DC Film Girl gives us a look at what’s new in theaters this weekend
Box offices sold out over new summer films
Updated: 1:07 PM EDT Jul 29, 2023
NEW IN THEATERS THIS WEEKEND. AND OUR FILM CRITIC, LAUREN VENEZIANI IS JOINING US LIVE THIS MORNING.JOINING US LIVE HEY, LAUREN, GREAT TO SEE YOU. GOOD TO SEE YOU, TOO, JEN. I’M SURE YOU HAD THE BEST TIME IN OCEAN CITY, BUT NOW IT’S TIME FOR YOU TO GET BACK TO THE MOVIE THEATER. WELL, HAPPINESS FOR BEGINNERS INTERVIEW. WHO? WHAT IS THIS ABOUT? YES. BEFORE WE GET INTO HAPPINESS FOR BEGINNERS, THOUGH, THIS IS HONESTLY BEEN ONE OF THE MOST EXCITING TIMES FOR MOVIES AND LITERALLY YEARS. AS YOU KNOW, WE HAD BARB AND HEIMER LAST WEEKEND. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME IN A DECADE THAT TWO OPENING FILMS MADE OVER $80 MILLION EACH AT THE BOX OFFICE. BARBIE BECAME THE BIGGEST FILM AT THE BOX OFFICE FOR A FEMALE DIRECTOR, MAKING OVER $160 MILLION. IT’S GOING TO MAKE ANOTHER 88 MILLION THIS WEEKEND. AND OPPENHEIMER MADE OVER 80 MILLION AND IT’S STILL KILLING IT AT THE BOX OFFICE. MOVIE THEATERS HAVE BEEN SOLD OUT FOR SHOWINGS. IT HONESTLY JUST MAKES ME REALLY HAPPY THAT PEOPLE ARE EXCITED TO GO TO THE MOVIE THEATERS. THEY’RE BEING SOLD OUT, YOU KNOW, THROUGHOUT THE WEEKDAYS AS WELL. TWO OF MY FAVORITE FILMS OF THE YEAR. SO DEFINITELY CHECK THE TWO OF THOSE OUT. AND I KNOW YOU’RE GOING TO JEN OH, I WANT TO SEE BOTH OF THEM. YOU KNOW, THEY’RE SO WIDELY DIFFERENT FOR SURE, BUT EVERYONE HAS BEEN TALKING ABOUT BOTH MOVIES. WHAT IS HAPPINESS FOR BEGINNERS? I’VE NEVER EVEN HEARD OF THIS. YES. SO HAPPINESS FOR BEGINNERS IS A VERY SWEET FILM ABOUT A WOMAN STARTING LIFE AGAIN. POST-DIVORCE, STARRING ELLIE KEMPER. I’VE TALKED WITH HER BEFORE. SHE’S SO WONDERFUL. HAPPINESS FOR BEGINNERS IS NOW ON NETFLIX, AND ELLIE PLAYS A WOMAN WHO SIGNS UP FOR A WILDERNESS SURVIVAL COURSE TO TRY AND FIND HERSELF AGAIN POST-DIVORCE. I SPOKE TO ELLIE KEMPER ABOUT ALL OF HER COMEDIC ROLES. OF COURSE, UNBREAKABLE KIMMY SCHMIDT, THE OFFICE AND BRIDESMAIDS. I ALWAYS LOVE CHATTING WITH HER. HERE’S A LITTLE CLIP OF THAT INTERVIEW WITH ELLIE. ELLIE, FIRST OF ALL, HOW ARE YOU? IT’S SO NICE TO CHAT WITH YOU AGAIN. IT’S GREAT TO CHAT WITH YOU, LAUREN. THANK YOU. I HOPE YOU’RE WELL. I WAS CURIOUS IF YOU HAD AN INTEREST IN HIKING PRIOR AND IF YOU ACTUALLY LEARNED A LEGIT SURVIVAL SKILL. I’VE ALWAYS LOVED THE OUTDOORS AND I WENT BACKPACKING LIKE QUITE A BIT IN HIGH SCHOOL. SO IT WAS NICE TO REVISIT THAT ERA OF MY LIFE. AS FAR AS A LIFE SAVING SKILL, UNFORTUNATE? NO. I DID RELEARN HOW TO PITCH A TENT AND STUFF LIKE THAT, BUT NO, I DIDN’T LEARN HOW TO LIKE SUCK VENOM OUT OF A OF A WOUND. I’M CURIOUS WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF HELEN, FROM THIS FILM AND YOUR OTHER CHARACTERS, KIMMY SCHMIDT, AARON FROM THE OFFICE AND BECCA FROM BRIDESMAIDS. WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF ALL OF THOSE WOMEN WENT ON A HIKE TOGETHER? WHO DO YOU THINK WOULD DO THE BEST? WHO DO YOU THINK WOULD JUST FREAK OUT? YEAH, I LOVE THAT. THAT’S A GREAT STORY TO WRITE. I THINK HONESTLY, I THINK KIMMY SCHMIDT MIGHT CRUSH THEM ALL BECAUSE SHE’S SO UNMATCHED, REALLY STRONG. SO I THINK THAT HER, LIKE, SHEER PHYSICAL STRENGTH WOULD, LIKE, PROPEL HER TO THE NEXT LEVEL. I THINK BECCA WOULD FREAK OUT. I THINK, UM, AARON WOULD BE GAME, BUT MIGHT NOT SUCCEED. AND HELEN, WITH HER NEWFOUND, YOU KNOW, WILDERNESS SKILLS, WOULD DO OKAY. SHE WOULD. KIMMY WOULD WIN. YEAH. I LOVE, YOU KNOW, I LOVE THE CHARACTER OF BECCA. I’M, LIKE, STILL HOPING FOR A BRIDESMAIDS SEQUEL HERE. I’M STILL WANTING. YEAH. IF THEY DO IT, I’M IN. YES. ELLIE IS SO MUCH FUN TO CHAT WITH AND HAPPINESS FOR ME, TOO. YEAH. SHE’S SO NICE. I ACTUALLY REALLY, REALLY ENJOYED THE FILM. I THOUGHT IT WAS SWEET LUKE GRIMES FROM YELLOWSTONE PLAYS HER LOVE INTEREST AND THEY HAVE GREAT CHEMISTRY TOGETHER. IT’S ASKED ME TO I YOU KNOW, I LOVE YELLOWSTONE. I LOVE LUKE GRIMES. IT’S A REALLY, REALLY SWEET FILM. ONLY ABOUT LIKE AN HOUR AND 40 MINUTES LONG. AND IT’S CURRENTLY ON NETFLIX. I WOULD GIVE THE FILM A THREE AND A HALF OUT OF FIVE STARS. VERY, VERY FUN TO CHECK OUT. AND SHE’S A GREAT LEAD. BUT YES, LAST WEEKEND WE HAD BARB AND HEIMER. THIS WEEKEND WE HAVE HAUNT ME. ANOTHER DOUBLE FEATURE, THE FIRST. YES, THE FIRST FILM. I WANT TO TALK ABOUT IS TALK TO ME, WHICH I THINK IS AN INSTANT INDIE HORROR CLASSIC TALK TO ME IS FROM DIRECTORS. THEY’RE ACTUALLY TWINS. DANIEL AND MICHAEL FILIPPO. THEY STARTED A YOUTUBE CHANNEL CALLED RAQQA RAQQA, AND THEY SPECIALIZED IN HORROR COMEDY. THEY MADE THIS FILM TALK TO ME IN STUDIO A24, PICKED THE FILM UP. I WAS SCARED OUT OF MY MIND WATCHING THIS FILM IN THEATERS. JEN I LOVE HER. YES, I THINK YOU’RE GOING TO REALLY ENJOY IT. I LOVE ORIGINAL HORROR FILMS AND THIS ONE TOTALLY CREEPED ME OUT. IT’S SET IN AUSTRALIA IN A GROUP OF FRIENDS. DISCOVER HOW TO CONJURE SPIRITS AND TALK TO THE DEAD USING AN EMBALMED HAND THAT ONCE BELONGED TO A MEDIUM. THE FRIENDS BASICALLY BECOME HOOKED ON IT. IT’S KIND OF LIKE A DRUG TO THEM ALMOST. AND OF COURSE ONE OF THEM GOES TOO FAR, ENDS UP RELEASING VERY DARK SUPERNATURAL FORCES. THE SCARIEST PART OF HORROR FILMS TO ME IS WHEN THE CHARACTERS, PEOPLE ARE SEEING THEIR LOVED ONES IN A POSSESSED WAY AND GOING DOWN THAT DARK PATH. AND THIS FILM SPECIALIZES IN PRACTICAL EFFECTS. THE GRUESOME MAKEUP IS INCREDIBLE. I LOVE THAT THEY DON’T DO A LOT OF UNNECESSARY JUMP SCARES. THE THE DEMONS AND THE SPIRITS, THE GHOSTS, WHATEVER YOU WANT TO CALL THEM. THEY LOOK SO SCARY. VERY GRUESOME. THERE’S ONE SCENE THAT IS JUST SO DISTURBING AND SCARY AND IT JUST COMES OUT OF NOWHERE. IT JUST REALLY SHOCKS YOU. AND IT IS A HORROR FILM. YES. BUT WHAT MAKES IT A GREAT FILM IS IT ALSO HAS ADDICTION ISSUES, LOSS, GRIEF, BLENDED FAMILY DRAMA, A LOT OF REAL LIFE ISSUES. AND LIKE I SAID, IT’S ONE OF THE MOST ORIGINAL HORROR FILMS I’VE SEEN IN YEARS. ONLY AN HOUR AND A HALF LONG. A TOTALLY WILD RIDE AT THE THEATER AND AN INSANE PERFORMANCE FROM OUR LEAD. SOPHIE WILDE I THINK SHE’S GOING TO BE, YOU KNOW, A HUGE HORROR STAR AND HOPEFULLY GETS A LOT MORE PROJECTS AFTER THIS FILM. I’M GIVING TALK TO ME A FOUR AND A HALF OUT OF FIVE STARS, DEFINITELY ONE OF THE BEST HORROR FILMS AND MOST ORIGINAL I’VE SEEN IN A LONG WHILE. SO CHECK THAT ONE OUT, JEN, AND LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK. I CAN’T WAIT TO SEE THAT ONE. THE ONLY QUICK QUESTION I HAVE ABOUT THAT IS I KEEP WORRYING ABOUT THE DOG THAT THEY PUT OUT OF THE ROOM. SO DO I NEED TO WORRY OR AM I OKAY? THEY PUT THE DOG OUT OF THE ROOM. OKAY. SO THERE YOU GO. THANK YOU. AND I WILL SAY THAT YOU KNOW HOW I AM OBSESSED WITH WITH THAT KIND OF STUFF. SO, YES, LIKE THEY PUT THE DOG OUT OF THE ROOM AND THANK GOD THEY DO. OKAY. ALL RIGHT. GOOD. NOW LET’S MOVE ON TO THE HAUNTED MANSION, WHICH I HAD HIGH HOPES FOR. BUT. WELL, YES. HAUNTED MANSION, THE NEWEST FILM FROM WALT DISNEY STUDIOS, OF COURSE, BASED OFF OF DISNEY WORLD DISNEYLAND RIDE HAUNTED MANSION. TRULY ONE OF MY FAVORITE AMUSEMENT PARK RIDES, ACTUALLY. LIKE I ALWAYS I ALWAYS HAVE TO RIDE HAUNTED MANSION IF I’M IN DISNEY WORLD OR DISNEYLAND, A SINGLE MOM AND HER SON MOVE INTO A NEW HOUSE AND I LOVE THE CAST. LAKEITH STANFIELD, ROSARIO DAWSON PLAYS THE MOM, DANNY DEVITO, JAMIE LEE CURTIS, OWEN WILSON AND TIFFANY HADDISH. GREAT CAST. I’M SURE THEY HAD A FUN TIME FILMING IT. THE BEST PARTS ABOUT THE FILM ARE THE CALLBACKS TO THE HAUNTED MANSION RIDE. YOU KNOW, AT ONE POINT DANNY DEVITO IS IN LIKE A BIG CHAIR, LIKE RIDING IT PRETTY LIKE CRAZY. VERY, VERY SIMILAR TO THE RIDE. AND I ACTUALLY THINK THE GHOST, THEY WERE VERY CGI, BUT AGAIN, THEY LOOKED A LOT VERY SIMILAR TO HOW THEY LOOKED IN THE RIDE. EXACTLY. BUT THE MOVIE HAS NO BUSINESS BEING TWO HOURS LONG. THEY WERE TRYING TO INSERT SO MANY DIFFERENT GENRE WAS THE SCRIPT WAS NOT GREAT. AND I THINK THAT THEY’RE TRYING TO CONNECT US, YOU KNOW, WITH THE MAIN CHARACTER, LAKEITH STANFIELD, OVER THIS TRAUMA THAT HE’S HAD. AND IT WORKS A LITTLE BIT. BUT AGAIN, THE MOVIE’S JUST TOO LONG, TOO MUCH LIKE INSERTING OF COMEDY, TRYING TO PULL AT OUR HEARTSTRINGS. AND IN THE MIDDLE, I FEEL LIKE IT JUST REALLY DRAGGED. I REALLY FEEL LIKE THIS FILM COULD HAVE BEEN AN HOUR AND 20 MINUTES. AND ALSO, NO IDEA WHY THIS FILM IS BEING RELEASED IN JULY. I FEEL LIKE IT IS DEFINITELY MORE OF A SEPTEMBER OR OCTOBER RELEASE. IT JUST ENDED UP BEING PRETTY DULL WHEN IT COULD HAVE BEEN A LOT MORE FUN. I’M GIVING HAUNTED MANSION A TWO AND A HALF OUT OF FIVE STARS. I MEAN, IF YOU WANT TO TAKE IT AND BRING THE FAMILY FOR A MATINEE OR SOMETHING, GO FOR IT. BUT OTHERWISE, I WOULD WAIT TO SEE IT. MAYBE WHEN IT’S ON DISNEY+, I LIKE WHAT YOU SAID, THOUGH. THE WHOLE POINT YOU’RE GOING TO SEE THE HAUNTED MANSION IS TO GIVE YOU THE FEELS FROM THE RIDE, BECAUSE THAT’S WHAT YOU TAKE HOME WITH YOU FROM DISNEY WORLD OR DISNEYLAND. SO IF IT’S NOT GIVING YOU ALL THOSE FEELS SORT OF KIND OF WHAT’S THE POINT? IT DOES. YEAH. AND IT DOES DO A LOT OF CALLBACKS TO THE RIDE, BUT IT’S TWO HOURS LONG AND THERE’S A LOT GOING ON WITH ALL OF THE DIFFERENT CHARACTERS. AND I MEAN, I FEEL LIKE THE ACTORS ARE DOING THE BEST THEY CAN. I LOVE JAMIE LEE CURTIS, BUT WHEN SHE’S IN THE CRYSTAL BALL, HER FACE LOOKS SO CGI AND I DON’T REALLY UNDERSTAND WHY THEY MADE HER LOOK THAT WAY. SO MEAN. I’M LIKE, SHE’S JAMIE LEE CURTIS JUST MAKE HER LOOK LIKE JAMIE LEE CURTIS. BUT EXACTLY. YES. WELL, LISTEN, TONS OF OTHER FILMS TO SEE IN THEATERS THIS WEEKEND. DEFINITELY. LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU HAVE THOUGHT OF BARBIE AND OPPENHEIMER WHEN YOU SEE THOSE AS WELL. ALL RIGHT. YOU GOT IT. LAUREN, THANKS SO MUCH FOR JOINING US THIS MORNING. AND YOU CAN FOLLOW HER KNOWN AS DC FILM GIRL ON FACEBOOK, TWITTE
