*Certified Fresh and Popcorn Fresh 89% on RottenTomatoes.com* Audience Says - Sense and Sensibility is a charming adaptation that gracefully brings audiences to the countryside cottage for enchanting romance and invaluable sisterhood. Critics Consensus - Elevating the Dashwood sisters' relationship to the forefront of Jane Austen's classic tale of courtship, Georgia Oakley's Sense and Sensibility may not best previous adaptations but achieves a wistful identity of its own. TOP CRITIC, Wendy Ide - “The humour, like the mossy tones and wintry light of this version, is more muted than that of Lee’s film, but Marianne delivers many of the most satisfying lines.” TOP CRITIC, Derek Smith – “What makes the film a fresh, if not altogether revelatory, take on the material is the intimacy and sincerity with which it presents Elinor and Marianne’s parallel journeys.” TOP CRITIC, Anna Stafford - “The bond between the two elder Dashwoods proves the film’s real love story, a tender, tumultuous sisterhood that both actors clearly treat as the main event.” TOP CRITIC, William Bibbiani - “Georgia Oakley’s adaptation of Jane Austen’s timeless, beloved 1811 novel is enchanting and beautiful, just as it should be. It’s also, in its earthy and humorous way, intensely riveting, which is also as it should be.” Sisters Elinor (Daisy Edgar-Jones) and Marianne Dashwood (Esme Creed-Miles) must leave their Sussex estate and move in with a distant relative, facing romance and money troubles. Based on the novel by Jane Austen.

*Certified Fresh 95% and Verified Hot Popcorn Fresh 93% on RottenTomatoes.com* Critics Consensus - Wicker is a charming fable that strikes the right balance between naughty and nice, drawing much of its appeal from deftly deployed salty humour, seamless creature effects, and Olivia Colman's eminently lovable performance. TOP CRITIC, Marshall Shaffer – “It’s a thrilling rarity because it marries a disposition of childlike sincerity with a story whose themes are adult in more ways than one.” TOP CRITIC, Randy Myers - “Alex Huston Fischer and Eleanor Wilson’s ribald fable casts a comedic spell as it leads to a Satisfying finale. You’ll have a good time with this one.” TOP CRITIC, Johnny Oleksinski - “Quite like her Oscar-winning performance in “The Favorite,” Colman, who’s never afraid to act ridiculous, is untethered and batty until things get real. Or, as real as things can get when one’s hubby is an oversize vessel for potpurri.” TOP CRITIC, Robert Daniels - “Fischer and Wilson know that even the most fantastical must feel close and emotionally real. "Wicker," thankfully, is as real as it gets.” An audacious comedic fable about sex, marriage, and the absurdities of social convention, WICKER tells the wholly original love story of an ostracized fisherwoman (Olivia Colman) who commissions a husband to be made by the local basketmaker (Peter Dinklage). When her wicker husband (Alexander Skarsgård) proves more spectacular than she ever imagined, his soulful spirit and unique prowess awaken something inside her, setting off a wave of jealousy, fascination, and upheaval that threatens the very fabric of village life. Based on the short story "The Wicker Husband" by Ursula Wills.

*The #3 Movie in Canada!* Certified Fresh 99% and Verified Hot Popcorn Fresh 97% on RottenTomatoes.com and 'A' Score on CinemaScore.com Critics Consensus - A marvelous technical achievement that packs an emotional wallop, Wildwood reaffirms the value of a thoughtful fantasy tale told straight while dazzling the eye with its innovative and painstaking stop-motion wizardry. TOP CRITIC, Robbie Collin – “Wildwood goes even further: here it feels as if the toys have built their own secret kingdom, full of eeriness and wonder, into which mere mortals -- Prue and Curtis, but also us in the audience -- have been momentarily allowed to trespass.” TOP CRITIC, Peter Bradshaw - “It’s a forthright, exuberant, good-natured and old-fashioned children’s tale which CS Lewis and JRR Tolkien might have recognised.” TOP CRITIC, Frank Scheck - “Laika’s most ambitious effort to date, Wildwood may also be the company’s masterpiece.” TOP CRITIC, William Bibbiani - “It’s impressive to watch Travis Knight’s film even if you don’t know how the sausage got made. If you do know, if you even have the slightest inkling, then it’s one of the most astonishing animated films ever produced.” After her baby brother is abducted by a murder of crows, headstrong teenager Prue McKeel launches a desperate rescue mission into the Impassable Wilderness—an enchanted forest hidden just beyond Portland, Oregon. Joined by her hapless, but loyal classmate Curtis Mehlberg, Prue navigates a world of talking animals, bandits, and powerful figures driven by grief and ambition. As the pair is drawn into a conflict threatening the balance of the forest itself, Prue must discover strength and belief she never knew she possessed. If she hopes to save her brother and protect Wildwood’s fragile future, she will have to risk everything. From Oscar®-nominated and BAFTA®-winning LAIKA, Wildwood is a sweeping adventure about love, sacrifice, and the magic that reveals itself when we dare to look beyond the familiar.

*The #2 Movie in Canada!* Certified Fresh 98% and Verified Hot Popcorn Fresh 96% on RottenTomatoes.com Audience Says - You Can See Everything flips the documentary form on its head, adding surreal layers to this complex portrait of Holmes and her life -- with questions about how much of either can truly be seen. Critics Consensus - Nathan Fielder's ironclad commitment to the bit is pushed to its limit in You Can See Everything, an inscrutable Rorschach Test of Elizabeth Holmes' psyche that's as absorbing as it is haunting. TOP CRITIC, Max Weiss – “If you have any fear of getting bored during a three-hour film, I assure you, you won’t. Fielder has made something wholly original here.” TOP CRITIC, Sara Michelle Fetters - “And maybe that is the point. No matter how hard you try, no matter how deep you dig, sometimes the truth isn’t as clear or as obvious as it may seem.” TOP CRITIC, Peter Travers - “A three-hour cinema landmark from prickly Nathan Fielder that follows fraudster Elizabeth Holmes to jail and makes a winning case for being the first doc ever to get into the Oscar race for best picture.” TOP CRITIC, Johnny Oleksinski - “The ultimate takeaway of this absolutely sensational, reality-bending, unmissable documentary? With Elizabeth Holmes, we will never see everything.” Thirty-four days before she’s sent to prison, notorious Silicon Valley founder Elizabeth Holmes invites a skeptical film crew to document her every move. What begins as an intimate portrait of an enigmatic felon becomes a mind-bending three-year journey into the abyss.
