AVATAR: FIRE AND ASH is ambitious storytelling on a grand and epic scale! Breathtaking visuals and action spectacles dominate our third visit to Pandora and the introduction of the Ash tribe (led-by Oona Chaplin) is an excellent addition to the franchise that’s ablaze with style

Bravo Josh Safdie! Easily one of the best, funniest, and most entertaining films of 2025. Marty Mauser is about to take the World by-storm: Timothée Chalamet is about to win his first Academy Award, but Odessa A’Zion and Gwyneth Paltrow truly deserve recognition as well @a24movies.bsky.social
MARTY SUPREME is an exhilarating, hilarious, and chaotic cautionary tale on pride, ambition, and greed that’s non-stop entertainment. Timothée Chalamet is phenomenal, capturing Marty’s naive innocence, confidence, and morality brilliantly. One of the best films of the year!

Bi Gan’s RESURRECTION is an incredible, ambitious experience that eliminates the limitations and boundaries of filmmaking and storytelling. It’s a beautiful example of a director’s fully-realized idea that’s haunting and unconventional, but dripping with originality and style

STRANGER THINGS 5: Vol. 1 is a captivating and entertaining opening chapter but it also reminds us why we fell in-love with this show in the first place: the characters and their bonds, the setting, and the thrills. And it’s jaw-dropping climax perfectly sets-the-stage for Vol. 2

ZOOTOPIA 2 is cute, funny, and charming; a welcome return for Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde fresh-off their city saving adventure and facing a brand new set of challenges. The humor and heart are strong once again, alongside a great cast and important central messages. And THAT classic film homage!

SONG SUNG BLUE is a rousing, infectious crowdpleaser with a rich emotional core; an uplifting and heartbreaking retelling of “Thunder & Lightning’s” tragic story. Hugh Jackman and Kate Hudson are excellent, sharing a pulsating chemistry that elevates each other’s performances

SOUND OF FALLING is an intricately-woven story of a German farm house and its inhabitants throughout multiple generations. The film explores both the complexities of adolescence and inherited trauma/memory, as well as the cultural customs that are practiced through the years

WICKED: FOR GOOD is an entertaining and magical culmination even with its flaws, which it has a few (pacing is a BIG one). Cynthia and Ariana are magnificent once again and the look and feel of Oz jumps-off the screen. The nostalgic moments were handled well too, in my opinion

RENTAL FAMILY is the feel-good movie of the year! A beautiful and touching story about humanity and the power of the relationships we form with others and their immense impact. Brendan Fraser gives a heartwarming performance that captures the essence of the film perfectly
