Nate Adams The Only Critic Oct 23, 2026 C While "Clayface" isn’t particularly concerned with its place in the larger DC Universe, it doesn’t seem terribly interested in developing a compelling world of its own, either. Go to Full Review Clayface (2026) 75% - -

Nate Adams The Only Critic Oct 22, 2026 B "Wicker" has enough personality, warmth and wonderfully offbeat humor to keep its familiar messaging from becoming tiresome. Go to Full Review Wicker (2026) 94% - -

Nate Adams The Only Critic Oct 20, 2026 A- It is among the finest achievements in stop-motion animation, and I suspect it will be quite some time before anything comes close to matching its scale. Go to Full Review Wildwood (2026) 100% - -

Nate Adams The Only Critic Oct 19, 2026 A It’s an endlessly provocative exercise in perception and self-delusion that might leave you more perplexed than when you walked in. It’s also one of the best movies of the year, hell, probably even the decade. Go to Full Review You Can See Everything (2026) 98% - -

Nate Adams The Only Critic Oct 16, 2026 C- "Street Fighter" is more than happy to drag us back to the days when video game movies were loud, obnoxious exercises in brand recognition. Go to Full Review Street Fighter (2026) 41% - -

Nate Adams The Only Critic Oct 16, 2026 B There’s a surprising amount of heart buried beneath its grotesque exterior, aided considerably by a committed Abrams, who spends much of the movie getting the absolute shit kicked out of him. Go to Full Review Whalefall (2026) 73% - -

Nate Adams The Only Critic Oct 10, 2026 D+ For a filmmaker who has previously demonstrated such a strong command of geography and escalating tension, Affleck seems content to let scenes unfold without much urgency or visual imagination. Go to Full Review Animals (2026) 31% - -

Nate Adams The Only Critic Oct 9, 2026 C+ More troubling is how little it resembles the sharp, incisive filmmaking that made 2010’s "The Social Network" one of the defining movies of the 21st century. Of course, that film had something this one desperately needs: David Fincher behind the camera. Go to Full Review The Social Reckoning (2026) 54% - -

Nate Adams The Only Critic Oct 9, 2026 C- Yet for all the ingenuity Savage brings to the proceedings, his film is so preoccupied with finding the next elaborate way to frighten us that it neglects the fractured family at the center of its story. Go to Full Review Other Mommy (2026) 19% - -

Nate Adams The Only Critic Oct 8, 2026 D There’s no distinctive visual identity, no meaningful exploration of the toys’ appeal, and certainly no attempt to translate the imaginative possibilities of Matchbox cars into something uniquely cinematic.

Nate Adams The Only Critic Oct 2, 2026 B Its ambitions occasionally overwhelm its execution, but there’s something invigorating about watching a movie this expensive take such an unapologetically strange swing. Go to Full Review Digger (2026) 53% - -

Nate Adams The Only Critic Oct 1, 2026 C- For a movie built around forbidden desire, buried secrets and beautiful people behaving badly, "Verity" is oddly restrained when it should be letting its hair down. Go to Full Review Verity (2026) 31% - -

Nate Adams The Only Critic Sep 25, 2026 B- Ayer’s film checks nearly every box of the man-and-his-dog survival movie, and it knows exactly where to tug at your heart. What keeps it going is the bond at its center, even when the story around that bond grows predictable. Go to Full Review Heart of the Beast (2026) 85% - -

Nate Adams The Only Critic Sep 25, 2026 C- With so little visual distinction or momentum, the film begins to resemble the kind of true-crime dramatization Netflix can produce almost on autopilot. Go to Full Review Unabomber (2026) 24% - -

Nate Adams The Only Critic Sep 24, 2026 B The film reaches for more catharsis than it can always earn, but Paulson delivers one of her best screen performances in years, making it difficult to look away even when the story loses its footing. Go to Full Review Closing Night (2026) 69% - -

Nate Adams The Only Critic Sep 23, 2026 B “The Surgeon” turns medical expertise into an action-movie superpower, finding increasingly inventive ways for Yeoh to dismantle people with surgical precision. Go to Full Review The Surgeon (2026) 100% - -

Nate Adams The Only Critic Sep 22, 2026 B+ The animation has the vibrant, expressive style Crawford and Mercado brought to “Puss in Boots: The Last Wish,” and it moves with enough speed to keep even its more crowded stretches entertaining. Go to Full Review Forgotten Island (2026) 95% - -

Nate Adams The Only Critic Sep 22, 2026 B Oppenheim wants to understand what happens when journalism, law enforcement and reality television become so entangled that nobody can determine where public service ends and performance begins. Go to Full Review Primetime (2026) 86% - -

Nate Adams The Only Critic Sep 20, 2026 B+ It shows a man trying to protect his identity, his dignity and his work while a community around him struggles to survive. Go to Full Review Elsinore (2026) 88% - -

Nate Adams The Only Critic Sep 18, 2026 B+ Cregger and co-writer Shay Hatten keep the mythology in the background and concentrate on something refreshingly simple: a survival-horror story with momentum, personality and a clear objective. Go to Full Review Resident Evil (2026) 96% - -
