Gunner
Gunner is the type of movie that lacks imagination as the plot is recycled, the music is off the mark and many of the performances are simply mediocre.
My Penguin Friend
My Penguin Friend is a family-friendly, old-fashioned, heart-warming tale that is certain to please audiences of all ages while offering a lesson about nature.
Despicable Me 4
Despicable Me 4, the fourth in the series plus two Minion films, lacks in plot, but its intended audience likely won't mind.
Alien: Romulus
Alien: Romulus is a wild ride that will have your blood pumping from beginning to end.
It Ends With Us
Despite its flaws, It Ends With Us is a must-watch. Its portrayal of abuse, though less violent, evokes strong reactions from audiences.
Deadpool & Wolverine
Reynolds and Jackman, real-life friends who often jest at each other, make a delightful pairing in this film.
Twisters
The incorporation of social media this time around will definitely appeal to younger audiences, but it also makes Tyler come off looking bad.
Fly Me to the Moon
Fly Me to the Moon does a good job balancing the humor with the romance and the serious story of the Apollo 11 rocket launch moments.
MaXXXine
MaXXXine stands out as West's distinct creation, showcasing his unique style choices across all three films.
