The summer movie season includes two separate Marvel movies, but those aren't the only films worth checking out.
The summer movie season is always one of high points of the movie year. It’s a season dominated by blockbusters, and following a couple of quieter years in 2020 and 2021, tentpole movies are back with a vengeance this year. Marvel fans have two different movies to look forward to, and there’s also a long-awaited Top Gun sequel in the hopper.
Downton Abbey: A New Era 7.4/10 125m Genre Drama, History, Romance Stars Hugh Bonneville, Maggie Smith, Jim Carter Directed by Simon Curtis Read more What’s it about: The Crawley family travels to France to uncover a mystery from the past. Who will love it: A24 horror fans, the growing legion of people who know how great Jessie Buckley is, and fans of Alex Garland’s existential horror vibes.
Who will love it: Lovers of late-period Tom Cruise flicks like the Mission: Impossible franchise. Top Gun fans, and those who like unnecessary sequels to ’80s hits . Lightyear Trailer Genre Animation, Science Fiction, Adventure, Family, Action, Comedy Stars Chris Evans, Keke Palmer, Dale Soules Directed by Angus MacLane watch on the big screen watch on the big screen Read more What’s it about: Buzz Lightyear sets off on an intergalactic mission with a robo sidekick and some roughshod recruits.
Who will love it: Baz Luhrmann die-hards, Elvis fans, and people who like it when Tom Hanks does a strange accent. Preview: A small-scale YA romance, Press Play could be a worthy addition to the genre or another entry that largely falls by the wayside. Telling the story of a boy and a girl who love each other and bond over their shared interest in music, the film takes a sci-fi turn when the girl discovers that she can save her boyfriend by traveling back in time through her mixtape.
Preview: The minions continue to be a genuine phenomenon among small children, and until that stops, we’re going to keep getting more movies featuring the small, yellow characters and their leader, Gru. Steve Carrell has managed to turn in some pretty wonderful performances in this role, but The Rise of Gru is likely to be dominated by the minions. These movies used to be called Despicable Me, but now, they’re called Minions, and there’s a reason for that.
Where the Crawdads Sing Trailer Genre Drama, Mystery Stars Daisy Edgar-Jones, Harris Dickinson, David Strathairn Directed by Olivia Newman watch on the big screen watch on the big screen Read more What’s it about: A woman who raised herself in the North Carolina marshes becomes a suspect in a local murder.Preview: Based on a best-seller of the same name, Where the Crawdads Sing is the kind of literary adaptation that we get one or two of basically every year.
DC League of Super-Pets Trailer Genre Action, Animation, Comedy, Family Stars Dwayne Johnson, Kevin Hart, John Krasinski Directed by Jared Stern watch on the big screen watch on the big screen Read more What’s it about: Krypto the Superdog must assemble a group of super pets to save the Justice League.

Director Addison Heimann is making his debut, and it seems that Hypochondriac is a promising first at-bat.
Bodies Bodies Bodies Trailer 82 % 6.4/10 95m Genre Horror, Thriller, Comedy Stars Amandla Stenberg, Maria Bakalova, Rachel Sennott Directed by Halina Reijn watch on the big screen watch on the big screen Read more What’s it about: A group of friends reunite in a secluded mansion, and discover that one of them has committed a murder.
