The Buzz: Ellen DeGeneres is back as the lovable but forgetful Dory, and I am excited for her underwater adventure. My kids probably made me watch Finding Nemo about a million times. Each time the title credits started, I couldn’t help but roll my eyes: “Again?!” But the more I watched, the more I found myself understanding the moral of caring for those closest to you. While it seems we have lost Dory this time around, I have a feeling we are going to learn a lot more about the true nature of family along the way. – Lance

The Buzz: Overlooking the sophomoric marketing slogans, we think this action-comedy high-school reunion might become a runaway hit; the first pairing of Dwayne Johnson and Kevin Hart feels fresh in a season where audiences have shunned sequels to a certain degree.

And who doesn’t want to hitch a ride on Daniel Radcliffe? – Arno

The Buzz: What seems to be at the core of this documentary is some sort of entity that lures and traps young men in a quasi-sexual internet-based peepshow, and the expertly produced trailer had us conflicted as to whether we should spoil the ending by reading reviews of the doc or waiting until we could see the entire story unfurl for ourselves. (We are opting for the latter but truly on edge to learn of this subject’s mysteries.)
