I Know What You Did Last Summer
Starring: Madelyn Cline, Freddie Prinze Jr., Jennifer Love Hewitt ; Directed by: Jennifer Kaytin Robinson
Synopsis:
When five friends inadvertently cause a deadly car accident, they cover up their involvement and make a pact to keep it a secret rather than face the consequences. A year later, their past comes back to haunt them and they’re forced to confront a horrifying truth: someone knows what they did last summer… and is hell-bent on revenge. As one by one the friends are stalked by a killer, they discover this has happened before, and they turn to two survivors of the legendary Southport Massacre of 1997 for help.
Critics:
“The higher body count and a new cast of genuinely likable characters help introduce this legacy sequel to new audiences, but it’s one that’s best suited and tailor-made for the die-hard IKWYDLS fan.”
– Meagan Navarro, Bloody Disgusting
“The movie does not earn the right for such an insincere have-your-I-Heart-the-’90s-cake-and-eat-it-too gesture. It barely earns the right to a theatrical release. This is the kind of I.P. cash-in that earns franchise resuscitations a bad name.”
– David Fear, Rolling Stone

Smurfs
Starring: John Goodman, Rihanna ; Directed by: Chris Miller
Synopsis:
When Papa Smurf (John Goodman) is mysteriously taken by evil wizards, Razamel and Gargamel, Smurfette (Rihanna) leads the Smurfs on a mission into the real world to save him. With the help of new friends, the Smurfs must discover what defines their destiny to save the universe.
Critics:
“Caught between its cynical approaches to bygone zeitgeists, Smurfs can’t decide how it wants to sell out.”
“You can almost feel IP-rights pressures animating the entire enterprise. See, there are other Smurf names out there. What about Corporate Mandate Smurf?”
– Jake Coyle, Associated Press
“It’s refreshing to see children’s animation makers use surrealism, instead of winking pop-culture references, to charm adults.”

Eddington
Starring: Joaquin Phoenix, Pedro Pascal; Directed by: Ari Aster
Synopsis:
In May of 2020, a standoff between a small-town sheriff (Joaquin Phoenix) and mayor (Pedro Pascal) sparks a powder keg as neighbor is pitted against neighbor in Eddington, New Mexico.
Critics:
The movie is nasty and cynical — and also eerily accurate in its rendering of the digital reality of pandemic life.
Ari Aster’s “Eddington” is such a superb social satire about contemporary America that I want to bury it in the desert for 20 years. More distance will make it easier to laugh.

Finally Dawn
Starring: Lily James, Willem Dafoe, Joe Keery ; Directed by: Saverio Costanzo
Synopsis:
A young Roman woman during the 1950s is on the verge of becoming engaged to a man. She goes to Cinecittà to do an audition as an extra and is thrust into this almost infinite night during which she discovers herself.
Critics:
“Saverio Costanzo seems to throw more and more ideas at the page with the growing desperation of adding new toppings to mask a bad pizza.”
– Steph Green, IndieWire
“The performers in “Finally Dawn” are its weakest feature: big and broad, prone to pantomime, clashing with whatever it is their colleagues are doing.”
