Meet Me In St. Louis (1944) Luminous visuals conjure year in life of early 20th century family with string of hummable songs and gentle comic touch alongside minor romantic complications. Highlighted by a spirited Judy Garland, slightness of dramatic situations still manages to culminate with emotionally satisfying conclusion.


Spies In Disguise (2019) Breezy spy nonsense provides succession of visual and verbal gags to support arrogantly renowned Will Smith's secret agent transformed into bird by hopeful young inventor Tom Holland while they attempt to catch cyber terrorist Ben Mendelsohn. Energy flags in third act, though action remains good natured.


The Owl And The Pussycat (1970) Gritty apartments and cold city streets establish background for relationship between loud prostitute and aspirins actress Barbara Streisand and insecure bookstore assistant and struggling novelist George Segal. Patch laughs and drama elevated by easy skill of leads.


The Devil's Mouth (2026) Energetic group of college friends headlined by unsure Kathrine Newton and controlling Lana Condor explore dense network of Thai caves and are accompanied by bone-crunching shark. Dingy visuals don't help patchy geographical sense with tension-free set pieces and typical lack of character logic.


Manyeo (The Witch Subversion) (2018) Gene manipulation mystery fused with visceral action thrills as violent origins of innocently diligent student Kim Da-mi revealed when she's pursued by controlling scientist Jo Min-su and enhanced killers. Slick visuals and enjoyable twists fulfill enjoyably dark package.


La desconocida (The Marked Woman) (2026) Solid setup sees amnesiac Ana Rujas found in shipping container with damaged Candela Peña and suspicious Pol López the detective uncovering corruptive truth. Though narrative strands stall in final act, grungy visuals, dense soundtrack and persuasive Fernando Velázquez score retains interest. retains interest.


Masters Of The Universe (2026) Colorful design as confusingly applied as balance between action fantasy and self-aware humor in establishing origins of Nicholas Galitzine's He-Man and destiny to combat Jared Leto's Skeletor. Boisterous Daniel Pemberton score can't compensate lack of energy or waste of lively Camila Mendes.
