'Jurassic World' dinos dominate with Pixar prequel 'Lightyear' in the wings, plus a solid slate of streaming premieres weekend

from Streamed & Screened: Movie and TV Reviews and Interviews

As predicted last week, "Jurassic World: Dominion" did gangbusters at the box office but failed to wow critics, our own Bruce Miller especially. The summer blockbuster season continues to heat up though, with Toy Story prequel "Lightyear." And "Top Gun: Maverick" looks to maintain a steady cruising altitude and (we predict) might even reclaim the top spot from the dinosaurs in short order. If leaving the house is unappealing, there's a long list of interesting movies hitting streaming services including a romcom re-tread, "Father of the Bride" (HBO Max; June 16), a festival darling, "Cha Cha Real Smooth" (Apple TV+ June 17), British sex comedy, "Good Luck to You, Leo Grande" (Hulu; June 17), and a flashy George Saunders sci-fi action adaptation of "Spiderhead" (Netflix; June 17) from the director of "Top Gun: Maverick." More from Bruce Miller: 'Jurassic World: Dominion' makes you regret there were dinosaurs 'Hacks,' season one, shows why Jean Smart is such a treasure Reinvented 'Company' brings laughs, new insight into relationships Six' brings out the rock star side of Henry VIII's wives 'Music Man' makes Iowans look nimble and Hugh Jackman-friendly Movies in a Minute - "The Bob's Burgers Movie" Who will win the Tonys? Look for 'Strange Loop,' 'Company' and 'Take Me Out' to tower 2022 Tony Awards preview 'Strange Loop' teems with creativity, opens doors Warren Carlyle helps Hugh Jackman wow as 'The Music Man'  'Six' gives a pop spin to its Henry VIII history lesson Where to watch: Jurassic World: Dominion (official site) Cha Cha Real Smooth (Apple TV+ June 17) Father of the Bride (HBO Max; June 16) Good Luck to You, Leo Grande (Hulu; June 17) Halftime (Netflix; June 14) Lightyear (official site) Spiderhead (Netflix; June 17) Links to other fun stuff we talked about in this episode: Ages 9 To Adult (A92A) podcast "Escape from Spiderhead" (The New Yorker) Follow the show: Twitter: https://twitter.com/StreamdNScreendInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/streamedandscreenedFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/StreamedAndScreened Streamed & Screened is a podcast about movies and TV hosted by Bruce Miller, an entertainment reporter for multiple decades who is now the editor of the Sioux City Journal, Jared McNett, a reporter for the Sioux City Journal, and Chris Lay, the podcast operations manager for Lee Enterprises.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
