Genre: Drama
Rating: R
Metacritic score: lxx

Tim Roth is the embodiment of indifference in this mellow drama about a wealthy British man vacationing in Acapulco with his siblings when they're suddenly called back for a family tragedy. Only he doesn't go back, pretending he forgot his passport back at the hotel. Then he simply stays in Mexico while anybody else deals with all the responsibility!

Cruises aren't a practiced thought right at present, simply you lot tin can still become the feelings of big-boat adventures — large terraces overlooking the water, grand ballrooms, floating reverie, MURDER — with Expiry on the Nile, Kenneth Branaugh'south adaptation of Agatha Christie's famous 1937 novel. The mystery film is a whodunnit with a who's who cast, which includes Gal Gadot, Annette Bening, Armie Hammer, and Branaugh (who does double duty as managing director). Information technology's an imperfect film, no doubt, but it has an old-fashioned sensibility to it that makes information technology a great escape from life's doldrums. -Tim Surette [ Trailer ]

Genre: Drama, Mystery, Thriller

This is the first film from director Adrian Lyne (Fatal Attraction), one of the cardinal figures of the erotic thriller subgenre, in 20 years. His last i was 2002'south Unfaithful, which came out right at the end of the erotic thriller'southward menses of commercial viability. Now that streaming is creating a demand for erotic thrillers again, Lyne is back like he never went away. Deep Water stars Ana de Armas and Gone Girl mode Ben Affleck, who started a relationship when the movie was shooting in 2019 and have since cleaved upwardly, as a married couple who play twisted psychosexual listen games with each other, and and then people around them showtime turning up dead. Uh oh! Deep Water was supposed to get a theatrical release in 2020, but at present it's going directly to Hulu with less fanfare than information technology deserves — though straight-to-streaming may cease up being the best affair for it. It's a trashy good time. -Liam Mathews [ Trailer | Review ]

It'south set almost entirely in the cemetery, and centers on a French adult female (Nina Bergman) accused of existence a Nazi sympathizer who might know more than about the gold than anyone else.

Rating: R
Metacritic score:67

It'southward not really a spoiler to say that this movie starts out equally a romantic comedy and then turns into a horror motion-picture show a half-hour in, because that's the whole thing of it. I just won't tell you lot what happens, other than to say Sebastian Stan gets his Patrick Bateman on.

20th Century Studios

Genre: Drama, Mystery, Thriller, Horror
Rating: R
Metacritic score: 54

In this twenty-four hour period and age of pandemic paranoia where trust in strangers is at an best depression, nosotros probably don't need a flick about being stuck in a room with four people, one of whom is a suspected kidnapper, to get our suspicions elevated. But here nosotros are with No Exit, a Hulu-exclusive movie well-nigh a troubled young woman who finds herself waiting out a snowstorm with four strangers. That's already an inconvenience, just things become really bad when she discovers a kidnapped child in one of their cars. Early reviews are mixed, but this feels like the kind of movie made for audiences looking for a thrill rather than for movie critics. -Tim Surette [ Trailer ]

Titane (2021)

Agathe Rousselle, Titane — Agathe Rousselle, *Titane*
Hulu

Manager: Julia Ducournau
Stars: Agathe Rousselle, Vincent Lindon, a dope Cadillac
Genre: Body horror, Drama
Rating: R
Metacritic score: 75

Given its everything, I take no idea how Titane became the winner of the 2021 Palme d'Or, the top prize at the Cannes International Film Festival. Simply I'm glad it did because Titane is absolutely astonishing in the most primal sense of the word. The French-Belgian film defies genre only spends lots of time in almost all of them — horror, scientific discipline-fiction, drama, comedy — as it follows a model with a titanium plate in her head that she got after a auto crash when she was immature at car shows. From in that location, Titane is a riveting and roughshod ride as shocking every bit it is unpredictable (you'll never remember of airport bathroom sinks the aforementioned way again). And just when you lot think information technology's gone entirely off the runway, information technology becomes an emotional and idea-provoking film about character relationships. Dearest it or hate it, no reaction would surprise me from this truly original and daring picture show. -Tim Surette [ Trailer ]

The King'due south Man (2021)

Managing director: Matthew Vaughn
Stars: Ralph Fiennes, Gemma Arterton, Rhys Ifans, Djimon Hounsou
Genre: Action-Risk
Rating: R
Metacritic score: 44

After a promising offset, The Kingsman films have gotten worse and worse, meaning that The King's Man, the third and most recent motion picture in the franchise, is the worst. Yet audiences nonetheless gobble them up because the movies are only hither to keep you lot occupied for a few hours, and absolutely zero more. This prequel gussies up the franchise by setting it around WWI equally the Kingsman organization is formed later on the death of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, and it delivers a decent brain vacation of action and mediocre screenwriting. At the very least, watch to see Charles Dance in a comical mustache. -Tim Surette [ Trailer ]

You lot may accept never seen a Welsh-language horror movie before, only Hulu can brand your start one a good one. The Banquet, which fabricated a splash on the pic festival circuit, is an ecologically minded folk horror slow-burner that takes its sweet fourth dimension getting going, just is well worth it when it gets there.

They've forgotten their connection to the state, and Cadi is going to remind them, in very gruesome and disturbing fashion. -Liam Mathews [ Trailer ]

It might be a little too shortly to relive early quarantine days, but it'due south dissimilar when you exercise it through the eyes of one of our greatest (and somehow still underrated) pop stars — in this case, Charli XCX. Told largely through cocky-taped footage, Lone Together follows the inception, creation, and release of one of the more unique projects to come up out of the pandemic: Charli's about-perfect 2020 anthology How I'grand Feeling Now. Information technology'southward a fascinating look at a truly collaborative process between an artist and her fans, showing how songs were written with their help over Instagram Live, and too presents a raw account of Charli's struggles with feet. This is definitely a documentary primarily for the diehard fans, but fifty-fifty a casual listener can enjoy bearing witness to such a cool creative process. -Allison Picurro [ Trailer ]

Someone somewhere is however eating popcorn they bought while watching Nightmare Alley in the theaters on its mid-Dec premiere night, and nonetheless the flick is already on Hulu.

Ed Helms stars as a human who wants a babe, and Patti "I Retrieve Yous Should Get out with Tim Robinson" Harrison plays the woman he's called to be his surrogate, and it'south one of those movies where nothing actually happens, merely besides everything happens. Helms and Harrison are great as two people who don't really know what to do with or how to chronicle to each other, but who have been thrown together for the better role of a year due to their circumstances. Information technology made me laugh, it made me weep, and I hope information technology does the same for you. -Allison Picurro[Trailer]

Every documentary that has used some variation of the selling indicate "a story and so crazy it has to be truthful" needs to step aside. The truth in Three Identical Strangers is then bizarre and goes in so many directions you'd never expect that you'll want to put a pillow on the floor for your jaw. The motion-picture show follows the story of identical triplets — three gregarious New York boys — separated at birth who come across in their teenage years and get media sensations, but gets actually insane when information technology dives into the circumstances of why they were separated. If I told y'all whatsoever more, I'd ruin it for you. -Tim Surette[Trailer]

I tend to stay away from movies with trailers that proclaim "from the visionary mind of [insert writer/director here]," because it'southward like, get over yourself, dude, but Brandon "son of David" Cronenberg's latest film is a doozy. The sci-fi moving-picture show follows an assassin (Andrea Riseborough) who executes hits past taking control of other people's bodies using implanted chip tech. Seems piece of cake, right? It is, until she has trouble with her latest target (the e'er dying in a movie or prove Sean Bean) when the trunk (Christopher Abbott) she takes over decides he'southward not set up to surrender total control. Like his dad, Brandon isn't afraid to go cuckoo bananers with practical effects and hallucinatory montages. This is an fine art business firm freak-out film that deserves cult condition. -Tim Surette[Trailer]

But what he finds is a unique connectedness to its residents. Grab a hanky, this ane will make your middle explode. -Tim Surette[Trailer]
