Lots of movies this week on the show. 11 of them to be precise with full reviews from Erik Childress and Steve Prokopy. Steve flies solo with Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan back in the wrong bodies (Freakier Friday) plus a new serial killer thriller (Strange Harvest) and a documentary focusing on the fandom of Eminem (Stans). Erik looks at a story of young sisters trying to avoid being separated after their mom dies (What We Hide). There’s an actual music documentary about an artist taken too soon (It’s Never Over, Jeff Buckley) and another pending paternal anxiety with a sci-fi twist (Descendent). An all-star cast forms Kristen Scott-Thomas’ personal directorial debut (My Mother’s Wedding) and Eddie Murphy teams up with Pete Davidson for some armored truck action (The Pickup). A young girl’s drawings come to life causing havoc around town (Sketch). The pair catch up on the new reboot of a comedy classic (The Naked Gun) and finish off with the mysterious disappearance of children from the director of Barbarian (Weapons).
