The trailer for Mickey 17, Bong Joon Ho’s latest sci-fi comedy, features an all-star cast and a mind-bending premise.
“Now that’s a trailer, folks! ‘Ain’t That A Kick In The Head’ in the background, Robert Pattinson debuting another wild voice in the foreground (The Boy & The Heron, you will always be famous), and a whole lotta Mickeys dying, coming back, and — eventually — discovering one another’s existence to potentially catastrophic effect… what more could you want?”

Omni Loop, Bernardo Britto’s Kaufman-esque time travel movie, puts a new spin on the old Groundhog Day trope of a repeated existence.
“Before multiverse stories sprung up to take their place, time travel was the trope du jour for lo-fi science fiction. That means that, like Zoya, we’ve probably seen it all before — and Omni Loop strives to cut through the sort of table-setting that’s since become a bit tedious for students of the genre.

Don’t knock CBS’ Matlock reboot! It’s got more going for it than you might think.
“CBS’s update of Matlock, a new courtroom drama from Jane The Virgin creator Jennie Snyder Urman, has more on offer than just nostalgia.

It also has an ace-in-the-hole in Oscar-winner Kathy Bates, who stars as Madeline ‘Matty’ Matlock.”

“Gavin’s My Therapist is Dying, a hilarious yet arresting hour of narrative-driven comedy, was one of the hottest tickets at the Fringe, where it sold out. Extra shows were added and those sold out too. The show chronicles how an anxiety-ridden Gavin deals with finding out her long-time therapist has been diagnosed with cancer.”
