Sollers Point centres around Keith, a small-time drug dealer under house arrest in a community scarred by unemployment, neglect and deeply entrenched segregation. Keith must push back against his surrounding limitations to try and find a way out of his own internal prison.

Directed by Matthew Porterfield; McCaul Lombardi, Jim Belushi, Zazie Beetz, Tom Guiry and Imani Hakim star…

After watching this trailer, I’m already desperate for Keith to succeed and not become a number in the recidivism statistic. With a stable support system like he seems to have, my fingers are firmly crossed.

Assuming that Keith does succeed, what will happen with the people he’s indebted to, the ones who made sure he made it out of prison alive? I will watch for answers and because this is a trailer – and I’m quite sure, a leading role well done.

Sollers Point Release Dates: May 18th, 2018 (US)…

There’s quite a lot going on in this trailer yet no major stand out moments that have me super excited, even though the plot is unique. I remain hopeful though – because of Foster, Goldblum and serious badass Boutella.

Based on David Grann’s 2008 article, True Crimes – A Postmodern Murder Mystery, director Alexandros Avranas’s Dark Crimes is a thriller about the murder investigation of a slain business man.

Starring Jim Carrey, Charlotte Gainsbourg and Marton Csokas, said investigation leads to an author’s book which happens to feature an eerily similar crime…

I badly want this to be a good and worthy crime / thriller; particularly since the last film in this genre that I was excited about (Hangman 2017) didn’t turn out as well as hoped

With memories of how much I enjoyed Carrey in The Truman Show (1998) still intact, I’m remaining  hopeful.

Kati Outinen, Vlad Ivanov, Agata Kulesza and Anna Polony also star.

Dark Crimes Release Dates: May 11th, 2018 (US)…

Directed by Silas Howard, A Kid Like Jake stars Claire Danes, Jim parsons, Octavia Spencer and Priyana Chopra.

Parsons and Danes play a Brooklyn based couple whose four-year-old son’s preschool director points out that his gender-nonconforming play may be more than just a phase…

The subject matter is so very interesting and is a great reminder of why I love movies and the often useful stories they tell.

Besides the great cast and promising story, I’m really looking forward to the beautiful images of a well lit New York City, a place I always miss.

In Darkness is a London-set thriller about a blind musician who finds herself down a dark path into London’s gritty criminal underworld. A change that happens after she hears a murder committed in the apartment upstairs.

I think the music / sound effects did a little too much to make this movie seem more exciting. Nevertheless, I look forward to what is hopefully a great thriller. I excited to seeing an example of just how resourceful a blind person can be.
