Continue reading Ted Lasso Season 4 Episode 1 ReviewUsually it takes a bit of time for the best movies of 2026 to roll in (they don’t call it Dumpuary for nothing). But the first half of the year has been surprisingly full of solid material, with a handful of films that could make it onto the year-end list. Even the streaming-only fare hasn’t felt like a total waste of time! A solid mix of genres, budgets, and new and experienced filmmakers has made for an exciting anticipation for the second half, and a formidable list of the best movies of 2026 so far.

It makes perfect sense that a Vegas matinee magic show would expose all the flaws within Kenny (Greg Kinnear) and Shyanne’s (Michelle Pfeiffer) relationship. Margo’s Got Money Troubles episode 5 is the longest of season 1 so far, and it gives Pfeiffer more opportunities to show why she’s such an integral part of the show. I was initially concerned that the show was burning through its plot too quickly, given the looming “will-they-won’t-they” nature of Jinx (Nick Offerman) re-entering Shyanne and Margo’s (Elle Fanning) lives, but based on this week’s entry, it seems that we’re far from done with this storyline in the grand scheme of the series.

We’ve arrived at a strange cultural moment when it comes to on-screen representations of sex. On the one hand, there’s so many reports and studies of the younger generation’s aversion to sex scenes. On the other, romance and romantasy novels – of which Margo’s Got Money Troubles is adjacent to at least – are keeping book stores alive, and careers are made from influencers who traffic in the genre. Episode 4 of season 1 sees Margo (Elle Fanning) get her feet wetter in the OnlyFans community, and the further development of its lead trio’s characters.

The sad reality of Margo’s Got Money Troubles lies in the fact that, despite some of the outlandishly comedic details, there are hundreds, if not thousands of similar stories from real women across America facing the same predicaments. Perhaps that’s why Rufi Thorpe’s bestselling novel of the same name was so quickly snatched up to be adapted into the star-studded AppleTV+ series. Thorpe’s novel presents an ordinary American family, and an ordinary heroine, whose circumstances, resulting from an unplanned pregnancy, force her to uncomfortable extremes. Regardless of the show’s familiarity or relatability, TV superproducer David E. Kelley provides a showcase for Elle Fanning in perhaps her best performance yet.
