Nosferatu
As someone who went through a deep and intense vampire phase when I was about 13, one that never really ended, words could not describe how excited I was when the remake of Nosferatu was announced. Now I hate remakes on principal but I will never say no to more vampires. Vampires are always good, especially when we take them back to their roots. For those of you who don’t know the original Nosferatu film was an unauthorized Dracula adaptation so if you are noticing a beat for beat resemblance, you should.

Hit Man
Glen Powell has been a busy boy this year, for some reason. He is the most successful mediocre actor that I have ever seen. He is moderately attractive and somewhat talented. He is the most average that Hollywood has to offer and thus we all must endure him in about a thousand projects. It is one of many films this year that premiered at film festivals last year but earned their award eligibility this year. That is, they were released in theatres this year before being bought and distributed by streaming services. Hit Man did have theatrical runs in limited cities, normally that is done just so films can be eligible for awards.

Sonic the Hedgehog 3 Review: A Fast-Paced Adventure with Mixed Results
The Sonic film franchise has come a long way, and with Sonic the Hedgehog 3, it’s clear that the filmmakers have embraced the larger-than-life action and nostalgia fans crave. However, while it stands as an improvement over its predecessors in many ways, the film doesn't completely escape the pitfalls of predictable storytelling and uneven humor.

Kraven the Hunter Movie Review: An Action-Packed Superhero Flick That Lacks Soul
Director JC Chandor, known for his compelling filmography, ventures into the superhero genre with Kraven: The Hunter. Unfortunately, the film falls short of expectations, delivering an average experience that leans more toward a generic action film than a memorable superhero spectacle.

Carry-On
Netflix has really cranked out the original content this year. Some of it good, some of it really really not but that is a separate discussion. We will now be diving into the plethora of original films Netflix has come out with this year. Starting with Carry-On, a new Jason Bateman film that is by all means a Christmas movie. Now I don’t have a lot of faith in Netflix’s original movies. They are more often than not, truly terrible, but it came out in 2024 which means that it is on the watch list.

Foe
Saorise Ronan has been on the independent film train this year. She is using her incredible talent to highlight why smaller budget films are what cinema can be. FOE was released earlier this year and is based on a book. Now as the film never hit theatres it is not eligible for awards season, but we will talk a little bit about that later. I am trying to assemble a little, mini awards show for streaming services which feels like it's bound to happen eventually anyway. For now it will happen on my YouTube channel with me as all the presenters.

A Borderlands Fan’s Painful Review: Why the ‘Borderlands’ Movie Misses the Mark
Making a good video game adaptation is notoriously challenging, but fans of the Borderlands franchise had hope that its unique mix of chaos, humor, and rich characters would translate well to the big screen. Sadly, the Borderlands movie falls far short of those expectations. As someone who’s logged hundreds of hours across the games, I approached the film cautiously optimistic. What I found, however, was neither a good movie nor a faithful adaptation.
