Directed by Joe Wright, Cyrano comes to the movie theaters once again with a different perspective. With Darkest Hour, Anna Karenina, and Pride & Prejudice on his resume promise the new version of a classic story resplendent with songs and dancing will consume audiences.

Wright’s style envelops us in a symphony of emotions with music, beauty and romance. Cyrano reimagines the timeless tale of a heartbreaking love triangle. Cyrano de Bergerac, played by Peter Dinklage, a man ahead of his time, dazzles others with ferocious wordplay at a verbal joust or with exceptional swordplay in a duel.

Yet, convinced that his appearance renders him unworthy of the love of a devoted friend, the luminous Roxanne, played by Haley Bennett, Cyrano has not declared his feelings for her. And Roxanne has fallen in love with Christian, played by Kelvin Harrison, Jr.

Directed by Joel Crawford, The Croods: A New Age is a sequel to the 2013 film called The Croods. In the first movie, we meet the first family, The Croods, of the prehistoric era. The Oscar-nominated comedy is about a clan dealing with their changing world, which captivated global audiences, reminding us of the family’s timeless importance.

With the sequel, we get to see just how little we’ve evolved with an all-new adventure back in time with The Croods: A New Age. Returning stars Nicolas Cage, Emma Stone, Ryan Reynolds, Catherine Keener, Cloris Leachman, and Clark Duke welcome Leslie Mann and Peter Dinklage to the film’s cast as The Croods face their biggest threat since leaving the cave—another family.

“Angry Birds 2” Trailers, Clips & Posters

Directed by Thurop Van Orman, Angry Birds 2 looks cold and silly. The domestic movie trailer shows a conflict of sorts between tropical birds in paradise and a tundra bird being miserable.

Peter Ackerman wrote the screenplay, and the little dialogue I can hear in the movie trailer appears not for kids’ ears. The storyline is not clear. The sequel seems to have a bigger voice cast with new and returning talent.

The studio promises the flightless birds, and scheming green pigs take their beef to the next level. I doubt the movie will be as addicting as the app.

The movie entertains kids of all ages. The competition we see in the app happens on the screen. The more powerful birds get the accolades as seen in this movie trailer.
