★ ★ ★ ★ Excellent ★ ★ ★ Good ★ ★ Fair ★ Poor

After the Wedding

Drama. A manager (Michelle Williams) of an orphanage in India travels to New York to meet a benefactor (Julianne Moore), but secrets soon emerge. An American remake of one of the best films of the 21st century that has much less of what made the original so good. (PG-13 for thematic material and some strong language) ★★ 1/2 (Mick LaSalle, Hearst Newspapers)

Angel Has Fallen

Action. Secret Service Agent Mike Banning Gerard Butler) is framed for the attempted assassination of the president and must evade his own agency and the FBI as he tries to uncover the real threat. (R for violence and language thrughout) ★★★ (M.L.)

The Angry BirdsMovie 2

Animated. The flightless birds and scheming green pigs take their beef to the next level. (PG for rude humor and action)

Brittany Runs a Marathon

Comedy-drama. A hard-partying, unhealthy woman (Jillian Bell) takes up running to prepare for the New York City Marathon. Based-on-real-life tale of an obese woman's challenging journey to take control of her life, it's inspiring, well-written and contains an appealingly, curmudgeonly central performance by comedian Jillian Bell. (R for language throughout, sexuality and some drug material) ★★★ (G.A.J.)

Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw

Action. Lawman Luke Hobbs (Dwayne Johnson) and outcast Deckard Shaw (Jason Statham) form an unlikely alliance when a cyber-genetically enhanced villain (Idris Elba) threatens the future of humanity. If you want to strap in and have a movie take you for a big ride, "Hobbs & Shaw" is the best of its kind since "Mission: Impossible — Fallout." (PG-13 for prolonged sequences of action and violence, suggestive material and some strong language) ★★★ 1/2 (M.L.)

Good Boys

Comedy. Three sixth-grade boys ditch school and embark on an epic journey while carrying accidentally stolen drugs, being hunted by teenage girls, and trying to make their way home in time for a long-awaited party. (R for strong crude sexual content, drug and alcohol material, and language throughout — all involving tweens) ★ (M.L.)★

It: Chapter Two

Horror. Twenty-seven years after their first encounter with the terrifying Pennywise, the Losers Club have grown up and moved away, until a devastating phone call brings them back. The first "It" had a strong "Stand By Me" vibe, and would have worked even without the killer clown. The sequel is a messier production that is barely coherent. (R for disturbing violent content and bloody images throughout, pervasive language, and some crude sexual material) ★★ 1/2 (Peter Hartlaub, Hearst Newspapers)

The Lion King

Action. After the murder of his father, a young lion prince flees his kingdom only to learn the true meaning of responsibility and bravery, in this "live action" CGI version of the 1994 Oscar-winning animated classic. Featuring the voices of Donald Glover, Beyonce, Chiwetel Ejiofor, John Oliver, Billy Eichner, Seth Rogen, Keegan-Michael Key, Alfre Woodard and the impossible-to-recast James Earl Jones. (PG for sequences of violence and peril, and some thematic elements) ★★ 1/2 (M.L.)

Luce

Drama. A married couple (Tim Roth and Naomi Watts) is forced to reckon with their idealized image of their son (Kelvin Harrison Jr.), adopted from war-torn Eritrea, after an alarming discovery by a devoted high school teacher (Octavia Spencer) threatens his status as an all-star student. (R for language throughout, sexual content, nudity and some drug use) ★★ 1/2 (M.L.)

Maiden

Documentary. The story of Tracy Edwards, a 24-year-old cook on charter boats, who became the skipper of the first all-female crew to enter the Whitbread Round the World Race in 1989. "Maiden" is very much a feel-good movie, a tale of underdogs finding their strength, combined with a character study and a sprinkling of social history. (PG for language, thematic elements, some suggestive content and brief smoking images) ★★★ (M.L.)

Overcomer

Drama. Life changes overnight for basketball coach John Harrison and the high school where he and his wife teach when they learn the largest manufacturing plant in town is shutting down. (PG for some thematic elements)

The Peanut Butter Falcon

Ready or Not

Thriller. A bride's wedding night takes a sinister turn when her eccentric new in-laws force her to take part in a terrifying game. (R for violence, bloody images, language throughout, and some drug use) ★ (G.A.J.)

Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark

Horror. A group of teens face their fears in order to save their lives. (PG-13 for terror/violence, disturbing images, thematic elements, language, including racial epithets, and brief sexual references) ★★★ (G.A.J.)

Where'd You Go, Bernadette

Comedy. A loving mom becomes compelled to reconnect with her creative passions after years of sacrificing herself for her family. Cate Blanchett takes the title role and has a party with it. She lifts the film, though whether she lifts it enough as to make it worth seeing is a maybe-sort of proposition. (PG-13 for some strong language and drug material) ★★ 1/2 (M.L.)
