On The Big Screen

DIGGER
R
“Digger” may be a Tom Cruise movie to some, but those of us who love Alejandro González Iñárritu’s wonderful, Oscar-winning films like “The Revenant” and “Birdman” know it’s more about him than Cruise. This one is a satire about the richest man in the world, who’s instigated a series of moves that seem about to destroy the whole world. Iñárritu wrote, produced and directed this disturbing yet funny film, and added an all-star cast of Riz Ahmed, Sandra Hüller, John Goodman and Jesse Plemons.

STREET FIGHTER
PG-13
Part martial-arts action flick, part goofy comedy and all a reboot of the “Street Fighter” video game whose first iteration was the 1994 film of the same name, this one stars Jason Momoa, Andrew Koji, Noah Centineo, Mel Jarnson and 50 Cent as martial artists who have to solve a mystery as they train to compete in a worldwide tournament. If you love the game, this one’s built just for you.

WICKER
R
Women across America already know about “Wicker”; just search it on social media and you’ll learn that Wicker parties are already in the works for opening day! It stars Olivia Colman as a feisty middle-aged fisherwoman who cannot find a decent man, so she has a basketmaker (Peter Dinklage) weave her one out of wicker. When he comes to life (as Alexander Skarsgaard), that’s when the fun begins. Get in line now!

FJORD
Not yet rated
Winner of the top prize at the 2026 Cannes Film Festival, “Fjord” unspools a darkly unsettling story of a Romanian family that immigrates to Norway, encountering prejudice and worse along the way. Based on a real story, this fictionalized version stars Oscar nominees Sebastian Stan and Renate Reinsve as the parents whose private lives are ripped open as the story progresses. Is there a crime happening inside the family? Watch and find out.

THE SOCIAL RECKONING
R
Writer-director Aaron Sorkin returns years later to “The Social Network” saga that won him an Academy Award, as he explored college student Marc Zuckerberg’s rise to power with Facebook. Now, like in real life, Zuckerberg is older, more powerful than ever and in this story, is accused of using Facebook to spread misinformation geared at teenage users. This is Sorkin’s look at the 2021 whistleblower and the Wall Street Journal reporter who broke the story (played by Oscar winner Mikey Madison and Emmy winner Jeremy Allen White); you’ll need to decide if crimes were committed.
