Love burns brightest when you believe you’re worthy of its heat. Celine Song’s 'Materialists' is a rom-dram about self-worth—real love doesn’t add value, it sees yours. Chris Evans blends charm & ache; Zoë Winters steals every scene. It’s for us singles who still believe.

Ballerina: Ana de Armas fights like a girl in John Wick spin-off that features fun stunt sequences and inventive fight choreography. Review: withashleyandco.com/2025/06/baller… #BallerinaMovie

Why don't we have this anymore??

Predator Killer of Killers is a gloriously violent, fast-paced sci-fi monster flick that delivers all the goods with no filler. Review: withashleyandco.com/2025/06/predat… #PredatorKillerofKillers

I belatedly caught #BallerinaMovie yesterday and while it has some obvious flaws that such a spinoff would stumble onto, I found it to still be a fun action popcorn flick that expanded the lore of that world a little bit: 🔗 mendezmoviereport.com/p/ballerina

To my small surprise #ThePhoenicianScheme ended up my fav Wes Anderson film in a while. I found it hilarious and heartwarming as Wes' comedic version of 'A Matter Of Life And Death'. It'll end up among one of my favs of the whole year: 🔗 mendezmoviereport.com/p/phoeniciansc…

The live action #HowToTrainYourDragon is literally a shot-for-shot remake of the original 2010 animated film. Which means its a solid popcorn flick for the whole family, but at the same time they literally have this movie at home: 🔗 mendezmoviereport.com/p/httyd

As one who walked away underwhelmed and apathetic about 'Past Lives', #MaterialistsMovie is a significant step-up for Celine Song in my book. A romantic drama with rom-com tropes that also takes an unflinching, sometimes ugly, look at modern dating: 🔗 mendezmoviereport.com/p/materialists

"Me encantaría ver más historias en este absurdo y agresivo universo." Entren a Me Gusta El Cine para leer mi crítica de #BAILARINA, un violento spin-off del universo John Wick con Ana de Armas. AQUÍ ➡️ tinyurl.com/BailariMGC #Ballerina #JohnWick #AnaDeArmas #MeGustaElCine

After a rough start in its first (though labeled third) act, #TheLifeOfChuck becomes an impressive adaptation of one of Stephen King's novellas. This is the best adaptation of a King tale since the IT films, and sure to be among my favs of the year: 🔗 mendezmoviereport.com/p/lifeofchuck

Today's the day we get to celebrate our friend and member Héctor González. Wishing you the biggest HAPPY BIRTHDAY today!!! We hope the year ahead is bright and exciting for you. Feel free to celebrate our friend Hector by checking out his fantastic work at linktr.ee/hectorha

#F1TheMovie proves that Joseph Kosinski knows how to make your dad's favorite movies. From its underdog narrative that had me rooting for a team of a sport I don't even watch, to its amazing techs & soundtrack, this is one of the best of the year: 🔗 mendezmoviereport.com/p/f1movie

"Hecha de la forma más respetuosa y cuidadosa posible." Entren a Me Gusta El Cine para leer mi crítica de #HowToTrainYourDragon, un correcto remake en acción en vivo de la popular película animada. AQUÍ ➡️ tinyurl.com/CEATDmgc #ComoEntrenarATuDragon #HowToTrainYourDragon #HTTYDragon #MGC

As one who isn't really into Zombie horror or post apocalyptic tales, #28YearsLater stood out as a subversion of the sub-genre that I can get behind. A "coming of age" horror epic that could be setting the table for a solid trilogy: 🔗 mendezmoviereport.com/p/28yearslater

✨👽 Pixar #Elio is a visually stunning, interstellar galactic adventure through the dazzling Communiverse — a wonderous, whimsical and wildly original cosmic coming-of-age odyssey of identity, loneliness & connection. With vibrant animation, heartfelt performances and a soaring

Sorry, but I low-key hated #M3GAN2, or how to follow-up one of 2023's best horror films with a cringe sci-fi action comedy that got more sighs than chuckles from me. Baffling choices that left me disappointed, no matter how good the visuals were: 🔗 mendezmoviereport.com/p/m3gan2

"Un remix de todo lo que ha pasado en los filmes anteriores." Entren a Me Gusta El Cine para leer mi crítica de Jurassic World: #Renace, una floja secuela protagonizada por Scarlett Johansson. AQUÍ ➡️ tinyurl.com/JuraRenMGC #JurassicWorld #JurassicWorldRebirth #MeGustaElCine

"They actually put the dinosaurs front and centre of the film again and they are indeed glorious. Brought to life through some wonderful visual effects and use of animatronics, the sense of awe and wonder is brought back to the franchise." ★★★★ Review | #JurassicWorldRebirth

#JurassicWorldRebirth is a better film than the previous two middling ones, and it's an easy popcorn flick to recommend for audiences. That said, the film makes some frustrating decisions that really self-sabotage it from being something special: 🔗 mendezmoviereport.com/p/jurassicworl…
