MOVIE NIGHT at Home!

Bad Samaritan R ★★★✩✩

A restaurant valet (Robert Sheehan) breaks into the home of a rich client (David Tennant) — only to find that his would-be robbery victim is holding a woman (Kerry Condon) hostage! Can the burglar break her out without turning himself in? While not as tense as the vaguely similar Don’t Breathe, this cat-and-mouse thriller still has its moments. AVAILABLE AUG. 3 ON: itunes AVAILABLE AUG. 14 ON: DVD & Blu-ray

How to Talk to Girls at Parties R ★★★✩✩

A punk-rock fan (Alex Sharp) falls for an alien (Elle Fanning) in this star-crossed romance (based on a Neil Gaiman short story) set in 1970s London. With a wacky turn from a wigged-out Nicole Kidman, it’s quirky but doesn’t quite cohere. AVAILABLE NOW ON: itunes AVAILABLE AUG. 14 ON: DVD & Blu-ray

Avengers: Infinity War ★★★★✩ PG -13

Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.) and the Avengers team up with Star-lord (Chris Pratt) and the Guardians of the Galaxy in order to stop the villainous Thanos (Josh Brolin) from using the Infinity Stones to cause an extinction-level event. Stuffed with superheroes, this exciting (if exhausting) epic ends with an emotional cliff-hanger. AVAILABLE AUG. 14 ON: DVD, Blu-ray, itunes
