If you’re a diehard fan of the original, maybe you’ll get something out of this. But for everyone else, you’re better off just watching the original version again.

The Naked Gun was much better than I expected it to be, where I laughed often, especially in the opening act.
A Nice Indian Boy is a total delight. It’s full of warmth, humor, and honest family drama, and I wish more people were talking about it.
Abraham’s Boys has some decent moments and a strong performance from Welliver, but they were buried under too much slow-moving nothingness.
The Ugly Stepsister is a body horror film that is deeply uncomfortable, weirdly beautiful, and emotionally disturbing in the best possible ways.
I went in prepared to hate this thing, or at least feel absolutely nothing. It stumbles a little at times, and it won’t please everyone. But Superman 2025 is just fun and well-made.
Friendship is a comedy that actually has something to say about loneliness, masculinity, and the desperate need for connection, but it never gets preachy, it just gets weird.
This isn’t just a new chapter for Superman, it’s a heartfelt revival. Gunn reminds us why the character matters and dares us to believe again.
Lost in Starlight is a calm, sincere little sci-fi love story that respects its characters and the audience. It’s not perfect, but it’s got a kind of gentle honesty I didn’t know I missed until now.
Jurrasic World: Rebirth is not smart, it’s not groundbreaking, but it’s a damn sight better than watching Chris Pratt do his raptor hand thing again.
M3GAN 2.0 is ridiculous, messy, and overstuffed, but it’s also quite sharp, funny, and way more entertaining at times than it had any right to be.
The Life of Chuck is like one of those films you watch when you’re already thinking about your childhood, or your own mortality. It might frustrate you, but it might also break your heart in a good way.
28 Years Later is a mixed bag. We certainly have things to like and appreciate, but as I mentioned, the messiness of the film might not bother some, but it bothered me. I wanted to care more, I really did, but it all felt a little bit jarring.
Freaky Tales doesn’t pretend to be high art, and it doesn’t need to be. It’s a rowdy, stylish, and sometimes goofy celebration of rebellion, music, and standing up to assholes.
Kapkapiii isn’t a film you analyze too much. It’s a film you watch when you don’t want to think, and just want some cheap and stupid comedy that raises a chuckle now and again.
Predator: Killer of Killers is smart without being smug, brutal without being empty, and surprisingly emotional for a franchise that once featured a handshake with the force of a small earthquake.
Thunderbolts is exactly the kind of Marvel movie I’ve been waiting for since Endgame. It’s honest about the state of the MCU, takes risks by focusing on flawed characters, and manages to be both funny and emotionally engaging.
I went into watching Until Dawn with hope. Not high hopes, mind you. Just regular, middle-of-the-road hopes – the kind of hope you reserve for a video game movie that might actually be fun, if not necessarily good.
And for about ten minutes, I was fine….
Fear Street: Prom Queen is a film that feels like it’s borrowing heavily from other 80s teen horror staples without really bringing its own voice.
