The Invite

★★★☆☆

107 min | R | June 26, 2026 | A24

TLDR: Olivia Wilde and Seth Rogen make a mismatched couple in a dinner-party drama that has real ideas about open marriage. It never settles on a voice, so the ideas outrun the movie.

July 12, 2026

Minions & Monsters

★★★☆☆

90 min | PG | July 1, 2026 | Universal Pictures

TLDR: Cute, and weirder than a Minions movie has any right to be. It finally cuts the little yellow guys loose from the Despicable Me machine and mostly gets away with it.

July 5, 2026

Lucky Strike

★★★☆☆

102 min | R | June 26, 2026 | Roadside Attractions / Saban Films

TLDR: A lean Battle of the Bulge survival thriller that keeps reaching for Saving Private Ryan and keeps coming up short. Real moments of tension, but never the scale or the authenticity to sell them.

June 27, 2026

Supergirl

★★★☆☆

108 min | PG-13 | June 26, 2026 | Warner Bros. Pictures

Kara Zor-El watched Krypton die slowly while her baby cousin escaped clean. Now she crosses the galaxy on a revenge quest with a grieving girl and a stolen ship. The cape is the same. The wound underneath is older.

June 19, 2026

Toy Story 5

★★★★☆

102 min | G | June 19, 2026 | Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures

Pixar returns to the well a fifth time and the well is not dry. The threat this time is not abandonment. It is a screen.

June 12, 2026

Disclosure Day

★★★☆☆

145 min | PG-13 | June 12, 2026 | Universal Pictures

Spielberg returns to the aliens that made him, and Emily Blunt is his best partner in years. The yarn engages. The philosophy is shoehorned in and thinner than his reputation promises.

June 5, 2026

Scary Movie

★★☆☆☆

96 min | R | June 5, 2026 | Paramount Pictures

A reboot of a parody franchise mocking the age of reboots. The joke writes itself, and the film still cannot finish it. Funny in spurts, mean in others.

Masters of the Universe

★★★★☆

141 min | PG-13 | June 5, 2026 | Amazon MGM Studios

Travis Knight makes the case that He-Man always deserved better. For anyone who grew up with the figures, the nostalgia hits a specific nerve, and the performances earn it.

May 29, 2026

The Breadwinner

★★★☆☆

100 min | PG | May 29, 2026 | Sony Pictures Releasing

Nate Bargatze turns his deadpan everyman act into a stay-at-home-dad comedy. It reaches hard for something to say about family, and reaches too far.

Backrooms

★★☆☆☆

110 min | R | May 29, 2026 | A24

The kernel of a great idea, stretched past its breaking point. Kane Parsons has an eye for dread but not yet a feel for structure.

May 22, 2026

The Mandalorian and Grogu

★★★☆☆

132 min | PG-13 | May 22, 2026 | Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures

The TV series goes big without breaking new ground. Strong performances and a great score, dragged down by a crowd of throwaway characters.

May 15, 2026

Is God Is

★★★★☆

99 min | R | May 15, 2026 | Amazon

Aleshea Harris adapts her own play into a strange, uncomfortable revenge story that lands on the strength of its performances. The tone is deliberately off and that is the entire point.

Obsession

★★☆☆☆

105 min | R | May 15, 2026 | Focus Features

A sharp premise about male entitlement that never figures out what it wants to say. Strong performances and clean craft cannot save a confused thesis.

May 8, 2026

The Sheep Detectives

★★★★☆

109 min | PG | May 8, 2026 | Amazon MGM Studios

Hugh Jackman, a flock of sheep, and a murder. Craig Mazin writes it like it matters, which is why it works.

April 10, 2026

You, Me & Tuscany

★★★☆☆

105 min | PG-13 | April 10, 2026 | Universal Pictures

A handsome rom-com that coasts on its location and its leads. Charming until you ask it to do anything else.

April 3, 2026

The Drama

★★★★☆

105 min | R | April 3, 2026 | A24

A confession turns a love story into a controlled burn that nobody walks away from clean.

April 1, 2026

The Super Mario Galaxy Movie

★★★☆☆

98 min | PG | April 1, 2026 | Universal Pictures

A perfect video game movie. Setup in five minutes, characters in ten, and a straight shot to the flag pole.

March 20, 2026

Project Hail Mary

★★★★★

156 min | PG-13 | March 20, 2026 | Amazon MGM Studios

The best sci-fi film in a decade earns every minute of its runtime.

March 17, 2026

Hoppers

★★★★☆

105 min | PG | March 6, 2026 | Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures

Pixar makes an original movie again. The premise is ridiculous. It works.

March 13, 2026

Reminders of Him

★★★☆☆

114 min | PG-13 | March 13, 2026 | Universal Pictures

Colleen Hoover’s best adaptation is still just a Colleen Hoover adaptation.

March 6, 2026

Scream 7

★★★☆☆

114 min | R | February 27, 2026 | Paramount Pictures

Kevin Williamson returns to the director’s chair and proves the franchise still has a pulse. Not exactly fun, but it hits all the right notes.

February 27, 2026

Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die

★★★★☆

134 min | R | February 13, 2026 | Briarcliff Entertainment

Gore Verbinski goes full throttle on AI paranoia and gets most of it right. Pacing stumbles but the vision holds.

February 22, 2026

How to Make a Killing

★★★☆☆

105 min | R | February 20, 2026 | A24

A family thriller that doesn’t moralize about its villains. Smarter than it looks.

February 16, 2026

Solo Mio

★★☆☆☆

100 min | PG | February 6, 2026 | Angel Studios

Kevin James does something unexpected. The movie buries it under everything else.

February 15, 2026

Wuthering Heights

★★★★☆

135 min | R | February 13, 2026 | Warner Bros. Pictures

Emerald Fennell adapts Emily Brontë with raw carnality and visual opulence. Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi destroy each other across the Yorkshire moors. This is not your grandmother’s period drama.

Crime 101

★★★★☆

140 min | R | February 13, 2026 | Amazon MGM Studios

Bart Layton adapts Don Winslow’s novella into a Los Angeles crime thriller that feels like it was made in 1995. Chris Hemsworth and Halle Berry anchor a film about desperate people making irreversible choices.

February 10, 2026

Shelter

★★★☆☆

107 min | R | January 30, 2026 | Black Bear Pictures

Statham does what Statham does best. Kills people beautifully in beautiful places. The kid nearly steals the whole thing.

February 5, 2026

Send Help

★★★☆☆

113 min | R | January 30, 2026 | 20th Century Studios

Raimi’s survival horror has committed performances and inventive gore, but the plotting is a mess. Rachel McAdams and Dylan O’Brien carry the film despite narrative confusion.

February 4, 2026

Melania

★☆☆☆☆

104 min | PG | January 30, 2026 | Amazon MGM Studios

A vanity project that mistakes access for insight. The most revealing thing about it is that no one in Trump’s orbit had the courage to say this was a bad idea.

February 2, 2026

Anaconda

★★★☆☆

100 min | PG-13 | December 25, 2025 | Directed by Tom Gormican

TLDR: Jack Black and Paul Rudd remake their favorite childhood movie in the rainforest and stumble into genuine heart. The slapstick lands, the sentiment earns it, and the whole thing works way better than it should.

February 1, 2026

Hamnet

★★★★☆

126 min | PG-13 | November 26, 2025 | Focus Features

A grief story that earns every tear without manipulating you into them. The rare prestige period piece that trusts its audience.

January 26, 2026

Mercy

★★★☆☆

100 min | PG-13 | January 19, 2026 | Amazon MGM Studios

Minority Report meets Judge Dredd meets GenZ phone addiction. Interesting premise undermined by a telegraphed twist and too many cop movie tropes.

January 24, 2026

Greenland: Migration

★★☆☆☆

98 min | PG-13 | January 9, 2026 | STX Entertainment

Big plot holes, small investment, performances that are unearned and characters barely worth knowing. But a few good shots and interesting plot devices make this “something.”

January 17, 2026

28 Years Later: The Bone Temple

★★☆☆☆

109 min | R | January 16, 2026 | Sony Pictures

Watched most of this through the cracks in my fingers. Strong world-building for the “28 Years” universe, but a gaping plot hole sinks whatever story they were trying to tell. Bonus points for releasing close enough to the first film that I didn’t need a refresher.

January 16, 2026

Dead Man's Wire

★★★☆☆

105 min | R | December 12, 2025 | Rowk Presents

Hip and fast-moving melodrama that doesn’t take itself too seriously. Lots of nice visual touches, and a really strong performance from Colman Domingo as the DJ. Glows up the based-on-true-life characters as Dread Pirate Cary Elwes and It-clown Bill Skarsgard. Not exactly airy but still light enough to not take too seriously.

January 11, 2026

Song Sung Blue

★★★★☆

132 min | PG-13 | December 25, 2025 | Focus Features

A Neil Diamond tribute act sounds like a punchline, but Jackman and Hudson sell the hell out of it. Surprisingly tender family drama underneath the sequins and chest hair. Craig Brewer knows exactly how much schmaltz he can get away with.

Is This Thing On?

★★★★☆

121 min | R | December 19, 2025 | Searchlight Pictures

Will Arnett doing halting crowd work and mid-life crisis comedy? I’m there. Charming and real, with Laura Dern delivering a powerhouse turn as the wife balancing pride in parenthood against the quiet grief of setting aside who you used to be. Never saccharine, even when you see the beats coming.

December 28, 2025

Marty Supreme

★★★☆☆

150 min | R | December 19, 2025 | A24

Timothee Chalamet commits fully to a ping pong obsessive, but the pacing and tonal whiplash keep this from greatness. Strong supporting turns from Kevin O’Leary, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Odessa A’zion can’t quite save the slapstick detours.

December 21, 2025

The SpongeBob Movie: Search for SquarePants

★★★★☆

96 min | PG | December 19, 2025 | Paramount Pictures

Derek Drymon sends SpongeBob into the deep sea searching for his missing parents. The animation is gorgeous. The emotional stakes are real. This is SpongeBob at his best.

December 20, 2025

Avatar: Fire and Ash

★★★★☆

198 min | PG-13 | December 19, 2025 | 20th Century Studios

Cameron delivers again. Three hours of visual spectacle from an obsessive perfectionist. Still can’t explain why nobody talks about these movies a month later.

December 18, 2025

The Housemaid

★★★★☆

131 min | R | December 19, 2025 | Lionsgate

A domestic thriller that actually earns its twist. Amanda Seyfried is the reason to show up.

December 9, 2025

The Running Man

★★★☆☆

133 min | R | November 14, 2025 | Paramount Pictures

Edgar Wright’s Stephen King adaptation has style to spare but asks too much of your suspension of disbelief.

December 7, 2025

Rental Family

★★★★★

110 min | PG-13 | November 21, 2025 | Searchlight Pictures

Brendan Fraser as a too-big-for-Japan American finding himself through pretend families. My favorite movie of the year.

Five Nights at Freddy's 2

★☆☆☆☆

104 min | PG-13 | December 5, 2025 | Universal Pictures

Emma Tammi returns to Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza with a sequel that drowns in convoluted mythology and forgotten character. The animatronics look great. Everything else is a mess.

December 3, 2025

The Secret Agent

★★★★☆

161 min | R | November 26, 2025 | Neon

Brazil’s military dictatorship gets the thriller treatment it deserves. The parallels to the present are not subtle. They don’t need to be.

November 28, 2025

Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery

★★★★★

145 min | PG-13 | November 26, 2025 | Netflix

Rian Johnson sends Benoit Blanc into a religious community to solve an impossible murder. Daniel Craig leads an ensemble that includes Josh O’Connor, Glenn Close, and Josh Brolin. This is mystery filmmaking at its finest.

Eternity

★★★★☆

114 min | PG-13 | November 26, 2025 | Focus Features

David Freyne asks who you choose when you die and meet everyone you ever loved in the afterlife. Elizabeth Olsen anchors a romantic comedy about impossible choices.

Zootopia 2

★★★★☆

108 min | PG | November 26, 2025 | Walt Disney Pictures

Jared Bush and Byron Howard send Judy and Nick undercover into new corners of Zootopia. The animation is stunning. The mystery is sharp. Disney Animation remembers what made the original special.

November 14, 2025

Train Dreams

★★★★☆

102 min | PG-13 | November 7, 2025 | Netflix

Denis Johnson’s novella gets the adaptation it deserves. Edgerton finally gets the role he deserves. Everybody wins.

Sentimental Value

★★★☆☆

133 min | R | November 7, 2025 | Neon

Tender family drama with strong performances that never finds the gear it keeps reaching for. Cannes loved it. I liked it fine.
