Escaping Doppelgangers: "Coraline" Serves Up Adventure in a Parallel World
This delightfully odd horror movie presents a whimsically strange alternate reality to younger audiences.
Half-Dead, Half-Dead Can't Get Out. Odyssey 1992
Two directors begin casting a film about the 1990s, which gradually devolves into a space of uncertainty where the distinction between document and fiction disappears. This subtle disruption in the process—the appearance of a single actor obsessed with "accuracy"—leads to a loss of control and implicates them. At the edge of this experience, between life and death, both directors find themselves inside their own, never-made film.

"Him" - All Flash, No Game
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.
