*Certified Fresh 86% and Verified Hot Popcorn Fresh 93% on RottenTomatoes.com* Critics Consensus - Breaking hearts and mending them in one fell swoop, Hamnet speculates on the inspiration behind Shakespeare's masterpiece with palpable emotional force thanks to Jessie Buckley and Paul Mescal's astonishing performances. TOP CRITIC, Deborah Ross - "Mescal, rightly, takes a back seat while Buckley lets rip with the most astounding ferocity. It is ruthlessly manipulative and maybe you will be able to resist. But I’d take a hanky all the same." Audience Says - A haunting journey through deep sorrow beautifully captured by Chloé Zhao, Hamnet will utterly crush you. Wild child Agnes (Jessie Buckley) prefers spending time in the woods with her hawk to being around her family. A tutor (Paul Mescal) working for her family is immediately smitten when he spots her going past his classroom. They quickly fall in love, are married and have a baby girl. Although they’re deeply in love, Agnes realizes her husband isn’t fulfilled, so she suggests he go to London to pursue his craft – of writing plays. He's wildly successful and makes trips home as much as he’s able, especially when Agnes gives birth to twins. After a tragedy occurs while he’s away, Agnes becomes resentful that she has to face her sorrow alone.

TOP CRITIC, Kevin Maher - "It’s the stuff in between the action, of course, that marks this movie as a masterpiece. Weir is one of the great thinking film-makers and a committed altruist, so the lion’s share of screen time is devoted to small acts of kindness on board." Captain "Lucky" Jack Aubrey (Crowe), renowned as a fighting captain in the British Navy, and ship's doctor Stephen Maturin (Bettany) are on board their ship, the H.M.S. Surprise, when they're suddenly attacked by a superior enemy. With the Surprise badly damaged and much of his crew injured, Aubrey is torn between duty and friendship as he pursues a high-stakes chase across two oceans, to intercept and capture his foe. It's a mission that can make his reputation -- or destroy Lucky Jack and his crew. In the course of the characters' epic journey, the movie travels the world -- from the coast of Brazil to the storm-tossed waters of Cape Horn, south through ice and snow, to the far side of the world, to the remote shores of The Galapagos Islands. Based on author Patrick O'Brian's series of Aubrey/Maturin novels, the story is set during the Napoleonic Wars.

*Certified Fresh 97% and Verified Hot Popcorn Fresh 94% on RottenTomatoes.com* Critics Consensus - Deftly exploring the uneasy tension between artistic expression and personal connection, Sentimental Value is a bracingly mature work from writer-director Joachim Trier that's marvelously acted across the board. TOP CRITIC, Coleman Spilde - "Trier’s film overflows with the kind of genuinely impactful potential that we go to the movies for, the type that leaves us feeling understood more than it makes us feel good." Audience Says - A profoundly resonant family drama for grown-ups, Sentimental Value explores human emotions with assured restraint, leaving an imprint that’s hard to shake. Nora (Renate Reinsve), a gifted stage actress, and her younger sister Agnes (Inga Ibsdotter Lilleaas) were abandoned years ago when they were children by their actor father, Gustav Borg (Stellan Skarsgård), who has always prioritized his work. As a child, Agnes played a role in one of her father's movies and is now a married woman with a child. Nora is conflicted and still angry by her father's abandonment. She wants nothing to do with him so when he comes to her with a script he's written especially with her in mind for the lead, she refuses. He finds a surprising source of support after a Hollywood star, Rachel Kemp (Elle Fanning) discovers his films at a festival retrospective. Preparation on Gustav’s new movie begins with Rachel in the role that Nora rejected.

*Certified Fresh and Verified Hot Popcorn Fresh 97% on RottenTomatoes.com and 'A' Score on CinemaScore.com* Critics Consensus - Bringing a sweet amount of dignity to the art of imitation, Song Sung Blue mostly avoids becoming a mere cover of the documentary on which it's based thanks to Hugh Jackman and Kate Hudson's heartfelt performances. TOP CRITIC, Sandra Hall - "Rather than being sentimental, it’s a fundamentally good-natured film, paying homage, as Brewer says, to those who find their niche as entertainers beloved by those audiences who get the chance to find them and see what they can do." Audience Says - With pitch-perfect performances, Song Sung Blue hits every emotional chord, delivering a wholesome, family-friendly film and a fitting tribute to one of the most beloved singer-songwriters in modern music history. Mike (Hugh Jackman) and Claire Sardina (Kate Hudson) perform as Lightning and Thunder, a Milwaukee husband and wife Neil Diamond/Patsy Cline tribute act. They experience soaring success and devastating heartbreak in their musical journey together.
