What a weekend we have ahead of us. This weekend is the best kind of grab-bag, with each subsequent entry in this week’s list bearing little similarity to the last. We’ve got a mini-Barbenheimer here with Saw X and the new PAW Patrol movie. It’s called, you guessed it, “SAW [...]
This weekend goes out to the Latinos in a major way. Seriously, all five of the movies we’re highlighting this weekend were made by, for, about or in collaboration with at least one notable Latino celebrity. In most cases, though, it’s a lot more. We have a documentary about one [...]
Since his initial foray into the realm of biographical films with 2014’s Million Dollar Arm, the true story of an American sports agent who turned two exceptionally talented cricket bowlers into Major League Baseball pitchers, director Craig Gillespie has made it his mission to reinvent the biopic. After getting his [...]
It’s another big week for horror and Latinos! Everywhere you look it’s jump scares and English subtitles. Thankfully, if you’re already feeling burnt out by the end of summer, you won’t have to leave your house to watch most of these movies. Between Netflix and Amazon Prime alone there’s a [...]
Last year, when LATINA interviewed Mo Amer, a Palestinian-born comedian whose family settled in Houston when he was just nine years old, he said there are three art forms that are indigenous to the United States: jazz, stand-up comedy and hip-hop.

If you’re Latino, love horror movies, sequels, or movies in general, this is going to be a pretty great week (especially if you live in New York). There is no shortage of interesting new offerings this weekend and just about all of them look like must-sees for any diehard movie [...]
The first weekend of September is full of blood, guts, and gore. All five films we’re highlighting this weekend are pretty brutal affairs. We have the Denzel Washington-led Equalizer threequel, a bloody spoof of high school comedies, and two ultraviolent, indie horror films that are most definitely not for the [...]
Well, that’s a wrap, folks. The temperature is starting to drop, the kids are back in school, and we’ve reached the end of the summer movie season. Despite a handful of pretty spectacular bombs, 2023 is on track to be the highest-grossing year at the movies since 2019 (because we [...]
Despite their mercifully short titles, this weekend’s high-profile releases are kind of a big deal. On one end you have a relatively obscure DC hero, Blue Beetle, making his big-screen debut with an all-Latino cast. On the other, we’ve got an R-rated “animated” comedy with a name brand cast that [...]
If you’re looking for one more dose of the summer movie season, a new Dracula origin story called The Last Voyage of the Demeter just might scratch that itch. Other than that, this weekend belongs to the indies. But don’t let that turn you off if low budget flicks aren’t [...]
