Tachigui retells Japan's history from 1945 to 21st century through the feats of self-proclaimed dine and dash professionals - the Fast Food Grifters are the phantoms that rise and fall with the shifting diet-styles.

Taika Waititi writes, directs and co-stars in 'Boy', set in 1984 New Zealand. The film does just what Waititi dreamed of — it gave a great coming-of-age story to Māori people without making a story of the Māori people as an exotic other.
Gritty and bleak are the best words to describe this film. There’s nothing happy about it.
Self expression among teenagers is explored in the live adaptation of Jerry Spinelli's novel of the same name.
While subverting the conventions of Golden Age cinema with the characteristics of a slasher, Pearl studies the delusions of grandeur inspired by the movies.
During the third act, the momentum stalls, largely due to the film’s obsession with Kubrick’s visual design. But all in all, Doctor Sleep is a cinematic success, defined by rich characters and high powered emotion.
Despite everything it was capable of, all of these poor choices strung together amount to nothing more than a counter-productive film.
