New comedy/romance The Drama stars Zendeya, Robert Pattinson and Zoë Winters.
From writer/director Kristoffer Borgli, Pattinson and Zendaya play an engaged couple whose wedding week goes completely off the rails, thanks to an unexpected turn.
Thank goodness this is a comedy/romance, because this trailer had me worried. I look forward to seeing what Zendaya, Pattinson and Winters bring to this story.
Mamoudou Athie, Legacy Jones, Alana Haim, Michael Abbott Jr, Hailey Gates, Sydney Lemmon, YaYa Gosselin, Jordyn Curet, Peyton Jackson, Ricardo Wilkinson and Tierre Diaz also star.
Jon Bernthal, Tessa Thompson and Sunita Mani’s latest, His & Hers, is a six-part drama/mystery/thriller. One about a journalist (Thompson) investigating a murder in her hometown, while clashing with her suspicious detective husband (Bernthal).
My first thought is great cast. Based on this trailer, I’m not yet sure how good this story will be. Perhaps a second trailer, if it’s coming, will have me more excited.
Pablo Schreiber, Crystal Fox, Marin Ireland, Rebecca Rittenhouse, Mike Pniewski, Chris Bauer, Savanna Gann, Jon Briddell and Hasani Vibez Comer also star.
All that beautiful red in the trailer. That’s the main thing that drew me to Tron – Ares, the latest in the Tron franchise, a series of films about the internal digital world of computers.
Directed by Joachim Rønning, Tron – Ares, the third movie in the franchise, after Tron (1982) and Tron – Legacy (2010), centres on a highly sophisticated program that’s sent on a dangerous mission into the real world.
Starring Jared Leto, Evan Peters, Gillian Anderson, Greta Lee, and Jodie Turner-Smith, it’s no surprise then that out of everything else in the film, I enjoyed the special effects, along with the opening music and visuals, the most.

Granted, I still haven’t seen the original movie,but I can take a guess at why it achieved cult status. Nevertheless, I’d probably likely feel similarly about it as I do about Ares, in that I consider it ‘sort of okay,’ at best. Because, for me, dare I say, Rønning’s filmhas a general air of silliness, but not in a good way.
The silliness is in part because of the writing, but also the overly robotic speech/movement of some characters, which proved distracting. Additionally, as a non-enthusiast of 80s electronic music, I admit that the musical score soon became annoying, as did the visuals that showed us what/how the programs see, while they’re out in the world.
So yes, red visuals may have been reason enough for me to tune in, but it’s not enough for me to be enthusiastic about Tron – Ares post-viewing.
Of course, as always, watch it if you absolutely must.
Co-directed by Billie Eilish and Avatar director James Cameron, Billie Eilish – Hit Me Hard and Soft – The Tour (Live in 3D) is a documentary about Eilish’s Manchester shows, a documentary accompanied by a 3D concert film.
Great is the word for how this looks. And as a big fan of audiovisual magic, a.k.a. film, I’m in because of all the super creative talent involved.
I have a feeling that my level of appreciation for Eilish’s work will increase quite a bit after watching this. Are you a fan too?
Sterling K. Brown, Sarah Shahi and James Marsden are back for season 2 of Paradise, Hulu’s action/drama/thriller about the security service team tasked with protecting a past president.
I still haven’t got round to watching season 1 yet, but the high ratings for each episode on IMDb certainly have my attention.
Have you seen Paradise season 1?
