A loaded week, including psychotic gay Franz Rogowski, one of the all-time great films about watching films, one of the all-time great films about going home and sleeping with your wife, the latest “looks great, why is the script like this?” opus from Gareth Edwards, the third most recent Hong Sang-soo movie, and the one they take the guys’ faces off. And then there’s what’ll probably be a big gift-seller for families with hopeless dorks, Five Nights at Freddy’s (I imagine Weird: The Al Yankovic Story will do well in that demographic too). I can’t speak to FNAF‘s source material but I certainly believe it works better in its original format than it does here, as an incomprehensible dead zone that’s one scene of stupid-looking slashing away from not being able to be called a horror movie. But if you’re looking to get your toddler into scary movies with one that even they won’t be frightened by, there’s nothing better.
