“28 Years Later: The Bone Temple“

It’s legitimately hard to believe this played in multiplexes across the country. Sure, last year’s “28 Years Later” was legitimately intense, but this follow-up from Nia DaCosta is even more unhinged in consistently mesmerizing ways. A study of the evil of which men are capable, it continues the story of the last film in a way that unpacks religion, philosophy, and resilience while remaining continuously unpredictable. Ralph Fiennes gives maybe the most fearless performance of the year to date in a movie that’s almost hard to put into words. It kinda bombed, but history won’t remember that, especially if Danny Boyle and Alex Garland are allowed to return and close this trilogy out the way they should.

“Die My Love“

History will regard the snub of Jennifer Lawrence for an Oscar nomination for her fearless work in this Lynne Ramsay drama as one of the most egregious oversights of the era. Lawrence is incredible as a young mother losing her grip on reality. Co-starring Robert Pattinson, Nick Nolte, and Sissy Spacek, Ramsay’s film doesn’t seek to capture post-partum depression and manic disorder as much as make you feel like you’re going through the same. It is disjointed in a manner that’s gut-churning, all of it driven by Lawrence’s organic, passionate work. It’s nice to see a streaming service like MUBI take the time to release their films on physical media, but a single special feature would have been nice. Maybe they’re prepping a Criterion edition?

“The Eye” (Arrow)

The breakthrough international hit by the Pang brothers, this 2002 Hong Kong film rode the wave of Asian horror hits from the era like “Ringu,” “Pulse,” and “A Tale of Two Sisters.” Its legacy was slightly degraded by the truly awful 2008 Jessica Alba remake and mediocre sequels directed by the Pangs, but the original is still a banger, and it got the Arrow treatment this month with a new transfer and great new special features, including a visual essay by the brilliant Heather Wixson. The plot is wonderfully simple: A blind violinist receives a cornea transplant, and starts to see things that no one else can see. It’s a haunting piece of work that’s held up better than a lot of films from its era.

Special Features

Reflections on The Eye, a brand new interview with producer Peter Ho-Sun Chan To See and to Feel: Vision, Empathy and the Feminine Ghost Story in The Eye, a brand new visual essay on the film by critic and horror specialist Heather Wixson An archival making-of featurette with interviews with producers Peter Ho-Sun Chan and Lawrence Cheng and actors Angelica Lee and Lawrence Chou An archival featurette on directors Danny and Oxide Pang Original theatrical trailers Image gallery Reversible sleeve featuring original and newly commissioned artwork by Tommy Pocket Collectors’ booklet featuring new writing on the film by film critic and Asian cinema specialist Hayley Scanlon

“Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die“

The brilliant director of “Rango” and “A Cure for Wellness” finally returned in early 2026 with this clever sci-fi movie about a man (Sam Rockwell) who travels back in time to stop the A.I. apocalypse (timely!). Matthew Robinson’s script then branches off to introduce viewers to the people who will help this new John Connor, and reveals how much their lives have been impacted by dangerously developed technology, including characters played by Haley Lu Richardseon, Michael Pena, Zazie Beetz, and Juno Temple. It kinda bombed in theaters back in February; give it a chance on streaming or social media.

“Great Absence“

Kei Chikaura’s personal and moving drama from 2023 has finally received a stateside physical release from Vinegar Syndrome with an essay by yours truly! This nuanced character study tells the tale of a filmmaker who is forced to reconcile with his estranged father after the latter is diagnosed with dementia. Secrets about his family’s past emerge through a mystery surrounding a missing woman. Delicate and subtle, this is a great drama.

“Greenland 2: Migration“

2020’s “Greenland” was a surprising success, a film that avoided the traps of the disaster genre by focusing on its characters, and allowing Gerard Butler to give one of his best performances. Sadly, the sequel dives right into most of those traps, avoiding actual character work for poorly devised set pieces. It’s best to forget this flop exists, but Butler-heads out there may want to know for their collection. Consider yourself informed.

“Highest 2 Lowest“

Spike Lee’s remix of Akira Kurosawa’s “High and Low” is one of my favorite movies of 2025, a film that seems like it was widely misunderstood by its detractors, and one that reminds us how good Denzel Washington can be when he works with Lee. In their fifth collaboration, Washington plays a wealthy music exec who believes his son has been kidnapped, only to learn that the kidnappers grabbed his driver and friend’s son instead. Washington, Jeffrey Wright, and ASAP Rocky are all fantastic, but it’s the playfulness of Lee’s direction that I love, especially the reading that this film is about his own creative passion. Notice how the filmmaking style changes when the film’s protagonist goes from his Ivory Tower to the streets below, an almost biographical commentary on how Lee gets his drive from the city he loves more than any modern filmmaker. It’s also worth noting that this is an Apple TV film that’s escaped streaming to get a physical release from A24. Pick it up on their website.

“Innerspace” (Arrow)

One of my favorite directors of his generation, Joe Dante, has been getting more and more of his deserved flowers with every passing year. Whether it’s the remake of “The Burbs” or the near-constant rotation of “Gremlins” in the pop culture sphere, Dante’s brand of B-movie brilliance has been underrated in its influence. And now the time has come to reappreciate his 1987 sci-fi comedy starring Dennis Quaid, Martin Short, and Meg Ryan. Quaid plays Lt. Tuck Pendleton, an aviator who ends up shrunk down and inside the body of poor Short in this remarkable variation on “Fantastic Voyage.” Short’s gift for physical comedy holds the film together, but what’s most notable here is the boatload of special features accompanying this new 4K restoration, including a new commentary, archival one with Dante, new documentaries, and never-before-seen featurettes. It’s one of the best Arrow drops of the year.

Special Features

“Marty Supreme“

What more could possibly be said about Josh Safdie’s fantastic drama, a film that went through the spin cycle of awards season from darling to villain? Losing every single Oscar category in which it was nominated probably actually did the film a favor in that it can be reappreciated and resurrected freed from all that nonsense. I stand by my 4-star review of the film linked above, and admire A24’s exclusive release of the flick on physical media with a commentary, featurette, and even physical postcards. Send one to a hater.

“Monty Python’s The Life of Brian” (Criterion)

It’s funny to think there was a time when a comedy troupe consisted of some of the biggest stars in the world. People don’t realize the heights that Monty Python reached. This 1979 film was the 4th highest grossing movie in the U.K. that year and the highest-grossing from that country in the U.S. It is regularly on lists of the best comedies of all time, and Criterion has now upgraded their original DVD edition, which was out of print to a 4K version with a restoration overseen by Terry Gilliam. The release also includes the original audio commentaries, a making-of doc from 2007, one from 1979, and much more. It’s one of the densest releases of the year when it comes to special features.

Special Features

New 4K digital restoration, supervised by Monty Python’s Terry Gilliam, with 2.0 surround DTS-HD Master Audio soundtrack Alternate 5.1 surround DTS-HD Master Audio soundtrack One 4K UHD disc of the film presented in Dolby Vision HDR and one Blu-ray with the special features Two audio commentaries featuring Pythons Gilliam, John Cleese, Eric Idle, Terry Jones, and Michael Palin The Story of Brian (2007), a making-of documentary The Pythons (1979), a documentary about Monty Python filmed on location for Life of Brian Behind-the-scenes Super 8 film shot by Palin Five deleted scenes with commentary by the Pythons Original British radio ads starring Mrs. Cleese, Mrs. Gilliam, Mrs. Idle, and Palin’s dentist Original illustrated recording by the Pythons of an early version of their screenplay Animated stills gallery Trailer English subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing PLUS: An essay by film critic Bilge Ebiri

“Point Blank” (Criterion)

Lee Marvin gives one of the most memorable performances of his career in this John Boorman adaptation of the novel The Hunter by Donald E. Westlake. Relatively underappreciated in its time, it’s a movie that historians and critics have consistently returned to, and it was even inducted into the National Film Registry in 2016. This month, Criterion dropped a 4K restoration overseen by Boorman, and included an incredible commentary in which he is joined by Steven Soderbergh. There are also new features, including an interview with the genius Mark Harris, reflections on the film by Jim Jarmusch, and much more. This one is a must-own.

Special Features

New 4K digital restoration, supervised and approved by director John Boorman, with uncompressed monaural soundtrack One 4K UHD disc of the film presented in Dolby Vision HDR and one Blu-ray with the film and special features Audio commentary featuring Boorman and filmmaker Steven Soderbergh Interview with Boorman conducted by author Geoff Dyer New interview with critic Mark Harris New reflections on Point Blank by filmmaker Jim Jarmusch New program on the midcentury Los Angeles architecture featured in the film, with historian Alison Martino The Rock (1967), a short documentary on Alcatraz and the making of the film Interview with Marvin from a 1970 episode of The Dick Cavett Show Trailer English subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing PLUS: An essay by Dyer

“Send Help“

Sam Raimi, don’t stay away so long next time. The inventive director of “Evil Dead” and “Drag Me to Hell” returned to genre filmmaking this year with one of 2025’s best, a rollicking thriller about a woman (Rachel McAdams) stuck on a deserted isle after crashing there with her awful boss (Dylan O’Brien). More than just a traditional survival thriller, it hums with Raimi’s visual ingenuity and twisted sense of humor. It helps that McAdams and O’Brien are on Raimi’s wavelength, reminding viewers how much fun a blockbuster can be. This one did very well with critics and viewers. Watch it again.
