“Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse”
The type of film that proves animation isn’t just for kids, and it’s certainly not a throwaway medium that deserves to be dismissed. It’s an action-packed, visually dazzling, frentic, and outrageously fun piece of cinema.
“Causeway”

“Bullet Train”

“Superintelligence”
I wish Melissa McCarthy would wake up and make better choices that showcase her talent.
