"Picking up right where 28 Years Later left off, with director Nia DaCosta now at the helm, 12-year-old Spike (Alfie Williams) is inducted into Jimmy Crystal's (Jack O'Connell) gleefully violent group dubbed the Jimmys. And then Ralph Fiennes gives an incredible performance as the tranquil doctor living in the titular bone temple, fostering an unexpected relationship with the alpha zombie Samson. If this sequel does well enough, we'll get Danny Boyle and Alex Garland's trilogy capper with Cillian Murphy."
"In this comedic thriller, Emilia Clarke and Haley Lu Richardson star as women whose husbands are killed on an undercover mission in the Soviet Union. Desperate to learn what happened, the pair volunteers to become spies in Moscow themselves. Espionage is a constant TV subgenre, but in its current form it is often an excuse for aggro imperialism. This one not so much! -Roxana Hadadi"
