MPAA Rating: "PG-13" (Intense Action, Profanity)
Genre: Action/Adventure
Director: Lee Isaac Chung
Cast: Daisy Edgar-Jones, Glen Powell, Anthony Ramos, Maura Tierney, David Corenswet

By placing itself in the shadow of "Twister" and relying so much on story beats of the original, it feels like the most unnecessary of films.

"Top Gun" is an ‘80s testosterone fix – a celebration of machismo and a recruiting film for the U.S. Navy.

Uses reliable science fiction/time travel/alien invasion tropes in ways that could be interesting but ultimately turn out to be regurgitations of stories we’ve seen before.

Too little use of a rich palette of music and too much peddling of important themes like diversity and the evils of cultural appropriation.

MPAA Rating: "NR" (Sexual Content, Nudity, Adult Themes)
Genre: Drama
Director: AJ Jankel
Cast: Anna Paquin, Holliday Grainger, Emun Elliott, Gregor Selkirk, Lauren Lyle, Kate Dickie

The framing of characters is black-and-white and the far-too-pat ending offers an unearned resolution.

MPAA Rating: "R" (Profanity, Sexual Content)
Genre: Comedy
Director: Jeff Tomsic
Cast: Ed Helms, Jon Hamm, Jake Johnson, Hannibal Buress, Isla Fisher, Jeremy Renner, Rashida Jones, Leslie Bibb

Falls prey to two common problems: (1) predictable, uninspired humor, and (2) inept attempts to inject drama into the proceedings during the last act.

MPAA Rating: "R" (Profanity, Sexual Content, Drugs)
Genre: Comedy
Director: Seth MacFarlane
Cast: Mark Wahlberg, Seth MacFarlane, Amanda Seyfried, Jessica Barth, Giovanni Ribisi

The film fumbles its lame narrative and, although some of MacFarlane's jokes are hilarious, they're just blips on the radar.
