Onslaught
Though boasting some fine acting and solid writing, A24’s ‘Onslaught’ is a pedal-to-the-metal horror action flick with a bit of heart and a lot of blood.
Mayday
‘Mayday,’ from Apple TV, is a throwback to the buddy action comedies of yesteryear. But it comes with some throwback problems, too.
The Runner
‘The Runner’ is a little thumping and foulmouthed. But a mom’s heroics win the cinematic race.
Her Private Hell
‘Her Private Hell’ loves sex, violence and crude language. It’s also too artsy for its good, forsaking good storytelling for abstraction.
The Brink of War
While language and tense themes may place ‘The Brink of War’ out of reach for children, history buffs may find the film investing.
Mobile Suit Gundam Hathaway: The Sorcery of Nymph Circe
‘The Sorcery of Nymph Circe’ is an adult tale that only those familiar with the depths of Gundam lore will comprehend.
Terminator 2: Judgment Day
‘Terminator 2: Judgment Day’ might feel like a sci-fi classic, but the film is as riddled with issues as Arnold Schwarzenegger’s body is with bullets.
Buddy
While ‘Buddy’ may seem friendly, predatory behaviors and excessive violence directed at children will have parents quickly turning off the TV.

Despite its efforts, you shouldn’t go into ‘The Whisper Man’ expecting something like ‘Silence of the Lambs.’ In fact, there are good reasons not to go in at all.
Finding Emily
A charming take on the romcom formula can’t save ‘Finding Emily’ from falling into a content trap that includes sexual and LGBT content.
