Also, Ron Howard’s new one, an oddball friendship, a chaotic dinner party and one woman’s look at modern morality.

New work from Adam Sandler and Robert De Niro, a high school comedy, a couple of tales for Halloween and, thankfully, a very good film about a Black woman trying both playwriting and rapping.

A high school comedy, a timely healthy eating experiment and a mid-life bender.

Also dramas about schizophrenia, turning off technology and time travelling to save the world.

Also drug addiction among Indigenous youth and Angela Merkel fretting over the politics of refugees.

Also a sketchy bio of Nikola Tesla, a poignant workplace drama, and some brutal revenge filmed in Canada.

Also another humanistic film from Iran, and genre fun from Vancouver.

Plus some Aussie family fun, two not so fun family tales, and celebrating a female scientist.

Also young girls maturing fast, a hit song’s impact, and some of the usual violence.

And more: viral politics, a Greek chiller, a Winnipeg rom-com, low-level hockey, and a twist on the Bard.
