    Hands of Stone
    Ana de Armas makes a lasting impression as Felicidad, the angelic girl (her hair is braided, like a halo) who’s the love of Duran’s life. Too bad their relationship is underexplored and left to a quickie montage of baby-making and deliveries. That’s one of the reasons the film’s not a knockout.

    The Hollars
    The cast, led by John Krasinski, who doubles as director, has its own fight against the lame and contrived script by Jim Strouse.

    Tallulah
    Tallulah is a sensitive and stirring look at motherhood.

    Absolutely Fabulous: The Movie
    As a full-length film this fashion industry over-the-top farce about two hot messes behaving badly — and boozily — is both too much and too little.

    Don't Think Twice
    Jack and Sam share a wonderful scene when performance and real life blur, which is the whole point of the movie.

    Café Society
    The rom-dram is wistful and wisecracking, boasts a polished ensemble and is such a period looker you wish you could time-travel to the Jazz Era.

    The Infiltrator
    The movie rises thanks to an ace in the hole: Bryan Cranston, whose stirring star turn hooks us completely.

    The BFG
    Fun and likable, occasionally even delightful.

    Free State of Jones
    The film gets predictable and loses its firm grip a third of the way in. Too bad, since the film directed and co-written by Gary Ross (“The Hunger Games,” “Seabiscuit”) gets off to a bang-up beginning.

    Central Intelligence
    Even the obligatory blooper reel after the film isn’t as funny as it should be.

    Me Before You
    The film belongs to Clarke. Her warm and winning star turn lifts this checklist chick flick.
    • 44 Metascore

    Manhattan Night
    Writer and director Brian DeCubellis bathes the screen in dark shadows and provides fluid pacing. If you like your entertainment pulpy — and don’t mind swallowing cliches along the way — this “Night” is worth a look.

    The Nice Guys
    As summer popcorn-style entertainment, The Nice Guys gets the job done.
    • 67 Metascore

    Last Days in the Desert
    Moviegoers don’t get much to chew on either, besides a decent performance by Ewan McGregor as both Jesus and a demon, plus some OMG-worthy landscapes.

    The Boss
    If they gave out badges for smutty language, this movie would have lots. There’s nothing wrong with that. But filthy doesn’t automatically equal funny.

    My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2
    Among the lessons learned: marriages need tending and distance can make people closer. Not earth-shaking, but harmless. Like this sequel.
    • 44 Metascore

    The Bronze
    The Bronze isn’t a brilliant game-changer, just a funny and filthy diversion.
    • 63 Metascore

    Hello, My Name Is Doris
    Luckily for Hello, My Name Is Doris, Sally Field is still so likable, really likable.
    • 53 Metascore
    • 40 Joe Dziemianowicz
    Knight of Cups
    It’s visually sumptuous but laborious. Worse, it’s pretty humorless. Knight of Cups takes itself very seriously.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 80 Joe Dziemianowicz
    Sisters
    A gross-out comedy motored by girl power that’s funnier than hell. Raunchier, too.
