Genre: Drama/Comedy

U.S. Release Date: 2024-11-08
MPAA Rating: "R" (Violence, Disturbing Images, Sexual Content)
Genre: Horror/Thriller
Director: Scott Beck, Bryan Woods

Does what good psychological horror does best: leaves the viewer unsettled and perhaps a little shaken even after the end credits roll and the lights turn back on.

U.S. Home Release Date: 2024-11-07
MPAA Rating: "NR"
Genre: Thriller
Director: Alfred Hitchcock
Cast: Joseph Cotten, Teresa Wright, Henry Travers, Patricia Collinge, Hume Cronyn, Macdonald Carey, Wallace Ford

Although a bona fide classic, the story so implausible that it holds together only because of the directorial skill of Hitchcock and the top-notch work of actors Joseph Cotten and Teresa Wright.

Run Time: 1:52
U.S. Release Date: 2024-11-01
MPAA Rating: "R" (Violence, Profanity)
Genre: Thriller
Director: Hans Petter Moland
Cast: Liam Neeson, Ron Perlman, Frankie Shaw, Daniel Diemer, Yolanda Ross, Javier Molina

Possibly too generic for those with an affinity for movies about larger-than-life figures diminished by infirmity and too downbeat for those who have enjoyed the action/thriller outings of Liam Neeson.

"Here" wants to depict the everyday life of an historically anonymous person and, stripping away the distractions created by the failed artificial structure, it mostly accomplishes that goal.

With the exception of a few jump scares, this is not especially scary, and the book-to-movie condensations cause the occasionally incoherent plot to feel rushed.

Run Time: 2:00
U.S. Release Date: 2024-10-25
MPAA Rating: "PG"
Genre: Drama
Director: Edward Berger
Cast: Ralph Fiennes, Stanley Tucci, John Lithgow, Sergio Castellitto, Isabella Rossellini, Lucian Msamati, Carlos Diaz

The acting elevates the material. All the A-list actors bring their A-games.

Run Time: 1:49
U.S. Release Date: 2024-10-25
MPAA Rating: "PG-13" (Violence, Profanity)
Genre: Action
Director: Kelly Marcel
Cast: Tom Hardy, Juno Temple, Alanna Ubach, Rhys Ifans, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Andy Serkis

The potential inherent in the Venom symbiont has been wasted and squandered over the course of three movies and this final installment is the worst offender of all.

A story that starts with promise and seems to be going somewhere devolves into a formulaic disappointment.

Run Time: 1:35
U.S. Release Date: 2024-10-18
MPAA Rating: "R" (Violence, Profanity)
Genre: Thriller
Director: Anna Kendrick
Cast: Anna Kendrick, Daniel Zovatto, Nicolette Robinson, Tony Hale, Kathryn Gallagher, Pete Holmes, Autumn Best

The screenplay does a good job with the "Dating Games" scenes and the tense, creepy sequence that follows but it founders in establishing a wider canvas.
