Dystopian sex purge, aging fame, and splatter-filled mayhem: a round of summer film reviews
TL;DR Summary
A roundup of four new releases—One Night Only (a rom‑com satirizing a government sex purge with a disappointing anti‑sex ending), Late Fame (a tender look at aging artist Willem Dafoe), Ice Cream Man (Eli Roth’s gross, practical‑effects horror that outstays its welcome), and Soulm8te (an audacious but blunt AI‑romance thriller)—delivers mixed verdicts, from sharp satire to blunt exploitation and heartbreak.
