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.
IF
IF is one movie that has a terrific cast from Fleming to Reynolds and all the cameos who voice the IFs
The Bikeriders
The Bikeriders isn't a bad film, but it falls short of its potential, which I attribute mainly to writer/director Jeff Nichols.
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.
The Lady from Shanghai
Welles and Hayworth's undeniable chemistry beautifully anchors The Lady From Shanghai, making it a must-watch classic.
Run Lola Run
Run Lola Run is a thinker worthy of discussion and dissection in film classes everywhere.
Deadpool & Wolverine
Reynolds and Jackman, real-life friends who often jest at each other, make a delightful pairing in this film.
