They keep making new movies, and some of them are even worth watching. Here’s what’s at the top of the slate for August 2025:
The Naked Gun: This is a silly comedy about Los Angeles’ Police Squad, the new version. You might have seen the Police Squad! TV show from 1982, or the Naked Gun movies from 1988, 1991, or 1994. Liam Neeson takes over Leading Man Duties from Leslie Nielsen.
The Naked Gun will fulfill its destiny in movie theaters on August 1.

Eddington: Writer-director Ari Aster takes us back to 2020 New Mexico, and I think it’s safe to say that tempers are going to flare.
Movie theaters will welcome Eddington on July 18.

28 Years Later: It’s been fewer than 28 years since 28 Days Later came out in 2002, but cinematic time isn’t always linear. Director Danny Boyle and screenwriter Alex Garland return to the world of the Rage virus.
It will be 28 Years Later in movie theaters on June 20.

They keep making new movies, and some of them are even worth watching. Here’s what’s at the top of the slate for May 2025:
Friendship: Tim Robinson and Paul Rudd play a couple of guys trying to be buds? According to the trailer, it’s both horrifying and hilarious.
I think you should leave your house to go to the movie theater to see Friendship on May 7.

Mickey 17: Robert Pattinson plays Mickey, who keeps dying, but that’s okay, because they also keep making clones of him. It’s the latest from Bong Joon-ho!
March 7 will be Mickey 17 Day in movie theaters.

Heart Eyes: A serial killer stabs couples on Valentine’s Day, but the most intriguing attraction to me is that one of the writers is Christopher “Happy Death Day” Landon.”
