‘The Substance’ is lightning in a bottle, the rare kind of film that exhibits and maintains a rip-roaring, viscera-spewing electricity that sizzles throughout its entire runtime.

It’s interesting to note that despite this having sporadic action scenes and being Saulnier’s least violent film to date, ‘Rebel Ridge’ remains a gripping thriller where the threats of violence had as much nail-biting tension as its eruption.

‘Talahib,’ just like this film, is a blade of grass in a barren wasteland; it’s there, it exists, but it has no value.

For a prequel, ‘A Quiet Place: Day One’ doesn’t have anything enlightening to disclose.

There’s a handful of compelling ideas that can make for a good movie in ‘The Watchers’, but with this being the feature-length debut of director Ishana Night Shyamalan, those ideas are squandered.

Bad Boys: Ride or Die doesn’t have to be a game-changer, but the film could've been so much more if it didn't confine itself to the traditional formula.

For a film that tries to come off as having Christian values and even haphazardly throws in a silly portrayal of Jesus for extra points, its message is shockingly nihilistic.

James Wan’s Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom is the last breath of a sinking ship. A haze of ideas flashing before one’s eyes without understanding and empathizing with their significance.
