The Nest Jude Law is Rory, a hard charging financial speculator in the 1980s, who decides to pull up stakes with his wife Allison (Carrie Coon) and two children, moving from New York City to his native London. What is revealed is that he is nearly broke, and he’s using his remaining money to pretend he is wealthy to impress his new employers. This unintentionally starts a downward spiral for the whole family. In select theaters. 4.5/5 stars.
 Rating: 3.0/5.0 |
Antebellum The film features Veronica (singer Janelle Monáe), who is an author and activist. She is being followed by a shadowy group of people and ends up being abducted.
