The Best New Movies This Weekend: Iron Lung, Send Help, & More

0 1

This weekend saw the release of several anticipated movies, including Sam Raimi's Send Help, Markiplier's Iron Lung, and Jason Statham's Shelter.

The king of this weekend's domestic box office was Send Help, which pulled in $20 million over the first three days—a strong opening for any film in January, much less a genre-driven horror project.

Here are the best movies released this weekend, with full details about where to watch them.

Send Help (dir. Sam Raimi)

20th Century Studios

Rachel McAdams and Dylan O'Brian star in Send Help, a comedy-driven piece of social horror that centers around a corporate employee and her narcisstic boss who find themselves stranded on a deserted island following a deadly plane crash. The pair's toxic workplace dynamic is quickly flipped when McAdams' protagonist realizes she doesn't have to put up with her boss' needy, misogynistic behavior anymore.

Send Help is currently showing in theaters across the United States, with international release dates following next week.

Iron Lung (dir. Mark Fischbach)

MUBI

Iron Lung marks the directorial debut of Mark "Markiplier" Fischbach, an internet icon best known for his video game playthroughs and scripted comedy content. The sci-fi horror tells the story of a group of post-apocalyptic survivors who travel to a nearby planet in search of salvation. The film opened to an 89% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes and pulled in an impressive $17.8 million at the domestic box office.

Iron Lung is currently showing in theaters around the world.

Shelter (dir. Ric Roman Waugh)

Black Bear

Shelter is the latest project from Greenland director Ric Roman Waugh, starring Jason Statham as a secluded ex-assassin who brings himself out of retirement to protect a young girl tasked with delivering him supplies. The film managed an impressive 88% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes and came fifth in this week's domestic box office rankings with $5.5 million.

Shelter is currently showing in theaters around the world.

The Moment (dir. Aidan Zamiri)

A24

Starring pop sensation Charli xcx as a fictionalized version of herself, Aidan Zamiri's The Moment is a powerful mockumentary that dissects the toxic culture of the music industry and the struggles of living in the public spotlight. The film also stars Alexander Skarsgard, Kylie Jenner, and Rachel Sennott, and has a mixed critical reception with 62% on Rotten Tomatoes.

The Moment is currently showing in select cinemas in New York and Los Angeles. The film will have its wide U.S. release on February 6, and its international premiere at the Berlinale Film Festival later this month.
