Next Week in Tickets: Films playing Boston 23 June 2023 - 29 June 2023

23Jun2023

Last week, the studios had a couple big movies not meet expectations, but the big release this week is a tweener that targets boutique houses as well as multiplexes, so there's a bit of room for weird stuff to opportunistically squeeze through. That...

Film Rolls, Round 16: X Y & Zee and A Reason to Live, a Reason to Die

22Jun2023

When "season two" happens post-Fantasia, I'm going to make a much more earnest attempt to keep up with what the score is rather than just calculating it as I do the posts. Or maybe at least do the posts much more quickly, so that I know th...

16Jun2023

This is probably the average weekend when school gets out, but it doesn't look like theaters' hours are expanding on top of there being more stuff coming out. The first of three DC Universe films coming out this year, The Flash, plays The Capitol,...

Film Rolls, Round 15: (De Niro + De Palma) x 4 and House of Cards

13Jun2023

Since there's (currently) a five-month lag between me doing this and me writing it up,.I've been very curious to see just how this evens things out. Mookie with the 20! It's his second, and exceptionally fortuitous because it lands him on the box...

Next Week in Tickets: Films playing Boston 9 June 2023 - 15 June 2023

9Jun2023

This weekend is insane in terms of repertory stuff playing Boston on film, one of the biggest "don't you people talk to each other? How am I supposed to watch all this?" line-ups in recent memory. IFFBoston Closing Night film Past Lives o...

2Jun2023

Well, apparently the place at South Bay is open again. Wonder what that was about! (And now there's no showtimes listed for the Imax screen at Assembly Row. Weird!) The week's big opening is Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, the first half of...

Next Week in Tickets: Films playing Boston 26 May 2023 - 1 June 2023

26May2023

Looking at what could be a busier week than what my AMC membership can handle and thinking, are we going to try MoviePass 4.0 (or whatever)? Do we trust it? Oh, and in disappointing news given it's a holiday weekend, the multiplex at South Bay seem...

Next Week in Tickets: Films playing Boston 19 May 2023 - 25 May 2023

19May2023

Not saying the ten days I was on vacation is the longest is the longest I've gone without seeing a movie in years, but it was a fun week. Fortunately, catching up won't be as hard as it could be, because we're entering the "one big release and...

Next Week in Tickets: Films playing Boston 12 May 2023 - 18 May 2023

12May2023

Still on vacation as I write this, but coming back soon with a fair amount to catch up on in this week-between-blockbusters. The counterprogramming is Book Club: The Next Chapter, which reunites Diane Keaton, Jane Fonda, Candice Bergen, and Mary Ste...

Next Week in Tickets: Films playing Boston 5 May 2023 - 11 May 2023

5May2023

Tempted to not do this this week, since I'm out of town and the big opening is huge, but I want to know what to catch up on later. That big release would be Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 3, billed as a finale to the trilogy with James Gunn heading...

Next Week in Tickets: Films playing Boston 28 April 2023 - 4 May 2023

28Apr2023

It's festival week, so pick your poison. Which may happen to be "what can maybe do something for a week or two before the big Marvel movie wipes things out". Independent Film Festival 2023 keeps going on, having all three screens at the S...

Say I Do to Me

24Apr2023

Huh, just two weeks after the last Chinese movie about social media deception to arrive in Boston months after playing its native territory, but with only crappy showtimes. I half-wonder if someone at AMC's booking department looked at the surprisin...

21Apr2023

Is it IFFBoston season already? Time is flying, and not just because I've probably overbooked myself for some stuff coming up. To answer the rhetorical question first, yes, Independent Film Festival 2023, the twentieth annual event (give or take a...

Suzume, and Makoto Shinkai becoming the one of biggest names in anime

16Apr2023

I mentioned in the "Next Week" post that it's kind of crazy to me that Makoto Shinkai is such a big deal now. I saw The Place Promised in Our Early Years at the first Fantasia festival I attended, and "Voices of a Distant Star" s...
