Wicker Review: A Basket Case for Love
Movie Review Wicker 9/10 TLDR Wicker is made from husband material: a weird, wonderful fairy tale for grown-ups, with Olivia Colman ordering a man from the Basketmaker and Alexander Skarsgård creaking his way into her heart. It’s bawdy, tender and, yes, achingly romantic. Where to watch: In theaters October 23 (Black Bear) The Facts Synopsis:…

The Final Problem Review: Elemental, Querido Watson
Movie Review The Final Problem 9/10 TLDR The Final Problem is an absolutely delicious Holmesian puzzle box. José Coronado is superb as an old movie Sherlock stranded at a 1959 island hotel off Mallorca with a body and a houseful of suspects. It takes its time, plays fair and saves its best tricks for the…

Hallowarrior Review: The Last Trick-or-Treater on Earth
Movie Review Hallowarrior 7/10 TLDR Hallowarrior is a trim, effective Halloween survival story that plays more like The Road than Mad Max. Milly Shapiro gives a mad-confident lead performance, Ajani Russell is dynamite, and the gore effects rise well above the budget. Where to watch: Streaming on Shudder and AMC+ October 16 The Facts Synopsis:…

Crawlers Review: The Itsy Bitsy Lockdown
Movie Review Crawlers 5/10 TLDR Crawlers locks a rundown apartment building down with a million venomous spiders and trades old-school monster fun for ooey-gooey gross-outs. Matilda Lutz and a scene-stealing dominatrix keep it crawling, but even at 75 minutes, it overstays its welcome. Where to watch: In theaters October 16 (Roadside Attractions and Saban Films)…

Sense and Sensibility (2026) Review: A Truth Universally Swooned
Movie Review Sense and Sensibility 8/10 TLDR Sense and Sensibility doesn’t have the snap of Pride & Prejudice, but it’s wonderfully swoon-worthy all the same. Daisy Edgar-Jones and a scene-stealing Fiona Shaw lead a cast that lifts a stuffy script, and a sweeping score makes it a cozy fall hit. Where to watch: In theaters…

Whalefall Review: Into the Belly of Grief
Movie Review Whalefall 9/10 TLDR Whalefall is a whale of a tale that’s less ludicrous than it sounds. Austin Abrams goes through hell inside a convincing, practical sperm whale, and Josh Brolin’s flashbacks turn a nail-biter into a moving story about fathers, sons and grief. Where to watch: In theaters October 16 (20th Century Studios)…

You Can See Everything Review: Fake It Till You Film It
Movie Review You Can See Everything 10/10 TLDR Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim move in for Elizabeth Holmes’s last 34 days of freedom. The early needling grates, then the film turns into something no true-crime documentary has tried. Go in cold. Where to watch: In theaters October 16 (A24) The Facts Synopsis: Thirty-four days before…

Musk Movie Review: A Long, Angry Portrait Before the Midterms
Movie Review Musk 8/10 TLDR Alex Gibney’s Musk is four hours long and moves like two. The AI avatar looks like a bobblehead, but the DOGE section hits hard. See it before the midterms. Where to watch: In theaters October 9 (Bleecker Street) The Facts Synopsis: An incisive look behind the legend of Elon Musk,…

Clown Panic Review: Send In the Fears
Movie Review Clown Panic 5/10 TLDR Hulu’s Clown Panic revisits the 2016 clown sightings but rarely asks whether the threat was real. Guilford Adams is a delight, and the final twenty minutes hit hard. The history of scary clowns goes missing. Where to watch: Streaming on Hulu The Facts Synopsis: When children in a small…

Trust Me, I’m a Doctor Review: Tabloid Drama Needs a Cure
Movie Review Trust Me, I’m a Doctor 4/10 TLDR Linda Hamilton and Dhirendra bring focus and dignity to a tacky drama about Dr. Sandeep Kapoor and the aftermath of Anna Nicole Smith’s death. Exaggerated lead performances and busy tabloid recreations leave its ethical questions poorly explored. The Facts Synopsis: Dr. Sandeep Kapoor’s life comes apart…
