“Love Lies Bleeding” will be one of A24’s most productive films of the year. Think of it as a cross between “Thelma and Louise” and “Kill Bill” directed by the Coen brothers and with the sapphic vibes turned up to 11.
Kristen Stewart is in fine form as Lou, a lonely gym manager struggling to build a new life outside the influence of her crime family. She falls for an up-and-coming bodybuilder named Jackie (Katy O’Brian), who is headed to what she hopes will be her big break in Las Vegas. The two hit it off, but their passionate romance turns into a chaotic, bloody descent into a poisonous love affair after Lou’s circle of relatives gets involved.

“The Hotspot,” one of last year’s most disturbing videos, but did you know that several members of the family that starred in Jonathan Glazer’s Oscar-winning drama are still alive today?
“The Commander’s Shadow” follows Hans Jürgen Höss, the 87-year-old son of Auschwitz commandant Rudolf Höss. At the urging of his son and grandson, Hans nevertheless reads the memoirs his father wrote while awaiting execution and struggles to reconcile his father’s fond memories with this man’s horrific legacy. Meanwhile, a parallel story unfolds about Anita Lasker-Wallfisch, a German Jewish cellist and Auschwitz survivor who played in the camp’s orchestra. The two come face-to-face with their respective children in a touching display of humanity.

“Godzilla Minus One” likely would have replaced that, but “Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire” takes the series back to its roots, with larger-than-life sets and a blockbuster display of stunning special effects. Forget about its fragile plot. Don’t expect anything deeper than the thrill of popcorn.
This sequel to 2021’s “Godzilla vs. Kong” forces the laser lizard and the gigantic ape to put aside their afterlife to face a new threat. With an ice-spewing titan threatening to emerge from the Hollow Earth and wreak havoc on the surface, those ancient adversaries join a war of epic proportions for the fate of the world.
