IGN has already reviewed quite a few movies in 2026, but only one film has earned a perfect 10 out of 10 (and it's not even out yet!).
As of August 2026, IGN has reviewed several movies, with only one film earning a perfect 10 out of 10. Josephine, directed by Beth de Araújo, is one of the year's most aesthetically sure-footed films, with a powerful performance from eight-year-old Mason Reeves and a haunting portrayal of a young girl overcoming trauma. Channing Tatum and Gemma Chan also deliver strong performances as the child's parents. The film, which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival, is described as visceral, gentle, and ultimately shattering.
Sam Raimi's survival thriller, Send Help, is another highly praised movie, scoring 9 out of 10. The film features Rachel McAdams and Dylan O'Brien as Linda and Bradley, who face a series of terrifying twists and turns as they navigate a mysterious island. The movie delivers intense, gory action and sharp plot turns.
Nirvana the Band the Show the Movie, a daringly silly film, also earned an 8 out of 10. The mockumentary comedy, starring Toronto comedians Matt Johnson and Jay McCaroll, blends elements of low-budget web series, guerrilla prank saga, heartwarming friendship story, and Back to the Future. The film's unique mix of styles and ideas keeps viewers engaged and entertained.
Baz Luhrmann's animated film, EPiC: Elvis Presley in Concert, scored 10 out of 10 as a Masterpiece. The film offers a thrilling tribute to Elvis Presley, showcasing his humanity and energy on the big screen. The movie focuses on Elvis the artist and performer, rather than the man himself, providing a high-energy and captivating experience for fans of the King of Rock and Roll.
