0:00Stay informed in two minutes or less with Sydney news today from the Daily News Now. Even though award season has wrapped up, cinemas are packed with fresh films worth catching. Standouts include the animated sci-fi Arco, the slasher horror dolly, the black comedy, how to make a killing, the baff to winning drama I swear, and... Ryan Gosling Space Adventure Project, Hail Mary. Arco takes us to a vibrant future, where a 10-year-old boy steals a time travel suit and lands in a storm ravaged 21st century. It's a hand-drawn coming-of-age tale, with studio jibbly vibes, produced by Natalie Portman, and featuring voices like Mark Ruffalo and Will Farrow. Director Hugo Bienvenue spent five years on this passion project. Meanwhile, Dolly delivers gory thrills in the Appalachian forests, nodding to classics like The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. A couple stumbles on creepy dolls guarded by a hulking mass killer, played by wrestler, Max the Impaler. It's packed with slasher tropes but leans in the gruesome fun.

1:02Over and how to make a killing, glimp how shapeshifts through personas to infiltrate his wealthy family and plot revenge in this eat the rich. Satire. It's amusing but uneven, with Margaret quality stealing scenes. Then there's I-Swear, a heartfelt biopic about activist John Davidson living with Tourette, earning Robert Aremio a leading actor BAFTA. Project Hail Mary rounds it out with Gosling as an amdijek astronaut teaming up with an alien buddy to save Earth from a solar crisis. Adaptive from Andy Wears Best Seller, it's an optimistic crowd-pleaser directed by Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, blending humor and heart despite, some familiar sci-fi beats.
