The Mary Sue

Vanessa Esguerra The Mary Sue Oct 5, 2026 As a work of fiction, Primetime takes a classic early-2000s show and gives it a thriller spin. Moreover, the thought-provoking moral dilemma it presents and the stellar acting performances make it worth watching on the big screen. Go to Full Review Primetime (2026) 86% - -

Leah Marilla Thomas The Mary Sue Jul 28, 2026 4/5 Destin Daniel Cretton’s Spider-Man: Brand New Day may have pulled off the impossible, making the fourth installment of Tom Holland’s Spider-Man movies an inside-out origin story, a mature quarterlife crisis narrative, and an entertaining movie to boot.

Leah Marilla Thomas The Mary Sue Jul 16, 2026 4.5/5 It’s not surprising to me that Holland’s storyline on the homefront worked so well. His coming-of-age journey gives us something to root for, and he has excellent scene partners in Bernthal and Hathaway. Go to Full Review The Odyssey (2026) 94% - -

Leah Marilla Thomas The Mary Sue Jul 9, 2026 3/5 Objectively, Moana is not a terrible movie. The story and the songs, largely untouched, remain good! Moana is good! Go to Full Review Moana (2026) 33% - -

Rachel Tolleson The Mary Sue Jun 26, 2026 Jones and McCormack’s script takes us the scenic route into getting to the core of these characters. However, it does so in a way that is fun and funny, with twists and turns at every chance. Go to Full Review The Invite (2026) 96% - -

Rachel Leishman The Mary Sue Jun 9, 2026 3.5/5 Steven Spielberg knows how to make a blockbuster. Disclosure Day proves that, even if it isn’t Spielberg’s best alien-inspired adventure. Go to Full Review Disclosure Day (2026) 79% - -

Leah Marilla Thomas The Mary Sue Jun 2, 2026 3.5/5 Travis Knight’s film is a welcome return to form for family friendly blockbuster filming. (To be fair, I felt the same way after Dungeons and Dragons: Honor Among Thieves. The popcorn flick path is non-linear!) It has a big heart. Go to Full Review Masters of the Universe (2026) 67% - -

Rachel Leishman The Mary Sue May 19, 2026 3.5/5 This isn’t going to reinvent Star Wars as a whole and isn’t changing movie history. But I do think that The Mandalorian & Grogu is the kind of fun family adventure that fans of the show will enjoy. Go to Full Review Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu (2026) 60% - -

Rachel Leishman The Mary Sue May 13, 2026 The Punisher: One Last Kill feels like a one off comic, which is the point, but it also makes it a great reintroduction to Frank Castle with hope that fans can see the Punisher yet again. Go to Full Review The Punisher: One Last Kill (2026) 73% - -

Rachel Leishman The Mary Sue May 5, 2026 4/5 Tuner does reinvent a heist movie but rather allows the audience in on the journey in a new way, making it both thrilling and unpredictable. Go to Full Review Tuner (2025) 94% - -

Rachel Tolleson The Mary Sue Apr 29, 2026 4.5/5 The Devil Wears Prada 2 is a love letter to the first film, as well as to fans.

Rachel Leishman The Mary Sue Apr 7, 2026 3/5 I don’t think these movies necessarily reinvent this type of animation or anything but I do think they’re fun to watch. Again, it isn’t one I will rewatch repeatedly. Go to Full Review The Super Mario Galaxy Movie (2026) 42% - -
