'Moana' is an absolutely beautiful movie and something that, give or take a few troublesome elements, should give a new generation and population of children a character to identify with.

'Seoul Searching' is a wonderful, funny & moving homage to the John Hughes teen comedies of the 80s and a revealing look at the diversity of the Korean diaspora.

Painkillers tells the story of a military unit that wakes up in a hospital after a mission. None of the soldiers remember their mission, and they are given experimental drugs to help regain their memories safely. As they begin to remember, they realize there is more to the mission, and …
