You, Me & Tuscany (2026) 68% 2/4 EDIT “[T]he easily resolvable complications and easily correctable misunderstandings matter much more than the characters.” – Mark Reviews Movies Apr 10, 2026 Full Review Thrash (2026) 36% 1.5/4 EDIT “Wirkola is clearly going for some over-the-top thrills and macabre laughs with Thrash. It and its characters are far too dull for either of those efforts to succeed.” – Mark Reviews Movies Apr 10, 2026 Full Review Outcome (2026) 26% 3/4 EDIT “Reeves is almost certainly at his best in this role...” – Mark Reviews Movies Apr 10, 2026 Full Review Bunnylovr (2025) 63% 2/4 EDIT “Bunnylovr gets bogged down by just how much story the writer/director attempts to incorporate into [it]...” – Mark Reviews Movies Apr 10, 2026 Full Review Steal This Story, Please!

[a] sense of humanity, and it comes through strongly in this complex and layered portrayal of simple lives complicated by customs and a changing world.” – Mark Reviews Movies Apr 2, 2026 Full Review John Lilly and the Earth Coincidence Control Office (2025) 3/4 EDIT “Lilly remains an utterly fascinating and deeply strange man, and this documentary shows several sides of both of those qualities.” – Mark Reviews Movies Apr 2, 2026 Full Review A Great Awakening (2026) 67% 2/4 EDIT “[I]t might have been fascinating to watch how these two characters influence each other ... Such an endeavor would require a fleshed-out story, and clearly, that's not the goal here.” – Mark Reviews Movies Apr 2, 2026 Full Review The Drama (2026) 77% 3/4 EDIT “[I]t's funny, in significant part because it dares to discomfort and provoke in such a specific way.” – Mark Reviews Movies Apr 2, 2026 Full Review The Super Mario Galaxy Movie (2026) 43% 2.5/4 EDIT “The Super Mario Galaxy Movie is at least a hop in the right direction.” – Mark Reviews Movies Apr 1, 2026 Full Review Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice (2026) 78% 1.5/4 EDIT “[I]t becomes clear that the filmmaker has run out of ideas for this premise.” – Mark Reviews Movies Mar 27, 2026 Full Review The AI Doc: Or How I Became an Apocaloptimist (2026) 89% 3/4 EDIT “It's an extensive and engaging examination of AI and a call not to become complacent...” – Mark Reviews Movies Mar 27, 2026 Full Review You're Dating a Narcissist!
