1. Poison
93% rating on Rotten Tomatoes
This Wes Anderson short is about an Englishman who has to endure the horror of a poisonous snake crawling on his stomach.

Adapted from the short story by Roald Dahl, this film is filled with classic dry English wit.

Wes Anderson keeps on coming with another wonderful offering based on a Dahl tale. A small boy is tormented by bigger bullies, but what they don't count on is just how clever the boy is. Cue lots of laughs as the two moronic attackers suffer at the hands of their brilliant would-be victim.

7. No Hard Feelings
71% rating on Rotten Tomatoes
Jennifer Lawrence is brilliant in this film, and it feels like this role was made just for her (and it was). She plays 32-year-old Maddie, who is paid to date a wealthy couple's 19-year-old son in order to bring him out of his shell and get him ready for college. Anything to save her home!
8. Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse

The long-awaited sequel to a film that shook up the animation industry.

9. They Cloned Tyrone

Who turns out to be the son of her new boss. Will she risk her career for love?
11. Mixed by Erry
100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes
This biographical comedy from Italy tells the largely unknown story of how pirated mixed tapes helped spread the love of pop music to young people in the 1980s. Three brothers from Naples created their own brand of bootlegged tapes, hence the movie's title. Mixed by Erry chronicles the rise and fall of their short-lived label, but also captures the lasting impact their actions had on Italian youth.
12. Kathal: A Jackfruit Mystery
73% rating on Rotten Tomatoes
When prized kathals, or jackfruits, are stolen from a prominent politician's garden, it is up to Inspector Mahima to find them. But as she investigates, she discovers that the prime suspect, the gardener, has a crisis of his own. His daughter has been kidnapped, and instead of trying to find her, the entire police force is searching for the kathals. This Indian satire is non-stop fun from start to finish and will have you shaking your head as much as it will have you in stitches.
