‘The Accountant 2’ (2025)

Ben Affleck’s enigmatic number-cruncher returns in ‘The Accountant 2’, pulling audiences back into a world where spreadsheets meet sharpshooting. This follow-up doubles down on sleek set pieces and cat-and-mouse intrigue as Christian Wolff’s skill set gets tested by new enemies and old ghosts.

Fans who loved the original’s blend of cerebral problem-solving and bone-rattling action will find more to savor here. It’s polished, propulsive, and engineered to scratch that “elite operator with a secret” itch that keeps couch critics theorizing long after the credits roll.

‘The Super Mario Bros. Movie’ (2023)

‘The Super Mario Bros. Movie’ continues to be a family-night juggernaut: bright, brisk, and bursting with Easter eggs from the Mushroom Kingdom. It zips from Brooklyn plumbing gigs to rainbow-road chaos with breezy confidence and a lovable ensemble of heroes and villains.

Kids get the slapstick and spectacle, while longtime fans enjoy a lovingly modernized spin on platform-hopping nostalgia. If you want a fun, all-ages crowd-pleaser that doesn’t overstay its welcome, this one still levels up the living room.

‘Killer Elite’ (2011)

A globetrotting hit-man thriller with steely charm, ‘Killer Elite’ pairs hard-nosed professionalism with bruising, boots-on-the-ground action. The hook is irresistible: a retired operative is dragged back in for one last, morally thorny mission that spirals into duels of strategy and stamina.

It’s all about tense showdowns, tight escapes, and the clash between codes of honor in a dirty business. If your perfect Friday night involves tactical cat-and-mouse and old-school tough-guy energy, queue this up.

‘Sabotage’ (2014)

Dirty money, dirtier secrets—’Sabotage’ drops you into a DEA task force where loyalty is a luxury and everyone’s on edge. The film marries bruising gunfights with a whodunit pulse, as the squad starts turning on itself after a high-stakes raid.

Come for the relentless momentum; stay for the grimy atmosphere and the “trust no one” psychology. It’s a swaggering, hard-charging ride that doesn’t flinch when things get messy.

‘Wicked’ (2024)

Emerald City shines in ‘Wicked’, a lavish musical that reframes the land of ‘The Wizard of Oz’ through the unlikely friendship of Elphaba and Glinda. Spectacle is the name of the game—soaring vocals, choreography with pop sparkle, and set pieces that gleam like a gemstone.

Yet beneath the glow is a story about perception, power, and who gets to write history. Whether you’re a devotee of the stage phenomenon or walking in fresh, it’s a transportive, big-hearted experience.

‘Heads of State’ (2024)

‘Heads of State’ delivers buddy-action fireworks with a diplomatic twist, mashing up political chaos and globe-trotting mayhem. Two heavy hitters with clashing styles are forced to team up, and the result is a barrage of banter, brawls, and increasingly explosive set pieces.

It’s breezy, brawny entertainment—the kind of streaming nightcap that pairs perfectly with snacks and a couch. Expect punchlines, pileups, and precisely the kind of chemistry that keeps you grinning through the dust.

‘Uncharted’ (2022)

Part treasure hunt, part swashbuckling comedy, ‘Uncharted’ spins a new cinematic take on Nathan Drake’s first big score. Think bar-room brawls, audacious heists, and airborne stunts that flirt with the impossible, all stitched together with wisecracks and double-crosses.

It’s a glossy adventure built for popcorn and big imaginations. If you want globe-spanning puzzles with a wink and a grin, this one scratches the itch.

‘Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes’ (2024)

‘Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes’ expands the saga with a daring leap forward, exploring shifting alliances and the fragile balance between species. The filmmaking is muscular and majestic—towering vistas, meticulous world-building, and action that roars with primal intensity.

What really lands, though, is the story’s empathy. It grapples with legacy, leadership, and the cost of survival, proving the franchise still has plenty to say—and spectacle to spare.

‘War of the Worlds’ (2025)

Martian terror gets a modern jolt in ‘War of the Worlds’, a fresh spin on the classic invasion nightmare. From first contact to full-blown catastrophe, it trades in dread, disorientation, and the grim scramble to keep loved ones safe when the sky turns hostile.

It’s survival storytelling at its starkest, folding human resilience into the thunder of collapsing cities and eerie extraterrestrial menace. If you crave white-knuckle sci-fi with a doom-laden pulse, this delivers.

‘The Pickup’ (2025)

Sleek, snappy, and delightfully slippery, ‘The Pickup’ is a heist-capper that lives for twists. A seemingly simple job unspools into a labyrinth of double-deals and quick-witted improvisation, the kind of plot where every detail might be a setup for the next surprise.

The charm is in the ensemble chemistry and the pace—light on its feet, always two moves ahead. For viewers who love stylish schemes and cheeky reversals, it’s the week’s most irresistible play.
