“Don’t Breathe”
B+ A group of teen burglars target a blind man, but underestimate their victim. There’s clever suspense and terrifying scares that don’t rely on the supernatural or fantasy. Starring Jane Levy, Dylan Minette and Daniel Zovatto. Directed by Fede Alvarez. (Katie Walsh, Tribune News Service) Rated R for terror, violence, disturbing content, and language including sexual references. At metro theaters. 1 hour, 28 minutes.
“Equity”
B Three women experience Wall Street, making serious sacrifices to get ahead in the world. It’s an exciting, smartly sexy, suspenseful little crime drama that evokes classic Hollywood film noir. Starring Anna Gunn, Sarah Megan Thomas and Alysia Reiner. Directed by Meera Menon. (Tirdad Derakhshani, Philadelphia Inquirer) Rated R for profanity, some sexuality. At metro theaters. 1 hour, 40 minutes.
“Hands of Stone”

Everything is at a gotta-get-it-all-in pace, but sometimes it’s entertaining and sometimes it’s in a frustrating blur. Starring Robert De Niro and Edgar Ramirez. Directed by Jonathan Jakubowicz. (Michael Phillips, Chicago Tribune) Rated R for language throughout and some sexuality/nudity. At metro theaters. 1 hour, 45 minutes.
