Movie Review: ‘The Odyssey’

July 20, 2026

Filed Under: Movie & Television Reviews

Place one of Western civilization’s foundational texts in the hands of one of the entertainment industry’s greatest living auteurs and the results are likely to be impressive. And so it proves with “The Odyssey” (Universal), writer-director Christopher Nolan’s lavish and absorbing adaptation of Homer’s epic poem.

The following are capsule reviews of theatrical movies available now for streaming or scheduled for broadcast on network or cable television during the week of July 26, as well as notes on TV programming for the same week.

Movie Review: ‘Moana’

Why be satisfied with an animated success when a live-action re-working of the same tale might also be a hit at the box office? That’s a question that seems to be on the minds of the folks at the Mouse House these days, and so, after several other examples in recent years, we get the musical adventure “Moana” (Disney).

Movie Review: ‘Minions & Monsters’

Set primarily in the Hollywood of the 1920s, the delightful animated comedy “Minions & Monsters” (Universal) is at once director and co-writer Pierre Coffin’s paean to and satire of early Tinseltown.

Movie Review: ‘Supergirl’

June 29, 2026
By John Mulderig
OSV News
Filed Under: Movie & Television Reviews

At what is meant to be a poignant moment in the DC Comics adaptation “Supergirl” (Warner Bros.), the title character, played by Milly Alcock, is told by her mother (Emily Beecham) that she doesn’t have to be nice but she must be good. The recipient of this advice takes it to heart in a way that lends the whole film an unpleasant tone.

Movie Review: ‘Toy Story 5’

Filed Under: Movie & Television Reviews

A deservedly much-loved animated series gets a touching extension with the arrival of “Toy Story 5” (Disney). The franchise’s hallmark combination of sunny humor and emotional intelligence continues to make for outstanding entertainment, this time under the direction of co-writer Andrew Stanton.

Movie Review: ‘Disclosure Day’

June 15, 2026

The truth is out there, and director Steven Spielberg ultimately intends to tell you all about it with his grandiose, vaguely paranoid fantasy “Disclosure Day” (Universal).

Movie Review: ‘Scary Movie’

June 11, 2026
By John Mulderig
OSV News
Filed Under: Movie & Television Reviews

A torrent of degraded sexual jokes overwhelms the few successful one-liners in “Scary Movie” (Paramount), a slipshod send-up of recent horror films and various other aspects of pop culture.

Movie Review: ‘Masters of the Universe’

June 11, 2026
By John Mulderig
OSV News
Filed Under: Movie & Television Reviews

Given that the franchise it extends dates back to the 1982 release of a Mattel line of action toys and that its protagonist’s moniker, when in superhero mode, is He-Man, sensible viewers will not approach the adventure “Masters of the Universe” (Amazon MGM) expecting brilliant insights into the human condition.
