'Verity' Can't Indulge in the Depravity of Its Source Material │ Exclaim! (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Starring Anne Hathaway, Dakota Johnson, Josh Hartnett, Ismael Cruz Cordova, Brady Wagner BY Billie AndersonPublished Sep 30, 2026 I've never read a Colleen Hoover novel, partly because they're not my thing and partly because the cultural mythology surrounding them has done little to convince me otherwise. Verity, however, has always interested me — maybe because it feels unlike her other work, or because of its early induction into the BookTok hall of fame. So, ahead of Michael Showalter's adapt
'The Weight' Is Satisfyingly Hefty │ Exclaim! (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Starring Ethan Hawke, Russell Crowe, Julia Jones, Austin Amelio, Avi Nash, Sam Hazeldine, Avy Berry BY Billie AndersonPublished Sep 15, 2026 Padraic McKinley's newest film is heavy — and I mean that literally. Gold, as it turns out, weighs a ton, but Murphy (Ethan Hawke) would probably say that grief, poverty, incarceration and being separated from his daughter weigh a whole lot more.

Read excerpt
Starring Dave Franco, O’Shea Jackson Jr., Mason Thames, Kiernan Shipka, Nicholas Braun, Peter Dinklage BY Billie AndersonPublished Aug 26, 2026 Macon Blair has spent much of his career around people who get themselves into trouble they are spectacularly unequipped to handle.

'Spa Weekend' Mistakes Loudness for Comedy │ Exclaim! (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Starring Leslie Mann, Isla Fisher, Michelle Buteau, Anna Faris, Adam Demos, Erika Heynatz, Dominic Ona-Ariki BY Billie AndersonPublished Aug 24, 2026 A particular laziness permeates the ensemble friendship comedy that assumes casting four funny actors constitutes characterization. Spa Weekend assembles Leslie Mann, Isla Fisher, Michelle Buteau and Anna Faris, four performers whose individual comic abilities should make them an easy group to root for, but writer-director duo Jon Lucas and Scott M
'The Rivals of Amziah King' Buzzes with McConaughey-ness, Alright Alright │ Exclaim! (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Starring Matthew McConaughey, Angelina LookingGlass, Cole Sprouse, Scott Shepherd, Rob Morgan, Tony Revolori, Jake Horowitz, Kurt Russell BY Billie AndersonPublished Aug 13, 2026 Apparently, we have not been taking the American honey industry seriously enough. Andrew Patterson's The Rivals of Amziah King has poisoned bees, stolen honey, territorial beekeepers and, eventually, a full-blown heist. It makes a compelling case that everyone should cultivate a community willing to commit several felon
