Cast: Bryce Dallas Howard, Sam Rockwell, Catherine O’Hara, Bryan Cranston, Henry Cavill, Samuel L. Jackson, John Cena
All the pleasure hinted at by the trailer is illusory. This is the month when Hollywood jettisons its refuse and this particular sampling belongs buried deep in a landfill.
U.S. Release Date: 2024-01-19
MPAA Rating: "R" (Violence, Profanity)
Genre: Science Fiction/Thriller
Director: Gabriela Cowperthwaite
Cast: Chris Messina, John Gallagher Jr., Masha Mashkova, Costa Ronin, Ariana DeBose, Pilou Asbaek
As a sci-fi thriller, it does not disappoint but neither does it go above or beyond what one might reasonably expect based on the trailer.
U.S. Release Date: 2024-01-12
MPAA Rating: "PG-13" (Profanity, Sexual Content)
Genre: Musical/Comedy
Director: Samantha Jayne, Arturo Perez Jr.
Cast: Angourie Rice, Tim Meadows, Tina Fey, Christopher Briney, Bebe Wood, Avantika, Jaquel Spivey, Auli’I Cravalho, Renee Rapp, Jon Hamm
The haphazard fashion in which the movie has been assembled argues that this should have been left on the stage where a live production can cover all manner of missteps.
U.S. Release Date: 2024-01-12
MPAA Rating: "R" (Violence, Profanity)
Genre: Action/Thriller
Director: David Ayer
Cast: Jason Statham, Emmy Raver-Lampman, Josh Hutcherson, Jeremy Irons, David Witts, Phylicia Rashad, Jemma Redgrave, Minnie Driver
A David Ayer/Jason Statham collaboration in 2024 is something to be avoided if any sort of investment of time or money is involved.
U.S. Release Date: 2024-01-05
MPAA Rating: "PG-13" (Disturbing Images, Violence)
Genre: Horror
Director: Bryce McGuire
Cast: Wyatt Russell, Kerry Condon, Amelie Hoeferle, Gavin Warren
The movie is at its best when it is content with being atmospheric and spooky. As soon is it starts explaining things, the story goes down the drain.
