‘John Wick: Chapter 4’

Keanu Reeves stars in a three-hour action epic that's like a spaghetti western meets John Woo as seen in Times Square.
‘Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves’

The role-playing fantasy game becomes an irresistible mash-up of everything it inspired.
‘Scream VI’

Set in New York City, the sequel to the requel is a gory homicidal shell game that's clever in all the right ways.
‘Creed III’

In a sports drama that feels like a thriller, Jonathan Majors proves his mettle as Adonis' ominous friend-turned-boxing-foe.

‘UnPrisoned’

Kerry Washington's back to the angle that suits her best — and at the heart of a sweetly intended show of disarming quality.
‘School Spirits’

'School Spirits' manages to be surprisingly sparky and fun.
‘True Lies’

The scenes are slick, the action is fast and the outcomes are predictable. In other words, it's fine — but there's nothing new.
‘Daisy Jones & the Six’

'Daisy Jones & the Six' is a flawed but compelling adaptation of Taylor Jenkins Reid's 2019 novel of the same name.

Drake’s ‘Her Loss’

Drake is back on his game with "Her Loss," which has levity where the last album had sulking. 21 Savage is employed far less often but makes for an edgy, strategic foil.
Taylor Swift’s ‘Midnights’

Taylor Swift's "Midnights" is a pendulum swing away from "Folklore" and "Evermore," in trading acoustic instruments for electronic ones, but it feels like their continuation, in sheer intimacy terms.
Muni Love’s ‘Public Displays of Affection’

Megan Thee Stallion's "Traumazine" goes lighter on her trademark sensuality and humor as it deals with well-known career and personal drama.
Noah Cyrus’ ‘The Hardest Part’

Six years after the release of "Lemonade," pop icon Beyoncé has come through again with the sticky, sweaty, hedonistic "Renaissance."

‘The Piano Lesson’

Samuel L. Jackson, John David Washington and Danielle Brooks lead the cast of "The Piano Lesson," August Wilson's story of a family haunted by ghosts of the past.
‘Funny Girl’

Lea Michele gives this 'Funny Girl' what the revival previously lacked: charisma, astonishing vocals and assuredness — not to mention a killer fan base.
‘The Devil Wears Prada’

"Devil Wears Prada," the Broadway-bound new musical, now premiering in Chicago, needs to take a cue from Miranda Priestly and get meaner.
‘The Kite Runner’

Starring Amir Arison, this stage adaptation of Khaled Hosseini's novel is a heartbreaker -- but so uplifting, it's worth the pain.
