14 Films to See in April
In addition to the eighth Fast and Furious film, the month ahead will bring a monster movie comedy, an adaptation of Dave Eggers' tech industry novel, and new films from Joe Swanberg, Ben Wheatley, and Cristian Mungiu, and more. In addition to a dozen notable theatrical releases, we have also included a pair of promising new Netflix exclusives streaming later this week.
Adapted by Gaby Chiappe from Lissa Evans’ novel Their Finest Hour and a Half and directed by Lone Scherfig, Their Finest focuses on a group of filmmakers tasked with making an inspirational film during the Blitz. Gemma Arterton stars as a female scriptwriter matched up with Sam Claflin to produce a film starring a pompous actor played by Bill Nighy in a performance praised by every critic regardless of their feelings toward the film in general.
