Aaron Pruner CNET Oct 23, 2026 5/5 You Can See Everything is an unsettling vibe, unlike any documentary I’ve ever seen. Go to Full Review You Can See Everything (2026) 98% - -

Aaron Pruner CNET Jul 8, 2026 4/5 Disney's live-action Moana (which hits theaters on Friday) is an absolutely unnecessary addition to the franchise. But despite that, it's fun. In fact, it's the most fun I've had in a theater while watching one of these live-action retreads. Go to Full Review Moana (2026) 33% - -

Aaron Pruner CNET Jun 24, 2026 3/5 Supergirl feels like a collection of ideas inspired by other things, repackaged into a new thing here. Along with Gunn's signature move of having every stylized fight sequence fueled by some form of pop music, I found myself checking out more than once. Go to Full Review Supergirl (2026) 52% - -

Aaron Pruner CNET May 20, 2026 3/5 John Krasinski is back as CIA operative Jack Ryan in an action movie that is bigger than its TV series predecessor but feels way too safe to move the needle. Go to Full Review Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan: Ghost War (2026) 39% - -

Aaron Pruner CNET May 19, 2026 2/5 Writing-wise, each scene predictably pushed the story forward, but without any real character development or plot work to establish the emotional connection you need to fully engage with a story.

Aaron Pruner CNET Apr 24, 2026 2/5 There's a lot the movie could've explored during its roughly 90-minute running time, particularly around loss and letting go. Alas, it's all surface, no depth. It's a bummer -- but at least that surface looks cool. Go to Full Review Apex (2026) 68% - -

Aaron Pruner CNET Mar 27, 2026 B If you wax nostalgic for the ridiculous shoot-em-ups from the mid '00s, like, say, the movie Shoot 'Em Up, this one's for you. Go to Full Review Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice (2026) 76% - -

Aaron Pruner CNET Mar 11, 2026 5/5 stars Project Hail Mary is a collection of moving parts that, if poorly balanced, could easily dip into the cheesy space-adventure arena where the above examples reside. It all works, though, and brilliantly so. Go to Full Review Project Hail Mary (2026) 95% - -

Kourtnee Jackson CNET Jan 26, 2026 Suspense, horror, wild action and dark humor make this a must-see film. Go to Full Review Send Help (2026) 92% - -

Richard Trenholm CNET Dec 12, 2025 While it's intriguing to see what happens when a man who cares only about his own desires gets involved in politics, the story tips into the sordid as Casanova's approach to spying veers uncomfortably close to pimping. Go to Full Review Casanova (2015) - - - -

Kourtnee Jackson CNET Nov 4, 2025 Trachtenberg delivers a high-energy, underdog story that marries the Predator's brutish ways with a reflective viewpoint, and gives us an ending that's not completely predictable for a sci-fi movie set in this universe. Well done. Go to Full Review Predator: Badlands (2025) 86% - -

Aaron Pruner CNET Oct 7, 2025 3.5 Ares is chock full of jaw-dropping visuals and amazing effects that, for me anyway, made the lack of plot a non-issue. Go to Full Review TRON: Ares (2025) 52% - -

Aaron Pruner CNET Sep 22, 2025 A+ One Battle After Another is holding up a mirror to society, and the reflection feels bent and distorted, like something you'd see in a carnival funhouse. That's what makes the movie terrifying; that's what makes it terrific. Go to Full Review One Battle After Another (2025) 94% - -

Kourtnee Jackson CNET Jul 28, 2025 Heavy on the sci-fi and tender family dynamic, the film gives us just a little something different in a genre that coasts on the fate-of-the-world-hinges-on-the-decisions-of-its-heroes trope. Go to Full Review The Fantastic Four: First Steps (2025) 86% - -

Aaron Pruner CNET Jul 10, 2025 A This Superman is wholesome and optimistic and pays homage to the past without repeating it. Gunn truly shocked me with this one and delivered an aspirational superhero movie unlike anything I've seen on the big screen in years. Go to Full Review Superman (2025) 83% - -

Aaron Pruner CNET May 2, 2025 4/5 Thunderbolts offers a breath of fresh air. It's a palate cleanser that reminds audiences that Marvel movies can be fun -- and, dare I say, even funny. It's not envelope-pushing, but it works on multiple levels. Go to Full Review Thunderbolts (2025) 88% - -

Amanda Kooser CNET Apr 26, 2025 What's fun about "Caravan of Courage" is the opportunity to settle into life on Endor... what's not so great is the pervasive cheesiness, sight gags, slow pacing, stilted acting and silly plot. Go to Full Review Caravan of Courage: An Ewok Adventure (1984) 39% 43%

Aaron Pruner CNET Sep 4, 2024 B+ The chemistry between the cast, the onslaught of visual gags, Tim Burton's signature world-building and the steady stream of horror humor puts Beetlejuice Beetlejuice in the winner's circle. Go to Full Review Beetlejuice Beetlejuice (2024) 76% 100%

Aaron Pruner CNET Aug 14, 2024 A Alien: Romulus successfully carves its niche into the celebrated franchise.

Aaron Pruner CNET Jul 23, 2024 A When all is said and done, Deadpool & Wolverine ticks all the boxes a fan could want in a Marvel movie. It's the best installment in the franchise, the best Marvel movie since Avengers: Endgame, and it charts a bold new path for the MCU. Go to Full Review Deadpool & Wolverine (2024) 77% - -
