    Sharper
    While Sharper is visually stylish and is driven by some excellent performances from Sebastian Stan, Julianne Moore, and Brianna Middleton, this con-artist thriller overuses the same plot twists so much that they lose all their impact, and later the initially shrewd characters become too easily bamboozled.

    New Gods: Yang Jian
    New Gods: Yang Jiang is worth watching for its novel animated action sequences, but its muddled story lacks the punch of its predecessor, New Gods: Nezha Reborn.

    Spirited
    Even Ryan Reynolds and Will Ferrell aren’t charming enough to redeem AppleTV+’s humbug musical adaptation of A Christmas Carol.

    Black Adam
    Black Adam is overstuffed with underdeveloped concepts and characters that have been done better in other shows and films.

    DC League of Super-Pets
    DC League of Super-Pets isn’t groundbreaking, but it’s a perfect way for DC Comics fans to introduce their kids to their favorite characters and their adorable and surprisingly competent sidekicks.

    Mother/Android
    Mother/Android tries to bring an emotional heart to the robot uprising genre, but it’s so laden with tropes and short on personality that it’s hard to care about the characters. What little novelty exists comes far too late in the long, slow movie.

    Encounter
    Encounter is a tense, and stylish thriller with some excellent performances, but it’s dragged down by a lack of focus and pointless tangents.

    The Witcher: Nightmare of the Wolf
    The Witcher: Nightmare of the Wolf isn’t a bad film, but it fundamentally lacks an identity of its own.

    America: The Motion Picture
    Any goodwill provided by the concept or cast is utterly squandered by a film that packs in endless references without having anything whatsoever to say.
