Rating: R Stars: Kara Young, Mallori Johnson, Xavier Mills, Justen Ross, Josiah Cross, Vivica A. Fox, Janelle Monáe, Mykelti Williamson, Erika Alexander, Sterling K. Brown Writer: Aleshea Harris, based on her play Director: Aleshea Harris Distributor: Amazon/MGM/Orion Release Date: May 15, 2026 In adapting her stage play IS GOD IS, writer/director Aleshea Harris can and does make the horrifying aspects of her story more visually visceral. Theatre can do a lot, including some things that film can’t, but close-ups of a burn-scarred face come off as more literal onscreen. Burn scars play a big role in IS GOD IS, which […]Read On »

Rating: Not Rated Stars: Georgie Farmer, Yasmin Finney, James Scholz, Roman Hayek-Green, Jessica Reynolds, Charlie Creed-Miles Writers: Ronan Corrigan & Hope Elliott Kemp Director: Ronan Corrigan Distributor: Iconic Events Releasing/Triple Media Film Release Date: May 15, 2026 LIFEHACK is a movie that quickly makes you question your own life choices. These won’t be so much about morality, love or employment as they are about, “Does anything I do online make anybody likely to hack me?” Technically a heist thriller, LIFEHACK belongs to the “screens” subgenre, in which all the action is shown on some type of screen, such as computers, […]Read On »

THE WAY HOME is an unusual series for the Hallmark Channel. While the network thrives on family drama and romance – and THE WAY HOME has plenty of both – it doesn’t often feature elements like time travel as a major propeller of the plot. Created by Marly Reed & the daughter/mother team of Alexandra Clarke & Heather Conkie, THE WAY HOME centers on the Landry family, whose little Canadian farm includes a pond that can transport any Landry, and anyone accompanying them, back as far as 1814, or to when their parents were growing up, as teen Sadie Laflamme-Snow […]Read On »

Movie Review: AFFECTION

AFFECTION movie poster | ©2026 Brainstorm Media

Rating: Not Rated Stars: Jessica Rothe, Joseph Cross, Julianna Layne Writer: BT Meza Director: BT Meza Distributor: Brainstorm Media Release Date: May 8, 2026  AFFECTION is an odd title for this tale. While it is about a number of topics and emotions, fondness isn’t one of them. Obsession, definitely. Love, possibly. The kind of general warm fellow feelings associated with “affection”? No. There have been a lot of movies lately in which characters – mostly women – are grappling with false identities and/or false memories imposed upon them, mostly by men. Let us stipulate that the protagonist (Jessica Rothe) in […]Read On »

ITCH! Movie Poster | ©2026 Trinity Content Partners/Seven Tales

Rating: Not Rated Stars: Jay Kang, Olivia Kang, Monica De Oliveira, Steven Alonte, Mia Ventura Lucas, Patrick Michael Valley, Douglas Stirling, Ximena Uribe Writer: Bari Kang Director: Bari Kang Distributor: Trinity Content Partners/Seven Tales Release Date: April 21, 2026 (VOD, U.S./U.K.) Despite the exclamation point in its title and the playfulness of having the look of a “scratchy” print at the start and finish, ITCH! is absolutely not a comedy. It is and isn’t technically a zombie movie, in that people are lethal before death, a la the 28 … LATER franchise. Here, victims of a disease of unknown origin […]Read On »

Movie Review: OBSESSION

OBSESSION movie poster | ©2026 Focus Features

Rating: R Stars: Michael Johnston, Inde Navarrette, Cooper Tomlinson, Megan Lawless, Andy Richter, Haley Fitzgerald, Darin Toonder Writer: Curry Barker Director: Curry Barker Distributor: Focus Features Release Date: May 15, 2026 There are whole supernatural subgenres of fantasy (lighter) and horror (darker) about wishes. The stories predate movies and TV, going back to Greek/Roman/Asian mythology. Whether the intention is to make us laugh, cry, and/or scream, what these tales generally have in common is the message that one should be careful and restrained in making wishes, as these wishes can, and generally do, have unintended consequences. This is the case […]Read On »

Rating: R Stars: Adam Scott, Peter Coonan, David Wilmot, Florence Ordesh, Michael Patric, Will O’Connell, Brendan Conroy, Austin Amelio, Ezra Carlisle, Mallory Adams, Sioux Carroll Writer: Damian McCarthy Director: Damian McCarthy Distributor: Neon Release Date: May 1, 2026 American novelist Ohm Bauman (Adam Scott) is at the Bilberry Woods Hotel in Ireland in order to scatter his parents’ ashes in the surrounding forest, per their wishes. Despite being a famous author worldwide – even the staff at the out-of-the-way Bilberry have read his books – Bauman is bleak, depressed, and cynical. His opinion of local folklore is that it’s “hokum.” […]Read On »

Rating: PG Stars (voices): Seth Rogen, Gaten Matarazzo, Steve Buscemi, Glenn Close, Laverne Cox, Kieran Culkin, Woody Harrelson, Jim Parsons, Andy Serkis, Kathleen Turner, Iman Vellani Writer: Nicholas Stoller, based on George Orwell’s ANIMAL FARM Director: Andy Serkis Distributor: Angel Studios Release Date: May 1, 2026 George Orwell’s short 1945 novel ANIMAL FARM has often been adapted in animated versions for the big screen, but this new edition is probably the most family-friendly of them all. Despite the title and talking barnyard characters, Orwell’s original is a dark political parable, full of betrayal, despair and death. Most of the movies […]Read On »
