Preserving Family Traditions in 'Hope Ranch'
The death of Grace's father brings challenges as the family tries to preserve their ranch.

Evangelia visits her grandmother just before leaving for the city where she will study. In the evening she has to go to a party, where she hopes to meet Tasos. Her grandmother takes care of her and makes her the French braid that she has been doing since childhood. But Evangelia does not pay much attention to her grandmother. Not even to the childhood braid. She is impatient for her meeting with Tasos and rushes to leave, to get ready as she wants. When she finally goes to the party, she will be asked to decide what it is that she really needs to say goodbye to just before her departure.

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.
