SNAKE EYES: G.I. JOE ORIGINS (Action)

WHAT’S IT ABOUT? Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins stars Henry Golding as Snake Eyes, a tenacious loner who is welcomed into an ancient Japanese clan called the Arashikage after saving the life of their heir apparent. Upon arrival in Japan, the Arashikage teach Snake Eyes the ways of the ninja warrior while also providing something he’s been longing for: a home. But, when secrets from his past are revealed, Snake Eyes’ honor and allegiance will be tested — even if that means losing the trust of those closest to him.”

WHO’S IN IT? Henry Golding, Andrew Koji, Úrsula Corberó, Samara Weaving, Iko Uwais

WHAT ARE THE CRITICS SAYING?

Rotten Tomatoes Critics Consensus: Far from silent and not particularly deadly, Snake Eyes serves as a step up for the G.I. Joe franchise, thanks in no small part to Henry Golding’s work in the title role. 


OLD (Horror)

WHAT’S IT ABOUT? “A tropical holiday turns into a horrific nightmare when a family visits a secluded beach that’s somehow causing them to age rapidly — reducing their entire lives into a single day.”

WHO’S IN IT? Gael García BernalVicky KriepsRufus SewellKen LeungNikki AmukaBirdAbbey Lee

WHAT ARE THE CRITICS SAYING? 

Rotten Tomatoes Critics Consensus: “Old has no shortage of interesting ideas — and writer-director M. Night Shyamalan‘s uneven execution will intrigue or annoy viewers, with little middle ground between.”
