Sinners (R)

The Wedding Banquet (R)

Desperate to stay in the U.S., a gay man hatches the perfect plan: a green card marriage with his straight, single friend. She gets help paying for IVF, he gets to keep his visa, everybody wins. That is, until his no-nonsense Korean grandmother crash-lands in town with one mission: to throw the wedding of the century. Now, what was supposed to be a quiet legal arrangement spirals into a full-blown, kimchi-fueled spectacle of tradition, deception, and unexpected truths. Love may not be the reason for the wedding, but it might just be what saves it.

The Last of Us Season 2 Premiere (TV-MA)

The bond between Joel and Ellie was forged in blood, loss, and survival, but in Season 2, that connection is tested like never before. As they navigate a shattered America still rotting from the inside out, new dangers rise, not just from infected monsters, but from the vengeance-driven survivors left behind. With trust in short supply and consequences closing in, their journey becomes less about escape and more about what it truly costs to protect the ones you love — and what’s left when love turns to rage.

The Ugly Stepsister (R)

Elvira has always been in the shadows of her flawless sister, of the crown, and of Prince Julian, the kingdom’s delicate darling who haunts her dreams like a beautiful curse. Desperate to be chosen, Elvira submits to the kingdom’s warped standards of perfection, twisting herself, body and soul, into something unrecognizable. In this subversive, blood-slick twist on “Cinderella,” vanity becomes a monster, love is a sickness, and the glass slipper doesn’t fit — because it was never made for her.

Government Cheese (TV-14)

After years behind bars, Hampton Chambers is eager to reunite with his family, but what he walks into isn’t the warm welcome he expected. In his absence, his wife and sons have built a quirky, unconventional family dynamic that doesn’t exactly include Hampton’s old-school approach to order. As he tries to reassert his place, Hampton finds himself in the middle of a hilarious family power struggle, where new roles, unexpected alliances, and a whole lot of awkward moments redefine what it means to be “home.” In this offbeat comedy, Hampton discovers that fitting back into his family might be harder than fitting into the jeans he left behind.
