00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:01.200
- [Narrator] It's time for a quick look

2
00:00:01.200 --> 00:00:03.457
at how this week's film releases stack up.

3
00:00:03.457 --> 00:00:05.280
"Gigi & Nate" was not very well received

4
00:00:05.280 --> 00:00:07.057
by reviewer Luke Y.
Thompson, who writes that

5
00:00:07.057 --> 00:00:09.000
"Charlie Rowe and Allie
the Monkey are great

6
00:00:09.000 --> 00:00:10.590
but the 'God's Not Dead'-style plot

7
00:00:10.590 --> 00:00:12.060
leaves much to be desired."

8
00:00:12.060 --> 00:00:14.310
The monkey movie received a C-minus.

9
00:00:14.310 --> 00:00:15.870
Ian Spelling writes
that "while the premise

10
00:00:15.870 --> 00:00:17.370
of a great movie is buried somewhere

11
00:00:17.370 --> 00:00:20.100
around 'Burial', the finished
product is just okay."

12
00:00:20.100 --> 00:00:21.930
The movie tells the story of a small band

13
00:00:21.930 --> 00:00:23.460
of Russian soldiers tasked with delivering

14
00:00:23.460 --> 00:00:25.890
the remains of Hitler
back to Stalin in Russia.

15
00:00:25.890 --> 00:00:27.450
The film received a C.

16
00:00:27.450 --> 00:00:28.807
The Ebo twins' mockumentary

17
00:00:28.807 --> 00:00:30.480
"Honk for Jesus. Save Your Soul."

18
00:00:30.480 --> 00:00:32.640
was well received by
reviewer Leigh Monson.

19
00:00:32.640 --> 00:00:34.500
He praises writer/director Adamma Ebo

20
00:00:34.500 --> 00:00:36.750
for delivering a skillful
satire on the hypocrisy

21
00:00:36.750 --> 00:00:39.240
and empty moral coffers
of prosperity gospel.

22
00:00:39.240 --> 00:00:40.590
The film received a B.

23
00:00:40.590 --> 00:00:43.470
Mark Steven Johnson's rom com
"Love In The Villa" was met

24
00:00:43.470 --> 00:00:45.210
with a surprisingly warm reception

25
00:00:45.210 --> 00:00:46.890
from critic Ian Spelling who praised

26
00:00:46.890 --> 00:00:49.020
the chemistry between Kat
Graham and Tom Hopper.

27
00:00:49.020 --> 00:00:50.497
The film received a B.

28
00:00:50.497 --> 00:00:53.010
"Spider-Man: No Way Home"
has been re-released

29
00:00:53.010 --> 00:00:54.060
with an extended cut.

30
00:00:54.060 --> 00:00:55.620
The pickings are pretty slim this week,

31
00:00:55.620 --> 00:00:58.650
so Marvel's most recent
Spider-Man movie is your best bet.

32
00:00:58.650 --> 00:01:01.140
The AV club gave the Tom Holland film a B

33
00:01:01.140 --> 00:01:04.353
when it was originally
released at the end of 2021.

34
00:01:04.353 --> 00:01:06.936
(upbeat music)
