Trailer
Why watch this film?
Danny Moore (Orlando Bloom, from Pirates of the Caribbean) is a Nissan marketing executive trying to make an ambitious project come to life: putting players of the simulator game that gives the movie its name into the real world, driving cars on a track. Despite this premise looking like marketing, Neill Blomkamp (District 9, Elysium) takes the story and focuses on the journey of Jann (Archie Madekwe), a British youngster who fights to be one of those selected to drive for real, and Jack (David Harbour, from Stranger Things), Jann's coach who doesn't take the obvious path and has great heart. The racing scenes are correct and, despite some visual slips, should impact the general audience. The best part is the chemistry between Madekwe and Harbour, which convinces as a totally unconventional racing duo that touches your heart.

From the same director
District 9
Typically, alien invasion stories in the cinema are told using strong tones of suspense, thriller, and horror. South African filmmaker Neill Blomkamp's "District 9" (from "Chappie") takes a different approach by using an alien plot to address prejudice, gentrification, migration, and apartheid. It's an uncomfortable movie that helps viewers immerse themselves in a believable fantasy reality that evokes different emotions and reminds us of some of the reactions "The Thing" produces. Sharlto Copley's (from "Hardcore: Mission Extreme") performance adds an even more dramatic and disturbing tone to the film, which doesn't shy away from delivering powerful (and sometimes blatant) messages to the audience. Great movie.
Demonic
From the mind of Neill Blomkamp, of 'District 9' and 'Chappie', this horror movie tells the story of a young woman who must face demonic forces that have been unleashed due to an ancient feud involving a mother and her daughter. It's incredible how productions with demons usually bring family dramas as a backdrop. The supernatural side is already complicated, when family issues come into play then the situation only worsens. 'Demonic' is a well-thought-out horror and manages to be original within the arc of generic feature films that we already know. The narrative may not please many people, but it will certainly bring good entertainment to genre fans. Blomkamp's productions are usually at least interesting.
Action
The Fall Guy
The Fall Guy is one of those films that seem designed to have it all and thus please the broadest audience possible. Based on the 1980s series of the same name and directed by David Leitch (former stunt double and now director of films like Bullet Train and Deadpool 2), the movie follows Colt Seavers (Ryan Gosling), a down-on-his-luck stunt double who must investigate the mysterious disappearance of actor Tom Ryder (Aaron Taylor-Johnson), as this would ruin the first movie of his beloved, filmmaker Jody (Emily Blunt). And the major problem with this movie is that it tries to be everything: romantic comedy, action comedy, Hollywood satire, crime mystery, and more, hampered by the magnitude of its own ambitions, as well as an overloaded and unclear script. You can enjoy it as an insight into the world behind action cinema, and for the charisma of Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt.
Money
In this high-stakes action thriller, two pharmaceutical executives are about to get away with stealing $5 million until an uninvited houseguest derails their plans and holds them hostage during an all-night standoff. Featuring a powerful ensemble cast, including Jesse Williams, Kellan Lutz and Jess Weixler, MONEY is a chilling lesson in greed that will keep you guessing until the very end!
Deadpool & Wolverine
Wolverine is recovering from his injuries when he crosses paths with the loudmouth, Deadpool. They team up to defeat a common enemy.

The Witch: Part 2. The Other One - A fast-paced action, mystery and thriller film that follows a young woman with impressive telekinetic powers, desperately fighting for her life while unraveling the mysteries of her past, pursued by unscrupulous killers.
