2. Dungeons and Dragons: Honor Among Thieves
Credit: Paramount Pictures What do you get when an owlbear, a displacer beast, and a gelatinous cube walk into a bar? Why, Dungeons and Dragons: Honor Among Thieves! From directors Jonathan Goldstein and John Francis Daley, the film earned extremely positive reviews out of its premiere at SXSW, including from Mashable's Kristy Puchko, who called it "the kind of epic fun fans have been waiting for."
The fantasy action film hinges around its core adventuring party, a miscellaneous group of D&D characters: a bard (Chris Pine), a barbarian (Michelle Rodriguez), a sorcerer (Justice Smith), a druid (Sophia Lillis), and a paladin (Regé-Jean Page).* — Belen Edwards, Entertainment Reporter
What we thought:Dungeons and Dragons: Honor Among Thievesis a rollicking crowdpleaser, bursting with action, comedy, and spectacle. Its filmmakers deftly balance tones and character arcs to give everyone their hero moment, yet never get bogged down by the weight of so much story, lore, and legacy. — Kristy Puchko, Film Editor

5. Silo
Credit: Apple TV+ Apple TV+'s big new sci-has one hell of a set-up: the last 10,000 people on Earth live in a silo that seemingly protects them from the deadly world beyond its doors. But what exactly is out there? Dune star Rebecca Ferguson leads the series as engineer Juliette, who might just find the global truth while uncovering personal murder mysteries of her own. She's supported by an immensely talented cast including Common, Rashida Jones, Avi Nash, Tim Robbins, Harriet Walters, Tanya Moodie, and more. — S.C.

6. Succession

What we thought:Jesse Armstrong's Emmy-winning drama takes no prisoners in its fourth and final season. It's as unsparing and sharp as its predecessors, yet somehow manages to up the show's audacity to new heights.— B.E.

7. Shazam! Fury of the Gods
Credit: Warner Bros. It seems like only yesterday that Billy Batson (Asher Angel) gained the power to transform into his heroic alter ego, Shazam (Zachary Levi). But now, in Shazam! Fury of the Gods, Billy and his foster siblings' newfound powers are under attack by dangerous forces.
Those forces are the daughters of the Greek god Atlas, led by Hespera (Helen Mirren). She's furious that humans would claim the power of gods, and now she and her sisters Kalypso (Lucy Liu) and Anthea (Rachel Zegler) have arrived in our world to wreak havoc. While the daughters of Atlas pose a massive threat, the Shazamily isn't going down without a fight. They'll just have to fight Hespera and her dragon first.* — B.E.
What we thought:Although the film deviates from the franchise's roots, it's still a fun ride aimed at a younger audience. The sequel, however, lacks the ensemble charm of the original as it tries to fit a huge amount of story, characters, and monsters into its two-hour, 10-minute runtime. — Karama Horne, Mashable
