Summer kind of snuck up on us this year. I’ve had a lot going on, culminating in a wonderful vacation that we just returned from. (More on that later.)

Predator: Badlands by Dan Trachtenberg: ★★★☆☆ — Less horror and more action and adventure, this movie explores the Predator universe in a more fun story with a bit of heart.

One Battle After Another by Paul Thomas Anderson: ★★★★☆ — A wild romp of a tale that feels rooted in the racism and revolution of American history and present day simultaneously.

Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die by Gore Verbinski: ★★★★☆ — Sam Rockwell clearly had a blast in this weird sci-fi commentary on social media and AI. It’s probably not for everybody, but I enjoyed the heck out of this.

The Running Man (2025) by Edgar Wright: ★★☆☆☆ — I feel like Edgar Wright directing this should have been a grand slam, but it was just kind of okay at its best.

I flew across the Atlantic and back over the last couple of weeks. (For a wonderful family vacation I'll be sharing more about later.)

I had a chance to watch some newer movies I hadn't yet seen. Incoming review wave!
