threw me for a loop. Thematically, it's a decent criticism of things like materialism, shallow dating, and how society judges people. For what it actually is and who it's actually for, Materialists might be better than the rating I gave it. But expecting a romcom and getting characters talking a lot about their dating value or lackthereof and trying to talk each other into or out of being with one another wasn't particularly entertaining to me. If they dove off the deep end into the dark branch of the story, they may have been able to do an effective subversion of expectations and made it very impactful, now that I think about it. Instead, it was just a low stakes relationship drama. If you're into that, Materialists might be for you.
- ReviewedNo Other Choice4. Januar 2026I wanted to like No Other Choice. The idea that a recently fired Korean paper industry career man decides to kill off his job search competitors in a black comedy style is very intriguing. The cinematography and acting is great. The comedy comes through well, even just reading subtitles. Even all of the scenes taken individually are good to great. But ultimately, this movie is held back by its pacing and, in some parts, a lack of cohesion and some of the main character's choices, both of which feed into the pacing issues. No Other Choice, to me, is an example of a movie that could have been great, but just missed the mark. This could be a style preference of mine. It's worth a watch, even for just enjoying some of the individual scenes. It just didn't come together as a whole package for me.
- ReviewedFriendship4. Januar 2026I can't imagine going in to watch this movie without knowing what Tim Robinson does and enjoying it at all. Friendship has some good bits, but I feel it was simply a toned down version of Tim's usual style. Without taking the leap of going full bore into his absurdist comedy style, the movie is otherwise left to an odd tone and pacing that doesn't quite work. Still, like most of Tim's work, Friendship feels like an anxious unpredictable fever dream. He's nailed that again regardless of how much the actual comedy has been dialed back. If you like his usual stuff, you'll like this.
- ReviewedSisu: Road to Revenge25. Dezember 2025What is there to say? If you've seen the first Sisu, you'll be pleased to know this Sisu is no different. Just our silent hero, who just wants to be left alone, going on a Russki killing spree with his cute dog. Super violent, excellent practical effects, and... Well, that's basically it. Suspend your disbelief for this and just enjoy the ride.
- ReviewedNow You See Me: Now You Don't18. Dezember 2025The characters, now 8 of them, do a bunch of impossible magic tricks, as expected. One setting in particular is cool and provides some interesting visuals, but otherwise the movie is pretty forgettable. There are a lot of plot holes and strange moments. Obviously not meant to be taken seriously, this movie is something campy and dazzling for some kind of audience. I'm not sure which kind though. It feels like it's made for adults, but bad in ways that make it feel like a kids movie. Like something you'd watch on TNT at 2pm on a Wednesday off from school. Pike's South African accent is possibly the worst attempt at any accent I've ever heard in a movie. Franco seems like he's literally not acting in some parts and is practically joking his way through serious lines. Eisenberg has a weird beef with the other new white guy in the group, without anything especially negative occurring. I'm not sure if this movie had some things cut or if it just didn't matter enough to make things good or make sense. The first 2 movies weren't great, but there was SOME intrigue in them.
- ReviewedAliens vs. Predator: Requiem13. Dezember 2025A strange mix of police procedural, high school drama, and creature feature with an enormous amount of aliens. Like way too many aliens. They tried to do way too much with this one and it all fell flat, even for a dumb action movie. Nothing had time to matter.
- ReviewedAlien: Resurrection9. Dezember 2025Honestly my preferred Alien movie of the first 4 (sacrilege) until the w e i r d one comes out. All 4 movies suffer from some mix of issues in pacing, action vs tension, kitsch or camp, dialogue, etc. This one was kitschy and lacked charater development outside of Winona, but at least it was paced well enough for most of it and had some decent horror action.
