Movie Review

Daniel Goldhaber’s 'How to Blow Up a Pipeline' is an anxiety-ridden thriller packed with personal stakes and strong direction.

'Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves' is saved thanks to charismatic performances from Chris Pine, Michelle Rodriguez, Justice Smith, and Sophia Lillis.

'Shazam! Fury of the Gods' is an entertaining, albeit clunky sequel that tries to capture the magic of its predecessor.

Chad Stahelski's 'John Wick: Chapter 4' is a rip-roaring good time at the movies, employing some of the most ambitious stuntwork the franchise has seen so far.

Vasilis Katsoupis' 'Inside' is a single-location thriller that relies on Willem Dafoe's dependable talents, but the storytelling lacks a much-needed edge.

'Scream VI' cranks up the gore to another level, but it falls a bit short when it comes to its horror commentary and dramatic storytelling.

Michael B. Jordan's 'Creed III' comes with the thinnest script of the trilogy, but it hits all of the right beats to make for an exciting boxing flick.

Elizabeth Banks' 'Cocaine Bear' goes for a select few gnarly set pieces dripping with blood, but everything surrounding them are entirely forgettable.

'Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania' is the third solo outing for the title character, but it falls short of expectations.

Steven Soderbergh's 'Magic Mike's Last Dance' brings the trilogy to a close on a positive, albeit heavy-handed note. However, Channing Tatum and Salma Hayek deliver great chemistry.

'Of an Age' further establishes Goran Stolevski as a fascinating and diverse filmmaker to keep an eye on, successfully finding the right emotional beats by the film's end.

M. Night Shyamalan's 'Knock at the Cabin' is a thoroughly thrilling adaptation featuring a stunning performance from actor Dave Bautista.

Angus MacLachlan's 'A Little Prayer' features strong performances from Jane Levy and David Strathairn, but its subdued drama transitions to soapy melodramatics.

Raine Allen-Miller's 'Rye Lane' is a lively romantic comedy with stellar chemistry from actors David Jonsson and Vivian Oparah.

Ira Sachs' 'Passages' tells the story of a love triangle in a captivating drama that isn't afraid to show physical and emotional ugliness in narcissism.

Jacqueline Castel's 'My Animal' introduces impressive performances from Bobbi Salvör Menuez and Amandla Stenberg, but the material doesn't do them any favors.

Randall Park's 'Shortcomings' is a funny and irreverent rom-com that probes the many rom-com tropes that have fallen on the genre for many years.

A.V. Rockwell's 'A Thousand and One' is a successful writing and directing feature debut, especially thanks to a powerful performance from Teyana Taylor.

Raven Jackson's 'All Dirt Roads Taste of Salt' is a visual journey that captivates with its stunning cinematography and sound design.

Nicole Holofcener's 'You Hurt My Feelings' is a smartly written and dramatically genuine film that trusts its terrific ensemble cast led by Julia Louis-Dreyfus.
