Power Ballad

Paul Rudd plays a wedding band singer longing for better days. But though ‘Power Ballad’ strums a few nice chords, it’s no standing O.

Color Book

‘Color Book’ has some quiet and wonderful moments in its black-and-white palette. Too bad there are some off-color language bits, too.

Deep Water

‘Deep Water’ is essentially two disaster movies rolled up in one. Squinting heroism and bloody carnage abound.

Pressure

‘Pressure’ takes us into a little-known wrinkle in perhaps history’s most documented war, and it does so with fewer content concerns than you’d expect.

Mortal Kombat II (2026)

‘Mortal Kombat II’ is a faithful adaptation of its video game source material—which means lots of blood-soaked butchery.

Michael

‘Michael’ covers Michael Jackson’s rise to superstardom with much more style than substance—and a few content issues, too.

Office Romance

Netflix’s ‘Office Romance’ could have been a cute romcom, but it chose to violate the zero-tolerance policy in far too many ways.

Hokum

As a horror flick, ‘Hokum’ works. But it won’t work for everyone. It’s a film that even adults should walk into with their eyes wide open.

In the Grey

‘In the Grey’ feels a lot like ‘Mission Impossible’ with a dash of ‘Oceans 11’ sprinkled in. Except there’s a much higher body count. And a lot more profanity.
