NOW PLAYING

‘American Honey’ ***

This wild, unruly and astonishingly beautiful fourth feature from “Fish Tank” director Andrea Arnold earns its 162-minute running time as it follows a teenager (startling newcomer Sasha Lane) who embraces the thrill and adventure of the open road. With Shia LaBeouf and Riley Keough. Written and directed by Andrea Arnold. (R, 2:42) At Kahala 8

‘The Accountant’ **1/2

Ben Affleck is a high-functioning math savant who finds solace in ritual, patterns and finishing his tasks. He leads an unassuming life in Illinois as a strip mall accountant, but his unique gifts allow him a lucrative side-hustle as a forensic accountant for “some of the scariest people on the planet,” putting the Treasury Department hot on his trail. Directed by Gavin O’Connor. (R, 2:08)

‘Asura: The City of Madness’

Not reviewed

South Korean crime thriller about a shady cop who is caught between Internal Affairs and a corrupt mayor. Directed by Kim Sung-su. In Korean with English subtitles. (NR, 2:16) At Pearlridge West

‘The Birth of a Nation’ **1/2

Nate Parker stars and directs this dramatization based on the life of Nat Turner, a slave and preacher who led a bloody pre-Civil War uprising with the hope of freeing his people. It’s a promising debut from Parker, but it also feels very much like a first film, unable to reach lofty artistry in juxtaposing unimaginable human injustices with both lyrical spirituality and shocking violence. (R, 2:00)

‘Bridget Jones’s Baby’ ***

Renee Zellweger returns as Britain’s most famous singleton, now a fit, happy, high-profile TV news producer who within a few weeks has romantic encounters with two men, former lover Mark (Colin Firth) and relationship guru Jack (Patrick Dempsey), resulting in pregnancy. The men try to out-partner one another at every turn, but for all the comedic ridiculousness of the paternity crisis, the film is a celebration of women. Directed by Sharon Maguire. (R, 2:02) At Dole Cannery Stadium 18

‘Deepwater Horizon’ ***

An effects-driven disaster movie starring Mark Wahlberg as Mike Williams, the real-life technician who saved several lives when the Deepwater Horizon oil rig exploded in April 2010. John Malkovich is the bottom line- obsessed BP executive who orders workers to ignore tests of the rig, since they’re weeks behind schedule. The film is not a nuanced documentary about the worst ecological disaster in U.S. history, but it portrays its heroes as relatable, and the effects are spectacular. Directed by Peter Berg. Imax 2-D. (PG-13, 1:47)

‘The Girl on the Train’ ***

A recently divorced young woman (Emily Blunt) fantasizes about a perfect couple she sees during her daily commute. But after a drunken binge, she gets embroiled in a mystery involving the disappearance of the woman, Megan. The story is told from multiple points of view, with excellent performances by Blunt, Haley Bennett as Megan and Allison Janney as the salty detective investigating the case. Directed by Tate Taylor. (R, 1:52)

‘Kevin Hart — What Now?’ **1/2

In this concert movie filmed before 50,000 people at a Philadelphia stadium, Hart shows maturity in his material, joking about his family, fiancee and his life as a movie star. The humor, as it always has, revolves around Hart’s slightly bratty self-preservation instincts. Directed by Leslie Small, the film never feels static, with multiple cameras capturing the crowd and Hart’s every expression, moving along at such a clip you almost wish it would slow down for a moment. (R, 1:36)

‘Kubo and the Two Strings’ ****

In this 3-D wonderment steeped in ancient Japanese folklore, magic is both an eye-popping phenomenon and an everyday reality in this animated fantasy about a boy (voiced by Art Parkinson), his magical stringed instrument and the enchanted monkey (voiced by Charlize Theron) and beetle (voiced by Matthew McConaughey) who help him to heal a long-ago rift and reunite his family. Directed by Travis Knight. (PG, 1:41) At Dole Cannery Stadium 18
