The Buzz: Who doesn't love watching a cat video on the internet? But stretching out the idea into a 100-minute comedy seems like a risky prospect no matter who you are, so that's why we hope one of our favorite comedy duos, Jordan Peele and the suddenly everywhere Keegan-Michael Key, don't miss the mark with their first project since they consciously uncoupled from their successful TV show last year.

The Buzz: Garry Marshall is back with another ensemble holiday movie. It's a subgenre that tends to alienate everyone but its core audience though this particular one, which features a nearly all white cast and Julia Roberts in a memorable wig, will probably become a perennial at-home favorite. Looks at Jason Sudeikis on the poster; he's grinding his teeth.

The Buzz: Veteran indie producer Bob Yari takes a second turn behind the camera to direct this sturdy-looking biography of Ernest Hemingway's friendship with journalist Ed Meyers.

The Buzz: Now that drag has fully come into the mainstream here in the U.S., what a better time to get a look at a culture where it's a little less easy for a man to teeter outside his door in a pair of heels? With senses of humor and drama that bring Almodóvar to mind, Irish director Paddy Breathnach dove into a Cuban subculture and emerged with a film that made the shortlist for the Best Foreign Language Oscar last year. - Arno
