January is typically a long month, but it ends with a variety of new movies and television shows that promise to entertain. Highlights include a thriller featuring Sophie Thatcher, which turns typical horror tropes on their head; a comedy with Reese Witherspoon and Will Ferrell competing as wedding planners; a drama from Dan Fogelman known for unexpected twists; and the final season of Mo, a semi-autobiographical series that provides insight into America's immigration system and showcases rich cultural narratives.
It's better to go in blind to the thriller about a group of friends on a weekend vacation, as it turns typical horror tropes into engaging storytelling.
Witherspoon and Ferrell's dynamic is reminiscent of Neighbors, suggesting a comedic rivalry in You're Cordially Invited that's likely different than conventional rom-coms.
The drama starring Sterling K. Brown and others might seem simplistic, but creator Dan Fogelman's work suggests an unexpected depth that redefines the premise.
Mo’s final season offers a poignant look into the American immigration system and showcases Muslim and Palestinian culture in a relatable, comedic way.
