When a lovable shepherd (Hugh Jackman) dies who will solve his murder? Why, his sheep of course!

Drew Goddard, who previously adapted Andy Weir‘s The Martian to the big screen, adapts Weir’s novel Project Hail Mary which stars Ryan Gosling as an outspoken, but reluctant, scientist who is Earth’s last hope for survival.

Dhurandhar The Revenge

Hoppers

  • Title: Hoppers
  • IMDb: link

Hoppers is an odd film. For those who enjoy when Disney or Pixar go a bit further off the more established path (while they are also preparing yet another Toy Story sequel and a live-action Moana), that still hits on established themes of family and nature, there’s certainly something here worth considering.
