Why watch this film?
The idea of "time travel through smell" is so strange that it shouldn't work in a queer thriller about a shocking crime in the past that transforms a family's life. Yet, there's no other way to describe "Les Cinq Demons", from director Léa Mysius (writer of "Paris District 13"). With phenomenal performances from Adèle Exarchopoulos ("Life of Adele"), Swala Emati and young Sally Dramé, the movie tells the story of a woman (Exarchopoulos), her husband and their daughter (Dramé) whose lives are changed by the reappearance of her sister-in-law (Emati), with whom she has a past, and whom the girl begins to uncover by traveling back in time. It's a strange (but powerful) story of magical realism that transcends genres - from thriller to romance to fantasy - and explores how our personal struggles can have irreparable effects on our emotional bonds.

Dredd
In the future, America is a dystopian wasteland. The latest scourge is Ma-Ma, a prostitute-turned-drug pusher with a dangerous new drug and aims to take over the city. The only possibility of stopping her is an elite group of urban police called Judges, who combine the duties of judge, jury and executioner to deliver a brutal brand of swift justice. But even the top-ranking Judge, Dredd, discovers that taking down Ma-Ma isn’t as easy as it seems in this explosive adaptation of the hugely popular comic series.
Rebel Moon - Part Two: The Scargiver
It was said about the first installment, and it can be said about Netflix's Rebel Moon (Part Two): it is a movie that only Zack Snyder fans will enjoy. The film continues to be a copy of the classic 'Seven Samurai', but in space: our heroes, led by Kora (Sofia Boutella), return to their small agricultural moon to prepare the defense against the invaders from the Empire. The story unfolds in a predictable manner (even more so if you've seen Kurosawa's classic), with Snyder's usual stylistic vices: overuse of slow motion and gratuitous Christian symbolism. If you liked the previous one (or the director's other movies), you will undoubtedly enjoy it. Otherwise, it might be better to skip it.
