Why watch this film?
In "Let Them All Talk", Steven Soderbergh typically finds room to let his creativity run wild with looser, faster plots and even considerable space for improvisation. In this HBO Max original production, we follow a successful writer (Meryl Streep) on a cruise ship journey with her friends and nephew. Despite some story excesses, "Let Them All Talk" stands out for Streep's brilliance on screen, with truly standout moments -- in addition to the good performances of Dianne Wiest and Candice Bergen as the protagonist's interesting friends. An agile, fast-paced movie with a strong and surprising ending at the very least.

From the same director
Sex, Lies and Videotape
A smart screenplay, with a superb direction from Steven Soderbergh, in a movie that knows how to blend good dialogues and the zeitgeist of the 1980s with a strong sexual charge, resulting in an unpretentious yet iconic feature film. No wonder, it won the Palme d'Or - the main award of the Cannes Film Festival - in 1989.
Erin Brockovich
Directed by Steven Soderbergh and based on a fascinating (though with some creative license) true story, 'Erin Brockovich' is a legal drama sustained by Julia Roberts' performance in the titular role. Her work ultimately earned her the Oscar for Best Actress.
The Laundromat
The reality is that, in most games, for someone to win, well... someone else has to lose. This dialogue from 'The Laundromat' perfectly sums up the massive leak known as the "Panama Papers", which exposed the tax evasion of hundreds of public figures who hired a Panamanian law firm to take advantage of tax havens and enrich themselves at the expense of others. It may seem dull at first, but with this movie (which was part of the Venice Film Festival and Toronto Film Festival selection), director Steven Soderbergh ('Erin Brockovich', 'Ocean's Eleven') recreates the events of the case through acidic humor to make them quite digestible and even enjoyable, much like Adam McKay's 'The Big Short' or 'Vice'. If none of that convinces you, 'The Laundromat' also features a star-studded cast led by Meryl Streep, Gary Oldman, Antonio Banderas and Jeffrey Wright.
High Flying Bird
Steven Soderbergh, from films such as 'Sex, Lies and Videotape' and 'Ocean's Eleven', presents us with the story of an agent and a basketball player risking their might against the NBA and the major league clubs during a lockout. Furthermore, it's the director's second feature film shot on iPhones. The cast features many familiar faces to the public, such as André Holland ('Moonlight'), Kyle MacLachlan ('Twin Peaks'), Zazie Beetz ('Deadpool 2') Caleb McLaughlin ('Stranger Things'), while the screenplay is by Tarell Alvin McCraney (who also wrote 'Moonlight').
Unsane
Fully shot with iPhone 7 Plus cameras, 'Disturbance' is the new film from Steven Soderbergh ('Erin Brockovich: A Woman of Talent'). A provocative production that brings reality closer with this more homemade filming, making cinematography closer to the viewer. Even so, Soderbergh does not neglect elaborate scenes and a refined aesthetic.
Contagion
One of the most popular films by filmmaker Steven Soderbergh (of 'Ocean's Eleven'), 'Contagion' follows the director's style to a tee. The plot is intricate, with overlapping stories, while the characters are extremely real. The epidemic in this case goes against what other filmmakers do. It's more down to earth, more realistic and has everything to do with the health crisis the world lives in and has lived in. In addition, Soderbergh manages to bring together a strong cast from several nationalities, amplifying the tone that a virus does not stop at borders. Special mention must be made of Jude Law, Kate Winslet, Marion Cotillard and Laurence Fishburne, who share intense, powerful scenes.
Ocean's Twelve
Despite not having the charm of the first, it remains an interesting sequel. Steven Soderbergh, back in the director's chair, managed to reunite the stellar cast formed by George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, Julia Roberts and many more. The script leaves something to be desired, but it has electrifying sequences and still entertains, mainly due to the presence of Catherine Zeta-Jones and the humor. Unfortunately, it is the weakest of the trilogy and ends up having a very similar formula to the first - which gives that feeling of "I've seen this before". One of the best scenes of 'Ocean's Twelve' is when Matt Damon's character tries to close a deal reciting "Kashmir", a Led Zeppelin song. Soderbergh deserves attention just for this sequence.
Ocean's Thirteen
Sometimes, repeating the formula for a second (and even third) time takes away the fun. This is the case here. 'Ocean's Thirteen' is the conclusion of the franchise that began in 2001, with the remake of 'Ocean's Eleven'. As in the first movie, Las Vegas is once again the backdrop of the story and the 2000s Rat Pack formed by George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, Andy Garcia and Matt Damon returns even more powerful. This time, the production even brings Al Pacino, who gives an extra life to the plot. What is missing from the movie are actresses Julia Roberts and Catherine Zeta-Jones, who did not return for the last chapter of the franchise.
Magic Mike's Last Dance
The Magic Mike franchise returns with two of its creators, original director Steven Soderbergh and star Channing Tatum, to close out the trilogy with a story vastly different from its predecessors. The plot follows "Magic" Mike Lane (Tatum) again, who has left behind his job as a stripper and is now down on his luck, working as a bartender in Florida. However, a wealthy socialite (Salma Hayek) makes him an offer he can't refuse, so he must travel to London and now impart his knowledge to a group of dancers. Though it has more style than substance, 'Magic Mike: The Last Dance' is a more intimate and mature story, an interesting direction for the character's last tale.
No Sudden Move
Starring Benicio del Toro and Don Cheadle, 'No Sudden Move', Steven Soderbergh's (director of 'Contagion' and 'Erin Brokovich') new movie is about a group of criminals who are hired to steal a document, but the plan goes terribly wrong. It's not absurd to say that Soderbergh is one of the most prolific and daring directors working today. Even if he doesn't always get it right, he still deserves credit for taking risks on various different propositions, experimenting with new ways of making films. His latest gamble is on a stylish, edge-of-your-seat crime thriller with an engaging storyline and a star-studded cast guaranteed to captivate audiences. This is also the director's second movie for HBO Max.
Kimi
Starring Zoë Kravitz from 'The Batman', the feature film 'Kimi' takes up the subject of agoraphobia - also addressed in 'The Woman in the Window' - by telling the story of an agoraphobic Seattle worker who discovers evidence of a crime. With the exciting and elegant direction of Steven Soderbergh, from 'Ocean's Eleven' and 'Out of Sight', the movie brings an interesting mix of thriller with science fiction, surprising the viewer with the unexpected course of the narrative. Absolute highlight for Kravitz, who does well in a very challenging role.
Comedy
Psychic by Accident
In the plot, at the age of 40, architect Ulisses (Otaviano Costa), skeptical of his career and unsure of his talents, visits a “vocational coach” who promises to find people’s true vocation. After drinking suspicious tea offered by the professional in her crazy ritual, Ulisses blacks out and has his belongings stolen. But mysteriously he leaves there with a strange power: discovering, with just a touch, people's true vocation.

Descendants: The Rise of Red

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.
