Genre: Thriller/Drama

Genre: Comedy
Director: Scott Moore, Jon Lucas
Cast: Mila Kunis, Kristen Bell, Kathryn Hahn, Christine Baranski, Cheryl Hines, Susan Sarandon, Jay Hernandez, Peter Gallagher

MPAA Rating: "R" (Profanity, Sexual Content, Nudity)
Genre: Drama/Thriller
Director: Marc Forster

Genre: Science Fiction/Thriller
Director: Keir Burrows

"Anti Matter" is the existential successor to 2015’s "Ex Machina" - low-budget sci-fi in which ideas trump effects.
U.S. Release Date: 2017-08-04
MPAA Rating: "R" (Violence, Profanity)
Genre: Thriller
Director: John Stockwell
Cast: Wesley Snipes, Anne Heche, Dave Annable
The lack of a clear direction and vision leads to something haphazard, sloppy, and not remotely viscerally compelling.
