Marty Supreme (2025), directed by Josh Safdie, is a frenetic sports comedy-drama starring Timothée Chalamet as Marty Mauser, a ruthless, fast-talking table tennis hustler in 1950s New York chasing ping-pong greatness at any cost. Loosely inspired by Marty Reisman, the film pulses with Uncut Gems-style energy—manic pacing, anachronistic music, and a globe-trotting quest fueled by deception and raw talent. Chalamet delivers a magnetic, nerve-rattling performance as the abrasive yet captivating antihero.

The movie thrives on kinetic direction, vivid period production design, and Chalamet’s tour-de-force lead turn. Supporting players like Gwyneth Paltrow, Odessa A’zion, and eclectic cameos add flavor to the chaotic world of mid-century hustles. Safdie weaves sharp commentary on ambition, class, and self-mythology into explosive rallies and dark humor, though the relentless intensity and unlikeable protagonist can feel exhausting or narratively loose.

Overall, Marty Supreme is a bold, polarizing thrill ride—electrifying and immersive for fans of its chaotic style and Chalamet’s brilliance, but potentially overwhelming or shallow for those wanting tighter plotting or warmer characters. It’s divisive, unforgettable, and leaves you buzzing one way or another.

Oscar Shaw movie about a man who’s a retired police officer goes to a bar consistently every day meet up with his best friend Tyrese Gibson‘s character and from there we see kind of a generic black film of a cop looking for revenge after some hood dude decided to kill a cop former cop and we just have Michael Jai  White trying to do some bad ass stuff. Take care of a child from the hood and then has to do all this vigilante stuff behind the cops back without getting caught. I say the movie is a two out of five compared to other films I’ve seen from Michael White. It was a paint by numbers but some entertaining moments but I’ve seen better and I’m more of enjoying Michael Jackson when he’s fighting more than gun play maybe it could be his age, but the movie was just OK. Wasn’t anything raving about the solid two out of five?

GOAT deserves $1B and a franchise.

Sony Animation (Spider-Verse, K-Pop: Demon Hunters) crafts another bold, original universe: gritty anthropomorphic animals in a world of class divides and roarball—a brutal, co-ed sport dominated by bigger animals.

Stunning animation: lush painterly visuals, inventive designs, fashion, and explosive action that tops Zootopia.

Classic underdog tale elevated by heartfelt teamwork, unity, and real sports parallels (team sales, aging stars), plus quiet inclusivity via strong female players.

Sharp humor (character, pop culture, animal gags) and excellent voice cast: Caleb McLaughlin leads, Gabrielle Union shines, with Nick Kroll, Jenifer Lewis, Aaron Pierre, Patton Oswalt, and more.

Minor flaws: some crude kid jokes, rushed third act, predictable arc.

Bottom line: Rocks. Early best-animated contender of 2026; fresh and franchise-ready. 9/10
