Trailer
Why watch this film?
"This is the Night" is curiously directed by the creator of the "A Night of Crime" franchise, James DeMonaco, and here he delivers a much more intimate work and totally distant from his terror franchise - or almost: to be fair, a brief resemblance is that this movie also takes place during a busy night. The feature is a coming-of-age story, with autobiographical nuances. It tells the story of a boy from an Italian immigrant family growing up in an American city, and pursuing his dreams and his place. Although it lacks a bit of charisma and originality, the movie is unpretentious and pleasant, with an identifiable character and a story of self-knowledge easy to relate to.

The Purge: Anarchy
The premise is already surprising, though morally debatable. During the 'Purge Night', any American citizen is allowed to kill whoever they want and get away with it. The plot then shows various characters driven by hate to do justice.
The Purge
A country where people can commit crimes at will, during one night, without any kind of condemnation. That is the premise of the inventive and entertaining 'The Purge', a feature film by James DeMonaco - which ended up generating three other films and a TV series. With a star-studded cast, including Ethan Hawke ('Before Sunrise') and Lena Headey ('Game of Thrones'), the feature film creates a tense and apprehensive atmosphere as it shows a family that is put at risk during this night of crime, also known as The Purge. There are some considerable narrative problems, in addition to a rhythm that breaks in the middle. However, the premise is still interesting enough to keep the viewer's attention for a surprising and quite violent ending.
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.
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.
