The Platform

The Platform Review

The Platform is a multi-tiered assembly of tension, terror, and terrible imaginings that, in cake form, would be worth centerpiece window placement in any professional pâtisserie.

Bloodshot

Bloodshot Review

Bloodshot shoots to kill, but with the accuracy of a Stormtrooper - off the mark and leaving much to be desired.

The Hunt Universal Pictures

The Hunt Review

The Hunt puts the "F-U" in midnight "fun" as no sides are safe in this middle-finger cultural roast that's as loudly defiant as it is proudly blood-soaked.

The Invisible Man

The Invisible Man Review

Leigh Whannell’s The Invisible Man draws from multiple Blumhouse catalog influences to ensure a chilling monster remake with ferocity and urgency at its core.

Brahms: The Boy II

Brahms: The Boy II Review

Bell's sequel seems to want nothing to do with its original, which is an odd and detrimental outcome for your direct continuation of Brahms' ongoing story.

Fantasy Island

Fantasy Island Review

From start to finish, Fantasy Island is lacking wicked wonderment and poignant reboot vocality. You'd be best off skipping it.

Sonic the Hedgehog

Sonic The Hedgehog Review

Sonic the Hedgehog blazes by lesser video game adaptations that have thus defined the subgenre's lackluster reputation by succeeding as both a sincere children's film and blue hedgehog origin that fans will applaud.

Birds of Prey

Birds Of Prey Review

Whenever filmmakers hoist their freak flag highest, that's when Warner Brothers' DCU has "peacocked" its feathers with the most memorable results. Let Shazam merge low-key horror influences with underdog heroics. Unleash Poseidon’s rage in Heavy Metal ways throughout Aquaman. Summon Harley Quinn to kick ass and chew pretty-pink bubble gum at this same time in Birds Of Prey. Creep into a title comic book character’s mind and splatter their essence all over the proverbial walls, as Cathy Yan does. Carnivalesque, Broadway-extravagant chaos as only the dame of madness, Ms. Harley Quinn, could ringlead.

Gretel & Hansel

Gretel & Hansel Review

Gretel & Hansel is a full course meal when it comes to cinematography and production design, but the sleepy, hollow narrative pacing is just too stogy to overcome.

The Turning

The Turning Review

The Turning is a failed ghost story on almost every conceivable level, with a third act that's flat-out unforgivable. Skip it.
