The Box (2026)

We all have our kinks and fetishes and what turns us on the most. Dog Lover details a serious (and at times unhealthy) look at a fetish that might go a little too far. 

The social issues The Half of it takes on are handled well, between the antagonization brought on to Ellie for her race and the conflict that arises from her being gay. Both aspects of her character are built up over the course of the film and don’t seem abrupt or rushed. The film shows racism towards Ellie and her and father in varying levels, from having her schoolmates specifically address her as "Chinese girl” to the fore mentioned way her Dad is treated due to language barriers. The same can be said about Ellie being a lesbian. While she never truly “comes out” in the narrative, that does not undermine her journey of self-discovery from being meaningful. These ideas aren’t thrust upon the viewer in a preachy manor, the scenarios that occur feel believable given the rural setting. The film presents watchers with problems whom those like Ellie may face, and leaves us to sit with them and reflect.

An apocalyptic tale captivates the nation as it teaches us to love even in the hardest situations.

The Outer Senshi get characterization and some stellar moments in the second part of the Eternal movie duo.

This film is based off of The Diary of a Young Girl, which was written during the Holocaust period.

2026 ranks highest in Oscars history for its representation of minorities in all categories, and that’s definitely something to be celebrated.
