Taking over for Steven Spielberg, director James Mangold previously sent Wolverine off with Logan and has now directed what is Harrison Ford’s final time in the fedora with Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny.  While obviously not at the level of any of the original trilogy, it is a massive improvement over Kingdom of the Crystal Skull and a fun, if overly long, send-off for Indy.

Hyped up by various executives at DC and WB as one of the greatest superhero movies ever made, The Flash is definitely not that.  It’s mostly okay with fun moments sprinkled throughout but it ends in a sludge of questionable special effects and empty fan service.

Five years ago, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse delivered not only one of the best Spider-Man movies ever made but a medium-shattering new style of animation that pushed the envelope and show how much more was possible in that art form.  Now with Across the Spider-Verse, the team behind the movie has somehow pushed things even further, creating one of the most gorgeous and visually spectacular animated movies ever made and another incredibly fun love letter to all things Spider-Man.

As massive as Super Mario Bros. is, there’s only been one film, the now cult classic from 1993, live-action movie before the release of this past weekend’s animated The Super Mario Bros. Movie.  Illumination and Nintendo’s team-up is an absolute blast with gorgeous animation, tons of inside jokes and easter eggs, and fun set pieces.
