Why watch this film?
Movies about friendship between animals and children are a common sight in cinemas. 'Beethoven', 'The Little Stuart Little' and 'Free Willy' are just some good examples of this type of movie. However, despite being a somewhat saturated formula, what a pleasant surprise is the moving 'Storm Boy'. Directed by Shawn Seet (from the series 'The Code'), the feature film tells the story of a businessman (Geoffrey Rush, as always very well) who begins to remember his past and his childhood. As a focus, however, enters his story with a rescued pelican that became his frequent companion. It is a tearful movie, with a story known to all, but which will surely please those who seek light plots, and still moving, to shed some tears and leave the spirit lighter. Highlight for Rush ('The Best Shot') and for the little Finn Little (from 'Tidelands'), who knows how to move in the right measure.

Five Blind Dates
A romantic comedy with a cast of actors of Chinese origin and some narrative elements drawn from the culture of the Asian country. However, beyond that, it falls within the conventional. "Five Blind Dates" is the story of Lia (Shuang Hu), a woman who has focused more on the success of her store than on romance. However, when a fortune teller tells her that she will have to go on five romantic dates to save her business, she decides to open up. Each date will bring a different character and, with it, very crazy and funny situations. If you enjoy seeing that in romantic comedies, "Five Blind Dates" will be a guaranteed hit for you.

Twisters
Twisters, as its title suggests, is a sequel to the classic 1996 movie Twister, and while its plot does not have a direct link to its predecessor, it essentially tells the same story, with some changes and updates. Set in the present day, the plot follows Kate (Daisy Edgar-Jones, Fresh), a meteorologist disillusioned by a past tornado tragedy, living in New York with a desk job. However, when she returns to Oklahoma to assist a colleague with tornado experiments, she meets Tyler (Glen Powell, Hit Man), a charismatic YouTuber who gets in her way. Although not a film that really offers anything innovative (if you saw the first one, you've seen this new version), the disaster sequences are spectacular, and both Edgar-Jones and Powell deliver excellent, emotive, and fun performances.

The Imaginary
The Imaginary is a Japanese film featuring hand-drawn animation by Studio Ponoc, founded by producer and screenwriter Yoshiaki Nishimura (known for Mary and The Witch's Flower) after leaving Studio Ghibli following the production of The Secret World of Arrietty. The plot follows Rudger, a boy imagined by a girl named Amanda. One day, Rudger gets lost and ends up in the City of Imaginaries, home to all the imaginary friends who are being forgotten by their children. Meanwhile, Amanda embarks on an adventure to find him. It is a beautiful story about the loss of innocence to reality and the power of imagination, which also stands out for its hand-drawn animation. Conceptually, it resembles its Hollywood contemporary IF, though truth be told, this film is more imaginative and coherent. A must-watch, especially if you are a fan of Japanese animation and are interested in discovering new names—and studios—dedicated to it.

Planet of the Apes
For fans of the 1968 classic Planet of the Apes, disappointed by the declining quality of its four sequels, this Tim Burton-directed remake was a source of much excitement. Eventually, it was also frustration. The film, despite its excellent makeup, production design, visual effects, and a cast with names like Tim Roth, Helena Bonham Carter, and Michael Clarke Duncan, didn't exactly live up to the lofty ideas of its original, and changed several elements of the narrative although he rescued or adapted others that were too iconic (the ending, although different, maintains the same idea). It is, at its best, an interesting interpretation of a classic, through the unique lens of Burton and his penchant for B-movie sci-fi.

Gasoline Rainbow
Gasoline Rainbow, a film selected at festivals like SXSW and Venice, is directed by brothers Bill and Turner Ross, who often blur the lines between documentary and fiction. This story is about five teenage friends from a small Oregon town who, with no major plans and school behind them, decide to embark on a journey in an old van to a place they have never been: the Pacific beach. Cheerful and optimistic, it is a portrait of Generation Z's ideals and attitudes, where the destination is not as important as the journey and the people we meet along the way.
