Fountain of Youth (2025)
The best secrets are the hardest to find.
Filmmaker(s): Guy Ritchie

A treasure-hunting mastermind assembles a team for a life-changing adventure. But to outwit and outrun threats at every turn, he'll need someone even smarter than he is: his estranged sister.

Architecture Under normal circumstances, I would warn you away from this. It is an unintegrated collection of elements designed to take a few dollars and hours in exchange for an escape. It supposes to triangulate that zone among ‘Indiana Jones’, ‘National Treasure’, and ‘The DaVinci Code’....

Mickey 17 (2025)
He's dying to save mankind.
Filmmaker(s): Bong Joon Ho

Unlikely hero Mickey Barnes finds himself in the extraordinary circumstance of working for an employer who demands the ultimate commitment to the job… to die, for a living.

Animal Love love story, a very clever and dear love story. I like anything Bong Joon Ho does, but find his social commentary often gets in the way. So, subtract that out here. It has little to do with his overlap of cinematic and story...

Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga (2024)
Fury is born.
Filmmaker(s): George Miller

As the world fell, young Furiosa is snatched from the Green Place of Many Mothers and falls into the hands of a great Biker Horde led by the Warlord Dementus. Sweeping through the Wasteland they come across the Citadel presided over by The Immortan Joe. While the two Tyrants war for dominance, Furiosa must survive many trials as she puts together the means to find her way home.

Maxxed out understand how this was made. ‘Fury Road’ was a mess, a rescued, done-over-several-times mess that few people involved thought would work, but it did. So the studios were eager to make another, and Miller already had the prequel sketched because he needed a...

The Instigators (2024)
Worst. Heist. Ever.
Filmmaker(s): Doug Liman

Rory and Cobby are unlikely partners thrown together for a heist. But when it goes awry, they team up to outrun police, backward bureaucrats, and a vengeful crime boss.

Boston Underachievers what I think happened. These sorts of films are all about the characters, and some substantial part of that is either the skill of the actor, or whether the actor is more or less like the character. Willis, McQueen, Newman, Bogart, Wayne for...

Twisters (2024)
Chase. Ride. Survive.
Filmmaker(s): Lee Isaac Chung

As storm season intensifies, the paths of former storm chaser Kate Carter and reckless social-media superstar Tyler Owens collide when terrifying phenomena never seen before are unleashed. The pair and their competing teams find themselves squarely in the paths of multiple storm systems converging over central Oklahoma in the fight of their lives.

Surrey with the Fringe on Top might be enough to build a movie around special effects that don’t involve a fight or monsters. These usually fall into the catastrophe category. The key to that category it seems, is the noir necessity that the catastrophe happens...

The Wild Robot (2024)
Filmmaker(s): Chris Sanders

After a shipwreck, an intelligent robot called Roz is stranded on an uninhabited island. To survive the harsh environment, Roz bonds with the island's animals and cares for an orphaned baby goose.

Programmed the front I have to say that both the adults were affected, cried, emoted. This is a Mommy story in a sea of Daddy stories, especially animated ‘family’ fare. It pulled on some formulaic strings, enough for me to say that this knows the...

Spaceman (2024)
I just want to go home.
Filmmaker(s): Johan Renck

Six months into a solo mission, a lonely astronaut confronts the cracks in his marriage with help from a mysterious creature he discovers on his ship.

Eclipsed ‘2001’ was so good in different ways that it has become appreciated for incidental qualities instead of the filmmaker’s intent. What he explored in basically all his films after this period was the relationship among ‘truth’, and how it is carried by the surrounding...

Fly Me to the Moon (2024)
Will they make history... or fake it?
Filmmaker(s): Greg Berlanti

Sparks fly in all directions as marketing maven Kelly Jones, brought in to fix NASA's public image, wreaks havoc on Apollo 11 launch director Cole Davis' already difficult task of putting a man on the moon. When the White House deems the mission too important to fail, Jones is directed to stage a fake moon landing as backup, and the countdown truly begins.

No Go may like this simply as a romantic story. Many people seem to need stories about finding love, and the improbable dance that brings couples together. I’m fine with that, and fine with watching even badly constructed stories, because I revel in a successful,...

Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl (2024)
New friends. Old enemies.

Gromit’s concern that Wallace is becoming too dependent on his inventions proves justified, when Wallace invents a “smart” gnome that seems to develop a mind of its own. When it emerges that a vengeful figure from the past might be masterminding things, it falls to Gromit to battle sinister forces and save his master… or Wallace may never be able to invent again!

Fan Service nothing novel about observing the trap that franchises fall into. The template is what attracts us because we recall a pleasant experience, we understand and like the world, and we trust the story machine. But it runs the risk of being too familiar,...
