Not a ghost story. Not a love story. Maybe that’s true. Maybe it’s not. What is accurate is to say that Mother Mary is an impressively labyrinthine sojourn into creation, art, music, and interpersonal connection that eschew gender, sexuality, and societal norms to become something else entirely. Something new. Something mythic. Something almost certain to last forever.

Project Hail Mary is a richly rewarding sojourn into the unknown that celebrates intelligence and selflessness.

As unexpected (and unnecessary) sequels go, Ready or Not 2: Here I Come doesn’t have any right to be as good as it is.

I will see films in 2025 that I will dislike far more than I do writer-director Ian Tuason’s undertone. I doubt I will see many that I will find nearly as disappointing.

As big a fan as I’ve been of this series since the beginning, Scream 7 stabs this franchise in the heart and puts any chance for a triumphant resurrection on life support.

I found The Mortuary Assistant frustrating. Even worse, I also found it forgettable.

Send Help finds Raimi and McAdams playing a gory, delectably mean-spirited game of survivor

At least it’s funny. I do have to give Mercy that.

A Private Life is a lot of fun to watch.
