This might be one of the best looking #Spiderman movies ever made, while also being one of the most traditional stories yet. Cretton crafts a visual spectacle that also serves as a love letter to the big NY and the heart of Spiderman the character, bringing things back to basics. boxd.it/fxZsVt

A ★★★★ review of Spider-Man: Brand New Day (2026)

What a glorious day. This is 100% all natural friendly neighborhood Spider Man. After blipping his secret identity from everyone’s memories, Peter Parker learns to be an independent working adult doin...

Leave it to Nolan to take on one of the most ambitious stories in all of literature and completely make it his own, and not only succeed at it but further the medium in transcendiary ways. It’s a sweeping epic that will take you on a journey and blow you away! #TheOdyssey boxd.it/fhfBmB

Dinner parties can be fun, they can also be utter disasters. Olivia Wilde delivers a highly delectable feast of rage, jealousy, laughter and sadness all within a neat hour and forty seven minute runtime. It's a three course meal you'll want to savor till the very end. #TheInvite boxd.it/ffliwB

A ★★★★½ review of The Invite (2026)

On one hand this is what people want to expect when getting a remake that is already good as is. On the other hand it’s stiff as an oar, stuck following in the footsteps of its predecessor while serving as a vanity project for Johnson who wants no one else to play his role. #Moana boxd.it/faeu3d

A ★★★ review of Moana (2026)

What are we doing here? Remaking into a live action after only 10 years and concurrently while the animated is ongoing? If you need a reason as to why this film exists when nobody was asking for it, y...

The Jackass gang had just enough fuel in the tank for one last hurrah and boy did they deliver a touching tribute to the legacy of idiocracy. The only complaint I really have is that it’s not long enough of a goodbye. #Jackass boxd.it/f1xJwr

A ★★★★½ review of Jackass: Best and Last (2026)

"If this is to be our end, then I would have them make such an end, as to be worthy of remembrance." Jackass will always be forever but this is the best and last of the gang’s legendary hijinks. The e...

Let me tell it to you straight, Stop! That! Train! has its moments of hilarious gag comedy that have us absolutely gagged, but all those celebrity appearances can’t mask how this movie feels like an overlong SNL sketch that overstays it’s welcome just a tad bit. #StopThatTrain boxd.it/eUsHEl

A ★★★ review of Stop! That! Train! (2026)

Start your engines, and may the best drag queen... win! Let me tell it to you straight, Stop! That! Train! has its moments of hilarious gag comedy that have us absolutely gagged, but all those celebri...

30 years later and Pixar still manages to make you feel like a kid even as an adult, and their animation is at peak form here. In a modern new adventure where art mirrors reality a bit more, #ToyStory5 warns of the dangers of the digital age while teaching us all that guidance is key boxd.it/eQPRMf

A ★★★★ review of Toy Story 5 (2026)

Bonnie’s coming!! The toys are back! This time they have to band together to protect their new owner Bonnie from the evils of technology. It was bound to happen eventually in the age we live in. Toys ...

So long as you can overlook the weird English overdubbing and minimal plot, the action is 100% gore fest guilty pleasure. The Raid and John Wick walked so The Furious could follow with some of the best fight choreography in the business. Hong Kong cinema is back! #TheFurious boxd.it/ePAEP7

A ★★★★ review of The Furious (2025)

Hong Kong cinema is back! Following in the footsteps of The Raid, Kenji Tanigaki brings martial art ultraviolence back to the big screen in an intense nonstop blood fest. After his daughter gets kidna...

James Gunn really is the new standard. While it doesn’t exactly reinvent the classic characters it does add some unique character development, fun vibes for sure. Eternia truly comes to life in full vibrancy and Leto’s Skeletor is quite the menacing performance #MastersoftheUniverse boxd.it/eFDCYH

A ★★★½ review of Masters of the Universe (2026)

He has the power! Nicolas Galitzine is He-Man, or more so he is quite an effective Adam. If you had told me He-Man was coming back in 2026 I would’ve rolled my eyes at you and laughed it off. And when...

Always count on John Carney to make an enjoyable film about music. Thanks to the charm of the bass slapper Paul Rudd and JoBro Nick Jonas, Power Ballad is a winner that hits all the notes that make it warm and funny in pursuit of authenticity #PowerBallad boxd.it/eJGFBD

A ★★★★ review of Power Ballad (2026)

Always count on John Carney to make an enjoyable film about music. I’ve been a fan of his work for some time now, ever since Once — I listened to the music at first and then rented the film on iTunes....
