Cast: Danielle Deadwyler, Jalyn Hall, Whoopi Goldberg, Sean Patrick Thomas, John Douglas Thompson, Frankie Faison, Tosin Cole, Haley Bennett
Movie-going is not a civics assignment but "Till" is a sufficiently powerful motion picture that it offers more than a history lesson.

Genre: Drama
Director: Todd Field
Cast: Cate Blanchett, Noemie Merlant, Nina Hoss, Sophie Kauer, Julian Glover, Allan Corduner, Mark Strong

Genre: Romance/Comedy
Director: Ol Parker

Genre: Comedy/Drama
Director: Ruben Ostlund
Cast: Harris Dickinson, Charlbi Dean, Vicki Berlin, Dolly De Leon, Woody Harrelson, Zlatko Buric, Sunnyi Melles, Henrik Dorsin
Although there’s probably never a minute that goes by without some kind of barb being tossed, Ostlund reserves his sharpest daggers for illustrating how utterly out-of-touch the ultra-rich are.

Genre: Fantasy
Director: George Miller
Cast: Idris Elba, Tilda Swinton, Aamito Lagum, Burcu Golgedar, Pia Thunderbolt
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.
