Genre: Horror
Director: David Koepp
Cast: Kevin Bacon, Amanda Seyfried, Avery Essex
In the realm of throwaway horror flicks, there’s a place for "You Should Have Left" but it doesn’t deliver enough to warrant being labeled as more.

Cast: Delroy Lindo, Clarke Peters, Norm Lewis, Isiah Whitlock Jr., Jonathan Majors, Chadwick Boseman, Mélanie Thierry, Paul Walter Hauser, Jasper Paakkonen, Johnny Nguyen, Jean Reno, Le Y Lan

Genre: Fantasy/Adventure

Genre: Comedy/Drama
Director: Judd Apatow
Cast: Pete Davidson, Marisa Tomei, Bill Burr, Bel Powley, Maude Apatow, Ricky Velez, Lou Wilson, Moises Arias
The result is familiar Apatow: simultaneously funny and touching with elements of pathos to go along with the raunchiness.

Genre: Thriller
Director: Jonathan Milott, Cary Murnion

U.S. Release Date: 2020-05-29
MPAA Rating: "PG-13" (Profanity)
Genre: Science Fiction
Director: Andrew Patterson
Cast: Sierra McCormick, Jake Horowitz
Works not because of anything surprising in the story but because the filmmakers have paid such attention to the way in which it is crafted that it unfolds effortlessly and with great panache.

Genre: Drama
Director: Nisha Ganatra
Cast: Dakota Johnson, Tracee Ellis Ross, Kelvin Harrison Jr., Bill Pullman, Ice Cube, Zoe Chao, June Diane Raphael, Eddie Izzard
Plays well on the small screen because the essence of the film – an exploration of characters and their relationships – remains unchanged.
U.S. Release Date: 2020-05-22
MPAA Rating: "R" (Profanity, Sexual Content, Violence)
Genre: Action/Comedy
Director: Michael Showalter
Cast: Kumail Nanjiani, Issa Rae
More successful when focusing on the unlikely romance between its stars than the silly and underwhelming murder mystery.

MPAA Rating: "R" (Violence, Profanity)
Genre: Thriller
Director: Vaughn Stein
Cast: Lily Collins, Simon Pegg, Connie Nielsen, Chace Crawford, Patrick Warburton, Marque Richardson, Michael Beach
Despite a few effective “gotcha!” moments and Pegg’s performance, the movie is too artificial and undercooked to work.

Genre: Animated
Director: Tony Cervone
Cast: Will Forte, Mark Wahlberg, Jason Isaacs, Gina Rodriguez, Zac Efron, Amanda Seyfried, Kiersey Clemons, Ken Jeong, Tracy Morgan, Frank Welker, Billy West & Don Messick
Tries to do a little too much and runs too long but it’s an affable mix of nostalgia and family-friendly animated action/adventure.
