Sacrifice (2026)
During a star-studded charity gala brimming with celebrities, billionaires and empty speeches, a movie star in the midst of an existential crisis is taken hostage by a radical warrior and her devoted followers.

What kind of watch this is
Sacrifice is a 100-minute blend of action and comedy where a celebrity gala turns into a hostage situation. Romain Gavras directs Chris Evans and Anya Taylor-Joy through a night that starts with empty speeches and ends in total chaos. The hook is the blur between performance and belief, as a star facing an existential crisis meets a radical warrior and her devoted followers. It is a film about the gap between the character you play and the person you are, staged in a room full of people who care about neither.
What the critics said
Rotten Tomatoes sits at 38% as of December 2025. Metacritic lands on 48 out of 100, which it classifies as mixed or average. Critics noted it is one of the lowest-rated films to premiere at fall festivals. The consensus is polite but lukewarm. It is the kind of movie that gets a polite nod, then gets forgotten.
How it did with audiences
On TMDB, users give it a 5.6 out of 10. That score sits comfortably in the middle, which usually means the film did exactly what it set out to do without demanding you do it back. It is a steady, unremarkable mark for a movie that likely never wanted to be remarkable.
