I am trying to determine what movie to see. I want a movie that reminds me of the Marvel Cinematic Universe movies.
Joker is currently in theaters. It's based on a comic book character, so you might like it if you liked the Marvel movies.
That's not the type of movie I'm looking for. I've heard that it's very dark and disturbing with little redemption. I don't want something depressing or gross that will leave a bad taste in my mouth.
What about Gemini? It's an action movie, which is the same genre as superhero movies.
The ads for Gemini looked dull. I want something that's a balance of humor or fantasy and action, not something that's explosions or violence all the way through.
How do you want the movie to make you feel?
I want something excitable that will keep me on the edge of my seat, but something that's also balanced with lighthearted moments so I don't get too anxious. I don't want anything that's going to make me too sad. Some sadness in the movie is okay, but I want a happy ending so I can leave feeling pleasant.
Do you want me to check movie reviews?
I would like that, but not critic reviews. Can you see what average people visiting the theater are saying?
Once Upon a Time in Hollywood has good audience reviews. It also has a balance of thrills and humor.
I don't want a movie that's rated R. They typically rely too much on raunchy humor or unnecessary swearing.
Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark has an 84% audience approval rate and is rated PG-13. It also has some of the action you were looking for.
I don't like horror movies. I don't want anything that's going to make me afraid or jumpscare me. My friends have told me that there are some new family movies coming out that are entertaining for people of all ages.
The Addams Family has high ratings and is playing in theaters now.
I don't like animated movies. Are there any live-action ones?
Maleficent: Mistress of Evil is playing. It has action, some lighthearted and fantastical elements, and it's dramatic and intense without being scary. It also has high audience reviews.
