Anna Kendrick makes her directorial debut with Woman of the Hour, diving headfirst into the challenge of both directing and starring in a tense thriller about the dark, twisted true story of a famous 1970s serial killer Rodney Alcala.
It’s What’s Inside
It’s What’s Inside might just be one of the most entertaining films I’ve seen this year. Sure, it’s not flawless, but it has this undeniable charm that would make it a favorite for younger audiences.

The biggest question that I had after watching this film: Did Rose recognize her mom when she watched, “The One After the Superbowl?”
Family Switch
Family Switch feels a bit rushed because there are moments that really work and others that don't at all.

I remember the era of Johnny Football like it was yesterday. His historic rise and fall is fascinating, especially if you are a fan of college football.
