The 13 best movies in theaters right now
Headed to the movie theater? These are the 13 best movies playing in theaters in the US right now.
This list is updated each Friday, as necessary, and organized alphabetically.
A movie is eligible if it's in wide release (meaning it's playing in theaters nationwide) or in limited release in a major market (typically New York and Los Angeles). Films that have screened at festivals are not eligible until they are released in theaters. Not all films are showing in all cities, so check IMDB for your local listings.
This list is curated by Alissa Wilkinson, who sees pretty much every film out there but can't review all of them. So we've also included Metacritic scores and other notable reviews.
