Magic Hour (2025) 57% 2/4 EDIT “This is a movie that’s short but still feels padded.” – RogerEbert.com May 15, 2026 Full Review In the Grey (2026) 48% 3.5/4 EDIT “Ritchie and Steven Soderbergh might be the only major filmmakers left who share the belief that not only can entertainment be art, it has a better shot at being received as both if the makers don’t think in those terms.” – RogerEbert.com May 15, 2026 Full Review Remarkably Bright Creatures (2026) 81% EDIT “When the film escapes the confinement tank of its numerous hand-me-down cliches, you’re happy to follow the water trail to see where it leads.” – RogerEbert.com May 10, 2026 Full Review The Python Hunt (2025) 95% 2.5/4 EDIT “The movie is a lot of fun and masters a pleasingly detached yet sardonic tone early on, but unfortunately, it doesn’t have a lot more to offer after that, aside from a growing human menagerie of admittedly lively characters...” – RogerEbert.com May 10, 2026 Full Review Animal Farm (2025) 27% 1/4 EDIT “This movie feels like it was funded with the promise that it would entertain and uplift children without disturbing them.” – RogerEbert.com May 1, 2026 Full Review Two Pianos (2025) 77% 3.5/4 EDIT “The main characters in 'Two Pianos’ are mostly disasters …But they all have redeeming qualities, and their brokenness makes them impossible to hate. ” – RogerEbert.com May 1, 2026 Full Review Omaha (2025) 91% 3/4 EDIT “The movie that’s onscreen is still intelligent and serious. The ending isn’t happy, but it feels right.” – RogerEbert.com Apr 24, 2026 Full Review Wasteman (2025) 100% 3.5/4 EDIT “It's a genre piece with tragic weight. ” – RogerEbert.com Apr 17, 2026 Full Review Balls Up (2026) 23% 1/4 EDIT “Wahlberg should not be cast in any role predicated on the idea that he’s good with words and ideas. Hauser is one of the best actors in the English language and will escape this disaster and do more great work, so there’s that.” – RogerEbert.com Apr 15, 2026 Full Review Outcome (2026) 28% 2.5/4 EDIT “There’s no denying Hill’s instinct for identifying the heart of a dramatic scene and turning the volume of the storytelling down low enough for us to hear it beating.” – RogerEbert.com Apr 10, 2026 Full Review The Christophers (2025) 95% 3/4 EDIT “Simple pleasures like these are why movies were created.” – RogerEbert.com Apr 9, 2026 Full Review Lumière! The Adventure Continues (2024) 3/4 EDIT “The audio portion of the experience pales in comparison to the visual, but the images are more than enough reason to put this movie in front of you and stare at it.” – RogerEbert.com Apr 3, 2026 Full Review Yes (2025) 91% 3.5/4 EDIT “It’s worth seeing and arguing about. Even if you end up hating it, there are moments you’ll never forget.” – RogerEbert.com Apr 3, 2026 Full Review Fantasy Life (2025) 81% 3/4 EDIT “The top-to-bottom cast of proudly eccentric actors ... ensures that every scene has moments of truth, and the filmmaker’s empathy pushes the movie over the finish line. ” – RogerEbert.com Mar 30, 2026 Full Review A Magnificent Life (2025) 60% EDIT “Chomet’s gift for deftly caricatured faces, expressive movement, and clever compositions hasn’t deserted him, and there are many flat-out beautiful bits scattered throughout, but this is altogether a work that’s best appreciated with the sound off.” – RogerEbert.com Mar 27, 2026 Full Review The Optimist: The Bravest Act Is Truth (2023) 95% 2.5/4 EDIT “This movie is a mess, but it has soul.” – RogerEbert.com Mar 11, 2026 Full Review Paul McCartney: Man on the Run (2025) 100% 2.5/4 EDIT “This one tells an involving story (for fans, anyway) but serves mainly as advertising and image maintenance for its star, and an investment for him and various parties that represent the star’s music, past and future.” – RogerEbert.com Mar 2, 2026 Full Review For Worse (2025) 77% 3/4 EDIT “This is a more-than-solid observational comedy with a melancholy undertone, reminiscent of early Albert Brooks movies like 'Modern Romance.'” – RogerEbert.com Mar 2, 2026 Full Review Crime 101 (2026) 88% 3.5/4 EDIT “This is a special movie. It has a life force unlike any other crime thriller I’ve seen. It’s about characters who suffer a personal failure but emerge transformed. ” – RogerEbert.com Feb 13, 2026 Full Review The President's Cake (2025) 99% 3.5/4 EDIT “It is notable for its unvarnished, affecting performances; its digitally shot yet eerily film-like cinematography, which packs a mural’s worth of information into deep-focus, very wide frames with rounded edges. ” – RogerEbert.com Feb 9, 2026 Full Review The Wrecking Crew (2026) 75% 3/4 EDIT “Although it looks backward to previous Hollywood hits, in all the ways that count, this movie is the future.” – RogerEbert.com Jan 29, 2026 Full Review Mother of Flies (2025) 94% 2.5/4 EDIT “But there are so many compensations that it’s very much worth seeing for anyone who loves horror—especially the atmospheric and gory, dread-based type, rather than the kind that is single-mindedly obsessed with staging jump-scares.” – RogerEbert.com Jan 23, 2026 Full Review Mr. Nobody Against Putin (2025) 100% 3.5/4 EDIT “One of its more quietly revelatory qualities is how it captures the way authoritarianism accelerates during wartime.” – RogerEbert.com Jan 22, 2026 Full Review Night Patrol (2025) 54% 3/4 EDIT “'Night Patrol' is far from perfect, but it’s got a certain something that pulls you in. The bleakness of its worldview is matched by the integrity of its filmmaking and performances. ” – RogerEbert.com Jan 19, 2026 Full Review Deepfaking Sam Altman (2025) 93% 2/4 EDIT “That 'Deepfaking Sam Altman' is earnest and curious and full of fun thought prompts ultimately makes it more frustrating than a flat-out bad movie would have been.” – RogerEbert.com Jan 17, 2026 Full Review
