All of a Sudden (2026) EDIT “With All of a Sudden, a film with much to recommend about it, the overall impact is diluted due to the length of some sequences which feel endless and almost more like an academic exercise than an actual movie.” – Deadline Hollywood Daily May 15, 2026 Full Review Parallel Tales (2026) 18% EDIT “What Farhadi has brilliantly cooked up ultimately feels wholly original and deliciously crafted on every level. This is one of those crackerjack stories with great characters that grabs you right from the start and doesn’t let go for a minute. ” – Deadline Hollywood Daily May 14, 2026 Full Review Ashes (2026) 83% EDIT “Ashes is a powerful and moving motion picture. It is also unique in dealing directly with the hot-button topic of immigration, but surprisingly in two countries that speak the same language. ” – Deadline Hollywood Daily May 13, 2026 Full Review A Woman's Life (2026) 94% EDIT “Bourgeois-Tacquet’s solid female-centric drama is not what you might call thrilling cinema, but it is worthwhile, and in Drucker’s hands we have a character who is something special to behold.” – Deadline Hollywood Daily May 13, 2026 Full Review The Electric Kiss (2026) 59% EDIT “The Electric Kiss may not be “electric” cinema itself, but as a Cannes opener it does the job and fits the bill nicely.” – Deadline Hollywood Daily May 12, 2026 Full Review The Sheep Detectives (2026) 94% EDIT “Family films these days are generally reduced to animation, rarely live action, at least those that might appeal to every member of the family, but the whimsical and wonderful The Sheep Detectives is that rarity.” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Apr 27, 2026 Full Review Michael (2026) 39% EDIT “This guy channels Uncle Michael in uncanny ways, and simply sells this performance with all the right dance moves and sharp dramatic talent to make us believe Michael Jackson is once again with us.” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Apr 21, 2026 Full Review Outcome (2026) 28% EDIT “Where Hill gets his mojo to work is letting an exceptional cast do their thing and lift these episodic encounters to a level the script doesn’t provide.” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Apr 14, 2026 Full Review Mother Mary (2026) 71% EDIT “Lowery takes this situation and makes it weirdly mesmerizing with the help of two exceptional stars.” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Apr 14, 2026 Full Review The Drama (2026) 76% EDIT “As for the stars they could not be better, especially Pattinson who shows levels of vulnerability I have not noticed before. His journey into the dark side with his financee is pitch perfect.” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Mar 31, 2026 Full Review Our Hero, Balthazar (2025) 94% EDIT “Try as hard as you might to resist this oddball pairing, the superb acting of Martell (also a producer) and a transformative Butterfield simply will not allow you to look away. ” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Mar 26, 2026 Full Review Their Town (2026) 90% EDIT “The flow of the words, not fists, is what makes this small but lovely little indie work so well.” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Mar 24, 2026 Full Review Campeón Gabacho (2026) EDIT “It is a film ultimately unique, moving and given real importance at this dark time for immigrants just like Liborio.” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Mar 24, 2026 Full Review Sender (2026) 53% EDIT “This is a promising debut for Goldman, who has found a way to take the more limited constraints of his short and to give it the purpose and time to thrive. It is a head-scratcher, but one well worth scratching.” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Mar 18, 2026 Full Review The Saviors (2026) 67% EDIT “I was never sure if [Kevin Hamedani] means this to be more comedic than thriller, but still I had a pretty good time, even if it could have been so much more.” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Mar 18, 2026 Full Review Chili Finger (2026) 80% EDIT “Chili Finger doesn’t rewrite the rules, but with a cast having a blast, it modestly provides a good ol’ time.” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Mar 18, 2026 Full Review Family Movie (2026) 92% EDIT “There can be no question the Bacons are having a hell of a good time not only sending up this well-traveled genre but also deliciously adding more buckets of blood to it.” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Mar 14, 2026 Full Review Seekers of Infinite Love (2026) 80% EDIT “Apart from Strouse’s smart and funny script, what makes this little gem hum are the performances starting with Einbinder, who is a complete natural onscreen, just as she is in Hacks. ” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Mar 13, 2026 Full Review Project Hail Mary (2026) 94% EDIT “A movie made for IMAX, Project Hail Mary is mission accomplished, an entertaining and engaging piece of science fiction that suggests even though we may be worlds apart, in order to save us from ourselves we must band together now more than ever.” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Mar 10, 2026 Full Review THE BRIDE! (2026) 57% EDIT “Gyllenhaal proves after an impressive but much smaller directing debut with 2021’s The Lost Daughter (also with Buckley) that she can handle a movie on a very big scale with even bigger ideas. ” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Mar 4, 2026 Full Review Scream 7 (2026) 31% EDIT “It may have taken 30 years for Williamson to finally get to steer his own ship, but with Scream 7 it proves well worth the wait. Fans will approve.” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Feb 26, 2026 Full Review Jane Austen's Period Drama (2024) EDIT “Jane Austen’s Period Drama is entertaining enough but basically a one-joke premise telegraphed by the cute title.” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Feb 24, 2026 Full Review Butcher's Stain (2025) EDIT “Meyer Levinson-Blount’s compelling Butcher’s Stain feels a bit unremarkable until we really see where this is going, a subtle comment on the fraught tensions in the Middle East but played on a simple human level.” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Feb 24, 2026 Full Review A Friend of Dorothy (2025) EDIT “Margolyes is an acting treasure, but then we knew that didn’t we? She is perfectly matched with the promising Nwachukwu, who makes a strong impression against a true pro here. It’s a charmer. ” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Feb 24, 2026 Full Review The Singers (2026) 90% EDIT “Ultimately, The Singers lifts our spirits with hope for humanity and the common good in life.” – Deadline Hollywood Daily Feb 24, 2026 Full Review
