La Bola Negra
Netflix’s top awards contender this year is a well-made and powerful film that juggles history, romance, and war to paint a compelling picture of Spain over the course of eighty years.
White Palace Blu-ray
For a steamy age-gap romance flick, this is surprisingly thoughtful and intelligent.
Wild Horse Nine
Although it resembles his earlier films, Martin McDonagh’s latest is as funny and sad as anything 2026 has given us.
Verity
This adaptation of Colleen Hoover’s bestseller remains extremely watchable as an awkward blend of trashy thriller and erotic romance.
Heart of the Beast
Brad Pitt has gone and made an entire dog movie, but one with bite.
Resident Evil (2026)
Zach Cregger’s reboot sets out to be its own big self-contained entertainment and succeeds.
Nadine Blu-ray
Three Oscar winners come together in this weirdly dull 1980s romantic comedy.
Disclosure Day: 4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray + Digital Code
Spielberg’s latest alien adventure comes home in style.
Baz Luhrmann’s EPiC: Elvis Presley in Concert 4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray
The man loved to perform, the people loved the man, and seeing the two parties get what they want in Las Vegas at the turn of the ’70s makes for exhilarating cinema in 2026.
Father Mother Sister Brother Blu-ray
Arguably the greatest thrill of Jim Jarmusch’s latest film is seeing how much character detail and how many parallels the filmmaker can squeeze into these vignettes.
The Invite (2026)
Olivia Wilde’s third effort as director is clearly her best in A24’s clever, subversive and thoughtful dramedy.
Sunset (1988) Blu-ray
Bruce Willis manifests leading man status in this forgotten pre-“Die Hard” vehicle.
Disclosure Day
The scientific curiosity and wide-eyed wonder of the Spielberg’s early films return in a big summer movie contemplating our place in the universe.
You Light Up My Life Blu-ray
This dopey ’70s Oscar winner makes separating the mild art from the vile artist more than a little difficult.
Power Ballad
Paul Rudd makes for a great fit for John Carney’s distinctive brand of music-centric storytelling
Nirvanna The Band The Show The Movie Blu-ray
Don’t let the weird title or your unfamiliarity scare you off: this is a lot of fun, even if you’re coming in cold.
Normal
The guy who wrote three “John Wick” and two “Nobody” movies isn’t going soft. Or evolving, unfortunately.
The Chase (1966) Blu-ray
When the compelling main narrative eventually takes center stage, “The Chase” starts to sizzle.
The Super Mario Galaxy Movie
It seems clear that video game fans, not film lovers, are the primary audience here.
Suspect (1987) Blu-ray
Real criminal lawyers will bristle as “Suspect” chooses not to prioritize plausibility.
Project Hail Mary
Lord and Miller’s big stroke of genius here is making a live-action movie that feels like an animated one.
Pulse (1988) Blu-ray
A forgotten entry to the 1980s horror boom, Paul Golding’s “Pulse” returns to Blu-ray looking terrific.
Fackham Hall Blu-ray
If privileged aristocracy can enchant generations with elegant period production and an ensemble of romances and assorted arcs, can’t it also be skewered effectively?
28 Years Later: The Bone Temple
“Bone Temple” deserves much more credit for being bold and different than it does for being good. But, hey, it’s January.
