Ready or not… the game has begun again!
Ready or Not 2: Here I Come succeeds thanks to the committed performances of Samara Weaving, Kathryn Newton, Sarah Michelle Gellar and Shawn Hatosy who all revel in the madness and wicked fun nature of the story, that combined with expanded lore surrounding the mystical Mr. Le Bail, helps to deliver a satisfying second game of hide and seek even if it never for a moment is as clever, brutal or twisted as the first film.
Are you ready to play a game with Ready or Not 2: Here I Come, opening exclusively in theatres tomorrow Friday, March 20, 2026

@G_Reelz The previous two Jumanji films survived against Star Wars, it will be fine and will hit the family audience

Oh forgot all about Jumanji opening the week before...

Neither #DunePartThree or #AvengersDoomsday — both opening on Dec. 18 — are expected to move release dates: • Exhibitors worry Sony’s “Jumanji 3,” set a week earlier on Dec. 11, will get crushed after its opening • Most assume there’s room for the two behemoths to co-exist given the box office popularity of the Christmas season “We’ve been desperate for all these years for volume,” says exhibitor Chris Randleman of FlixBrewhouse. “Here is volume. It’s the best-case scenario ever.” wp.me/pc8uak-1lH1Vz

#ReadyorNot2 Here I Come offers up another deadly game of hide and seek, and while it has some exciting moments and fun kills, it never recaptures the gleeful, twisted fun or shock value of the first film. Samara Weaving once again is great, delivering a truly badass final girl, while Kathryn Newton, Sarah Michelle Gellar and Shawn Hatosy are all excellent and highly entertaining additions to this world. The story expands the lore of Mr. Le Bail that sets the events of the sequel into motion, but this second game of hide and seek is never as inventive, shocking or clever as it needs to be to justify this sequel, which causes it to constantly live in the shadow of its predecessor… no matter how many individuals go boom!

Amaze amaze amaze!
Project Hail Mary is an astonishing cinematic achievement that features stunning cinematography and visual effects, but it is the heartfelt, tender and hilarious screenplay paired with the brilliant performance of Ryan Gosling that delivers the best film of the year so far!
Embark on an out of this world adventure as Grace and Rocky try to save the universe in Project Hail Mary, opening exclusively in theatres next Friday, March 20, 2026 with special engagements in 70mm and IMAX 70mm.
Based on the Novel by Andy Weir

#ProjectHailMary is just as magical, awe inspiring and thrilling on second viewing. A stunning experience in IMAX 70mm with @DANIELPEMBERTON ’s score soaring, Ryan Gosling’s pitch perfect lighting up the screen alongside James Ortiz’s Rocky, creating one of the most beautiful friendships in cinematic history. It’s more than just crowd pleasing, it’s a hopeful and healing science fiction epic that will have you laughing, crying and believing in the power of cinema once again!

English

Thank you @philiplord & @chrizmillr for this hopeful, awe inspiring and out of this world cinematic experience!
English

#ProjectHailMary is a true science fiction masterpiece! Directors Phil Lord and Christopher Miller and screenwriter Drew Goddard perfectly capture the heart and soul of Andy Weir’s novel, never sacrificing its infectious spirit in bringing to life the friendship of Grace and Rocky. The visual effects are stunning, Daniel Pemberton’s musical score soars to the heavens, and Sandra Hüller is exceptional as Stratt, all helping to deliver an emotional and out of this world epic, but it is the performance of Ryan Gosling that gives the film its magic as he has never been better. And its presentation in IMAX 70mm conjures up a jaw dropping cinematic experience, resulting in the best film of the year!
