From the writers of ‘Booksmart’ and first-time feature director Kyle Marvin comes the tale of four Tom Brady-loving ladies (Lily Tomlin, Sally Field, Rita Moreno, Jane Fonda) who decide to make their way to the 2017 Super Bowl in Houston. From high-stakes poker to pot gummies to ghost pepper wings, […]

True Spirit

Based on the true story of Australian Jessica Watson, who sailed solo around the world at age 16, this solid adventure flick is very much in the vein of ‘Soul Surfer’ and ‘Ride Like a Girl’—true stories of fierce young women who made their mark on the world. The full-of-promise […]

Unexpected

A young couple (Anna Camp and Joseph Mazzello) navigates the difficult realities of infertility as they start their life together on a Midwestern farm in this low-budget Indie from first-time feature director David Hunt.

Shotgun Wedding

Jennifer Lopez and Josh Duhamel star as a bickering couple whose tropical wedding is interrupted by terrorists in this not-half-bad actioner (call it ‘Die Hard at Sandals’) from ‘Pitch Perfect’ director Jason Moore. It’s played for laughs more than anything else, but there’s some decent stuff going on here, and […]

You People

Directed by Kenya Barris (‘black-ish’) and co-written by Jonah Hill, this lazy retread of the fantastic ‘Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner’ may have its heart in the right place, but it collapses under a barrage of tired tropes and the very stereotypes it’s trying to combat. Yes, having Eddie Murphy/Nia […]

Maybe I Do

With a wildly ludicrous coincidence as its main plot point (the two sets of parents of a young couple in love are having—or close to having—affairs with each other, without knowing their relationship to each other), this Nora-Ephron-wannabe is a comedy that never has the legs to get going, much […]

Narvik

This Norwegian historical drama about the 1940 siege of a small but vital town by Hitler’s forces throws the spotlight on a little-known (outside of Scandinavia anyway) chapter of World War II history. Beautifully shot and edited and with powerful performances from all involved, ‘Narvik’ is a war film that […]

Women Talking

Adapted and directed by Sarah Polley, this timely and hard-hitting drama is a dialogue-driven passion play about a colony of women fighting back against the men who have been drugging them and attacking them for years. Rooney Mara and Claire Foy lead the cast and anchor the film with a […]

Alice Darling

Anna Kendrick does perhaps her best work to date in this slow-burn drama about a woman obliviously trapped in a psychologically abusive relationship and the friends who try to help open her eyes. Unfortunately, Kendrick’s power and talent can’t make up for an uneven script that gives her all the […]
