The experience of watching "Joker: Folie a Deux" argues against its very existence.

Despite a terrific performance by Kate Winslet , "Lee" falls into the bio-pic trap of trying to encapsulate too much of a famous life into a two-hour chunk.

Run Time: 1:42
U.S. Release Date: 2024-09-27
MPAA Rating: "PG"
Genre: Animated/Adventure
Director: Chris Sanders
Cast: Lupita Nyong’o, Pedro Pascal, Kit Connor, Catherine O’Hara, Bill Nighy, Stephanie Hsu, Mark Hamill, Ving Rhames

Run Time: 1:48
U.S. Release Date: 2024-09-27
MPAA Rating: "R" (Violence, Profanity, Sexual Content)
Genre: Thriller/Comedy
Director: Jon Watts
Cast: George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Amy Ryan, Austin Abrams

A tepid crime thriller with a comedic undertone, the movie struggles with its unremarkable narrative and relies on the palpable chemistry between its stars.

The term "an interesting failure" was coined for movies like this, an incoherent (but often fascinating) excursion into the mind of writer/director Francis Ford Coppola

An effective and affecting coming-of-age story with a large dose of magical realism that is a credit not only to the writing and directing but to the performances of the actors.

Run Time: 2:21
U.S. Release Date: 2024-09-20
MPAA Rating: "R" (Violence, Gore, Nudity, Profanity, Sexual Content)
Genre: Horror/Comedy
Director: Coralie Fargeat
Cast: Demi Moore, Margaret Qualley, Dennis Quaid

Coralie Fargeat has delivered what the cinema too often lacks these days – a bold, uncompromising approach to a specific vision.

Never remotely scary but there are some solid laughs, a decent amount of over-the-top gore, and a grotesque scene featuring a zombie penis.

At its best, this can be enjoyable in an undemanding sort of way. At its worst, it is damn near unwatchable.

Run Time: 1:50
U.S. Release Date: 2024-09-13
MPAA Rating: "R" (Violence, Profanity)
Genre: Thriller/Horror
Director: James Watkins
Cast: James McAvoy, Mackenzie Davis, Scoot McNairy, Aisling Franciosi, Alix West Lefler, Dan Hough, Kris Hitchen

Although this version of "Speak No Evil" fails to leave as deep or lasting an impact as the Danish original, it warrants a recommendation for those who appreciate the genre.
