MPAA Rating: "R" (Profanity, Disturbing Images, Sexual Content)
Genre: Comedy/Fantasy
Director: Marielle Heller
Cast: Amy Adams, Scoot McNairy, Arleigh and Emmett Snowden, ...
Although "Nightbitch" self-proclaims itself to be a comedy, there are a few too many times when viewers laugh at the movie rather than with it.

MPAA Rating: "R" (Violence)

MPAA Rating: "PG"
Genre: Musical/Fantasy
Director: Jon M. Chu
Cast: Cynthia Erivo, Ariana Grande-Butera, Jonathan Bailey, Michelle Yeoh, Jeff Goldblum, Ethan Slater, Marissa Bode, Peter Dinklage
This adaptation of the stage musical gives us eye-popping settings, big-screen expansions of Broadway numbers, and far too much stretching of an already-thin narrative.
U.S. Release Date: 2024-11-01
MPAA Rating: "PG-13" (War Violence, Profanity)
Genre: Drama
Director: Steve McQueen
Cast: Elliott Heffernan, Saoirse Ronan, Harris Dickinson, Benjamin Clementine, Kathy Burke, Paul Weller, Stephen Graham
The kind of movie one can watch and appreciate on both an emotional and intellectual level but without having to do much heavy lifting.
U.S. Release Date: 2024-11-15
MPAA Rating: "PG-13" (Violence, Profanity)
Genre: Action/Adventure
Director: Jake Kasdan
Cast: Dwayne Johnson, Chris Evans, Lucy Liu, J.K. Simmons, Kiernan Shipka, Bonnie Hunt, Kristofer Hivju, Wesley Kimmel
Does not do much right - it is too violent and profane for younger kids and too juvenile for adults.
U.S. Release Date: 2024-11-01
MPAA Rating: "R" (Profanity)
Genre: Drama/Comedy
Director: Jesse Eisenberg
Cast: Kieran Culkin, Jesse Eisenberg, Jennifer Grey, Will Sharpe, Daniel Oreskes, Liza Sadovy, Kurt Egyiawan
Will resonate most strongly with movie-goers who do not mind films in which conflict is internalized and where human interaction – simple, vivid, and unforced – takes center stage.
U.S. Release Date: 2024-10-18
MPAA Rating: "R" (Sexual Content, Nudity, Profanity, Drugs)
Genre: Drama/Comedy
Director: Sean Baker
Cast: Mikey Madison, Mark Eydelshteyn, Yura Borisov, Karren Karagulian, Vache Tovmasyan
Stands out as an airy experience full of surprises (big and small), all anchored by the tremendous performance by lead actress Mikey Madison.
U.S. Release Date: 2024-11-08
MPAA Rating: "R" (Violence, Disturbing Images, Sexual Content)
Genre: Horror/Thriller
Director: Scott Beck, Bryan Woods
Cast: Hugh Grant, Sophie Thatcher, Chloe East
Does what good psychological horror does best: leaves the viewer unsettled and perhaps a little shaken even after the end credits roll and the lights turn back on.
U.S. Release Date: 2024-11-01
MPAA Rating: "R" (Violence, Profanity)
Genre: Thriller
Director: Hans Petter Moland
Cast: Liam Neeson, Ron Perlman, Frankie Shaw, Daniel Diemer, Yolanda Ross, Javier Molina
Possibly too generic for those with an affinity for movies about larger-than-life figures diminished by infirmity and too downbeat for those who have enjoyed the action/thriller outings of Liam Neeson.
