It’s only spring, but a new film may already have the best title of the year — “Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die.” The story that follows is weird, unpredictable, kinda funny and kinda scary. -
“How to Make a Killing” is an updated version of a classic British comedy. But all it shows is how not to do a remake. -
“Paralyzed By Hope: The Maria Bamford Story” is screening in the Premieres section. -
“The Last First: Winter K2” is screening in the Premieres section. -
“American Pachuco: The Legend of Luis Valdez” is screening in the U.S. Documentary competition. -
The new film “Anaconda” is a reboot — and also, a spoof about Hollywood doing reboots. -
The new film “Wicked: For Good” completes the film adaptation of the 2003 Broadway hit musical. Like Part One last year, it’s arriving in theaters with a splash, just in time for the holidays. -
In the new comedy “Good Fortune,” not even a guardian angel has an easy solution for the wide gap between the Haves and the Have-Nots. -
The legendary band Spinal Tap returns, 41 years after their first film appearance. But can they crank it up to 11 this time? -
As summer draws to a close, the new film “Weapons” shows up as a treat for fans of creepy cinema, and is serious competition for this year’s better-known blockbusters.
