Ready or Not 2: Here I Come (2026) Dan Scully A blood-soaked, needledrop-laden, crowd-pleasing horror comedy, all of which rests on the capable shoulders of Samara Weaving, whose ability to scream with rage (and willingness to be drenched in blood) is second to none.

Retirement Plan (2024) Dan Scully It’s cute, quippy, and fun, but not without the melancholic presence of knowledge that death comes for us all, and for many of us, it comes before we retire. Best to get busy living instead of writing cheeky capsule reviews of short films.
Posted Mar 14, 2026  Edit critic review
Butterfly (2024) Dan Scully A level of surrealism that, for all the real world material of the story, lends itself to the beautiful haze of long term memory.

The Girl Who Cried Pearls (2025) Dan Scully Is it stop-motion? CGI? Both? Whatever it is, it’s truly marvelous to behold.

Forevergreen (2025) Dan Scully It’s cute enough, and feels as Disney adjacent as can be on just about every level.
Posted Mar 14, 2026  Edit critic review
The Three Sisters (2024) Dan Scully A marvel of minimalist animation.
Posted Mar 14, 2026  Edit critic review
Jane Austen's Period Drama (2024) Dan Scully An odd choice for awards love, as it feels much more like an SNL sketch than a film, but it pleases me to see something so aggressively silly on the Academy’s radar.
Posted Mar 12, 2026  Edit critic review
Two People Exchanging Saliva (2024) Dan Scully A Vonnegut-esque satire that employs its absurdities to strong thematic ends.
Posted Mar 12, 2026  Edit critic review
Butcher's Stain (2025) Dan Scully We’ve seen so many pieces of art about the larger social forces at play, and it’s fascinating to see how they trickle down to a simple workplace drama.

A Friend of Dorothy (2025) Dan Scully Well-constructed, but otherwise insufferable. I’m dizzy from all the eye-rolling.
Posted Mar 12, 2026  Edit critic review
The Singers (2026) Dan Scully It’s a sweet-natured film, albeit a forgettable one, that doesn’t have much by way of thematic depth.
Posted Mar 12, 2026  Edit critic review
undertone (2025) Dan Scully Hearkens back to the early days of the internet when me and my buddies would seek out creepy audio and video at 2AM in my parents’ basement.
Posted Mar 11, 2026  Edit critic review
Project Hail Mary (2026) Dan Scully Even with the uneven pacing and the fact that the APOCALYPTIC EVENT feels like a non-entity (and suspenseful scenes aren’t all that suspenseful as a result), it’s hard not to get wrapped up in a film so visually arresting.
Posted Mar 11, 2026  Edit critic review
THE BRIDE! (2026) Dan Scully Despite overflowing with ambition, the “too much” feeling is ultimately an asset. What I’m saying is that Gyllenhaal took a bunch of disparate pieces, assembled them into a monster, and then shot it full of electricity. How appropriate!
Posted Mar 06, 2026  Edit critic review
How to Make a Killing (2026) Dan Scully A good movie that should’ve been great, and a great portfolio booster for both Glen Powell and Margaret Qualley. It’s also a reminder that Topher Grace needs to be in more things.
Posted Feb 23, 2026  Edit critic review
Wuthering Heights (2026) Dan Scully Our leads don’t commit to mutual destruction in any compelling way. They just kinda glare at each other here and there, sometimes in a field. It’s weird and boring. You promised Victorian Jerry Springer. GIVE ME VICTORIAN JERRY SPRINGER.

The Moment (2026) Dan Scully Often clever, and decidedly no-holds-barred, even if it leads to an unoriginal, painfully didactic ending.
Posted Feb 17, 2026  Edit critic review
The Wrecking Crew (2026) Dan Scully It’s the type of stuff that you take a break from folding laundry to look at for a minute while thinking "oh cool, the pictures are moving," before returning to your chores. This is, quite sadly, exactly what the filmmakers intended.
Posted Feb 01, 2026  Edit critic review
Shelter (2026) Dan Scully You know the drill. You’ve seen this movie 100 times, and 75 of those times it starred Jason Statham.
Posted Feb 01, 2026  Edit critic review
Mercy (2026) Dan Scully The high-concept execution is used well enough that the increasingly hare-brained plot developments all feel par for the course.
Posted Feb 01, 2026  Edit critic review
28 Years Later: The Bone Temple (2026) Dan Scully What we find here is a tale of science vs. faith, of humility vs. ego, of memento mori vs. cult of personality.
Posted Jan 18, 2026  Edit critic review
Greenland 2: Migration (2026) Dan Scully Good news for people who want to hear ol’ Gerry Butts yelling a word that’s wholly incompatible with his mouth (it’s "marauders"), but bad news for anyone looking for anything beyond surface level thrills.
Posted Jan 11, 2026  Edit critic review
Dead Man's Wire (2025) Dan Scully Compelling, but it doesn’t necessarily merit a big screen adaptation.
Posted Jan 08, 2026  Edit critic review
Song Sung Blue (2025) Dan Scully All the familiar beats of a music biopic are hit: addiction, tragedy, finding strength and redemption through song — yet the way the film hits these beats breaks the formula in novel ways, and does so without feeling contrived or manipulative.

Marty Supreme (2025) Dan Scully I’m not lying when I say the film’s final moment brought forth unexpected tears, and not just because of the sudden deceleration from a movie that cruised along at 500 mph for 2.5 hours.

Avatar: Fire and Ash (2025) Dan Scully Very little new ground is covered with any of the characters or their relationships. It’s just a series of excuses to throw yet another battle sequence on screen and let it rock our world for a few minutes (which it never fails to do).
Posted Dec 16, 2025  Edit critic review
Zodiac Killer Project (2025) Dan Scully A much needed deflation for what has become an increasingly sensational (and stale) genre.
Posted Nov 29, 2025  Edit critic review
The Running Man (2025) Dan Scully It’s a credit to Wright that the massive ensemble and sprawling plot never feel unwieldy. I just wish that he risked some behind-the-camera unwieldiness — this is an uncharacteristically safe movie.

Reflection in a Dead Diamond (2025) Dan Scully The imagery is all familiar, but here its synthesized into a whole that is greater than the sum of its parts.
Posted Nov 10, 2025  Edit critic review
Barrio Triste (2025) Dan Scully A portrait of a chaotic life; a life where nothing is ordinary, and thus the extraordinary is as accepted and expected as anything else.
Posted Nov 10, 2025  Edit critic review
Primate (2025) Dan Scully A non-stop cavalcade of tension, brutality, and absolutely killer practical effects.
Posted Oct 28, 2025  Edit critic review
Frankenstein (2025) Dan Scully Del Toro manages to put his own spin on the material. Namely, he tones down the “playing God” aspect of the text and replaces it with a “playing Dad” thematic element, mostly to great success.
Posted Oct 28, 2025  Edit critic review
Nouvelle Vague (2025) Dan Scully It’s like traveling through time to be a fly on the wall of film history.
Posted Oct 26, 2025  Edit critic review
Blue Moon (2025) Dan Scully Theater nerds will adore every second of this film, which is chock full of Easter eggs and industry references, but not so much that a casual viewer can’t appreciate its charms.
Posted Oct 26, 2025  Edit critic review
The Mastermind (2025) Dan Scully A story about a guy who wanted exactly what he got, and quickly discovered that he never should have wanted it in the first place.

LifeHack (2025) Dan Scully Who says you need slick outfits and an EMP to steal a ton of money with your buddies?
Posted Oct 24, 2025  Edit critic review
Dead Giveaway (2025) Gary M. Kramer Writer/director Ian Kimble’s debut feature Dead Giveaway—expanded from his short—is more playful than scary, which works in its favor.
Posted Oct 23, 2025  Edit critic review
Hysteria (2025) Dan Scully This is a film that rewards a patient viewer. It’s the “frog in boiling water” metaphor in cinema form.
Posted Oct 22, 2025  Edit critic review
Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery (2025) Dan Scully One hopes that Johnson continues to make these movies in perpetuity, but that with the next entry he attempts to break the mold.
Posted Oct 22, 2025  Edit critic review
Bugonia (2025) Dan Scully The interstitials which show imagery of an increasingly flattened Earth remove any thematic subtlety — and let’s face it, subtlety is not in the Lanthimos playbook.
Posted Oct 15, 2025  Edit critic review
If I Had Legs I'd Kick You (2025) Dan Scully It’s parenthood as psychological horror, and it’s one of the most difficult movies I’ve seen in quite some time. I highly recommend it, and no, I will not watch it with you. I’ve had my fill of stressors for the week.
Posted Oct 15, 2025  Edit critic review
Pater Noster and the Mission of Light (2024) Dan Scully By the time the wheels are off and blood is spraying and limbs are getting chopped and everyone is chanting, well, who could resist?
Posted Oct 11, 2025  Edit critic review
Head Like a Hole (2024) Dan Scully A showcase of how clever staging and an imaginative concept can transcend budgetary barriers.
Posted Oct 10, 2025  Edit critic review
Mooch (2025) Dan Scully The laughs come regularly and quickly, and the mystery compels. At no point does the story’s convolutions feel contrived.
Posted Oct 10, 2025  Edit critic review
TRON: Ares (2025) Dan Scully An intermittently exciting chase flick that has nothing interesting to say about artificial intelligence, capitalism, or anything, really.
Posted Oct 08, 2025  Edit critic review
Anything That Moves (2025) Dan Scully There’s an open-mindedness that is lovely to behold: just about every permutation of age/gender/body type is represented.
Posted Oct 08, 2025  Edit critic review
The Oracle (1986) Dan Scully A true “lost” gem that features everything genre enthusiasts love all under one roof.
Posted Oct 06, 2025  Edit critic review
The Smashing Machine (2025) Dan Scully An exercise in crafting a biopic that is neither hagiographic nor condemnatory — a mode that suits Safdie’s overall style/tone of storytelling.
Posted Oct 02, 2025  Edit critic review
V/H/S Halloween (2025) Dan Scully One of the most consistent hit ratios so far — every segment is a banger.
Posted Sep 30, 2025  Edit critic review
Good Boy (2025) Dan Scully Instead of a perilous, shrieky vibe, the unique POV gives the film more of a curious and inquisitive tone.
