Toy Story 5
It is still likable, there are some inspired ideas and funny scenes. If the magic is gone, well, the series already had the best possible ending sixteen years ago.

The Furious
Everything here exists to serve the action, which is exciting, entertaining and very well-crafted. If it gets to be a little much by the end, well, thrill rides can be that way sometimes.

Power Ballad

Masters of the Universe
It wants to be a big fantasy action movie, with effects, larger than life heroes and pure evil villains. It also wants to be a sendup of exactly that kind of movie. It turns out that this combination does not work.

Backrooms
It is unsettling, disturbing, deeply weird, surreal and effective, even if I can’t always explain how it is those things. It is fascinating.

Pressure
It is a workmanlike production that trusts in the uniqueness of its story and some quality performances by a cast of capable professionals, to be solid entertainment. It is respectful and reasonably enjoyable.

I Love Boosters
This takes aim at class, culture and race in a lively, unsubtle, pull-no-punches kind of way. It also does many other things, some of them very strange. It is extremely entertaining.

Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu
A standalone entry that doesn’t really further the plot of the show in any way, almost like it was designed to appeal to audiences who have never seen the show.

Obsession
It is a pretty solid genre entry that occasionally hints at the richer story dancing at its edges.
