They keep making new movies, and some of them are even worth watching. Here’s what’s at the top of the slate for March 2025:
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.

They keep making new movies, and some of them are even worth watching. Here’s what’s at the top of the slate for February 2025:
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.”

They keep making new movies, and some of them are even worth watching. Here’s what’s at the top of the slate for January 2025:
Better Man: It’s a biopic about “Millennium” songster Robbie Williams, but here’s the twist: he’s played by a chimpanzee! (Or some sort of chimp-man hybrid, to be more precise.)
You can find Better Man in theaters on January 10.

Y2K: Remember when we thought the whole wide world was going to explode on January 1, 2000 AD? Kyle Mooney and his collaborators have turned that idea into a whole dang movie.

They keep making new movies, and some of them are even worth watching. Here’s what’s at the top of the slate for October 2024:
Frankie Freako: Some rando genre indie about a little puppet dude who shows up to party and wreak havoc. This looks like the unholy love child of Gremlins, Munchies, Munchie, and the like.
Frankie Freako will get his freak on in limited theaters October 4.

I want to see a movie. (CREDIT: MUBI/Screenshot)
They keep making new movies, and some of them are even worth watching. Here’s what’s at the top of the slate for September 2024:
Speak No Evil: I’ve seen the trailer for this about 6 million times in the past few months. It’s a remake of a Danish film that I’ve heard good things about. James McAvoy looks creepy. There’s also a mini-Halt and Catch Fire reunion.
Movie theaters will Speak No Evil on September 13.

The Watchers: Perhaps the greatest twist of all … is our ability to reproduce? We’ll find out soon enough when Ishana Night Shyamalan (daughter of M. Night) releases her feature directorial debut about a group of entrapped people coming to grips with their mysterious voyeurs.
The Watchers will be watched in movie theaters beginning June 7.
