From our review,

Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba the movie: Mugen Train is a brilliant embodiment of the show’s strengths and appeal, filled with moments of pulsating action, intoxicating emotional gravity, and fantastic character-affirming moments of ease and humor. It’s not the best place for newbies to jump on board Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Fandom, but nonetheless, proves it to be a thoroughly enjoyable thrill ride that feels both consistent and important to see.

Luca

Pixar’s fantasy coming-of-age adventure Luca follows Luca Paguro (room‘s Jacob Tremblay) and his friend Alberto Scorfano (Shazam‘s Jack Dylan Grazer), two young sea monsters who take the form of two human children as they explore the idyllic town of Portorosso on the Italian Riviera. From our review,

With Luca, the magic lies in the tiny details that make up the human world. The underwater world is certainly beautiful, but the coastal town of Portorosso really shines. From the eyes of Luca and Alberto, it makes sense that the human environment is so lovingly complemented. All of the little details – the laundry hanging between the streets, the uneven cobblestones, the posters on the walls – create a beautiful rendering of the real world. It’s not photorealistic, but it makes the city a little warmer, a little brighter, and a little more golden, almost like a rosy memory. The stylization strengthens this blissful summer shared by three friends.

fatherhood

in the fatherhood Kevin Hart plays Matt, a new widower who has to raise his new baby daughter alone as a single parent. As a professional comedian, seeing Hart in a more serious and emotionally charged role is seldom, if ever, unprecedented for audiences, but what the trailer looks like is fatherhood develops into a heartwarming and emotional story with a few classic gags.

The keystone of Legendary Entertainment’s Monster Verse reinterpretation of Toho’s most famous kaiju is finally here in Adam Wingards Godzilla vs. Kong. Who will win in a battle between an ancient, giant radiation-emitting lizard and a great old monkey with a heart of gold and a palm full of sign language? The answer is obvious: we do it! From our review,

Godzilla vs. Kong is a 113-minute argument in favor of films that are projected onto big screens in front of crowds. It’s a smooth headed time. Depending on local advances and restrictions in pandemic recovery, it will either greet moviegoers triumphantly back in theaters with a daunting spectacle, or it will hurt the wait even more as they watch it on HBO Max instead. I watched it on my 55-inch TV at home, absolutely angry that I couldn’t see it in a theater, or at least project it onto the side of my apartment building. But I couldn’t stay angry for long because I was too busy cheering on the spectacle in front of me.

Pierce Brosnan (Golden Eye) plays Richard Pace, a notorious steward and criminal who is recruited into an international gang of vigilante thieves who call themselves the Misfits, in the heist, The Misfits, directed by Renny Harlin. The group’s latest attack is their most daring: a hiding place with millions of gold bars locked under one of the toughest and most remote prisons in the world. With a cast made up of stars like Nick Cannon (Wild ‘n Out), Tim Roth (pulp Fiction), Rami Jaber and Jamie Chung (Lovecraft land) Brosnan is the obvious star that is all of this movie’s appeal. If you’ve ever wondered what it would be like to be a former James Bond one Ocean’s Eleven-Esque heist movie you should consider giving The outsider a shot.
