Cape Town – Monsters, a superhero gone bad, and childhood friends find love - there's something for everyone to watch this weekend.
Godzilla II: King of Monsters is the sequel to the 2014 film and the 35th in the franchise. Human existence hangs on a thread when an eco-terrorist organisation releases Godzilla and a host of other monsters.
What if Superman was evil? The superhero horror, Brightburn, explores this.
And on Netflix, a romantic comedy starring Ali Wong and Randall Park.
HERE ARE 3 NEW MOVIES TO SEE THIS WEEKEND:
Movie: Godzilla II: King of Monsters
Our rating: 1/5
Short review: Godzilla: King of the Monsters is an abortive attempt to drum up interest for next year's Godzilla vs Kong and should be ignored as the cynical cash-in that it so obviously is.
Movie: Brightburn
Our rating: 3/5
Short review: A compelling look at what Superman may have been had he not been a hero, Brightburn's horrific inversion is marred by an incongruous story.
Movie: Always Be My Maybe (Netflix)
Our rating: 5/5
Short review: Always Be My Maybe is a fresh take on the romantic comedy genre - with its entertaining leads, and relatable storyline this is one you'll watch more than once.
