Hippo – Releasing in Limited Theaters
Rotten Tomatoes Reviewer Score – 92%
Two stepsiblings, Hippo, played by Kimball Farley, and Buttercup, played by Lilla Kizlinger, deal with coming of age. While Hippo prefers video games, Buttercup, a Hungarian Catholic immigrant has nothing but eyes for her stepsibling. Her unrequited love becomes a waking nightmare that causes comedic outcomes through the journey.
I have to be honest, the idea of stepsiblings does not make the idea of them falling in love any better. To my they represent family. However, if you can survive the perverse and awkward exchanges, a lot of reviewers consider this film to be a masterpiece.

When Santa Claus, played by J.K. Simmons, is kidnapped, his head of security, played by Dwayne Johnson, must team up with the world’s worst naughty boy, and unfortunately most infamous bounty hunter, played by Chris Evans, to save Christmas.
It’s very much The Santa Clause meets Walking Tall. There is a lot of comedy, a lot of Christmas, and a ton of tiny jokes that plays with the fact that Chris Evan’s character did not believe in Santa.
