Josh Bell Tom's Guide Sep 25, 2026 2.5/5 There are moments when Heart of the Beast is stark and tense, even with the knowledge of Odin's survival, but far too much of it is predictable and borderline sappy, especially when it veers uncomfortably close to military propaganda territory at the end.

Josh Bell Tom's Guide Jan 30, 2026 It's no surprise that Statham excels in the movie's multiple action sequences, but he also handles the dramatic moments quite well, aided by talented young co-star Bodhi Rae Breathnach. Go to Full Review Shelter (2026) 64% - -

Josh Bell Tom's Guide Jan 23, 2026 Pratt’s tough-guy posturing is even more pathetic when he has no other actor physically present to play against, and Ferguson is all too successful at maintaining Maddox's bland impartiality. Go to Full Review Mercy (2026) 24% - -
