For a sci-fi dystopian thriller about dark secrets and not being able to conceal your inner-most thoughts—and hide, you know, secrets— Lionsgate’s “Chaos Walking” is extremely uninspired and even unimaginative.

The Midnight Sky is a big science fiction film from Netflix that feels all too relatable in telling a human story of survival as humans try to leave planet Earth after it has been rendered uninhabitable by an undisclosed, self-inflicted apocalyptic event.

George Clooney has a gregarious, outsized personality, especially in his acting, but he’s more thoughtful and introspective than you’d think and a lot of that side of him comes out in his filmmaking. Take “The Midnight Sky,” his latest directorial effort which is a sad, lonely, and bleak look at the apocalypse, but also the stars and hope for mankind.

It is a canny move for a movie that pivots around an apocalyptic disaster, and one that pays off at times by refocusing the story from the spectacle of loss to its rending emotional reality.

Murder mysteries are back in style, after the success of star-studded adaptations like “Murder on the Orient Express,” and original whodunnits like “Knives Out.” The latest film to join the club is the as-of-now untitled murder mystery by Searchlight Pictures which will star Saoirse Ronan, Sam Rockwell, and David Oyelowo.

As it pertains to Hollywood, “vote brigading” — which can also be referred to as “vote stuffing,”“dislike mobs” and “review bombing” among other monikers — is the practice of augmentinguser-generated ratings and reviews to influence the perception of a film, television series or othercontent. For the better part of the past decade, the practice has impacted Hollywood projects,including Marvel movies, Oscar winners and indie features alike.

For all his extroverted personality as an affable mensch, George Clooney, is no stranger to working in a minor key. Nor is he alien to the ideas of moody space films (“Solaris“), art movies (“The American“), or films with an introspective bent.
