Ghostbusters (2016)
Following a ghost invasion of Manhattan, paranormal enthusiasts Erin Gilbert and Abby Yates, nuclear engineer Jillian Holtzmann, and subway worker Patty Tolan band together to stop the otherworldly threat.
Director:Paul Feig |
| Watch Trailer Get Tickets |
The Buzz: Undoubtedly, the negative reaction to Ghostbusters' all-female principal cast will be one of the top entertainment news stories of the year, even if you (like us) don't know anyone who is outwardly against the crew comprised of Kristen Wiig, Melissa McCarthy, Leslie Jones, and Kate McKinnon. Who are these haters? Do they just live inside the internet? Hopefully the movie will be full of scares and laughs, and its worldwide box office haul will quell any apparent resistance to this revitalized franchise.

The Infiltrator (2016)
A U.S. Customs official uncovers a money laundering scheme involving Colombian drug lord Pablo Escobar.
Director:Brad Furman |
| Watch Trailer Get Tickets |
The Buzz: It would be easy to boil this story down to "Walter White takes on Pablo Escobar," but that shortcut would take away from the remarkable job Bryan Cranston has done in living up to the legacy of "Breaking Bad." From what we understand, it would also not give enough credit to the latest movie from director Brad Furman (The Lincoln Lawyer), who finds plenty of ways to distinguish this true-life take on the war against the Medellín cartel.

Café Society (2016) - [Limited]
Set in the 1930s, a young Bronx native moves to Hollywood where he falls in love with the secretary of his powerful uncle, an agent to the stars. After returning to New York he is swept up in the vibrant world of high society nightclub life.
Director:Woody Allen |
| Watch Trailer |
The Buzz: After the box-office disappointment that was Hail, Caesar!, let's see if older audiences are in the mood for Woody Allen's take on a period Hollywood comedy. Reportedly beautiful to look act, acting-wise, we hear Kristen Stewart walks away with the film (unsurprisingly). Though the real winner might be Blake Lively, who turns in a supporting role here while her thriller The Shallows becomes the sleeper hit of the season.

Equals (2015) - [Limited]
In an emotionless utopia, two people fall in love when they regain their feelings from a mysterious disease, causing tensions between them and their society.
Director:Drake Doremus |
| Watch Trailer |
The Buzz: We felt a chill the first time we watched the Equals trailer but were intrigued by the world Drake Doremus had built; unfortunately, the reviews aren't as supportive of the filmmaker's vision, though it's clear that most people who've seen the future-set love story say it's gorgeously shot and well-acted. Perhaps it's best to say this is for Kristen Stewart completists only.

Phantom Boy (2015) - [Limited]
A super-powered boy helps a wheelchair-bound policeman in his attempt to bring down a mob kingpin.
|
| Watch Trailer |
The Buzz: Oscar-nominated filmmakers Loup Felicioli & Alain Gagnol (A Cat in Paris) turned to classic gangster tales from the 1940s and 50s for their latest work.

Undrafted (2016) - [Limited]- Comedy | Drama | Family | Sport
When twelve ragtag teammates set out to play what should be a meaningless summer intramural baseball game, it ends up becoming the most important game of their lives.
Director:Joseph Mazzello |
| Watch Trailer |
The Buzz: With its baseball premise and Tyler Hoechlin in its cast, this comedy could be seen as the dumber younger brother of Everybody Wants Some!!. It might also be funnier than Richard Linklater's most recent work, which left us underwhelmed, personally. Kudos to writer/director/co-star Joseph Mazzello for gathering up this team of TV star hunks.
