Genre: Horror

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.
U.S. Release Date: 2024-07-03
MPAA Rating: "R" (Violence, Profanity)
Genre: Action/Comedy
Director: Mark Molloy
Cast: Eddie Murphy, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Taylour Paige, Judge Reinhold, John Ashton, Paul Reiser, Kevin Bacon, Mark Pellegrino
Although better than it has a right to be and represents a worthy way to dispose of a couple of hours lying on the couch at home, this is hardly a triumphant return for Axel.

MPAA Rating: "R" (Violence, Gore, Profanity)
Genre: Horror
Director: Oz Perkins
Cast: Maika Monroe, Nicolas Cage, Blair Underwood, Alicia Witt, Michelle Choi-Lee
Does a great job setting up a sense of deep unease but that quickly evaporates when it becomes apparent the movie isn’t going anywhere worthwhile.
U.S. Release Date: 2024-07-12
MPAA Rating: "PG-13" (Profanity)
Genre: Comedy
Director: Greg Berlanti
Cast: Scarlett Johansson, Channing Tatum, Woody Harrelson, Ray Romano, Jim Rash, Anna Garcia
Although not a complete failure to launch (thanks primarily to the charisma and energy of Johansson), neither does it have the thrust to make it into orbit.
U.S. Release Date: 2024-07-03
MPAA Rating: "PG"
Genre: Animation
Director: Chris Renaud, Patrick Delage
Cast: Steve Carrell, Joey King, Stephen Colbert, Steve Coogan, Chris Renaud, Miranda Cosgrove, Madison Polan, Dana Gaier, Sofia Vergara, Will Ferrell, Pierre Coffin, Kristen Wiig, Chloe Fineman
More of a big screen cartoon than a legitimate animated feature, this sixth outing for Gru and his Minion cohorts shows how overextended the franchise has become.
U.S. Release Date: 2024-07-05
MPAA Rating: "R" (Violence, Gore, Profanity, Sexual Content, Nudity, Drugs)
Genre: Horror/Thriller
Director: Ti West
Cast: Mia Goth, Halsey, Lily Collins, Moses Sumney, Bobby Cannavale, Michelle Monaghan, Giancarlo Esposito, Kevin Bacon, Elizabeth Debicki, Simon Prast
"Maxxxine" has the ideas. It has the style. It has Mia Goth. But somewhere along the way, writer/director Ti West lost the story.
