Spike Lee returns with one of his most ambitious projects yet—a modern, hip-hop-infused reimagining of Akira Kurosawa’s classic High and Low. Denzel Washington stars as a wealthy music mogul whose world spirals out of control when he realizes his driver’s son—not his own—has been kidnapped.

If you’ve ever cringed your way through an awkward backyard barbecue, this one’s for you. Friendship is a comedy that stretches everyday suburban discomfort into 90 minutes of hilarious chaos. Paul Rudd leads the cast as the neighbor who’s a little too friendly, a little too perfect, and maybe a little too weird. Think of it as I Think You Should Leave on steroids—equal parts awkward and laugh-out-loud funny.

Sharks? Terrifying. Serial killers? Nightmare fuel. Combine the two and you get Dangerous Animals, a blood-soaked Australian thriller that’s as absurd as it is entertaining. Jai Courtney plays a deranged murderer who lures unsuspecting tourists to the coast, only for them to meet an aquatic demise. It’s campy, violent, and tailor-made for horror fans who love a late-night scare.
