“A Minecraft Movie,” directed by Jared Hess, is the film adaptation of the formative video game. The film released April 4 and was highly anticipated despite the trailers receiving backlash from fans. Good comedic writing and some strong performances help to make up for the poorly developed characters and questionable plot.

Fans of the loveable and skilled martial artist Panda Po, voiced by Jack Black, are in for another ‘skadoosh’ in “Kung Fu Panda 4,” which was released in theaters March 8. Directed by Mike Mitchell, the movie picks up from “Kung Fu Panda 3” with Po basking in the glory of being chosen as the Dragon Warrior. However, Master Shifu (Dustin Hoffman), tells Po that he has to become the spiritual leader of the Valley of Peace, which begins the search for Po’s successor.

It’s a film that’s full of wonderful, creepy ideas that are either left half-explored or take ridiculous turns in the third act.

From setting to character, nothing in “Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle” feels genuine. The film has a talented cast but a lackluster, shallow script.
