Sinners was easily one of the strongest films I saw this month. Everything from the cast to the execution worked beautifully. It brought something refreshingly different that we don’t often get from most films today.

Another pleasant surprise was The Minecraft Movie. While quirky and full of clichés, it worked—thanks in large part to Jack Black and Jason Momoa. The buddy-comedy tone made it a fun watch. I also enjoyed About My Father, led by the always-great Robert DeNiro. He brings charm to every role.

On the thriller side, Drop delivered a suspenseful ride centered around social media and a string of potential murders. Not perfect, but engaging enough to keep me glued to the screen. In a similar dark corner of cinema, Creep (2004) was bizarre yet compelling—definitely one to check out if you enjoy horror that leans into psychological discomfort.

However, not every film landed for me. The Mouse Trap didn’t deliver much of anything—it felt poorly written and sluggish. Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey had more going for it visually, but its story fell flat. Still, I’m intrigued enough to watch the sequel soon and will share a follow-up article comparing both.
