Why watch this film?
'Friends and Strangers' is an Australian comedy film that tells the story of Ray and Alice, two people who meet by chance and decide to go camping. On the trip, the atmosphere is full of tension due to a series of romantic attempts. Back in Sydney, the setbacks continue as Ray waits to get a job to film a wedding at a strange client's house. Thus, we have a light movie with ironic humor that portrays two young people without direction nowadays - and the dynamic between the main actors greatly enhances the production. The director also uses the Sydney locations as an essential part of the comedy in some embarrassing scenes. The movie has a very specific humor of a new generation of young adults, understanding millennials and their dissatisfactions with life and everyday life, extracting from it irony and discomfort. A "cringe" feature-length just right, to openly talk to its target audience.

Down Low
Repressed divorcé, Gary hires Cameron, a spirited and boundary-free sex worker to give him an erotic massage. When Cameron learns how inexperienced middle-aged Gary is, he becomes determined to deliver a crash course in unapologetic queer life. Cameron's agenda of hookup apps and gay nomenclature quickly causes the day to take several riotously obscure turns as the pair endure a nosy, pill-popping neighbor, a dark web intruder, and more in a hilarious evening of consequences and confrontation.
No Me Rompan
Two women struggling with anger issues join forces to defeat an eccentric surgeon who endangers their lives, in this hilarious, comedy-filled romp.
Candy Cane Lane
Like Jumanji, but set in Christmas. Starring Eddie Murphy and Tracee Ellis Ross, "Candy Cane Lane" is a family Christmas comedy in which a man unintentionally makes a deal with a mischievous elf. Now, to avoid being turned into a doll, he must collect the golden rings owned by the characters from the classic song "The 12 Days of Christmas." It's a conventional and somewhat chaotic Christmas movie, but it's enjoyable due to the performances of its cast.
Family Switch
In Freaky Friday, a mother and daughter switch bodies – causing quite a bit of chaos. Now, imagine if an entire family switched bodies, including parents, children, a baby, and even the dog. That's what happens in the amusing comedy Switched: when an unexpected encounter causes the Walkers to swap bodies on the most important day of their lives, they'll need to work together to get what they want. Directed by McG, known for films as diverse as Terminator Salvation and The Babysitter, the feature's main highlight is its cast, led by Jennifer Garner and Ed Helms. It's a goofball comedy that flirts with family comedy, a subgenre that sometimes seems forgotten in the age of VHS and video rental stores but can still bring some laughs.
