The Smashing Machine is a film of magnificent pieces that never quite form a satisfying whole. Dwayne Johnson delivers a career-defining performance as Mark Kerr, revealing layers of raw emotion and vulnerability we’ve rarely seen from him. Yet, just as the film finds its rhythm, it stumbles under uneven writing and forced character interactions. Emily Blunt’s talent glows despite a script that gives her little room to breathe, her portrayal aching with unspoken desperation. By the end, a powerful meta-commentary redeems much of the film’s unevenness—reminding us that fame is fleeting, memory is selective, and the stories of pioneers often fade before we even notice they’re gone.
Hurts to win, hurts to lose
Maestro is a requiem for the contradictions of human life. Bradley Cooper’s Leonard Bernstein is a man of genius and turmoil, living openly enough to feel alive but never enough to feel safe. Torn between love and obligation, pride and prejudice, he moves through a world where his queerness and Jewish heritage are both defining truths and quiet burdens.
If summer doesn’t sing in you then nothing sings in you. And if nothing sings in you, then you can’t make music.
Together starts slow but erupts into poetic, grotesque body horror. Ambitious themes—grief, obsession, love—but uneven execution. Franco & Brie commit, yet underdeveloped cult lore & baffling choices hold it back. Visually striking, frustratingly incomplete.
All for one and one for all
Marvel nails the impossible—a “fantastic” Fantastic Four movie! Retro sci-fi charm, a stellar cast; Pascal’s Reed is perfect, but Julia Garner’s haunting Silver Surfer & Vanessa Kirby's passionate Sue Storm steal the show. Smart, a little campy but genuine and most importantly -finally fun. Bring on Doom! 🚀🔥
Marvel Finally Sticks the Landing
Ari Aster’s Eddington is a revelation—a masterclass in tension, storytelling, and sheer cinematic audacity. Joaquin Phoenix delivers a career-best performance in this politically charged pressure cooker, where every frame thrums with dread. Aster orchestrates chaos with surgical precision, culminating in an ending so brutal it lingers like a nightmare. Flawless direction, powerhouse acting—this isn’t just a great film; it’s an instant classic.
A Masterclass in Political Chaos and Human Fragility
28 Years Later isn’t a sequel—it’s a Frankenstein’s monster of half-baked ideas with the coherence of a TikTok slideshow. Visually, it’s a seizure-inducing mess; narratively, a bloated identity crisis. The cast fights valiantly (especially Jodie Comer), but the infected feel like an afterthought, and the ending? A baffling, tone-deaf disaster. Danny Boyle’s lightning is long gone—this is just shards of regret.
"An Alpha Did That"
Ballerina brings the sleek action of the John Wick world with a fresh face—Ana de Armas, shining in every scene. While it doesn’t pack the emotional punch of its predecessors, it’s still a stylish ride with stunning choreography, explosive moments, and just enough heart to keep you watching.
Overcome, Adapt, and... Fight Like a Girl
Gattaca’s dystopia isn’t sci-fi—it’s prophecy. Ethan Hawke’s Vincent, a 'defective' dreamer, fakes perfection in a world where DNA dictates destiny. Jude Law’s bitter Jerome sells his elite genes, their pact; a rebellion against engineered fate. A haunting, beautiful ode to the misfits who outrun their own blood.
A Gene By Another Name
Mission Impossible: The Final Reckoning is a chaotic, caffeine-fueled PowerPoint on what happens when you let an AI write dialogue for a spy thriller. Tom Cruise defies death (and aging) while the plot defies coherence—swinging between heart-stopping stunts and dialogue so clunky, you’ll wish The Entity had erased it instead. Peak franchise absurdity, complete with a villain who’s just ‘angry guy who skipped therapy’ and a climax that thinks gasping at murder is romance. Buckle up for a fun mess.
Mission Impossibly Average
Sinners aims high with bold ideas, standout performances—especially from Michael B. Jordan—and an ambitious soundtrack, but ultimately drowns in its own overcooked symbolism and underdeveloped storytelling. A promising concept lost in a muddled execution, it’s a dish served cold with all the right ingredients in the wrong order.
Hungry Hungry Hippo-Vampires
Thunderbolts is the wake-up call Marvel desperately needed—raw, emotional, and unafraid to get messy. It's not just a return to form; it's proof the MCU can still surprise us when it trades quips for character and spectacle for substance.
Marvel Finally Grows Up
Opus hypes Alfred Moretti as revolutionary, but his music feels like AI-crafted yoga tunes. Malkovich's preachy monologues scream for credibility, yet all the audience wants is for the murder to start.
"Cult, Cult, Cult" -Dan Cummins
Anaïs starts as a tragic assassin, then vanishes into plot limbo. Bernthal devours every scene, Affleck fumbles through social cues, and somehow it all ends with office furniture shopping. Peak chaos, zero payoff.
Something Doesn't Add Up...
A competent revenge flick with brains and bite. Malek’s glacial performance as a grieving data decoder turned assassin anchors this cat-and-mouse game, elevating it beyond its tropes. The tech may be Hollywood-fake, but the emotional stakes—and Malek’s haunting presence—feel terrifyingly real.
The 5 Stages of Revenge
A shirtless Bill Skarsgård screaming in a car for 90 minutes while Anthony Hopkins lectures about etiquette—this remake of 4X4 is less thriller, more wealthy-man power fantasy. What starts as a tense survival game quickly turns into a tired "rich = smart, poor = lazy" sermon. Justice? Morality? Who cares—just work harder, right? #MovieReview #Locked2025 #BillSkarsgard
