Ready or Not 2: Here I Come (2026) 76% EDIT “One could slice and dice further, but as second helpings go, Here I Come proves a reliably amusing bloodbath, particularly for those who like their violent mayhem served with stinging comic twists.” – Denerstein Unleashed Mar 18, 2026 Full Review Reminders of Him (2026) 56% EDIT “All drama hinges on some sort of contrivance; in Reminders of Him, they're awfully transparent. ” – Denerstein Unleashed Mar 12, 2026 Full Review undertone (2025) 72% EDIT “When it's all said and done, though, the movie doesn't dig deeply enough into what increasingly seems like an accumulation of familiar genre tropes.” – Denerstein Unleashed Mar 12, 2026 Full Review Waiting for Guffman (1996) 91% 3.5/4 EDIT “A very funny mock documentary...” – Denver Rocky Mountain News Mar 11, 2026 Full Review RoboCop 2 (1990) 31% EDIT “The excessive violence of "RoboCop 2" is less troubling than the fact that the final chorus of mayhem has no suspenseful rhythm.” – Denver Rocky Mountain News Mar 10, 2026 Full Review Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man (2026) 91% EDIT “When a graying Tommy rides into Small Heath on a black horse, the movie offers a mix of nostalgia and stirring imager... Sure we've seen it before, but this, after all, is Tommy Shelby.” – Denerstein Unleashed Mar 9, 2026 Full Review THE BRIDE! (2026) 57% EDIT “Eclectic to the max, The Bride! practically drowns itself in movie love as it tries to match Buckley's expressions of unrestrained wildness.” – Denerstein Unleashed Mar 5, 2026 Full Review Hoppers (2026) 93% EDIT “Toward the end, the movie probably overindulges its action inclinations, but not enough to spoil a mostly enjoyable hunk of animation. ” – Denerstein Unleashed Mar 5, 2026 Full Review Jimpa (2025) 53% EDIT “Gently assembled, Jimpa tackles difficult issues and avoids drawing harsh lines in the sand, but it never finds a solid core around which the confusion of its characters can swirl. ” – Denerstein Unleashed Mar 3, 2026 Full Review The President's Cake (2025) 99% EDIT “The President’s Cake reveals the harsh realities of a society in which scarcity and cruelty have been normalized. ” – Denerstein Unleashed Feb 26, 2026 Full Review A Poet (2025) 100% EDIT “Soto's small-scale realism suits material about someone whose life can't, and probably never will, match the way he sees himself, but it lands gently enough to be touching. ” – Denerstein Unleashed Feb 20, 2026 Full Review How to Make a Killing (2026) 43% EDIT “Loosely inspired by the 1949 Ealing comedy classic Kind Hearts and Coronets, How to Make a Killing needed more bite, satirical sting, and genuine shock. ” – Denerstein Unleashed Feb 19, 2026 Full Review Pillion (2025) 99% EDIT “Yes, there’s humor here, and yes, the performances are well-adapted to the material, but I don’t know how much can be gained from its collection of abuse and degradation, even if the movie's characters are eager to immerse themselves in it.” – Denerstein Unleashed Feb 19, 2026 Full Review Crime 101 (2026) 88% EDIT “You may find plot holes along the way,...and its LA gloss can feel vaguely familiar. But Layton's screenplay teases us with a nice collection of conflicting rooting interests, and its characters are interesting enough to keep Crime 101 on track.” – Denerstein Unleashed Feb 12, 2026 Full Review Wuthering Heights (2026) 57% EDIT “I admired the audaciousness of Fennell’s previous work (Promising Young Woman and Saltburn) but found her Wuthering Heights to be a sometimes silly attempt at giving a 19th-century novel some contemporary spin. ” – Denerstein Unleashed Feb 12, 2026 Full Review Dracula (2025) 54% EDIT “I chuckled at some of Besson's conceits and at the richly garnished melodrama he presents, treating Dracula's story as a journey toward an exalted expression of sacrificial love. Romanticism or schmaltz? Maybe both.” – Denerstein Unleashed Feb 5, 2026 Full Review The Moment (2026) 66% EDIT “The Moment benefits from Charli's wild-child presence, but the movie's mockumentary, fly-on-the-wall approach can feel a bit old hat, and I would have appreciated a deeper dive into her music.” – Denerstein Unleashed Feb 4, 2026 Full Review Melania (2026) 11% EDIT “By any critical standards I’m familiar with, I’ll tell you that Melania isn’t much of a documentary; it's more like a plush Life Styles of the Rich and Famous episode that bleeds into a chorus of booming triumphalism centering on Trump’s inauguration.” – Denerstein Unleashed Feb 3, 2026 Full Review Send Help (2026) 93% EDIT “I found it hard not to laugh at a scene involving projectile vomiting. But Raimi smartly wraps the story in a glossy, mainstream package that can be inviting, even reassuring. ” – Denerstein Unleashed Jan 31, 2026 Full Review Arco (2025) 93% EDIT “...the film...layers emotion into the relationship between Arco and Iris, which anchors the story in the language of more conventional animated efforts. Still, a high level of craftsmanship bolsters Bienvenu's efforts, adding plenty of artistic uplift.” – Denerstein Unleashed Jan 31, 2026 Full Review Shelter (2026) 65% EDIT “I guess you could say that Statham and Breathnach give the movie some heart, but relentless action rules with Mason adhering to the school of heroism that says little... and proves inventive with anything that's available to be used as a weapon.” – Denerstein Unleashed Jan 29, 2026 Full Review A Private Life (2025) 81% EDIT “The movie's complexity can become a puzzle that feels unsolved, but Zlotowski, Foster, and a distinctive supporting cast create pieces that amuse, intrigue, and keep the story percolating.” – Denerstein Unleashed Jan 28, 2026 Full Review Lassie (1994) 89% 3/4 EDIT “Decent, if not inspired, family entertainment.” – Denver Rocky Mountain News Jan 26, 2026 Full Review North (1994) 12% 2/4 EDIT “Despite the presence of some sharply funny material, Rob Reiner's "North" quickly goes south.” – Denver Rocky Mountain News Jan 24, 2026 Full Review The Voice of Hind Rajab (2025) 95% EDIT “Although Hania's movie takes place in one setting, it's deftly assembled, and a strong cast recreates the intense efforts of harried volunteers who remind us that innocence, even that of a child, offers no protection from the violence of war. ” – Denerstein Unleashed Jan 23, 2026 Full Review
