Why watch this film?
After three decades of "false starts" to create the long-awaited 'Ghostbusters III', and following the sad passing of one of the original actors, Harold Ramis, director Ivan Reitman decided not to direct the project, and put a new director in charge. The chosen one was Paul Feig ('Bridesmaids'), who opted not to continue the story, but to reinvent it with an ensemble cast of established comedians in the lead roles: Kristen Wiig, Melissa McCarthy, Leslie Jones and Kate McKinnon. Despite having been boycotted and battered by fans of the originals (justifiably or not), the 2016 'Ghostbusters' is a decent family entertainment, whose real sin is practically telling the same story (eccentric scientists decide to prove the existence of ghosts, and end up defending New York City from them). It's a fun movie that yes, feels unnecessary for those who have seen the original, but that can definitely work to introduce the franchise to younger fans.

From the same director
A Simple Favor
Filmmaker Paul Feig is most known for comedies that put women at the center of the story, such as "Spy" and "The Heat," or even the remake of "Ghostbusters." For "A Simple Favor," the director takes a different approach by making a thriller, though with humorous elements and maintaining female protagonism. Anna Kendrick ("The Accountant") and Blake Lively ("Gossip Girl") have great chemistry on screen, helping to keep viewers intrigued until the end of the story.
Last Christmas
If you like sweet romantic comedies set during the holiday season, you know what to expect here. 'Last Christmas' follows all that is expected of the subgenre, set to the music of George Michael (and his former duo with Andrew Ridgeley, Wham!) - including 'Last Christmas', which is also the original title of the movie. That's why the script is well-worn and full of clichés. If that's not a problem for you, you'll find a movie to warm your heart. The cast is star-studded, featuring Emilia Clarke ('Game of Thrones'), Henry Golding ('Crazy Rich Asians'), Emma Thompson (from 'Sense and Sensibility', as well as being a screenwriter), Michelle Yeoh ('Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon'), and directed by Paul Feig ('A Simple Favor').
Bridesmaids
Paul Feig is one of those directors who always strive to bring female stories, even though he is not a woman, immersed in romance and comedy. With 'Bridesmaids' it is no different. As outrageous as 'The Spy Who Dumped Me' and 'The Heat', the feature film makes fun of a group of bridesmaids who create a real chaos in the bride's life (Maya Rudolph, less funny than usual). It's a silly movie, like 'The Hangover', but with a focus on women's relationships and what comes out of it. The absolute highlight is Kristen Wiig ('Sisters Disaster'), who stars in the film and also scripts it. But also calling attention, and with hilarious scenes, a different Melissa McCarthy and the always great Rose Byrne.
The School for Good and Evil
"The School for Good and Evil" is the cinematic adaptation of the work written by American author Soman Chainani. Featuring a star-studded cast of Charlize Theron, Kerry Washington, Michelle Yeoh, Laurence Fishburne, and Cate Blanchett, the movie brings a magical children's adventure. The story discusses various themes, such as the dichotomy between good and evil, friendship, and other important values. The narrative is light, intriguing, and entertaining, appealing to both children and adults.
Adventure
Ernest & Celestine: A Trip to Gibberitia
'Ernest & Celestine: A Trip to Gibberitia' - In the follow-up to their first Academy Award®-nominated adventure, the duo returns to Ernest's home in Gibberitia, a land known for its musicians. But Ernest and Celestine soon discover that music has been banned and it is up to them to restore it.
Samson
After losing the love of his life to a cruel Philistine prince, a young Hebrew with Supernatural strength defends his people, sacrificing everything to avenge his love, his people, and his God.
The Book of Clarence
Biblical epics in the style of Ben-Hur are so recognizable in classic cinema that they have been the subject of witty parodies (most notably, the also classic Monty Python's Life of Brian). Here, director Jeymes Samuel (The Harder They Fall) filters the conventions of these films through a black lens, with a cast led by names like Lakeith Stanfield, Alfre Woodard, David Oyelowo, Omar Sy, and Anna Diop, among others. The Book of Clarence follows a man who, aspiring to be someone in life, decides to capitalize on the popularity of Jesus of Nazareth for his own benefit. Through the biblical cliché, the film examines issues such as black identity, the distortion of faith by organized religions, and the very sense of goodness and compassion. It's somewhat uneven but nonetheless entertaining.
Metalocalypse: Army of the Doomstar

Can Nathan Explosion look beyond his brutally damaged ego to save his band, stop the Metalocalypse, and finally face the ultimate evil: Salacia?
