Justin Chang reviews the film 'Queer' starring Daniel Craig.

This pre-Thanksgiving week sees the release of two much-anticipated studio movies. Paul Mescal and Denzel Washington star in "Gladiator II," the sequel to the Oscar-winning Roman epic "Gladiator," while Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande star in "Wicked," an adaptation of the Broadway musical fantasy featuring characters from "The Wizard Of Oz." Our film critic Justin Chang has seen both "Wicked" and "Gladiator II" and has this review.

Earlier this year, "All We Imagine As Light" became the first Indian movie in three decades to compete at the Cannes Film Festival, where it won the Grand Prize. Our film critic Justin Chang says it's a luminous and affecting story about the friendship between two Mumbai-based women.

In the courtroom drama "Juror #2," the latest movie directed by Clint Eastwood, Nicholas Hoult plays a man called up for jury duty and is confronted with a moral crisis. The movie also features performances by Toni Collette and J.K. Simmons. Our film critic Justin Chang says it's a thoughtful, complex story and one of Eastwood's better recent films, and recommends that you see it in theaters while you can.

Film Critic Justin Chang reviewed the new film Blitz.

In the new thriller "Conclave," now playing in theaters, Ralph Fiennes plays a cardinal in the Vatican who is tasked with overseeing the election of a new pope. The movie also features Stanley Tucci, John Lithgow and Isabella Rossellini, and was directed by Edward Berger of the Oscar-winning "All Quiet On The Western Front." Our film critic, Justin Chang, has this review of "Conclave."

The new comedy "Anora," which won the top prize at this year's Cannes Film Festival, opens in theaters this week. It's the latest comic drama from Sean Baker, the writer and director of "Tangerine," "The Florida Project" and "Red Rocket." And it stars Mikey Madison as a New York stripper who gets more than she bargained for when she marries the son of a Russian oligarch. Our film critic Justin Chang has this review.
