Ultimately, Verity is barely a movie; it's a series of montages in which beautiful people whisper at each other, have extremely passionate sex, commit murder, and snarl menacingly while Dakota Johnson reads aloud from a manuscript that might as well be called "The Exposition." It is a tale. Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury. Signifying nothing.

This is original, maverick, visionary filmmaking at its best — in other words, precisely the kind of adult-minded story we need far more of these days.

In terms of real-life figures, Digger is an unholy blend of oil barons, Big Tech CEOs, and the current administration. "Digger" is not a comfortable film by any means, which makes it hard to love.

"Minus Zero" aims higher, dreams bigger, and branches out even wider than "Minus One" ever did — but such ambitions come at a cost. Inevitably, this leads to a somewhat shaggier sequel that sacrifices intimacy for intensity. While not a death blow by any means, what we're left with is a very, very good film falling just short of greatness.

Janus Metz Pedersen's Unabomber is a surprisingly effective Netflix thriller with a slick, stylish aesthetic and some genuinely intense performances that help it rise above your typical direct-to-streaming entertainment. It also unfortunately makes the miscalculation to focus on two different timelines when it should've stuck to one.

A stylish, tense, and deeply thoughtful action thriller about faith, fatherhood, grief, and our innermost of conflicts.

t's a feel-bad movie loaded with slick style and featuring a dynamic, magnetic central performance that you can't look away from. It's approach is occasionally murky and muddy, and yet, it draws us in with a toxic cocktail of dark comedy and discomfort.

Farrelly and his incredible cast, led by the uncanny Anthony Ippolito as Stallone, manage to capture a little "Rocky" magic in the story's telling. They deliver a movie that is a paean to believing in yourself, allowing for that rare moment when an underdog comes out on top.

Cregger has proven he's capable of better movies than this, but Resident Evil is probably his most entertaining movie so far, and that might just be enough in the end. It's hard not to have fun with a movie filled to the brim with exploding heads, mutant babies, and monsters that puke acid. Hey, Halloween is right around the corner, folks. Here's your perfect spooky season treat.

Every so often, you can just sense when a movie is scrambling for a reason to exist. Forget Robin Hood. The Uprising ultimately has nothing interesting to say — about anything, really.
