It’s going to be an exciting week of drama and adventure with a host of new movies available for home entertainment such as Wonder Woman, The Bad Batch, I, Daniel Blake and The Big Sick. But if you’re feeling like a classic, then grab the 40th anniversary re-release of Close Encounters of the Third Kind! ~Alexa Caruso

Wonder Woman – Diana (Gal Gadot), princess of the Amazons, has learned to fight on her closely guarded Amazon homeland of Paradise Island. Although her mother has always tried to protect her, Diana must take up her destiny as a warrior when an American pilot, Steve Trevor (Chris Pine), crashes his plane off their waters and reveals there’s a massive conflict taking place in the outside world. Diana travels with Steve to London during WWI, believing a rogue German general named Erich Ludendorff (Danny Huston) is the God of War — Ares — and that only she can stop him and end the violence.

The Bad Batch – A young woman named Arlen (Suki Waterhouse) is exiled into the desert in a post-apocalyptic America where she discovers a whole crew of misfits deemed “not good enough, smart enough or young enough.” They call themselves “The Bad Batch.” It quickly turns into a fight for survival in a savage desert wasteland populated by those deemed undesirable to civilized society — including murderers, drug dealers and illegal immigrants.

But when Emily is admitted to the hospital and being prepped for an induced coma, Kumail immediately calls her parents — Beth (Holly Hunter) and Terry (Ray Romano).
