Jon Negroni InBetweenDrafts Sep 29, 2026 8/10 Digger treats entertainment as one of humanity’s favorite ways of metabolizing terror. Where we turn catastrophe into stories because stories give chaos a shape, villains a face, and suffering something resembling an ending. Go to Full Review Digger (2026) 52% - -

Jon Negroni Thank God for Movies Sep 22, 2026 Oppenheim and cinematographer David Bolen crowd Pattinson’s face into the frame, studying his skin, eyes, mouth, and increasingly bizarre expressions with the same intensity To Catch a Predator directs toward its subjects.

Jon Negroni InBetweenDrafts Aug 5, 2026 7/10 The Purge by way of Before Sunrise, with just enough satirical bite to sharpen the comedy without overwhelming the romance. Go to Full Review One Night Only (2026) 44% - -

Jon Negroni InBetweenDrafts Jul 28, 2026 7.5/10 Simply put, if Sam Raimi‘s Spider-Man 2 was the Spider-Man film about Spider-Man deciding to quit being Spider-Man, then Spider-Man: Brand New Day is clearly the one where he quits being Peter Parker.

Jon Negroni Thank God for Movies Jul 15, 2026 The Odyssey is a fascinating, unwieldy film, capable of producing a breathtaking image and then sending three characters to stand beneath it and explain what it represents. Go to Full Review The Odyssey (2026) 94% - -

Jon Negroni Thank God for Movies Jun 24, 2026 Supergirl never reaches the clarity, precision, or narrative confidence that made Superman such a pleasant surprise. It floats. It glides. And it cruises through its runtime on Alcock’s considerable charisma like a star cruiser running on fumes. Go to Full Review Supergirl (2026) 53% - -

Jon Negroni InBetweenDrafts Jun 16, 2026 8/10 The film isn't really asking whether toys can beat screens. That would be tedious. It's asking whether imagination can survive embarrassment. Go to Full Review Toy Story 5 (2026) 92% - -

Jon Negroni Thank God for Movies Jun 10, 2026 The Furious is a reminder that martial arts cinema needs recommitment even more than reinvention. It needs performers who can move, directors who know where to put the camera, choreographers who build fights with dramatic logic. Go to Full Review The Furious (2025) 97% - -

Jon Negroni Thank God for Movies Jun 9, 2026 It's about aliens, sure, but that is almost the least interesting thing about it. It's about the terror of being believed after years of being trained to feel foolish for what you believe. Go to Full Review Disclosure Day (2026) 79% - -

Jon Negroni InBetweenDrafts Jun 8, 2026 7.5/10 Carney sets a trap baited with his own formula and springs something richer. A film about authorship that turns out to be a film about fatherhood, ambition, and the quiet arithmetic of a good life. Go to Full Review Power Ballad (2026) 88% - -

Jon Negroni Thank God for Movies Jun 7, 2026 It really is odd to see a blockbuster in 2026 failing to learn from the myriad of mistakes made by so many similar big-budget blunders throughout the 20teens. Go to Full Review Masters of the Universe (2026) 67% - -

Jon Negroni Thank God for Movies Jun 5, 2026 The Wayanses won their franchise back, which I celebrate, and then handed us the precise self-satisfied meta-comedy that sank the franchise the first time, which I mourn. Go to Full Review Scary Movie (2026) 23% - -

Jon Negroni Thank God for Movies May 31, 2026 The staginess remains visible throughout, and the film embraces it rather than disguising it. In fact, this plays like filmed theater of a high order, one that rewards close attention to faces and words over spectacle. Go to Full Review Pressure (2026) 90% - -

Jon Negroni Thank God for Movies May 30, 2026 Backrooms, likes Obsession just weeks before it, proves that a kid from YouTube can walk into the multiplex and out-think nearly everyone there about the exact anxiety eating their generation alive. Go to Full Review Backrooms (2026) 85% - -

Jon Negroni Thank God for Movies May 26, 2026 Its first half belongs in a time capsule. Its second half sometimes confuses the map for the territory. Go to Full Review Blue Heron (2025) 97% - -

Jon Negroni InBetweenDrafts May 19, 2026 5/10 One of the most expensive non-sequiturs ever made. A live-action cartoon that, watched on a screen four stories tall, somehow contrives to look smaller than it did on a television. Go to Full Review Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu (2026) 60% - -

Jon Negroni Thank God for Movies May 15, 2026 8/10 Curry Barker’s 'Obsession' earns its hype with a star-making Inde Navarrette performance and a vicious sense of where to point the camera. Go to Full Review Obsession (2025) 93% - -

Jon Negroni InBetweenDrafts Apr 29, 2026 6/10 The Devil Wears Prada 2 is not the light, frothy thing the original was. It’s a sadder, grayer film wearing beautiful clothes, which is either a metaphor or just an honest description. Go to Full Review The Devil Wears Prada 2 (2026) 78% - -

Jon Negroni Thank God for Movies Mar 9, 2026 10/10 30 years after the Cutlass emerged from the blizzard, Fargo is still the most honest American movie I know about the relationship between small human failure and catastrophic harm. Go to Full Review Fargo (1996) 95% 92%
