In Theaters: November 16, 2018

There are three releases to talk about this week.

Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald


Fan2stic Beasts and Where to Find Them.

How many fantastic beasts do you think will actually be featured in this movie?  Is it justifiable to refer to this franchise as Fantastic Beasts?  I'm not so sure.

I have very little idea what this movie is about.  Grindelwald is the bad guy.  I think Grindelwald's evil plan is to take over the world.  Newt has to track him down.  Why?  It's very unclear.  Maybe one of his fantastic beasts is a fantastic bloodhound.

It's more Harry Potter, that's the main point that J.K. Rowling is going for here.

Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald is rated PG-13 for some sequences of fantasy action.

Instant Family


It's working title throughout production was "Forgettable Comedy #2378"

Mark Wahlberg and Rose Byrne play a middle-aged married couple who get interested in foster care.  They take in the girl in the middle of the poster who comes with two younger siblings.  I think the teenage girl is the one from Transformers 5.

This movie is supposed to be funny but it doesn't look funny.

Instant Family is rated PG-13 for thematic elements, sexual material, language and some drug references.

Green Book (limited)


Mahershala Ali plays a pianist who goes on tour and Viggo Mortensen plays the simple man he hires to be his driver.  The two are from different worlds and become unlikely friends.  It's based on a true story and I think it looks kind of interesting.

Green Book is rated PG-13 for thematic content, language including racial epithets, smoking, some violence and suggestive material.
