Why watch this film?
If you liked the 'Happy Death Day' franchise movies, 'Freaky' is definitely a good pick. Although director Christopher Landon doesn't repeat his performance from the first 'Happy Death Day', there is a good mix of comedy and horror here as we follow the journey of this girl (Kathryn Newton) whose consciousness is swapped with that of a serial killer (Vince Vaughn). The suspense and terror aren't as sharp - despite the constant presence of blood and violence. The highlight is really this consciousness-swapping plot, in the style of 'Freaky Friday', where Vince Vaughn is sure to make anyone laugh with his teenage girl types and mannerisms.

Happy Death Day 2U
Two years after the shocking first movie, the sequel 'Happy Death Day 2U' continues its interesting approach to terror with an ambitious concept that mixes science-fiction, mystery and comedy. The feature film takes risks with a humor that borders on the absurd, but the real differentiator is the great performances. In the end, we have a rarity: a sequel that surpasses the predecessor, making it even better.
Happy Death Day
Much of the audience and critics sum up the essence of 'A Morte Te Dá Parabéns' as a mix of slashers like 'Panic' or 'Halloween', with 'Groundhog Day', the comedy of which Bill Murray also gets stuck in the same day (although some also consider there's something of 'Mean Girls' in the recipe). Certainly it would be an accurate comparison, and although it could make you think this movie has very little originality, the truth is it has several merits. The main one is that 'Happy Death Day', almost identically to 'Groundhog Day', focuses on a totally rude and unpleasant main character, who gradually realizes her own behavior and tries to improve as the person she is with each time she relives the same day. Lead actress Jessica Rothe ('La La Land') convinces in all phases of Tree's progression, from her side as a spoiled and cruel child, through moments of comedy to her redemption and heroine phase. So no, it's not the most original horror movie out there, but it's very entertaining thanks to the charisma of its lead actress and a satisfactory cast.
We Have a Ghost
If you remember the classic movie The Haunted Mansion with Eddie Murphy, then you'll find something similar in this Netflix movie. We Have a Ghost is the story of a family that moves into a typical haunted house, where a ghost (David Harbour, Stranger Things) resides and doesn't remember what happened, so the family decides to solve the mystery. It's a wild mix of genres, from action to comedy, horror, and mystery. It's not always very coherent, but it's very entertaining. Plus, Jennifer Coolidge's (The White Lotus) performance is very funny.
Comedy
A Brighter Tomorrow
Italian filmmaker Nanni Moretti (winner of the Palme d'Or in 2001 for The Son's Room) returns with what has been called his 8½, for obvious reasons. A Brighter Tomorrow is the story of a filmmaker struggling to shoot a movie about the Hungarian Revolution, while trying to save his marriage to his producer wife. The film satirizes the current state of cinema, and perhaps indulges a bit too much in its nostalgia. It is far from the best that veteran Moretti has to offer, but if you've enjoyed his previous films, you will undoubtedly enjoy this one.
City Hunter
'City Hunter' - An exceptional marksman and hopeless playboy, private eye Ryo Saeba reluctantly forms an alliance with his late partner’s sister to investigate his death.
Club Zero
Miss Novak joins the staff of an international boarding school to teach a conscious eating class and forms a strong bond with five students that eventually takes a dangerous turn.
Aumenta que é Rock’n’Roll
The film tells the story of Luiz Antônio, a clumsy radio presenter who, unexpectedly, finds himself in charge of a bankrupt and falling apart radio station. Relying only on his passion for rock’n’roll and a crazy team, he created one of the most emblematic radio stations in the history of Brazilian rock, Fluminense FM. Between guitar solos and signal interference, we follow the adventures and misadventures of Luiz who, on top of that, falls in love with a married announcer.
