Compared to the real-life Pitch Perfect , Just Sing  is a new documentary that explores the world of collegiate a cappella. You might think "what is exciting about a cappella?", but once you watch Just Sing , you will understand.  Following real-life students at Southern California University, Just Sing watches at the school club, the SoCal VoCal’s practice for the International Championship of Collegiate A Cappella. Directors Angelique Molina and Abraham Troen are both alumn

Margot (Barbie Ferreira) works as a content moderator for a video-sharing platform, where her job is to filter out disturbing content before it reaches the public. She comes across a series of videos involving mannequins committing brutal murders, and assumes they are likely fake. As more of the videos surface, she begins to suspect they might be real. She drives herself to madness in pursuit of the killer, bringing to light some of her own complicated history with internet f

One day you can be on the top of the world, and the next you have hit rock bottom. Omaha follows a father (John Magaro) and his two young kids on a road trip. However, we learn this is not any old road trip, but one with no end destination. Before leaving, Ella’s (Molly Belle Wright) father asks her, "If there were a fire, what would you stop to grab?" Loading the car up with what they can carry and their dog, Rex, the sheriff is there to bid them goodbye. It slowly becomes c

Ulysses (Bob Odenkirk) comes to Normal, Minnesota to be the interim sheriff, shortly after the town's previous sheriff died. After learning more about the town and meeting the people in it, including Mayor Kibner (Henry Wrinkler), Ulysses starts asking a lot of questions, suspicious of the story about how the sheriff died. He soon finds out that the town isn't as normal as it seems. The film itself, however, makes this clear right away by opening on a scene of the Yakuza send

Messy, lost and broke are three ways to sum up being in your twenties. It's a time of confusion as you graduate from being a kid into young adulthood, forcing you to snap out of this carefree nature. Everywhere you look, it seems everyone has it together, and you are falling apart. This is how we meet Grace (Barbie Ferreira), living with her parents, unemployed, but determined to prove everyone wrong.  A music critic with over 400 articles written at Spin Magazine, Grace is l

"Don't worry, Grandma. It's fun to be dead." Let me start by clearing something up. No! Brendan Fraser is not in this film. Nor is Tom Cruise. In fact, Lee Cronin's The Mummy takes on a more grittier and gnarlier version of the known property that originated back in 1932, when Boris Karloff played the titular role. Cut to 2026 and we have Irish filmmaker, Lee Cronin ( Evil Dead Rise ), stepping into the director's chair and producers, Jason Blum ( Paranormal Activity ) and J

Luna (Storm Reid) and Auguste (Ivy Wolk) are freshman college roommates. What started as a joyous friendship has quickly gone sideways. How sideways? Auguste is currently throwing every last one of Luna's belongings out of their dorm window. Clothes. Trash. Even the air fryer. When that air fryer comes crashing down and takes out a food delivery robot, Dr. Schilling (Sarah Sherman) happens to be walking by. She puts an end to things immediately and calls both girls into her o

Alright, let's talk about The Super Mario Galaxy Movie — and look, I'm going to be upfront with you right off the top: I am a Mario guy. Always have been. So take everything I'm about to say with that in mind. Because here's the thing — if you go into this film as a fan of the franchise, you're probably going to have a good time. And I did. I walked out giving it a solid 7 out of 10. But if you go in looking for a movie — like, an actual story with something meaningful to

Let me tell you about Rob. Rob ( Will Madden) is the kind of guy who plans things. He books restaurants in advance. He reads the reviews. He wanted to propose in Paris, which tells you everything you need to know about Rob: he is a good man, a careful man, a man who believes that love deserves a proper setting. He has a ring. He has a speech, probably. He had a whole vision of how the story was supposed to go. What Rob didn't have was a girlfriend who was anywhere near the s

Departing from his most recent entries of a spy thriller and a ghost story, director Steven Soderbergh brings to life the world of two very different artists in his new film, The Christophers. From threatening to retire from directing to popping out three films in just over a year is impressive for any director, but doing three completely different genres proves why Soderbergh is one of today’s modern classic directors. A black comedy, The Christophers does a fantastic job of

There is a particular kind of friendship that does not end so much as calcify, turning slowly into something hard and permanent inside you, a stone where warmth used to be. We have all had one. A person who knew us before we knew ourselves, who watched us become something we are not sure we are proud of, and who we left behind without meaning to, leaving us unable to forget. It is also about pop music, ghosts, the price of fame, what art costs the people who make it and the p

Exit 8 is a Japanese movie adaption of the video game The Exit 8 . A man, played by Kazunari Ninomiya and credited as The Lost Man, finds himself trapped in an endlessly looping subway tunnel, trying to find exit 8. He soon learns the rules: if there is an anomaly in the current loop, he must turn back and go the other way. If there isn't an anomaly, he must keep going the way he is going. If he goes the correct way, the next exit goes up in number one by one until he reache

There's a version of Pizza Movie that probably shouldn't work. Honestly, most versions of it shouldn't. And yet, somehow, this one does. Directed by Nick Kocher and Brian McElhaney, Pizza Movie follows two college roommates, Jack (Gaten Matarazzo) and Montgomery (Sean Giambrone), who make what feels like a very manageable decision. Take an experimental drug. Order a pizza. Stay in. Do nothing. That plan does not hold. What should be a lazy night quickly fractures into somet

The new rom-com You, Me & Tuscany from director Kat Coiro kicks off with Anna (Halle Bailey), a young woman struggling financially as she meets Matteo (Lorenzo de Moor), a traveling real estate agent as he's visiting New York where she currently lives. When Matteo finds out Anna was once planning to visit Tuscany, the city he happens to be from, he encourages her to go there and tells her about the villa he left behind. When Anna arrives in Tuscany and realizes she has nowher

Reef Hawk (Keanu Reeves) has been riding the high of being in Hollywood's good graces since the age of six. Forty years later and he's still on top of the world. He's won two Oscars and has starred in three of the biggest franchises in film history. But what is most important for Reef is that his fans still love him. Throughout his entire career, he's always been very careful in constructing his public image. Sure, he's had his share of struggles, but he's managed to keep it

Netflix has made a habit of commissioning films that exist somewhere between theatrical ambition and streaming comfort food. Thrash , directed by Tommy Wirkola, lands squarely in that territory — a shark-disaster hybrid with genuine technical muscle and a script that keeps tripping over itself. The premise is straightforward enough: a Category 5 hurricane devastates a fictional coastal town called Annieville, and the storm surge carries in something worse than floodwater. Hun

What's the worst thing you've ever done? This is the key question asked in Kristoffer Borgil's The Drama that sets all of the remaining drama of the film in motion. The film follows engaged couple Emma (Zendaya) and Charlie (Robert Pattinson) preparing for their big wedding day. During a dinner with their close friends Mike (Mamoudou Athie) and Rachel (Alana Haim), a conversation about the worst things they've ever done leads to Emma revealing something from her teenage year

There are books you read once and carry forever, lodged somewhere between the ribs. Albert Camus'  The Stranger  was that book for us, the one that arrived at exactly the right age when the world felt arbitrary and grief felt impossible to perform on cue. Meursault was not a villain. He was just a man who could not make his insides match what the outside demanded. We understood him completely. We were young. The sun had never tried to kill anyone we knew. And yet. So when Fra

Disguised as a sweet treat, Forbidden Fruits  reveals itself to be sticky and messy, like fruit juice running down your arm. Jumping out of the gate with a balls-to-the-walls directorial debut, Meredith Alloway's influence from the teen drama films of the late 90s and early 2000s is willfully embraced to bring forth a new cult classic in 2026.  Confidently walking the halls of an overly busy shopping mall, the Fruits, Apple (Reinhart), Fig (Shipp) and Cherry (Pedretti) sancti

Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice follows Mike (James Marsden), a gangster trying to leave that world behind, when he's approached on his final night by Nick (Vince Vaughn) for one final job. Mike is secretly dating Alice (Eiza González), who also happens to be Nick's wife. Tensions rise when Mike realizes the Nick he's working with isn't present day Nick, but a time traveling Nick from six months in the future, trying to save Mike on the night he was originally killed. The film als
