The challenges of being the only hearing member of a close-knit family are movingly explored in the drama “CODA” (Apple TV+), the title of which is an acronym for child of deaf adults. That phrase describes the situation of the film’s main character, 17-year-old Ruby Rossi (Emilia Jones).

An Arthurian legend comes to the big screen in writer-director David Lowery’s “The Green Knight” (A24). Lovely to look at but difficult to plumb, the film successfully immerses viewers in the atmosphere of the Middle Ages.

Matt Damon plays a man in search of redemption and renewal in the bleak yet touching drama “Stillwater”.

For most of its running time, the lighthearted adventure “Jungle Cruise” (Disney), adapted by director Jaume Collet-Serra from a Magic Kingdom theme park ride, registers as a diverting, if insubstantial, fantasy.

A day at the beach is no day at the beach in the thriller “Old” (Universal).

There’s a strained tone to “Space Jam: A New Legacy” (Warner Bros.), director Malcolm D. Lee’s sequel to the 1996 sports comedy.

Its chaotic plot and somewhat colicky disposition may leave viewers of the sequel “The Boss Baby: Family Business” (Universal) wishing the stork had stayed home this time.

Nondenominational religious flourishes and an emphasis on the value of family offset occasionally intense showdowns and some unsavory vocabulary in “F9: The Fast Saga” (Universal).

While it does nothing to solve the perennial problem for real-life parents that obedient children rarely have adventures, director Enrico Casarosa’s animated fantasy “Luca” (Disney+) is otherwise a winsome tale full of charm and Italian flair.

The beloved characters created by Beatrix Potter in her series of children’s books stray even further from their amiable roots in this sequel to the 2018 film, a blend of live action and computer-generated animation once again directed and co-written by Will Gluck.
