JEN: TIME TO LOOK AT WHAT'S NEW IN THEATERS THIS WEEKEND.
OUR FILM CRITIC LAUREN VENIZIANI IS HERE WITH REVIEWS.
WE'LL START WITH AN AMAZON FAVORITE.
YOU ARE DRESSED TO IMPRESS.
>> THE MARVELOUS MRS. MAZEL.
ALL EPISODES ARE AVAILABLE ON PRIME VIDEO.
WE'RE OBSESSED WITH TALKING ABOUT MOVIES AND TV.
JEN: WE LOVE THIS SERIES.
IT'S LIKE EATING CANDY.
>> THE MARVELOUS MS. MAZE MAISEL, A HOUSEWIFE IN THE 1950S, A JEWISH HOUSEWIFE, GOT A SURPRISING DIVORCE.
NOW, IN SEASON TWO, SHE, INSTEAD OF LIKE SHE'S KIND OF SETTLED INTO HER NEW LIFE BEING A RECENTLY SEPARATED WOMAN.
BUT SHE'S GETTING INTO MORE OF HER STANDUP COMEDY AND PUSHING TOWARDS HER CAREER.
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING FILM.
THE CREATORS OF "GILMORE GIRLS" DID THIS.
I LOVE HER QUICK WIT.
I DON'T THINK I WOULD BE ABLE TO TALK THAT FAST.
I DON'T KNOW HOW SHE DOES IT.
ZACHARY LEVI IS NEW THIS SEASON.
I LOVE HIM ON THE SHOW.
IF I HAD TO RATE IT, I WOULD GIVE IT A 5 OUT OF 5.
ONE OF MY FAVORITE SHOWS.
LOVED SEASON 1.
THIS SEASON IS PROBABLY EVEN A LITTLE BIT BETTER.
JEN: I THINK IT IS TOO.
>> JEN HAS TO FINISH SO I'M NOT GOING TO SPOIL ANYTHING.
JEN: THREE MORE EPISODES AND WE'LL TALK.
>> HIGHLY RECOMMEND STREAMING ON AMAZON.
JEN: YOU SAW A FEW THINGS IN THEATERS.
>> THE FAVOURITE IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE FILMS OF THE YEAR.
I SEE A LOT OF PERIOD DURHAM MASS.
A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE LIKE I'VE SEEN FILMS LIKE THIS.
I'M NOT INTERESTED.
YOU SHOULD BE INTERESTED IN THIS FILM.
IT'S 18th CENTURY EARNING LAND AND IT'S ON A SAD QUEEN ANNE WE SEE PLAYED BY OLIVIA COLEMAN.
SHELIES ON HER NUMBER ONE LADY UNTIL A YOUNG NEW LADY, ABIGAIL, WHO WE SEE HERE, PLAYED BY EMMA STONE, COMES INTO THE PICTURE.
THESE TWO WOMEN START COMPETING HEAVILY FOR THE QUEEN'S AFFECTIONS.
I WILL SAY IT IS A PERIOD DRAMA.
IT'S ALSO VERY FUNNY.
IT'S HORRIFYING AT TIMES, THE SINNING TO RAEF IS BEAUTIFUL, THE MAKEUP IS AMAZING.
THE SCORE IS STUNNING.
THESE THREE WOMEN GIVE SOME OF THE BEST PERFORMANCES OF THE YEAR.
IT'S FROM THE DIRECTOR OF THE LOBSTER AND THE KILLING OF A SACRED DEER.
KIND OF A CRAZY JUMP FOR HIM TO DO A FILM LIKE THIS.
I LOVED IT.
GIVING IT A 5 OUT OF 5.
GOING TO BE A BIG OSCAR CONTENDER.
JEN: THEN ROMA COULD RIVAL A STAR IS BORN.
>> IT'S AVAILABLE IN SELECT THEATERS THIS WEEKEND.
IT'S GOING TO BE STREAMING ON NETFLIX NEXT WEEK.
CHECK IT OUT THERE.
IT'S FROM A DIRECTOR WE KNOW FROM GRAVITY, CHILDREN OF MEN.
THIS STORY IS A VERY PERSONAL STORY FOR HIM.
IT'S KIND OF BASED ON HIS CHILDHOOD IN MEXICO CITY, MEXICO.
IT CENTERS ON A BELOVED NANNY AND MADE, PLAYED BY HER FIRST EVER ACTING GIG IN HERE.
BUT IT'S A BEAUTIFUL BLACK AND WHITE FOREIGN LANGUAGE FILM.
YES, THERE ARE SUBTITLES, BUT THERE'S HONESTLY NOT TOO MUCH.
IT RELIES ON THE LONG TRACKING SHOTS.
DEFINITELY GOING TO BE UP FOR BEST PICTURE AND BEST FOREIGN LANGUAGE FILM THIS YEAR.
I REALLY LIKED THE FILM.
I DIDN'T ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT, LIKE MY HUSBAND DID.
BUT I'M GIVING ATE 4 OUT OF 5 STARS.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
DON'T BE TURNED OFF IT'S BLACK AND WHITE AND FOREIGN LANGUAGE.
IT'S A BEAUTIFUL STORY.
JEN: IF YOU WANT TO WATCH THINGS ON NETFLIX.
>> I SAW MOWGLI.
WARNER BROTHERS HAD IT, BUT IT'S STREAMING ON NETFLIX THIS WEEKEND FROM DIRECTOR ANDY CIRCUS WHO WANTED TO DO A DARKER JUNGLE BOOK.
IT'S DEFINITELY DARKER, KIND OF VIOLENT AT TIMES.
IT'S ON NETFLIX.
IF YOU WANT TO WATCH IT, YOU CAN FAST FORWARD SCARIER SCENES.
A LOT IS DONE THROUGH MOTION CAPTURE, MEANING CHRISTIAN BALE PLAYS BAGHEERA.
HE WAS ON SET ACTING AND YOU CAN SEE HIS EXPRESSION.
THE MOTION CAPTURE PERFORMANCES ARE AMAZING.
IT'S A REALLY BEAUTIFULLY DONE FILM.
I PREFER MY JUNGLE BOOKS WITH A LOT OF SINGING AND FUN.
IT WAS GOOD FOR NETFLIX.
I'M GIVING 3 OUT OF STIF STARS.
>> JENNIFER ANISTON PLAYS A HAS-BEEN BEAUTY QUEEN IN SECTION AS.
HER DAUGHTER IS OVERWEIGHT AND SHE'S TRYING TO GET INTO THE BEAUTY QUEEN PAGEANT WORLD.
HER DAUGHTER IS PLAYED BY DANIELLE McDONNELL, ONE OF MY NEW FAVORITE UP AND COMING ACTRESSES.
MY DAD AND I SAW IT.
I'M GIVING IT 4 OUT OF 5.
IF YOU LOVE DOLLY PARTON, YOU'LL LOVE THE MOVIE.
IT'S ALL DOLLY PARTON SONGS.
JEN: I DISAGREE, YOU CAN BE ON THE MARVELOUS MRS. MAISEL WITH HOW FAST YOU TALK.
