In large part because of a great beginning and a solid ending, this is one of the better entries into the series.

Run Time: 1:45
U.S. Release Date: 2025-05-16
MPAA Rating: "R" (Profanity, Violence, Drugs)
Genre: Thriller
Director: Trey Edward Shults
Cast: Abel Tesfaye, Jenna Ortega, Barry Keoghan

"Hurry Up Tomorrow" seems destined for one of two fates: to be buried in the landfill of self-indulgent, ill-advised vanity projects or find a second life as a cult classic.

Run Time: 1:37
U.S. Release Date: 2025-05-09
MPAA Rating: "R" (Violence, Gore, Profanity)
Genre: Action/Thriller
Director: James Madigan
Cast: Josh Hartnett, Charithra Chandran, Julian Kostov, ...

There are a few standout moments but there are also a few too many scenes when the movie goes on auto-pilot as if it is reluctant to get really crazy.

With the actors and director Paul Feig on board, the only thing no one bothered with was a good screenplay.

Bringing together the flotsam and jetsam of the MCU imparts the “back to basics” feel of Thunderbolts* with a welcome sense of freshness.

Like far too many game-to-film adaptations, the better option is to fire up the PS5 and stay far, far away from the multiplex.

Run Time: 2:04
U.S. Release Date: 2025-04-25
MPAA Rating: "R" (Violence, Profanity)
Genre: Thriller
Director: Gavin O'Connor
Cast: Ben Affleck, Jon Bernthal, Cynthia Addai-Robinson, Daniella Pineda, J.K. Simmons, Robert Morgan, Grant Harvey

The movie works when focused on character interaction and buddy-movie tropes, but the action elements are perfunctory at best and boring at worst.

Warts and all, "Sinners" is a wholly original motion picture full of bravura moments, strong performances, and horror-appropriate gore and violence.

Run Time: 1:35
U.S. Release Date: 2025-04-11
MPAA Rating: "PG-13" (Violence, Profanity)
Genre: Thriller
Director: Christopher Landon
Cast: Meghann Fahy, Brandon Sklenar, Violett Beane, Jacob Robinson, Reed Diamond

Starts out with Hitchcockian flair and rides a dizzying wave of anxiety-based mystery until, like far too many underwritten thrillers, it falls apart.

Essentially Jason Bourne on Vicodin with a little Death Wish sprinkled on top.
