'Under Wraps': A 2021 Halloween Remake
This remake of the Disney Channel Original Movie of the same name brings a strong representative cast.

It is almost half a century ago since Mummy's little soldier, Frankie Abbott (David Barry), was at Fenn Street School and he is now in a home, being looked after by his caregiver Agnes (Emma Dark). Frankie's nightmare begins when Agnes bares her fangs and he enters the world of vampires, lured into the graveyard by Clarissa Cobra (Caroline Munro) and meets the fearful Vera Vomit (Judy Matheson) and the vampire psychiatrist Dr Spritzer (Martin Rudman).

A teen comedy that nobody wants to see.
Him is visually stunning—all concrete cathedrals and bone-rattling impact shots that look like a nightmare highlight reel. Marlon Wayans is magnetic as this legendary quarterback who's basically selling salvation with a smile that never quite reaches his eyes. But the story keeps running in circles: more tests, more cryptic pep talks, more ritualistic drills. The sports-as-religion metaphor beats you over the head when subtlety would've been more effective. The middle drags, and that finale chooses spectacle over substance. It's undeniably stylish, but left me cold. Also worth noting: despite the Monkeypaw connection, this isn't actually a Jordan Peele film—he didn't write or direct.
The Roses is a wickedly sharp marital warfare comedy that transforms domestic dysfunction into high art. Olivia Colman and Benedict Cumberbatch deliver powerhouse performances as a couple whose fairy-tale romance implodes when his architectural career collapses just as her culinary empire takes off. What makes Jay Roach's remake so devastatingly effective is its refusal to pick sides—both spouses are equally sympathetic and monstrous, wielding Tony McNamara's razor-sharp dialogue like weapons forged from shared intimacies. It's a film that dares you to laugh at relationship wreckage while forcing you to confront the uncomfortable truth that the line between passionate love and mutual destruction is terrifyingly thin.
‘Oppenheimer’ is a force to be reckoned with. A biopic that respects the audience’s intelligence.
