Not only does the system prevent upward mobility, but it makes it incredibly easy to slide from comfortably middle class to unhoused.

The more biting satire is reserved for those on top of the power structure, such as the police, while those occupying lower levels are given more nuance and likability, even if they operate on the wrong side of the law. This principle gives Deep Cover its heart. 

For the most part, 'Sweet Girl' recycles tired hyper masculine revenge tropes, but a surprise twist in the end turns it into a female-centric revenge film.

The human experience is described through the eyes of a marginalized outsider, neither judgmental nor invested, just an observant donkey.

Could you use some hearty laughs? Then you’re in the right place! Enjoy this selection of diverse international comedies.

Hulu continues its Summer releases with The Princess. This film follows the princess (yes, she is unnamed) as she attempts to escape her tower, refusing to be wed to a cruel man vying for the throne. Action-packed and snarky, this is a decently fun film if you need a fighting fix.
