New Movies to Watch This Week: Disney's 'Raya,' Amy Poehler's 'Moxie' and Eddie Murphy's Return

It’s a very different landscape this week than it was a year ago, just before the pandemic forced cinemas to close around the country. Still, with New York cinemas cautiously reopening this week and many other markets determined to bring moviegoing back, the studios and indie distributors alike are bringing many of their long-delayed releases onto screens, albeit in an entirely new way.
For contrasting examples, look at how two of the majors are handling what were intended to be family film tentpoles: Paramount decided to bypass theaters entirely with “The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge on the Run,” using the title to launch its new subscription service, Paramount Plus (audiences can also rent it, at a price of $19.99, for a limited time via PVOD platforms). Disney tested a similar approach with “Mulan” late last summer, and now unveils its latest animated princess movie, “Raya and the Last Dragon” — though that label disguises the many ways in which this one advances the formula — both in theaters and via Disney Plus (where it can be rented for a premium surcharge).

'Boogie' review: In portraying basketball, culture-clash drama fouls out

CST_
Focus Features presents a film written and directed by Eddie Huang. Rated R (for language throughout including sexual references, and some drug use). Running time: 90 minutes. Opens Friday at local theaters.
The second offense: basketball sequences supposedly depicting New York City high school hoops at the highest level, but nobody appears to be taller than about 6-foot-1 and the games move at a relatively slow pace, with the players appearing to be average at best.
Another problem is the title character is borderline likable. He’s a basically decent kid, but he can be rude and crude — and even more damning, he’s not all that interesting. Compared to Ray Allen’s Jesus Shuttlesworth in “He Got Game,” Penny Hardaway’s Butch McRae in “Blue Chips” or Duane Martin’s Kyle Lee Watson in “Above the Rim” (all real-life hoopsters playing fictional characters), Taylor Takahashi as Boogie is solid but just doesn’t have the same level of game, on or off the court.

Restauranteur, chef, author, television host, producer and general provocateur: Throughout his multi-faceted career, Eddie Huang has worn many hats. That includes fashion arbiter, as captured on the big screen in his directorial debut, "Boogie."
"He's extremely fashionable. Listen,
I'm fashionable, but he's extremely fashionable,” says the movie's costume designer Vera Chow, calling from Atlanta, where she's filming season 10 of "The Walking Dead."

For subtlety’s sake, it’s better if coming-of-age stories don’t feature subplots in which characters are asked to pen their own autobiographical tales of maturation, and then spend time debating the merits of J.D. Salinger’s “The Catcher in the Rye” as well as their personal similarities to its protagonist, Holden Caulfield. That “Boogie” does this is emblematic of its frequent clunkiness. Nonetheless, Eddie Huang’s directorial debut about a Chinese American basketball player trying to balance athletics, romance and parental expectations — elements that should give it a leg up on the competition when it debuts in theaters on March 5.

'Boogie' Film Review: Eddie Huang's Basketball Saga Plays Best Off the Court

‘Boogie’ Film Review: Eddie Huang’s Basketball Saga Plays Best Off the Court
The characters’ interpersonal dynamics are fascinating, complicated, and less likely to be mired in sports-movie clichésAlonso Duralde | March 3, 2021 @ 5:00 PM

There are important stories in “Boogie” about young love, about abusive marital and parental relationships, and about navigating Western culture as the child of Asian immigrants, but the film seems determined to be about the rise of a promising high-school basketball player, even though the basketball storyline is the least interesting of the plotlines on display.
Restaurateur and “Fresh Off the Boat” author Eddie Huang makes his feature debut as a writer-director, bringing a great deal of emotional honesty and cultural specificity to the table. But while his approach to the characters and their interactions feel fresh and personal, the entire basketball plot is cobbled together from countless sports-movie clichés.
