‘Bodycam’
Found-footage horror meets “Cops” with this urban fright fest. A pair of police officers are sent to investigate a domestic dispute, the situation goes sideways and someone gets shot.

‘Fackham Hall’
An “Airplane!” spin on “Downton Abbey” you didn’t know you needed. This hilariously daffy spoof follows the aristocratic but incestuous Davenport family in 1930s England as daughter Rose (Thomasin McKenzie) is torn between marrying cousin Archibald (Tom Felton) to save their home or being with pickpocket-turned-servant Eric (Ben Radcliffe).

‘Hamnet’
Prepare to be an emotional wreck by the end of Chloé Zhao’s heartfelt look at William Shakespeare’s family life. Jessie Buckley plays wife Agnes, who raises the kids while Will (Paul Mescal) works in London. Tragedy leads to disconnection between the two, but ultimately also to the creation of “Hamlet” and different ways of dealing with grief.

‘It Was Just an Accident’
Jafar Panahi’s thriller is an unforgettable juggling of serious moral questions and clever screwball comedy. A mechanic (Vahid Mobasseri) accidentally runs into and then kidnaps a man (Ebrahim Azizi) he believes was his torturer in an Iranian jail, then brings in other political prisoners to figure out what to do about him in a breathtaking modern fable.

‘Melania’
Director Brett Ratner‘s less-than-revelatory documentary looks at the life of Melania Trump, the former fashion model and wife of President Donald Trump.

Based on a tragic true-life incident, director Joe Carnahan’s survival thriller stars Zachary Levi as one of four friends who head out on a fishing expedition and their boat capsizes in a nasty storm.

‘Nuremberg’
Plenty crowd-pleasing while also relevant and moving, the historical thriller stars Russell Crowe as Adolf Hitler’s narcissistic right-hand man Hermann Göring (Russell Crowe). He and others in the Nazi high command are put on trial for war crimes, and Göring engages in mind games with Army psychiatrist Douglas Kelley (Rami Malek).

‘The Secret Agent’
The 1970s-set political thriller stars a terrific Wagner Moura as a Brazilian researcher hunted by mercenary killers. The former teacher aims to escape the country’s ruthless dictatorship with his son by taking on a different name and falling in with fellow dissidents, but finds himself wondering who he can really trust.

‘War Machine’
Ever wondered what it’d be like to cross “Full Metal Jacket” with a “Transformers” movie? “Reacher” main man Alan Ritchson stars as an Army combat engineer who enlists in a program to become a Ranger. His final mission goes awry when an armored enemy from outer space shows up and he has to work with fellow soldiers to survive.
