Office Romance is about, as you may have guessed, an office romance. Jackie Cruz (Jennifer Lopez) is the President and CEO of an airline, dealing with a lawsuit. Daniel Blanchflower (Brett Goldstein) is her new lawyer. Everyone can see where this is going. Jennifer Lopez has such a natural screen presence that I always enjoy regardless of the quality of the movie. Mediocre movies that involve her are still worth watching to some extent. That was no different here as she plays

Nate Wilcox (Nate Bargatze) is left to take care of his three daughters by himself when his wife Katie (Mandy Moore) has to go out of town for a business related trip. The premise alone is already very been there, done that. The concept that the dad has no idea how to parent because the mom does all the hard work is a stereotype that has been played to death. That wouldn't matter as much if we got one of the best versions of that trope or even a movie that's actually really f

No one has ever made a film about weather forecasting before, and somehow, inexplicably, it is one of the most tense things I have watched this year. With Pressure, Anthony Maras has taken a story about a Scottish meteorologist arguing with an American meteorologist over whether it will rain on June 5th, 1944, and turned it into something that had me actually leaning forward in my seat. The fate of the entire Allied invasion of Europe rests on a man reading cloud formations c

With I Love Boosters, Boots Riley has made another film that feels like it was conceived at 2am by someone who read three books on Marxist theory, watched every heist movie ever made, and then ate something they probably should not have eaten. I mean this as a compliment. Mostly. Keke Palmer, Naomi Ackie, and Taylour Paige play three working class Bay Area women who steal luxury goods and resell them on the street at prices normal humans can actually afford. They are not crim

Betrayal, espionage, and a whole lot of cigarette smoking, Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan: Ghost War picks up where the Prime Series left off. Our titular leading man, Jack Ryan (John Krasinski), is back, but rather than the abrasive CIA agent we know and love him to be, this time he is a civilian. At the end of season 4, Jack had testified before the Senate, exposing high levels of government corruption. Leaving him to be a regular man. That is, until Ghost War ropes Jack back into

There are certain pop rock songs that you pretend you don't know. John Carney has built a career out of making people like you feel okay about liking those songs. He has done just that with Power Ballad, his first feature in almost 20 years. The film caught me by surprise on an otherwise unimportant day. In the film, Paul Rudd plays the titular character who is a wedding singer in Ireland. He had the potential to make it big in the pop music world. He missed the chance, made

The world is a judgmental place with judgmental people. Some face the consequences of that judgment more than others, and it doesn't help when something about your appearance makes you physically different. What if you knew the person responsible for the difficulties you've faced in life? Twin sisters Racine (Kara Young) and Anaia (Mallori Johnson) live their lives with burn scars on them. Racine's scars are mostly on her arm, but Anaia's are on her face, causing people to st

A guy buys a wish granting toy from a crystal shop because he is too scared to tell his friend he likes her. She starts loving him unconditionally. He thinks this is great. It is not great. This is the premise of one of the most unsettling horror films I have seen in years and I have not stopped thinking about it. Curry Barker is a YouTuber. A prankster. This is his debut feature. I am as surprised as you are. What makes Obsession so genuinely disturbing is not the broken gla

Have you ever wanted to see one of the biggest global pop sensations in concert? Well, at Billie Eilish Hit Me Hard and Soft: The Tour (Live in 3D), you get to experience the artist's entire concert from beginning to end in the comfort of your movie theatre recliner. Teaming up with Academy Award-winning director James Cameron to capture the most immersive movie-going experience for her fans, the concert film is unique in being presented in 3D. Now I do not think I’ve been t

Talking sheep investigating the murder of a human character is certainly an interesting concept for a movie. One that many people, including myself, heard the concept of, or even saw the overly cheesy trailer and thought was going to be a downright silly if not flat out bad movie. So when the movie debuted in the 90s on Rotten Tomatoes, intrigue went up, and rightfully so. George Hardy (Hugh Jackman) is a shepherd who reads mystery novels to his sheep every night, not knowing

What do the United States Military and Hollywood have in common? In Atropia, they are the same. Set in 2006, Atropia follows Fayruz (Alia Shawkat), an actress who works in the fictional nation of Atropia as a role-playing civilian. A political satire, Atropia examines how war is a simulation rather than a product of humanity. Unfortunately, I do not think the film succeeded in its trajectory. The winners of the 2025 Sundance Grand Jury Prize, Atropia, had a lot expected of i

Married couple Dan (Jason Segel) and Lisa (Samara Weaving) go on a vacation with their own secret plans to kill each other. Shortly after finding out the other person's plan, those plans are interrupted when they find out two criminals and a police officer are hiding out in their cabin as well. Over Your Dead Body is written by comedy duo BriTANicK (Brian McElhaney and Nick Kocher), who also wrote Pizza Movie, which came out on Hulu earlier this year. After watching both of t

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

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
