MPAA Rating: "R" (Profanity, Sexual Content)
Genre: Comedy
Director: Adamma Ebo
Cast: Regina Hall, Sterling K. Brown, Nicole Beharie, Conphidance, Austin Crute, Devere Rogers
The movie is at times funny, at times blistering, and at times insightful, but it lacks consistency, thereby arguing that perhaps the short film that provided its basis offered a better length.

MPAA Rating: "PG-13" (Violence, Profanity)
Genre: Action
Director: Julius Avery
Cast: Sylvester Stallone, Javon ‘Wanna’ Walton, Pilou Asbaek, ...
Feels like the warmed-up leftovers of a superhero franchise that both Marvel and DC passed on.

MPAA Rating: "R" (Nudity, Sexual Content, Violence, Profanity)
Genre: Fantasy
Director: George Miller

Suffused with hypnotic visuals and anchored by a tremendous performance by Idris Elba, the movie takes its cues from the fantasy workings of Guillermo del Toro and is only occasionally found wanting.

Genre: Comedy
Director: Jeff Baena
Cast: Alison Brie, Aubrey Plaza, Alessandro Nivola, Molly Shannon, Lil Rel Howery, Tim Heidecker, Ben Sinclair
In navigating the curves that connect romance, humor, horror, and murder mystery, the movie suffers a few spin-outs.

Genre: Drama
Director: James Ponsoldt
Cast: Lia Barnett, Sanai Victoria, Madalen Mills, Eden Grace Redfield, Lake Bell, Sarah Cooper, Ashley Madekwe, Megan Mullally
Ponsoldt taps into nostalgia as the jumping-off point for a movie that ultimately goes nowhere, with underdeveloped characters whose stories never gel.

Genre: Thriller/Comedy
Director: Halina Reijn
Cast: Amandla Stenberg, Maria Bakalova, Rachel Sennott, Chase Sui Wonders, Myha’la Herrold, Pete Davidson, Lee Pace
It’s Agatha Christie crossed with "Euphoria," and mostly works as both a slasher murder mystery and a drug/alcohol-fueled Gen Z soap opera.
U.S. Release Date: 2022-08-12
MPAA Rating: "PG-13" (Profanity, Intense Peril)
Genre: Thriller
Director: Scott Mann
Cast: Grace Fulton
As B-movies go, this one is good enough to hold the attention and wring out the tension without doing anything more ambitious.

Genre: Action/Comedy
Director: David Leitch
Cast: Brad Pitt, Zazie Beetz, Sandra Bullock, Michael Shannon, Hiroyuki Sanada, Andrew Koji, Brian Tyree Henry, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Joey King, Benito A Martinez Ocasio
There’s a time and a place for mayhem, and that’s essentially what "Bullet Train" is: two hours of fights, carnage, and witty repartee.
U.S. Release Date: 2022-07-29
MPAA Rating: "R" (Violence, Gore, Profanity, Sexual Content)
Genre: Horror/Thriller
Director: Andrew Semans
Cast: Rebecca Hall, Tim Roth, Grace Kaufman, Michael Esper
More notable for the performances of Tim Roth, Grace Kaufman, and especially Rebecca Hall than the supernatural elements or the narrative.
U.S. Release Date: 2022-07-29
MPAA Rating: "R" (Profanity, Violence)
Genre: Drama/Thriller
Director: B.J. Novak
Cast: B.J. Novak, Boyd Holbrook, Ashton Kutcher, Issa Rae, J. Smith-Cameron, Melissa Chambers, Lio Tipton
Flawed but fresh, Novak's feature got me to laugh with him and at him while taking the story seriously and becoming involved in its quirks and twists.
