Friday’s openings redux: ‘Tully’ apparently delivers

Looks as if the movies I already listed below constitute Friday’s openings, though “The Death of Stalin” appears to be coming back to AMC River Park Square.

Nothing new is opening at the Magic Lantern .

As for the movies playing right now, “Avengers: Infinity War” is breaking records: best opening weekends both domestically ($250 million) and worldwide ($630 million). You can check out the specifics by clicking here .

Looking ahead, one of the more interesting releases stars Charlize Theron (directed by Jason Reitman, written by Diablo Cody). Here are some comments:

Moira MacDonald , Seattle Times: “Theron holds the movie in her hands and gives it to us like a gift; one we accept with joy.”

Michael O’Sullivan, Washington Post: “That it works as well as it does is thanks to a screenplay that largely drops (Diablo) Cody’s signature sarcasm - so often used to mask painful underlying secrets - for a voice that is much more raw and direct.”

Joe Dziemianowicz , New York Daily News: “It’s smart, funny and bursting with ideas about the joys and rigors motherhood and reckoning with the past and the future.”

That’s the lot. So go, see a movie. And enjoy.
