When ChatGPT took the world by storm after 2020, an AI horror film emerged that captured the cutting edge of the era. That film is M3GAN. This ambitious work avoids the grotesque horror tropes common in the genre, instead presenting a new form of terror: the runaway consequences of love. While accessible even to horror newcomers, it masterfully balances entertainment with social commentary, embedding sharp critiques of modern society within its narrative.

“TAR” is Todd Field’s first feature film in 16 years, and it’s an ambitious psychological thriller about the fall of the Berlin Philharmonic’s first female principal conductor. The film captures the spirit of the 2020s, especially the rise of cancel culture. Cate Blanchett’s powerful performance and the film’s visual style stand out, but its long runtime and complex structure mean it will mostly appeal to a select audience. By focusing on artistry rather than entertainment, it’s the kind of film that “critics rave about while general audiences are left perplexed.”

The story takes place in 1994 New York, where the Autobots join forces with the animal-shaped Maximals to face Unicron, a planet-eating villain. Fans of the Japanese series “Beast Wars” will be happy to see these characters appear in a Hollywood film for the first time. Director Steven Caple Jr. sets the action seven years after “Bumblebee,” giving the series a new feel. The movie blends old memories with new ideas, but it delivers only about 60% of what fans might hope for.

Travis Block (Liam Neeson) works as a “fixer” for the FBI Director, handling secret missions to save undercover agents and erase their tracks. After one agent, Dusty, claims the FBI is killing innocent people and is then killed while trying to share this with a journalist, Travis joins forces with reporter Mira to find out what’s really going on. They discover a secret program called “Operation Unity.” But when Travis’s own daughter and granddaughter are threatened, the fight becomes personal.

The DC superhero film The Flash faced many delays and controversies. Its production was difficult, with director changes, Ezra Miller’s scheduling conflicts due to work on the Fantastic Beasts series, filming stops because of COVID-19, and, most notably, the lead actor’s repeated legal issues. Even so, the film was finished with a $200 million budget and stands as the unofficial end of the DC Extended Universe. At the same time, it acts as an important link to the new DC Universe. Director Andy Muschietti, known for showing young characters growing up in the two-part IT series, takes inspiration from the classic DC Comics story Flashpoint. He gives the story a […]

MEG: The Monster 2 isn’t just a movie you watch—it’s one you experience. As the sequel to the 2018 original, which made over $500 million worldwide and even outperformed Jaws to become the top-grossing shark movie ever, it offers thrilling entertainment across three settings: the deep sea, the ocean surface, and land.

The film “The Meg” revitalizes the shark movie genre by reintroducing the ancient Megalodon. Jason Statham delivers an energetic performance that matches the film’s large-scale oceanic setting. The straightforward storyline, minimal dramatics, and the inclusion of an international cast, such as Li Bingbing, provide the excitement expected from a shark movie.

In his version of “Nightmare Alley,” Guillermo del Toro leaves out the supernatural to focus on how unchecked desire leads to a man's downfall. The film’s striking visuals and Bradley Cooper’s layered performance create a gripping noir that blends classic Hollywood style with sharp insights about ambition. Even though it runs long, the movie keeps adult viewers engaged.

Director Zack Kreger, who made ‘Barbarian,’ returns with a bigger-budget film. This horror mystery tells the story of 17 children who vanish from their class at 2:17 AM, with the truth revealed from different viewpoints. The film uses a tense, non-linear structure, an unsettling mood like Us and Hereditary, and explores social themes in the style of Jordan Peele. While some viewers are split on the ending, the script and direction have earned strong praise. Blending horror, suspense, and mystery, WEAPONS stands out as a must-see film for 2025.

Blue Beetle brings a lesser-known DC hero to the screen, telling a warm family story that blends Latin culture with eye-catching suit design. Although it shares some familiar elements with Iron Man and Spider-Man, its cultural focus and impressive effects make it unique.
