Prey
As a sci-fi, action, drama film, Prey has more style and depth than the original Predator movie but still manages to tie the two films together with common threads offering a plausibility that makes sense.
Bullet Train
Bullet Train is one ride you want to hop on and take it all the way to the end of the line. You won’t be disappointed.
Mrs Harris Goes To Paris
If you want a cute, lighthearted, “gosh, golly gee” kind of movie with incredible fashions, then Mrs Harris Goes To Paris is one right up your alley.
Where the Crawdads Sing
The young, up and coming cast are terrific with Edgar-Jones leading the charge for the others to follow.
Thor: Love and Thunder
Phase four of the MCU has been disappointing for the most part and I’m sad to say Thor: Love and Thunder does nothing to dispel that label.
Minions: The Rise of Gru
As with everything Illumination and Minions, the animation is excellent and the characters are extremely detailed.
Elvis
Between Luhrmann’s interesting decision to focus on the singer’s relationship with his manager and Butler’s outstanding performance makes this a one-ticket that is worth the price of admission.
Tiger 24
Pereira has a keen eye for details and interesting angles, giving the viewer a true sense of just how physically large Ustad, his mate, Noor, and their two cubs are against the vast landscape of Ranthambhore.
Lightyear
Lightyear is not only an entertaining film that both children and adults will enjoy, but it is interesting to learn the beloved character’s backstory.
