Is God Is (2026)

Twin sisters, each disfigured in their own way, are quested by their dying mother to seek out the man who made them this way. It's an old fashioned revenge story paved with quirky characters and oddball sensibilities on their journey to self-discovery. It's so much better than I expected going into it.

Glass Onion (2022)

Rian Johnson follows up the successful Knives Out with another Benoit Blanc murder mystery that feels drastically different from the first. Taking place on a remote private island, it's a vacation mystery filled with high-tech gadgetry and hidden motives. Daniel Craig remains, but the rest of the cast changes, positioning him to become the next Hercule Poirot. It's an often convoluted puzzle box with the answers hidden in plain sight, which might detract from some of its thrills, but it's still worth the cost for all its opulent splendor. Craig is so great in the role, it might be the part he's remembered for over Bond.
