Driver's Ed (2025) 71% 2.5/4 EDIT “Everyone in the cast is up to the task here. Now if only they could have been handed a set of keys to a smoother ride geared to show off their talents. ” – San Jose Mercury News May 14, 2026 Full Review The Wizard of the Kremlin (2025) 47% 2/4 EDIT “Assayas is a great filmmaker, but seems hamstrung by this being a film, not a series. ” – San Jose Mercury News May 14, 2026 Full Review Silent Friend (2025) 98% 3/5 EDIT “There’s much to admire and to revel in up onscreen. ” – San Jose Mercury News May 14, 2026 Full Review LifeHack (2025) 97% 3/4 EDIT “LifeHack is one of the best examples of the sub-genre and should open more doors for a promising new filmmaker and a versatile young cast. ” – San Jose Mercury News May 14, 2026 Full Review Blue Film (2025) 94% 3.5/4 EDIT “It’s a star-making performance in a brave first feature designed to provoke while it excavates taboo topics and gives us an uncensored seat to observe how trauma chews us up.” – San Jose Mercury News May 14, 2026 Full Review Obsession (2025) 95% 3.5/5 EDIT “It’s hard to mind that it’s a “Monkey Paw’s” tale that has been told many, many times. Not when Barker employs it to strip the male psyche down to its basics, illustrating how deep-seated insecurities can swallow us whole. ” – San Jose Mercury News May 14, 2026 Full Review Is God Is (2026) 98% 4/4 EDIT “Harris directs with a ferocity that you can’t ignore and chews up the patriarchy and then lets out a collective, cathartic scream on behalf of Black women who are fed up with the wrongs that life throws at them and with being told how to deal with it all.” – San Jose Mercury News May 12, 2026 Full Review Agon (2025) 3/4 EDIT “While it’s hard to emotionally connect with these athletes due to the style of filmmaking, Bertelli’s innovatively shot feature looks at the roots of these athletic pursuits and how they’re turned into video game-like experiences.” – San Jose Mercury News May 7, 2026 Full Review Two Women (2025) 77% 3/4 EDIT “Robichaud is most interested in the liberating journey of these two women as they get in touch with what makes them happy, both in bed and out. It’s frisky fun. ” – San Jose Mercury News May 7, 2026 Full Review Blue Heron (2025) 97% 3.5/4 EDIT “Romvari does an effective job of highlighting the fragility of our remembrances and how the actions from the past affect us to this day.” – San Jose Mercury News May 7, 2026 Full Review Swapped (2026) 67% 2.5/4 EDIT “The plot itself isn’t extraordinary but the critters populating this forest wonderland are.” – San Jose Mercury News May 7, 2026 Full Review Our Hero, Balthazar (2025) 94% 3.5/4 EDIT “Taken all together, “Our Hero, Balthazar” is a button pusher that holds up a mirror to America and asks what is performative and what is real. It also dwells on how we can get out of this quicksand trap that young men are trapped in right now. ” – San Jose Mercury News May 7, 2026 Full Review The Sheep Detectives (2026) 94% 3/4 EDIT “Anerdy but handsome bumbling journalist, a fast-talking, fashion-forward lawyer, and a sad, ostracized little lamb that will steal your heart, and you have a sweet, heartwarming comedy with a decent mystery everyone in the family will fawn over. ” – San Jose Mercury News May 7, 2026 Full Review That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime the Movie: Tears of the Azure Sea (2026) 80% 3/4 EDIT “Director Yasuhito Kikuchi’s stand-alone movie catches you up on the mythology enough to keep up with a diverting, one-off fantasy adventure that throws everything into its blender.” – San Jose Mercury News Apr 30, 2026 Full Review Everyone Is Lying to You for Money (2025) 100% 3/4 EDIT “All of that might sound a little dense, but McKenzie’s fast and informative account of his deep dive into a blurry subject turns out to be one of the most entertaining, and yes, enlightening documentaries of the year. ” – San Jose Mercury News Apr 30, 2026 Full Review Animal Farm (2025) 27% 2.5/4 EDIT “It’s suitable family entertainment, though. Just don’t go in expecting a literal adaptation of the literary classic. ” – San Jose Mercury News Apr 30, 2026 Full Review Hokum (2026) 89% 3/4 EDIT “Hokum works and weaves a weird spell that might not spook you so much as haunt you later on as you replay how puzzle-like the pieces fit together.” – San Jose Mercury News Apr 30, 2026 Full Review Deep Water (2026) 71% 2.5/4 EDIT “Aaron Eckhart keeps things afloat as Kingsley’s heroic co-pilot. He’s there to save the day even if his toiling efforts can’t entirely prevent this dumb but enjoyable movie from treading water. ” – San Jose Mercury News Apr 30, 2026 Full Review The Devil Wears Prada 2 (2026) 78% 2/4 EDIT “Yes, it is indeed a pleasure to hang out with these characters again, and there are a few good laughs here and there. But The Devil Wears Prada 2 feels like it came off the rack before it was ready. It feels about as groundbreaking as florals in spring. ” – San Jose Mercury News Apr 29, 2026 Full Review Michael (2026) 39% 2/4 EDIT “Either way, there is no denying that “Michael” only scratches the surface of Michael the troubled person, even though it does a commendable job of showcasing Michael the star performer.” – San Jose Mercury News Apr 23, 2026 Full Review The Blue Trail (2025) 100% 3.5/4 EDIT “Mascaro’s film charts a unique course itself and does so in under 90 minutes. Mascaro is in full control as is his main star for a triumph about overcoming the odds and fighting back against a culture that wants to throw the elderly overboard. ” – San Jose Mercury News Apr 23, 2026 Full Review Fuze (2025) 73% 3/4 EDIT “Mackenzie never takes the weight off the pedal off this twisty, hyper-efficient thriller that comes fully loaded with eye candy and a gutsy plot detour in its final act. Put the brain on mute and just enjoy.” – San Jose Mercury News Apr 23, 2026 Full Review I Swear (2025) 97% 3/4 EDIT “At over two hours, it is too long and could have been easily shortened, but it’s well done and moving. ” – San Jose Mercury News Apr 23, 2026 Full Review Over Your Dead Body (2026) 68% 3/4 EDIT “The pairing of “Ready or Not’s” Weaving with “Shrinking” star Segel sparks huge laughs with both actors going all out during the outrageous ouch-inducing fights they have with each other and three unexpected cabin guests.” – San Jose Mercury News Apr 23, 2026 Full Review Touch Me (2025) 84% 3/4 EDIT “If you’re like me and stick with it and go on to embrace its unbridled spirit you’re in for a good hypnotic time.” – San Jose Mercury News Apr 15, 2026 Full Review
