Showing on Friday night at the Bus Stop Theatre is Tim Tracy’s Canadian Ninja. I don’t think I need to say too much about this. You know if this is for you:

Going into The Oxford (A Bigger Splash moves to Park Lane) is Into The Forest, Patricia Rozema’s apocalyptic drama, starring Ellen Page and Evan Rachel Wood as sisters living somewhere that looks a lot like the British Columbia interior when all the lights go out and don’t come back on. It’s not a perfect film, but it’s a fine entry into the End of Days genre from both a feminine and Canadian perspective, which is especially rare. For more of my thoughts, go back to my AFF review—at the time the film had neither a trailer or a poster.

A teary romantic drama that’s earning some controversy over its depiction of a character with disabilities is Me Before You, which stars Game of Thrones‘ Emilia Clarke.

A documentary that’s been playing locally and I’d totally missed announcing it is called Painting The Modern Garden: Monet To Matisse, which might be some terrific early summer viewing for those with an interest in the masters.

The Lonely Island, Andy Samberg’s comedy/music/video-making collective now has a movie: Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping, more of their music satire material made famous on Saturday Night Live, a show which has yet to right itself since he departed. The trailer makes me think of the Justins, Timberlake and Bieber. Might be hilarious.

An unheralded Canadian comedy squeaks into cinemas, called The Steps, from director Andrew Currie (Fido).

And it’s incredibly hard to believe, but a franchise of movies that started as a one-joke takeoff of Frank Miller’s 1980s Daredevil comic still has life. But don’t kid yourself: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out Of The Shadows exists to sell toys.
