The biggest and most talked about movie in the box office this weekend is A Minecraft Movie which despite skeptical reviews, you're likely going to see it anyway.
Our boy Pedro is back on the big screen. Pascal is starring in this "love letter to the 80s", Freaky Tales, if love letters are filled with lots of violence.
Other films in theaters are feel-good movie The Friend, The Luckiest Man in America based on a true story, and drama Eric LaRue.
New to streaming, Netflix has started releasing episodes of Million Dollar Secret which some are comparing to Traitors. So in honor of Traitors (one of Denise's favorite by the way), we're playing a fun game to find the "traitor" among us. [Credit: Smart TV with Alison Hammond]

So it's not technically a super power, but not being able to feel any pain is pretty close to it. That's the premise of Novocaine starring Jack Quaid. Side note, Quaid starred in Companion which was just in theaters a month ago, and he's currently filming Season 5 of The Boys. Can we say leading man energy?
The spy thriller, Black Bag starring Cate Blanchett and Michael Fassbender is in theaters now.
Stranger Things stars are starring in new movies. Millie Bobby Brown is on a mission to find her brother with the help of a mysterious robot in The Electric State on Netflix. And Sadie Sink stars and sings in the eclectic rock opera, O'Dessa on Hulu.

Did you forget Valentine's Day? We're here to help!
Get your heart pumping at the theater. Anthony Mackie is taking over the shield in Captain America: Brave New World. Or get in all the feels by seeing the family friendly film, Paddington in Peru.
If that doesn't work, we have 2 words for you; Bridget Jones. Make it a marathon. Watch all 3 Bridget Jones movies leading up to the newest film in the series, Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy. It's been over 2 decades since Renee Zellweger graced the screen as this iconic character. She's back and better than ever. Maybe that's not for you. Try watching a guilty pleasure. Love is Blind Season 8 is streaming on Netflix. Plus, The White Lotus Season 3 is premiering on HBO Max.
Here's the last trick up our sleeve. Have some fun with your partner with a little blind ranking game. Put a bunch of romantic movie titles in a bag, pick them out randomly, blind rank them, and see how your list ends up.
Find out how Ariel & Denise's list shaped up on Hollywood Hits.
