An Oscar-worthy lead performance, an animated, finicky feline on a quest, a decadent saga about early Hollywood and a sly mystery with a cast to die for are all on your holiday cinematic menu this week.Brendan Fraser’s phenomenal performance — one of the best of 2022 — elevates Darren Aronofsky’s heartfelt and emotional but sometimes overdone adaptation of Samuel D. Hunter’s brilliant stage play.
Better than the first delicious mystery, this sly bamboozler finds detective Benoit Blanc again investigating murders most foul. Annoying, full-of-himself tech titan initiates the backstabbing by inviting former chums/now frenemies to his lavish digs on a Greek island. With not-so-hidden secrets, beefs between friends and skimpy swimwear galore, the suspects disembark into an Agatha Christie-like mousetrap where dead bodies happen.
