Quick thoughts and reviews of all the new releases I was able to catch in July.
Friendship (2025)
★★★1/2 Whether you love it or hate it, Tim Robinson's cringeworthy comedic style translates effectively to the big screen in this painful and uncomfortable film about losing friendships.
Jurassic World Rebirth (2025)
★★1/2 After a ,messy start. this attempted reboot of the "Jurassic Park" franchise slowly finds its footing but at no point was there a sense of scale or awe befitting the prehistoric creatures.
Bring Her Back (2025)
★★★★1/2 Sally Hawkins' disturbed and grieving foster parent takes in two unsuspecting teenagers in this grim and unsettling supernatural body horror from the twins behind 2022's "Talk to Me".
June Movie Round-Up
Quick thoughts and reviews of all the new releases I was able to catch in June
F1: The Movie (2025)
★★★★ This feature length advertisement for F1 is ironically formulaic in its storytelling, but some exhilarating race sequences and a charismatic Brad Pitt make for a breath-taking cinematic experience.
28 Years Later (2025)
★★★★1/2 This highly anticipated zombie sequel sees Danny Boyle and Alex Garland recapture the urgency and visceral intensity of the ground-breaking original by addressing modern social anxieties.
How to Train Your Dragon (2025)
★★★1/2 This charming yet overly loyal live-action adaptation of the animated classic suggests that DreamWorks haven't learned from Disney's mistakes, as they are also guilty of profiting from a beloved IP's legacy.
