Director: RC Delos Reyes Writers: Erwin Blanco, Rona Lean Sales Stars: Kaye Abad, Paolo Contis, Patrick Garcia “Life won't reach you if you wait to fulfill your dreams,” Shane advises her two best friends.

Filmmaker Theda Hammel takes a swipe at contemporary Brooklyn hipsters and gives frequent collaborator John Early his best screen role. Building on the promise of her short film “My Trip to Spain,” which screened at Sundance in 2022, filmmaker Theda Hammel returns to the festival with her first feature film, “Stress Positions.” Accompanied by her favorite collaborator and lead actor John Early, she brings the same sharp, wry humor and incisive parody of her generation, only this time, Hammel acts on a larger canvas, directs a larger cast, and tackles more themes and topics. Among other things, the movie could be the first really funny movie about the pandemic.

Villains Inc. has three credited writers. There's director Jeremy Warner, Jason Gray and Matt Moen. The comedy is about three henchmen whose super-powered boss is murdered, and they must navigate life outside of serving an evil overlord. This is an ambitious elevator pitch for an independent production. Is this a case of too many cooks in the kitchen or are the filmmakers rising to the occasion?

But they accidentally kill their last boss, Winter General, just before he finally took out Captain Justice (Trey Warner).

If she fails, she dies. Director: Jeremy Warner Writers: Jason Gray, Matt Moen, Jeremy Warner Stars: Mallory Everton, Colin Mochrie, Jason Gray Meanwhile, Cain and Harol

Spy x Family Code: White elegantly combines his fun family spy adventures with a high-stakes cooking competition to prepare a flawed recipe. There are so many directions a SPY FAMILY x could go. The ongoing anime has a deeply versatile story structure that allows you to enjoy various missions so the series always feels fresh. Consequently, it's truly surprising to see Code: White function as a covert cooking anime film. Director: Kazuhiro Furuhashi Writers: Ichirô Ôkouchi, Tatsuya Endo Stars: Takuya Eguchi, Atsumi Tanezaki, Saori Hayami It's the kind of story audiences would expect to see in Food Wars! or the Toriko feature film, but not SPY x FAMILY. It's also an ambitious approach for the first SPY x FAMILY film that hedges its bets and is overly cautious about upsetting the status quo. Code: White is still rich in classic SPY x FAMILY elements, even if it amounts to an empty meal. Loid Forger has already thwarted international incidents, prevented assassinations, and mad

 Jesse Eisenberg and Riley Keough play sasquatches in David and Nathan Zellner's extremely strange new serious film. During the first few minutes of Sasquatch Sunset, from directors Nathan and David Zellner, it's hard to believe this movie exists. Four sasquatches maneuver through the mountains, eat plants they find, get excited, play with animals, and basically just do sasquatch stuff. Directors: David Zellner, Nathan Zellner Writer: David Zellner Stars: Jesse Eisenberg, Riley Keough, Christophe Zajac-Denek  Sasquatch Sunset almost acts as a test for the audience: dare you stick around to see if there's more to this than this quartet of furry monsters eating, shitting, and fighting in the woods? Is it just a joke repeated for 90 minutes or is there something deeper inside? Sasquatch Sunset follows the aforementioned group of sasquatches over the course of a year, as they wander and survive through mountains and forests, eating, defecating, and making bad decisions along th

Staying with this girl as they prepare to collect the ransom from her father, they eventually discover that this little girl has a strong appeal for her and they must come together if they hope to survive the night together. Team Radio Silence has already established itself as one of the most promising horror collectives of recent times. Their work on the V/H/S franchise, Ready Or Not, and the last two SCREAM films have proven that they are a capable and reliable directing team. So with this latest film, the question remained: would they keep their winning streak going with this one? Directors: Matt Bettinelli-Olpin, Tyler Gillett Writers: Guy Busick, Stephen Shields Stars: Kathryn Newton, Giancarlo Esposito, Dan Stevens Fortunately, this movie is one and a half wonders. This team has produced what I would say is their best film since Ready Or Not. The action

Sloan Stars: Tommie-Amber Pirie, Gregory Wilson, Maddy Martin I'm not a Seventh-day Adventist, but the story is revealing.

 Sports dramas can be unpredictable. When you portray real-life humans struggling to overcome racially motivated obstacles, the stakes are even higher. The Long Game successfully balances emotion, humor and performance to tell the true story of a mentor, a coach and five high school kids in the segregated world of golf in 1950s Del Rio, Texas. New to town, JB Peña (Hernández) aims to add “country club member” to his prestigious new role as superintendent of the school district.

As Hitler's army tightens its grip and borders close, eighty-five American missionaries are entrenched in Germany, devoutly serving their church amid rising tensions.

Nicolas Cage has carved out an eccentric niche for himself in independent cinema over the last decade, taking on roles ranging from psychedelic metal revenge tales to quirky meta-comedies portraying none other than himself.  Once ridiculed for his apparent lack of discernment in selecting roles, recent reflections on his eclectic 2010s portfolio have changed perceptions. Many today consider his fearless commitment to smaller projects commendable. With Cage, even the most modest premises and budgets can be transformed into cinematic gems, provided he is given enough screen time to unleash his trademark intensity. Director: Benjamin Brewer Writer: Michael Nilon Stars: Nicolas Cage, Jaeden Martell, Maxwell Jenkins However, while there is some truth to this characterization, it overlooks an equally significant aspect of Cage's involvement in independent genre films. Beyond his penchant for on-screen theatrics, Cage demonstrates his willingness to deliver restrained performances when th

 Charlotte, a 12-year-old girl hiding a secret, faces a terrifying reality when her once adorable pet spider undergoes a monstrous transformation into a carnivorous giant. In “Sting,” the latest installment of the “Giant Spider vs. Humans,” audiences are drawn to the promise of classic creature thrills. However, despite its premise, “Sting” fails to convey the chilling emotion one would expect from such a film. Instead of a gripping monster movie, it delves into the realm of mundane family drama. While the film draws inspiration from iconic creature features like “Alien” and “Jaws,” it fails to evoke the same level of tension and fear, relying more on the concept of horror than its execution. Director: Kiah Roache-Turner Writer: Kiah Roache-Turner Stars: Tony J Black, Alyla Browne, Alcira Carpio The story revolves around Charlotte, played by Alyla Browne, who lives her life with her new stepfather Ethan, played by Ryan Corr, in a poorly managed apartment building.

 The initial reactions to Imtiaz Ali's latest Netflix venture 'Chamkila' starring Diljit Dosanjh and Parineeti Chopra are out, and it seems like the audience is completely impressed with this musical biopic.

 In "Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead," the titular mother travels to Australia for a well-deserved break, leaving her five children in the care of a notoriously awful babysitter. When said nanny dies prematurely, the children find themselves in a difficult situation: not only are they free from supervision, but they are also left without the funds that her mother left behind. She points to her older sister, Sue Ellen (played by Christina Applegate), who steps up to the plate to support her siblings. Watching Sue Ellen navigate the professional world is reminiscent of the career-centric novels of yesteryear, where brave young people stumbled upon fortunate opportunities and emerged victorious.  Director: Wade Allain-Marcus Writers: Chuck Hayward, Neil Landau, Tara Ison Stars: Jermaine Fowler, June Squibb, Iantha Richardson However, “Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead” gives this classic trope a modern twist, as Sue Ellen grapples with adult challenges li

Smoove, Yvette Nicole Brown, Marsai Martin Do you remember the time J.J.'s father he confronted neighborhood troublemakers who were trying to recruit him into their gang. Remember when matriarch Florida turned down a lucrative endorsement deal after discovering the product was laced with alcohol? “Good Times,” the groundbreaking television series that aired for six seasons in the 1970s, was packed with poignant life lessons. Despite facing weekly trials and temptations, the family generally chose the morally sound path, a distinction not shared by the creators and actors and that tarnish

 The Edinburgh Festival is a captivating but unpredictable melting pot of theatrical experiences. It's a place where you can go from being deeply moved by one performance to laughing uncontrollably at the next. Amid the diverse range of shows, some are undeniably brilliant, while others fall short of expectations.  However, when a production lands a transfer to the prestigious West End, followed by a Netflix adaptation, it becomes clear that it occupies a special place in the realm of entertainment. “Baby Reindeer” by Richard Gadd is one of those extraordinary creations.
