June 2026 Movie Rankings: Every Theatrical Release I Saw, Ranked Worst to Best

During June 2026, I watched 12 new movies in theatres using my Regal Unlimited subscription. From major releases like Toy Story 5 and Disclosure Day to smaller films such as Leviticus and Power Ballad, here's my ranking of every movie I saw this month, from worst to best.

If you missed it, check out my May 2026 movie rankings where I reviewed Obsession, Michael, and other theatrical releases.

Warning: there are minimal spoilers ahead.

12. Scary Movie 6 ★☆☆☆☆

"Should we hug?"

"I really want to, but I'm a Republican now, so I'm supposed to be racist."

When you watch a film trailer, you might expect it to be assembled as a highlight reel that drives people to their local theatre. What you might not expect, however, is for the only halfway amusing jokes in Scary Movie 6 to be included in its trailer. Critics will be skeptical of some "anti-woke" dialogue, questioning potential racism and/or transphobia. Social injustices aside, I was simply hoping for a film that would make me laugh. After all, holding a parody to the standard of being funny seems like a reasonable expectation. In lieu of Scary Movie 7, can we see Kevin Hart and Shaquille O'Neal compete in a Slam Dunk Contest instead?

11. The Death of Robin Hood ★★☆☆☆

"People speak of Robin Hood. Tell his stories. They're all lies."

I should preface this review by saying I have always been a fan of Hugh Jackman, from his early roles in X-Men and Van Helsing to more recent releases such as Song Sung Blue and The Sheep Detectives. Unfortunately, it's nearly impossible to be a fan of The Death of Robin Hood. Perhaps its title should have been a "dead" giveaway, but this film is incredibly bleak. The majority of action takes place in the first act, and audiences must then endure two hours of dismal content until a final poignant moment wraps up Robin Hood's story. If you enjoy Shakespearian language and characters walking around with arrows lodged in their skulls, you might find this one worthwhile.

10. Pressure ★★☆☆☆

"We had better meteorologists."

Let's call this film what it is: 100 minutes of tension over a weather forecast. Truthfully, I decided to see this due to excellent reviews, but such reviews were clearly skewed by history buffs. Per IMDB's plot summary, "In the tense 72 hours before D-Day, General Dwight D. Eisenhower and Captain James Stagg face an impossible choice--launch the most dangerous seaborne invasion in history or risk losing the war altogether." I'll blame myself for believing this description promoted a film more exciting than a politically-charged drama destined to finish amongst the least interesting movies of June. I'd rather watch Brendan Fraser read fictional characters out of books again.

9. Stop! That! Train! ★★⯪☆☆

"Tell it to me straight. Now tell it to me gay."

The Glamazonian Express is headed off-the-rails into a Stormaganza. If that sentence intrigues you, Stop! That! Train! might be worth 90 minutes of your time. RuPaul stars as "President Gagwell" and a number of fellow drag queens round out this ensemble cast, with surprise appearances by sitcom stars Joel McHale and Jesse Tyler Ferguson. This film makes little attempt to take itself seriously, firmly landing in the same spoof-comedy territory as Scary Movie 6. Unlike that trainwreck, however, it manages to deliver a few comedic moments that actually work. If you're willing to embrace absolute nonsense,  Adam Shankman and company provide a unique escape here.

8. Jackass: Best and Last ★★⯪☆☆

"We are going to be making history today with the first robot prostate exam."

If you're in the market for a film that earns it laughs by making audiences extremely uncomfortable, look no further. To be clear, there is very little serious content here, aside from the clip where Johnny Knoxville could have died... or perhaps the other clip where Johnny Knoxville could have died. Instead, the film offers a gratuitous amount of male nudity, bodily fluids, and a legitimate risk of brain cell loss. Still, if the point of going to the theatre is to be entertained, Jackass: Best and Last unquestionably succeeds. Hopefully the middle-aged men behind these stunts do actually call it quits, before walking away from a bull attack becomes physically impossible.

7. Supergirl ★★★☆☆

"I'm sorry, I don't... Oh, I don't... Um, I don't speak Kryptonian. I, I never... Shoot. I, I wasn't raised there, so. I WASN'T RAISED THERE. Why am I talking louder?"

Quite honestly, I could either entertain or challenge the criticisms of this film. When Captain Marvel arrived in theatres in 2019, I recall widespread division amongst the fandom, yet found myself captivated by the adventures of Carol Danvers. Why shouldn't audiences enjoy a female-led Marvel film? Unfortunately for DC Studios, I'm not sure Kara Zor-El's story is quite as compelling, despite the undeniably adorable Krypto. In many ways, viewers see "Supergirl" reduced to a supporting role in her own film here. However, it is important to note that this is a direct comic adaptation. While Supergirl may not reinvent the wheel narratively, it is far from a bad film. Have we forgotten Fantastic Four (2015)?

6. Leviticus ★★★☆☆

Conversion Therapy: Horror Edition?

As Pride Month rolls on, Adrian Chiarella's Leviticus leaves viewers with a lot to unpack. Named after a book of the Old Testament, this film essentially pits stereotypical "Christian values" against the LGBTQ+ community. While Chiarella presents a horror story on the surface, it becomes immediately clear that the true villains are parents who would rather unleash a supernatural entity on their children than accept their sexual orientations. It's a thought-provoking message, and while this narrative concludes with a cliffhanger, my biggest complaint is the runtime. 88 minutes simply doesn't feel sufficient to fully explore the depths of this concept.

5. The Furious ★★★⯪✩

A father fights fiercely against ruthless kidnappers to save his abducted daughter.

IMDB's logline for this film was not kidding. The Furious goes absolutely bonkers. Cinematography is redefined here in what essentially becomes a masterclass for the direction and execution of battle scenes. My only real criticism is that the relentless pacing feels almost overwhelming. Viewers sit down, endure nearly two hours of nonstop bloodshed unfolding at breakneck speed, and then exit the theatre in need of an inhaler. What starts as a compelling narrative premise quickly gives way to an all-consuming spectacle of violence, albeit a beautifully-crafted one. (As a small disclaimer, I watched the English dubbing.)

4. Disclosure Day ★★★⯪✩

"Good morning, Kansas City. Let's take a look at today... Let's... let's... Today is... Today..."

At nearly 80 years old, Steven Spielberg still possesses the remarkable ability to captivate audiences worldwide. While Disclosure Day may stumble a bit with some second act pacing issues, a strong inciting incident and unnerving climax easily compensate for any shortcomings. Meanwhile, Emily Blunt, Colman Domingo, and the rest of the ensemble cast deliver truly convincing performances that make this unsettling story feel plausible. I did find myself yearning for action in the traditional, extraterrestrial sense (think Alien vs. Predator), but am willing to admit that personal preference may not have served the story well here. Perhaps that iconic train scene is all we really needed.

3. Masters of the Universe ★★★★☆

"With the new dawn, Eternia shall witness my rise! ...that's it, I finished. When I raise my fist like that, I'm done! That is the crescendo!"

I entered this film vaguely familiar with the monikers "He-Man" and "Skeletor". Frankly, my background knowledge of this source material was non-existent. However, Travis Knight and company quickly won me over with captivating battle scenes, intriguing comedic elements, and a top-tier movie soundtrack -- revitalizing 1983. Certainly, there were plenty of predictable moments throughout the film, but it still seems unfair that Masters of the Universe is destined for box office failure. Unfortunately, a $170 million budget is simply too steep for a superhero movie that isn't immediately marketable to children and young adults. Your friendly neighborhood webslinger is waiting in the wings this summer.

2. Toy Story 5 ★★★★⯪

"Hi, there! I'm Lilypad! Let's play!"

Jessie (Joan Cusack) finally takes center stage in the latest installment of the Toy Story franchise, eager to prove that these beloved toys still have stories to tell following three decades of success. Toy Story 5 depicts eight-year-old Bonnie struggling to fit in with her peers as she secretly prefers childhood toys to the electronic "Lilypad" -- a fitting narrative, given the reality of 2026. While this film clearly relies on nostalgia to draw crowds, thoughtful character evolution prevents it from feeling stale or formulaic. Critics may argue that the narrative leans unnaturally feminist, with Buzz Lightyear simply serving as comic relief in Jessie's story, but booming box office numbers tell a different story. It's safe to say Taylor Swift's endorsement is well-deserved here.

1. Power Ballad ★★★★★

"This could be the song that saves me, or this could be my albatross, but this is all I've got."

Feel free to bitterly close your browser now, but Power Ballad hit all the right notes for me. Insert a plethora of terrible music puns here. On paper, Nick Jonas and Paul Rudd may seem an unlikely duo, but this is a truly memorable, feel-good movie that I felt compelled to revisit. In character as a wedding singer, Rudd covers a variety of classic hits: from Bryan Adams, to Kool & the Gang, and even Thin Lizzy. Initially, the original songs on the soundtrack are perhaps less impressive, though "How To Write A Song Without You" has played on an endless loop in my head for weeks. Shame on the most talented Jonas Brother for attempting to steal it. If I'm choosing one film to revisit from the month of June, it's this one by a "Landslide". See what I did there?

In summary...

June 2026 provided an eclectic lineup for moviegoers, with standout releases like Power Ballad, Toy Story 5, and Masters of the Universe leading the pack. Whether you enjoy music, animation, horror, comedy, or thought-provoking content, there was something worthwhile playing in theaters this month.
