Why watch this film?
Melissa McCarthy goes back to her comedy roots in 'Thunder Force', alongside Oscar-winner Octavia Spencer. Exploring a superhero origin story (with all its cliches), this movie is funny - if you surrender to the absurdity, otherwise you won't like it. It's a light production that fulfills its purpose of entertainment. However, don't expect an amazing feature film: the script has some construction problems, as well as in the action scenes, but just seeing McCarthy and Spencer together in a superhero movie is already worth it.

From the same director
Superintelligence
From the same director of 'Thunder Squad', 'Superintelligence' is a new and fun comedy where the talented and charismatic Melissa McCarthy plays Carol, a woman who was chosen by an artificial intelligence to be supervised. The problem is that this is the first step to world domination, and it's up to her to prove that humanity is worthy of salvation. Melissa McCarthy and Ben Falcone repeat the partnership and the movie is even funnier than the other work of the director, and brings the addition of James Corden as the voice of the artificial intelligence. The movie brings a delicious mix of comedy, sci-fi and romance that will leave you with a smile on your face.
Comedy
Mr. Monk's Last Case: A Monk Movie
Monk steps out of retirement as his stepdaughter’s wedding turns tragic when her fiancé dies in a bungee jumping accident.
Descendants: The Rise of Red
The daughters of the Queen of Hearts and Cinderella travel back in time to prevent a coup in Auradon.
Kinds of Kindness
A triptych fable following a man without choice who tries to take control of his own life; a policeman who is alarmed that his wife who was missing-at-sea has returned and seems a different person; and a woman determined to find a specific someone with a special ability, who is destined to become a prodigious spiritual leader.
Love, Divided
From hate to love, there's only one step. Or, in this case, a very thin wall. Love, Divided (a remake of the French film Behind the Wall) is about a game designer (Fernando Guallar) who can only concentrate in absolute silence, which becomes a problem when a singer and pianist (Aitana) who is preparing for an important audition, moves into the adjacent apartment. It's a predictable romantic comedy, and the outcome can be seen from miles away. However, if you enjoy this kind of story, Patricia Font's remake is still charming.
