Beetz Grounds the Gory Pulp of They Will Kill You
Zazie Beetz leads the pulpy, graphic action thriller They Will Kill You with agile, grounded fight scenes amid a cartoonish gore-styled world; the film leans into horror aesthetics and strong visual storytelling. The piece also surveys Nadav Lapid’s Yes!, a brash political satire; Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice, a time-traveling genre mash-up that struggles to blend its ambitions; and Pretty Lethal, a ballet-infused action comedy led by Uma Thurman, each balancing tone and spectacle in distinct ways.
