5 films that will dominate the cinema this weekend

Movie fans have plenty of reasons to rush to the theaters this weekend. The program mixes action, drama, comedy and even science fiction in premieres that bring together some of the biggest names in Hollywood and also national talent. From Leonardo DiCaprio to Julia Roberts, including Dwayne Johnson and Ingrid Guimarães, the releases promise to please very different audiences.

After weeks marked by isolated blockbusters, the circuit gains diversity. Among the new features are a futuristic adventure from Disney, intense dramas written by renowned filmmakers, and a Brazilian comedy that relies on the cast’s charisma to get laughs. It’s that kind of weekend where you want to see more than one film at once.

Another highlight is the variety of genres. Those who enjoy excitement will find heavy stories, with family dilemmas, serious accusations and chemical dependency. Those who prefer lightness will find relief with the national comedy that makes fun even in chaotic situations. There’s no shortage of action either: from the digital worlds of Tron to a personal war against enemies from the past, all you need to do is grab the popcorn.

The big studios were also present. Warner Bros., Disney and Paris Filmes compete for space at the box office. The bet is that each production attracts a loyal audience, forming a menu full of alternatives for those who love cinema. The highlight is the return of stars who shine on the big screen and have legions of fans.
