Let\u2019s see if any are worth marking down on your calendar.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHustle\u201d (June 8)<\/p>\n<p>Adam Sandler never stops working, be it on goofy man-child comedies or more sobering tales like his 2020 film \u201cUncut Gems.\u201d This Netflix original leans in the latter direction, casting him as a sports scout who stumbles upon an unlikely athlete who could be a star, assuming he can escape his closet\u2019s skeletons.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJurassic World Dominion\u201d (June 10)<\/p>\n<p>The third film in the second \u201cJurassic\u201d trilogy reunites the new cast (Chris Pratt, Bryce Dallas Howard) with the original trio (Jeff Goldblum, Laura Dern and Sam Neill). Nostalgia, along with the enduring spectacle of CGI raptors screeching across the screen, should make this movie a safe bet for a worthy summer escape.<\/p>\n<p>One caveat: Early marketing for the film promotes the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodintoto.com\/jurassic-world-dominion-woke-blockbuster\/\">sequel\u2019s woke bona fides<\/a>. Will that be obvious to movie goers, or is that a figment of the progressive stars\u2019 imagination? We\u2019ll soon find out.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTerror on the Prairie\u201d (June 14)<\/p>\n<p>Gina Carano is officially uncanceled this Summer. The MMA star and \u201cMandalorian\u201d alum leads a powerful cast in this old-school western from Daily Wire. Carano plays a frontier woman in the cross hairs of an outlaw mob featuring Nick Searcy and rising comic star Tyler Fischer.<\/p>\n<p>The Daily Wire original offers another example of a strong female character unburdened by woke theatrics.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOfficial Competition\u201d (June 17)<\/p>\n<p>This Spanish language farce follows elitist filmmakers vying for festival glory with less than grand intentions. Penelope Cruz and Antonio Banderas star in a film cutting the artistic community down to size. How welcome.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLightyear\u201d (June 17)<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s hard not to notice Disney kicking original Buzz Lightyear voice artist Tim Allen to the curb for this prequel. Still, the Pixar magic is strong, and the \u201cToy Story\u201d franchise remains one of Hollywood\u2019s enduring treats. Chris Evans steps in for Allen, voicing the heroic astronaut who inspired the Buzz Lightyear toy seen in the \u201cToy\u201d series. Since this is a Disney production, audiences can expect a same-sex kiss in between the CGI wonders.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cElvis\u201d (June 24)<\/p>\n<p>He\u2019s ba-ack, but are today\u2019s audiences interested in the King of Rock anymore? We\u2019ll soon find out via director Baz Luhrmann\u2019s take on the musical legend, played by newcomer Austin Butler. Tom Hanks is on board as the enigmatic Colonel Tom Parker, but the spotlight belongs to the King. Early reviews suggest Luhrmann\u2019s razzle dazzle style (think \u201cMoulin Rouge\u201d and \u201cThe Great Gatsby\u201d) is a perfect match for the material. Plus, the story connects Presley\u2019s formative years with the black musicians who helped pave his way to superstardom.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMinions: The Rise of Gru\u201d (July 1)<\/p>\n<p>Remember the lovable yellow critters who stole 2010\u2019s \u201cDespicable Me?\u201d They\u2019re back, even though they\u2019ve long since worn out their creative welcome. The second film to focus on the babbling creatures incorporates a young, wannabe evil Gru (Steve Carell) into the mix. It\u2019s the furthest thing from Oscar bait, but it will do if parents need to employ an A\/C-controlled babysitter.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThor: Love and Thunder\u201d (July 8)<\/p>\n<p>The Marvel Cinematic Universe ain\u2019t what it used to be, but the mind behind \u201cThor: Ragnarok\u201d could deliver a welcome course correction. Writer\/director Taika Waititi is back, and his second \u201cThor\u201d film introduces Natalie Portman as a new superhero alongside Chris Hemsworth\u2019s God of Thunder. Will Waititi submit to the woke prime directive now guiding the MCU? Or can he set aside feminist lectures to do what he does best, deliver deliriously silly stories with plenty of panache? Christian Bale could be the game changer as a reportedly ferocious villain, Gorr the God Butcher.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNope\u201d (July 22)<\/p>\n<p>Comic turned auteur Jordan Peele\u2019s third film comes with plenty of mystery and few details. \u201cGet Out\u201d returnee Daniel Kaluuya stars in a tale set at a horse ranch where mysterious forces threaten the locals. Peele is like a progressive M. Night Shyamalan, a director whose work evokes plenty of interest, sight unseen. His 2017 breakout \u201cGet Out\u201d leavened the messaging with sharp thrills and intrigue. Can he repeat that formula with \u201cNope?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBullet Train\u201d (August 5)<\/p>\n<p>Oscar-winner Brad Pitt plays one of five assassins traveling aboard a Japanese train, each unaware that their missions will overlap in surprising fashion. Director David Leitch of \u201cDeadpool 2\u201d can corral an action scene better than most of his peers, and the film\u2019s<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Summer doesn\u2019t officially start until June 21, but don\u2019t tell that to Doctor Strange and Tom Cruise.
