Porcupine Tree: In Absentia Documentary 

An artistic approach to the impact of Billie Holiday’s “Strange Fruit”.

A surprise sequel takes place ten years after the original movie based on the title of the same name, but with a twist to the fairy tale.

An excellent exploration of taking a joke too far.

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.
