A private user reviewed Rose of Nevada (2026)

Rose of Nevada

If you saw Mark Jenkin's "Enys Men" then you might have an idea what to expect in this similarly photographed and styled mystery. This time, it's a Cornish fishing boat called the "Rose of Nevada" which has a reputation mired in suspense that serves as the focal point. It requires a crew of three and those consist the enigmatic captain (Francis Magee), "Liam" (Callum Turner) and "Nick" (George MacKay). The latter needs the money after his attempt to fix the leaky kitchen roof left him and his family with a man-sized ...

A private user reviewed Honey Don't! (2025)

Honey Don't!

Is anyone familiar with the antics of Chad Allen’s “Donald Strachey”? Well this time, it’s a lesbian PI who is following the same sort of “Nancy Drew” type mystery as “Honey” (Margaret Qualley) looks into some murderous goings on. Luckily the police are keen to play ball and so share what limited information they have via the optimistically flirtatious “Marty” (Charlie Day) above ground and the far more appealing “MG” (Aubrey Plaza) in charge of the records section. Things all seem to centre around the evangelical ramblings of the charismatic “Rev ...

A private user reviewed Eternity (2025)

Eternity

Life can sometimes present us with hard choices. However, according to the latest feature from writer-director David Freyne, death can hand us some even bigger ones. That’s the dilemma posed to Joan Cutler (Elizabeth Olsen), who passes away after a long and happy life. But, once in the afterlife, she faces a task that’s not at all what she expected, given the unforeseen nature of what eternity turns out to be. It turns out that the deceased get to pick the form of eternity that they wish to experience, one drawn ...

Is This Thing On?

FULL SPOILER-FREE REVIEW @ https://fandomwire.com/is-this-thing-on-review/

"Is This Thing On? is the unexpected festival gem that demonstrates Bradley Cooper's masterful control over the form and heart of the story.

It's a film that surprises with its authenticity, balancing raw humor with sincere pain thanks to the brilliant performances of Will Arnett and Laura Dern. Visually enriched by the intimate cinematography ...

A private user reviewed The Drama (2026)

The Drama

With just one week to go until their nuptials, the partially deaf 'Emma' (Zendaya) and 'Charlie' (Robert Pattinson) are nervously anticipating the big day. Planning is still incomplete as they sit down with friends 'Rachel' (Alana Haim) and her husband 'Mike' (Mamoudou Athie) for the onerous task of selecting the menu. The mushroom risotto seems to be a winner, though quite what was wrong with his idea of a cheeseburger I don't know, and so they turn their thoughts to the wine. A little tipsy, they begin to play a game ...

A private user reviewed Deathstalker (2025)

Deathstalker

Holy shit. The perfect Deathstalker film. I am just amazed by how well the lead handles the situations. I must say, they should hire my buddy to make them some silicon masks because the foam sure seems lifeless on a lead. Some pretty weak little dude effects all around. The thing about practical effects is even if they're bad you get to see the creative decisions they had to make based on budget. If the CGI is bad...you just feel disappointed.

War Machine

March 9, 2011 (Holy !@#$, I feel old.)

> When once distant UFOs become a terrifying threat and an alien invasion force begins attacking Earths major costal and riverside cities, a U.S Marine staff sergeant and his team are sent into battle only to find they must take it upon themselves to defeat an unknown enemy and protect what remains of Los Angeles.

The Thursday Murder Club

FULL SPOILER-FREE REVIEW @ talkingfilms.net/the-thursday-murder-club-review-stellar-cast-forgettable-mystery/

"The Thursday Murder Club is a formulaic and forgettable effort. It's not a disaster - the magnetic presence of the cast ensures it never sinks that low - but it also offers nothing we haven't already seen in second-tier television productions ...

Night Always Comes

FULL SPOILER-FREE REVIEW @ https://movieswetextedabout.com/night-always-comes-review-vanessa-kirby-shines-in-a-film-that-fumbles-its-potential/

"Night Always Comes falls short of its ambition. There's a powerful story here - the moral erosion provoked by systems that always fail the same people - but the film never finds the most impactful way to tell it ...

A private user reviewed The Death of Robin Hood (2026)

The Death of Robin Hood

"Robin" (Hugh Jackman) has entered into a sort of solitary retirement, living from a cave and spurning - or worse - any companionship. Then his old pal from the green wood, "Little John" (Bill Skarsgård) turns up seeking his help to reclaim a farm he stole from it's rightful owner years ago so he can reunite with his wife and daughter. That goes smoothly enough, but they don't reckon on the power of old grudges and barely has the sun set on their murderous achievements than the whole place is afire ...

A private user reviewed Legend of the White Dragon (2026)

Legend of the White Dragon

*Legend of the White Dragon* is like *The Crow* of *Power Rangers* films, and you can feel it was trying to build toward a sequel or six if this proved successful. It is worth seeing as a sendoff for Jason David Frank, as his on-screen presence is still mesmerizing. Honestly, the best part of the film is the behind-the-scenes footage shown after the credits because you see Jason David Frank interacting with peers and being himself. You can understand why he’s so missed as an actor, a family man, and a ...

A private user reviewed Eddington (2025)

Eddington

Wow. A lot to process and unpack. _Eddington_ received rapturous applause and huge moments of laughter at Sydney Film Festival. It’s chaotic, freewheeling and incredibly funny. Yes - it is Aster’s best film.

Aster has made an unhinged social satire on the culture wars - the division, virtue signalling and general disingenuousness. And he does so with sub-machine gun precision, much like the one that appears in the final act. Aster’s is a scattershot approach ...

A private user reviewed Violent Night 2 (2026)

Violent Night 2

The trailer for *Violent Night 2* looks like another wildly entertaining dose of Christmas chaos. David Harbour returning as Santa, with Kristen Bell joining the action, is a great combination—and the mall setting sounds perfect for this kind of over-the-top holiday mayhem.

I’m definitely curious to see how Santa handles his latest mission. ?? ...

A private user reviewed Hedda (2025)

Hedda

**Awful acting**

I am sorry but tessa thompson is a terrible lead actress. I saw her try to act in this movie as well as West World and she needs to find a new day job. My husband actually started laughing out loud at one of her "serious" scenes. Movie was pretty crummy anyway, I don't think a different lead actress would have saved it.

Hamnet

FULL SPOILER-FREE REVIEW @ https://fandomwire.com/hamnet-review/

"Hamnet is a true work of art that, despite its slow march and some more challenging moments for the uninitiated, rewards perseverance.

It's a film about how pain destroys, but also about the miracle of how art can serve as a vessel for redemption or, at least, for understanding. Chloé Zhao took an empty ...

Chainsaw Man - The Movie: Reze Arc

I'm convinced MAPPA got some blackmail stuff on their employees because HOW THE FUCK did they animate these scenes cuh.

And I speak for **EVERYONE** when I say that **WE** will let Reze manipulate us and take advantage of us.
Imagine you clapping them crazy cheeks and right wen u boutta buss she whispers in ...

A private user reviewed Osiris (2025)

Osiris

Its been a long while since I've enjoyed a sci action fiction film, as much as "Osiris".

Obviously inspired by films like "Alien(s) and "Predator" (the originals not the horrible woke remixes), this film builds in extra elements, that are genuinely creative and add depth. For instance, having the aliens act a lot like human special forces, with gear that's familiar but adapted to reflect their status as an advanced, if brutal, race ...

A private user reviewed Worldbreaker (2025)

Worldbreaker

I can but question the underlying messsage offered up in"Worldbreaker". If there was a war and all the men were used up, who would fight? This film pushes a tale where women should "step up" and "save the world". Its a message that coincidentally fits in with the current Western establishment's narrative about the "threat", from the likes of Russia and China. A threat that has little basis in fact but could still be seen through to fruition, if they advance a war mongering agenda. Of course too, there actually are ...

Dust Bunny

FULL SPOILER-FREE REVIEW @ https://movieswetextedabout.com/dust-bunny-movie-review-mads-mikkelsen-and-sophie-sloan-elevate-a-familiar-tale/

"Dust Bunny doesn't reinvent the wheel or say something profoundly new about grief and trauma, but it manages to be a satisfying experience. It's a "silly" film in its conception, and its VFX might not dazzle, but it's all executed with evident affection and clarity of purpose ...

A private user reviewed Iron Lung (2026)

Iron Lung

The film’s slow burn wouldn’t feel so staggering if it built to something wholly worthwhile. The blood, hallucinations, and sea creature are all great, but they’re too fleeting to make a lasting impact. Iron Lung promises something grand and cosmic, but its climactic reveal is abrupt, with few scares and only a brief glimpse of the monster. Ultimately, it’s two hours of tension that end in a bloody yet unsatisfying climax.
