A greatest hits compilation in film form, #MichaelMovie relegates the more complicated parts of the King of Pop's life to the liner notes of history. As superficial as it is, however, Jaafar Jackson's portrayal is worth the price of admission.

A chamber piece that lives and dies by the strength of Anne Hathaway's and Michaela Coel's performances, #MotherMaryMovie starts off self-assured. Ultimately, however, this is one pseudo-spooky tale that's neither terrifying nor substantial.

With its decidedly different spin on the mythology, #LeeCroninsTheMummy doesn't conform to the typical Mummy formula. Still, while the similarities to #EvilDeadRise are easy to see, the result never quite makes good on its disturbing premise.

A strong contender for the year's most divisive film, #TheDrama is a cringe-inducing dark comedy that squeezes every drop of anxiety out of its premise. Still, while some may find it in bad taste, fans of awkward melodrama will be entertained.

Unequivocally bigger in scope and undeniably more ambitious than its predecessor, The #SuperMarioGalaxyMovie is a must-see for fans of The #SuperMarioBrosMovie and a crowd-pleasing love letter to one of Nintendo's most beloved game franchises.

A devilishly fun mash-up of Kill Bill-esque action and slapstick horror à la Evil Dead II, #TheyWillKillYouMovie is one of the most relentlessly entertaining, completely off-the-wall and totally in-your-face films you'll probably see all year.

With no shortage of blood, gore and spontaneously exploding antagonists, #ReadyOrNot2 is a fun horror sequel that doubles down on the mythology of its predecessor, bolstered by another strong performance from its final girl, Samara Weaving.

‘Twas a radical #TorontoComicon catching up with Kenn Scott, François Chau, Brian Tochi & Ernie Reyes Jr. from the original #TMNT films and scoring a ton of awesome comic finds! Can’t wait for #FANEXPOCanada in August! 🤘
From rubber ducks to superheroes who don’t give a f**k, and everything in between, #TorontoComicon has got you covered this weekend! Head on down to the Metro Toronto Convention Centre March 20-22 to get your fandom fix!
With its unique perspective on the AI debate, #TheAIDoc is an eye-opening look at AI's impact on humanity. What viewers should take away, though, isn't merely a better understanding of the subject matter, but rather a desire to get involved.

A spectacularly thrilling interstellar adventure that's part hilarious buddy comedy, part heartfelt drama, #ProjectHailMary is an out-of-this-world journey that will leave audiences hopeful, while also keeping them on the edge of their seats.

What do Jacob Elordi, photo albums and mixtapes have in common? We asked #ParadiseHulu’s Sarah Shahi and Nicole Brydon Bloom about the one thing they would bring with them to a real-life doomsday bunker.

From its bizarre homage to Young Frankenstein to its not-so-subtle #MeToo allegory, #TheBrideMovie often feels as schizophrenic as its title character. Still, it's hard to fault it for attempting to do something fresh with the source material.

A cute and cuddly animated adventure that offers up no shortage of animal-themed humor, #Hoppers blends an endearing coming-of-age story with a powerful environmental message and a cautionary tale about the inherent dangers of technology.

An enjoyable but ultimately uneven sequel, #Scream7 struggles to bring the focus back onto its original final girl. In doing so, though, everything that made the previous two installments so refreshing appears to have been lost in the process.

“Season 1 had a clear mission. And in season 2, the world expands so much. Everyone keeps saying it was never just about the bunker, and that’s really explored this season.”

#HowToMakeAKilling is an underdog tale that viewers can easily root for. What stands out, though, are Glen Powell, Margaret Qualley and Jessica Henwick, who bring just the right amount of charm, sleaze and empathy to their respective roles.

Despite being somewhat formulaic and predictable, #ColdStorage is a gleefully gory and frightfully fun zombie horror that isn't afraid to embrace the inherent silliness of its premise and use its self-awareness of the genre to its advantage.

#WutheringHeightsMovie is gorgeous to behold, and Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi make a handsome on-screen pair. Unfortunately, their characters utterly lack the charm and charisma needed to make viewers empathize with this tragic love story.

A twisted mash-up of Cast Away and Misery, with a dash of Triangle of Sadness thrown in for good measure, #SendHelp delivers precisely the type of cathartic release that makes for a fun, blood-splattered and thrilling time at the multiplex.

One part #MinorityReport, one part #WhoWantsToBeAMillionaire, #MercyMovie squeezes decent thrills out of its paper-thin premise, thanks to an engaging mystery, a handful of entertaining twists, and committed performances from its leads.

A psychedelic adventure that's sure to captivate audiences, #AllYouNeedIsKill is a stylish adaptation and an entertaining addition to the sub-genre of time-loop cinema. For fans of #EdgeOfTomorow, though, it makes for a worthy companion piece.

The most chilling and visceral installment in the fan-favorite and critically acclaimed franchise since Danny Boyle's 2002 original, #28YearsLater: The Bone Temple is a riveting sequel that evokes both horror and empathy for its monsters.

That's a wrap on 2025! And from the elevated horror of #SinnersMovie to the highest-grossing animated film of all time, #NeZha2, it was a compelling year for hardcore cinephiles and casual moviegoers alike.

An underdog sports drama that redefines what the genre can be, #MartySupreme is a non-stop roller coaster ride. Still, for all its jaw-dropping twists and turns, what resonates the most is Timothée Chalamet's hyperkinetic performance.

Undeniably epic in scope and massive in scale, #AvatarFireAndAsh offers moviegoers no shortage of eye candy. But while no expense has been spared bringing Pandora to life, this latest chapter in the #Avatar saga leaves much to be desired.

#KillBillTheWholeBloodyAffair is *the* definitive version of QT’s epic revenge opus. Production I.G’s new anime sequence fleshes out O-Ren Ishii’s backstory in all its blood-splattered glory & the Fortnite-flavored The Lost Chapter is a nifty bonus. 💯 a must-see cinematic event.
The movie musical equivalent of #RevengeOfTheSith, #WickedForGood is an epic conclusion to the #WickedMovie storyline. Still, while Grande and Erivo soar, unless you're a die-hard fan, it will do little to convince you to become an Ozian.

Whether he's tackling action or comedy, Glen Powell proves he's the right man for the job in #RunningManMovie. We find out from director Edgar Wright why the #HitMan and #Twisters star *is* Ben Richards.

What's the common thread linking Ronan in #GotG, Brother Day in #Foundation and Evan McCone in #RunningManMovie? The answer, of course, is Lee Pace. But what makes these villains so enticing to play?
