Kin, with James Franco. Gun Violence and a Mysterious Otherworldly Weapon. August 31, 2018

Official storyline: "Chased by a vengeful criminal (James Franco), the feds and a gang of otherworldly soldiers, a recently released ex-con (Jack Reynor) and his adopted younger brother (Myles Truitt) are forced to go on the run with a weapon of mysterious origin as their only protection. "

So, apparently, to give our "gun violence featuring man and innocent bicycle-riding younger brother in danger"  trope a twist, this poster seems to indicate that the good guys are on the run from one vengeful bad guy, and must rely on, of all things, aliens to help. "Kin," in this case, might not be just about the relationship between guy and his little bro.  It might be about how humans have a mysterious kinship with aliens too. What the?.....

Sometimes, even big name actors and college professors must take just any job to make ends meet, I guess.

Beautifully Broken: August 24, 2018

Description of this movie is: A refugee’s escape, a prisoner’s promise, and a daughter’s painful secret converge in this inspiring true story of hope. As three fathers fight to save their families, their lives become intertwined.

Sounds like this might be an uplifting and inspiration story about white family and black family encountering and learning from each other amidst the turmoil of African social turmoil and violence. 

Might be interesting, but I can't seem to find much about the movie. Interesting enough, for this week, there aren't any domestic movie releases featuring posters and gratuitous gun toting guys.
Some movies of note coming out: 
Papillon
A.X.L
The Happytime Murders
Searching (Featuring John Cho and Debra Messing). This is a good one. Quite original and gripping.

Mile 22.with Mark Wahlberg: August 17, 2018

Sounds too familiar: American law enforcement officer and foreign law enforcement officer forced to work together to combat the baddies. The poster depicts only the American police, Mark Wahlberg of course, single handedly defeating the enemies with his big gun. Very tough guy with a very big gun.

I will pass on this one.
