Obsession (2025) 95% 2.5/5 EDIT “Some of Obsession works, but it’s ultimately only good enough to make it easy to wish it was much better. ” – The Reveal May 14, 2026 Full Review Is God Is (2026) 98% 3.5/5 EDIT “Harris understands that anyone telling a story of revenge is supposed to pepper it with nods to the importance of grace and forgiveness. She just doesn’t want to. ” – The Reveal May 14, 2026 Full Review The Sheep Detectives (2026) 94% 3.5/5 EDIT “It’s a lively but also lovely kids film about what happens when you can’t just be a kid anymore.” – The Reveal May 7, 2026 Full Review Deep Water (2026) 71% 3/5 EDIT “There might not be anything in Deep Water that hasn’t been done better in other movies, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t done well here.” – The Reveal Apr 30, 2026 Full Review Michael (2026) 39% 1.5/5 EDIT “The Michael Jackson of Michael never colors outside the lines of the image Jackson and his team attempted to project while alive—that of a childlike, endearing eccentric, kindhearted genius. It’s a hard act to keep up for the length of a feature film.” – The Reveal Apr 23, 2026 Full Review Legend (1985) 33% EDIT “As a visual experience, Legend retains its appeal, but for more sober-minded filmgoers, it's intriguing primarily as a intriguing failure.” – AV Club Apr 17, 2026 Full Review Normal (2025) 77% EDIT “ It’s more wearying than shocking, but not fatally so thanks to a brisk pace, a willingness to shift gears with little warning, and, again, Odenkirk’s humane performance” – The Reveal Apr 16, 2026 Full Review Exit 8 (2025) 93% 3.5/5 EDIT “Exit 8 adapts a 2023 indie game that teases out the disquieting, uncanny qualities beneath the surface of the sort of bland, functional, everyday spaces that most of us pass through without thinking—or looking at twice—all the time.” – The Reveal Apr 9, 2026 Full Review Faces of Death (2026) 68% 2.5/5 EDIT “[I]t doesn’t take long for the new Faces to largely abandon its novel premise in favor of a grimy-looking (and grimy-feeling) giallo riff.” – The Reveal Apr 9, 2026 Full Review The Towering Inferno (1974) 69% C EDIT “As the bland, star-laden drama gets swallowed by fiery special-effects setpieces, it feels like one type of big-budget mediocrity giving way to the next.” – AV Club Apr 2, 2026 Full Review The Super Mario Galaxy Movie (2026) 42% 2/5 EDIT “[I]t’s also pretty much as impenetrable as Finnegan’s Wake for those not locked into its hermetic, mushroom-and-brick-filled world.” – The Reveal Apr 2, 2026 Full Review Alpha (2025) 58% 3.5/5 EDIT “Alpha is Ducournau’s most restrained film, one short on some of the stylistic bravado of her previous work. But there’s a studied intimacy that mostly works as an effective substitute.” – The Reveal Mar 26, 2026 Full Review Project Hail Mary (2026) 94% 4/5 EDIT “At once zippy and emotionally wrenching, the film performs a similar balancing act as its leading man. ” – The Reveal Mar 19, 2026 Full Review undertone (2025) 74% 3.5/5 EDIT “To put it bluntly, it’s spooky as hell.” – The Reveal Mar 12, 2026 Full Review THE BRIDE! (2026) 57% 2.5/5 EDIT “Drunk on its own ambitions and the permission to go as big as possible, The Bride! is seldom cohesive (and occasionally incoherent) but it’s also rarely boring, the sort of noble failure that’s more compelling to watch and discuss than a lesser success.” – The Reveal Mar 5, 2026 Full Review Scream 7 (2026) 31% 2/5 EDIT “There just isn’t that much meta commentary you can supply for horror franchises this deep into their existence, except that they mostly suck.” – The Reveal Mar 5, 2026 Full Review Filipiñana (2026) 89% EDIT “Manuel’s unhurried pace and commitment to long takes feels more effective as the film progresses, the images grow stranger, and the rot beneath the gleaming surface becomes harder to hide. ” – The Reveal Feb 19, 2026 Full Review How to Make a Killing (2026) 44% 2/5 EDIT “[A[ baffling dullness pervades the film from beginning to end, which is no mean feat for a story built around a string of colorful murders.” – The Reveal Feb 19, 2026 Full Review Wuthering Heights (2026) 57% EDIT “[A]part from the increasingly perverse spite relationship formed between Heathcliff and Isabel [...] a mopey predictability overtakes the film as Cathy and Heathcliff’s love enters its inevitable, and protracted, death spiral.” – The Reveal Feb 12, 2026 Full Review Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die (2025) 81% 3.5/5 EDIT “[The film] feels raggedly put together at times, however precise Verbinski’s filmmaking might be within each scene, but as the story unfolds and the full scope of the threat emerges, a winning sincerity overtakes the film.” – The Reveal Feb 12, 2026 Full Review The Moment (2026) 66% 2.5 / 5 EDIT “The Moment is, in conception, an ideal project for Charli xcx, whose resistance to taking pop stardom seriously has helped shape her image. If only the reality of The Moment was as strong as the idea. ” – The Reveal Feb 5, 2026 Full Review Vanishing Point (1971) 63% A EDIT “It works brilliantly as an action movie, its chase scenes and stunts filmed with an eye toward distressing angles and heat-distorted shots of roads stretching out to infinity.” – AV Club Feb 4, 2026 Full Review Days of Heaven (1978) 93% A EDIT “It's Malick's particular genius to make viewers feel like they're seeing the world, with all its beauty and danger, for the first time. ” – AV Club Feb 3, 2026 Full Review Send Help (2026) 93% 4/5 EDIT “Their power struggle sometimes plays like a popcorn variation on Lena Wertmüller’s Swept Away [and] at other moments like an emotionally fraught, sexually charged variation on a Bugs Bunny vs. Elmer Fudd tussle.” – The Reveal Jan 29, 2026 Full Review Mercy (2026) 25% 1.5 / 5 EDIT “That set-up might make Mercy sound like it’s attempting a classic act of sci-fi irony [...] but hold up! Mercy’s attitudes toward artificial intelligence, due process, and the surveillance state are a lot more nuanced. Way too nuanced, really.” – The Reveal Jan 22, 2026 Full Review
