OPENING FRIDAY
SICARIO — DAY OF THE SOLDADO: Josh Brolin and Benicio Del Toro return in this sequel to the film as the drug war on the U.S.-Mexico border escalates, with the cartels trafficking terrorists across the U.S. border, causing federal agent Matt Graver to re-team with the hitman Alejandro. (R for strong violence, bloody images, and language) https://www.soldado.movie/#home
UNCLE DREW: Desperate to win the Rucker Classic street ball tournament and the cash prize, Dax (Lil Rel Howery) stumbles upon the legendary Uncle Drew (NBA All-Star Kyrie Irving) and convinces him to return to the court one more time. Along with Tiffany Haddish, J. B. Smoove and Mike Epps, the movie also stars former NBA players Shaquille O’Neal, Chris Webber, Reggie Miller and Nate Robinson, and former WNBA player Lisa Leslie. (PG-13 for suggestive material, language and brief nudity) https://www.uncledrew.movie
OPENING WEDNESDAY
THE FIRST PURGE: In this prequel, the New Founding Fathers of America test a sociological theory that vents aggression for one night in one isolated community to push the crime rate below 1 percent for the rest of the year. Somehow this stars Oscar winner and three-time nominee Marisa Tomei. (R for strong disturbing violence throughout, pervasive language, some sexuality and drug use) https://www.thefirstpurge.com
