A Quiet Place: Day One

 Rated: PG-13

Runtime: 1 hour 40 minutes

Release Date: June 28, 2024

Director: Michael Saronoski

Starring: Lupita Nyong'o, Joseph Quinn

    In this prequel to the 2018 film A Quiet Place, a new york woman named Sam (Nyong'o) is trapped in the big apple during the early days of an alien invasion where the aliens have ultrasonic hearing. This movie is pretty good, If you like the first two Quiet Place movies, you'll probably like this one. Parents, this is a pretty intense film like the first two ones. So if I were you, I'd click here before taking the kids. Now I would however, keep the little ones because they may get a little frightened by it. So if your kids are teens, they shouldn't have too much of a problem with it.

Final Grade:

A-

Inside Out 2

 Rated: PG

 Runtime: 1 hour 36 minutes

 Release Date: June 15, 2024

 Director: Kelsey Mann

 Featuring the voices of: Amy Poehler, Maya Hawke, Kensington Tallman

        This anticipated sequel to the 2015 animated film Inside Out, Riley is now a teenager and her mind headquarters is now making room for new emotions. Joy, Anger, Sadness, Fear, and disgust aren't sure how they feel when Anxiety, Embarrassment, Envy, and Ennui show up. This movie, is a good movie. It's been a long time since I've seen the first movie, so I can't say if this one is better than that one. But judging by it's own merits, I'd say right up there with say IF. There are at least a few good family-friendly movies coming out over the summer, and this is one of them. Parents, there are now at least three movies in theaters right now that I'd take the whole family to. Those movies are: This one, IF, and Garfield. they are all good movies.

Final Grade:

A+

The Watchers

Rated: PG-13

Runtime: 1 hour 42 minutes 

Release date: June 7, 2024

Director: Ishana Shyamalan 

Starring: Dakota Fanning, Georgina Campbell 

    This suspenseful thriller is about a young artist who gets stranded in a immaculate forest in Ireland, and gets trapped with three strangers after finding shelter. Meanwhile, all four of them are stalked each night by mysterious creatures known as The Watchers. This movie, is a fairly good movie. If your into suspenseful movies, and other movies like it, I recommend it. It is a really intense movie, and has a surprising twist toward the end. The only thing that I don't like about the movie, is that it's one of those movies where you expect it to end two or three times. Parents, I don't recommend that you take the kids to this film, click here if you wanna know why.

Final Grade:

B
