The week’s openings: The wrecking crew

Another holiday week, another group of Wednesday movie openings. And a varied lot it is, according to the national release schedule:

“Creed II” : Michael B. Jordan returns as the son of Apollo Creed, and this time he has to face the son of the man who killed his father, Ivan Drago . Yo, Rocky, when you gonna retire?

“Ralph Breaks the Internet” : The sequel to “Wreck-It Ralph (2012) in which our titular hero does exactly what the title says. What, he goes to work for Facebook?

“Robin Hood” : Taron Edgerton stars in this latest version of the old tale of an English thief who steals from the rich and … yeah, yeah, you know the rest.

“Green Book” : Opening wider, this film uses the star power of Mahershala Ali and Viggo Mortensen to embellish the true story of an Italian-American hard guy (Mortensen) who was hired in 1962 to drive a concert pianist (Ali) through the Deep South. Kind of a reverse “Driving Miss Daisy.”

That’s the preliminary list. As always, I’ll update when the area theaters finalize their bookings.
