Ricky Stanicky ★★☆☆☆
Ricky Stanicky aims for outrageous buddy comedy but falls short, blending recycled gags with juvenile humor that feels more forced than funny, despite John Cena’s committed performance.

Akira ★★★★★
If the Apocalypse had a neon glow and came with psychic-powered teenagers on motorcycles, it would look a lot like Akira.
Fallen Angels ★★★☆☆
Fallen Angels is a neon-drenched fever dream of love, loneliness, and longing, capturing the chaotic beauty of urban life in Wong Kar-wai’s signature, dizzying style.
Tetris ★★☆☆☆
Tetris aims for Cold War intrigue but delivers a clunky boardroom thriller that misses the addictive spark of the game, leaving viewers stacking frustration rather than excitement.
1984 ★★★☆☆
