Getting a lot of Boss Baby: Family Business vibes from this week. Aside from that, we’ve got Criterion finally reissuing Neil Jordan’s Mona Lisa, Warner Bros. continuing its long run of service for the IMDb crowd with a 4K of The Shawshank Redemption, and perhaps best of all, the home-video release of Zola, this year’s raucous comedy about internet brain-rot and the difficulties of sex work. It’s a formally audacious work in how it melds 16mm grit to the shiny, distracting aesthetics of smartphone apps, and it’s anchored by four of the year’s best performances, particularly Colman Domingo’s as an ambiguously-accented, possibly psychotic pimp. Plus, Cousin Greg from Succession is dressed like a pizza box in it.
