Trailer watch: Which movie should you go see this weekend?

What’s a must-watch, and what’s a miss? We tell you.

THE WEEKEND IS coming up, and that means new movies for you to see. But which is a must-watch, and are there any you should avoid?

We take a look.

Insurgent

The Divergent Series / YouTube

What we know

It’s the second in the Divergent series, and main characters Tris and Four are on the run.

What the critics say

  • “It’s wandering, not urgent, while indicating that all-Shailene-all-the-time can be too much of a pretty good thing.” - TIME
  • “There’s no question that the feature is a leaner, meaner affair than its predecessor. That’s not enough, though, to counterbalance the often oppressive self-seriousness” - The Hollywood Reporter

The Gunman

MOVIECLIPS Trailers / YouTube

What we know

Sean Penn plays an international spy who is fighting to clear his name. Based on the novel The Prone Gunman.

What the critics say

  • “The Gunman is too disorganised and sloppy to make sense as political commentary or to work on the most basic level as a globe-trotting chase thriller.” - AV Club
  • “It was impossible to care about any of these three characters” - JoBlo.com

The Voices

Movie Trailers / YouTube

What we know

Ryan Reynolds plays a young guy who hears his pets talking to him… and obeys them, with deadly consequences. It’s all due to his complex psychological state.

What the critics say

  • “a kind of twisted mix of romance and psychodrama… a highly unusual role for Reynolds” - Den of Geek
  • “Satrapi is exploring the dark underbelly and murderous intent of even the most cheerful, seemingly happy people in society.” - RogerEbert.com
