Film-Forward

Action

Spider-Man: Brand New Day

Despite juggling a few too many characters and Marvel callbacks, this is ultimately—if not spectacularly—still an exhilarating web-slinging adventure.

Motor City

When it’s not Steve Jablonsky’s original score, you’ll regularly be listening to classic ’70s songs straight out of James Gunn’s favorite soundtracks.

Supergirl

It’s Milly Alcock’s performance that helps stitch Supergirl’s underdeveloped ends into something reasonably engaging.

The Furious

Words can’t begin to describe how epic, powerful, and absolutely bone-crushing the fights are.

Caught Stealing

Darren Aronofsky’s new film bursts into theaters with electrifying energy, a perfect action romp to close out summer escapism.

Honey, Don’t!

Although everyone involved was clearly having fun, that enjoyment doesn’t fully translate to the screen.

Cloud

If an existentialist action film is even possible, Cloud would be a prime example.

Superman

Superman succeeds as a piece of entertainment that inspires hope through kindness, just when we need it most.

From the World of John Wick: Ballerina

If you go to a “John Wick” film, you’re going for the action. Under the eye of director Len Wiseman, Ballerina delivers it with energetic glee.
