| |  | Likewise Winner of The Week |
|  | | Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania may mostly be MCU fan service (with a side of Paul Rudd), but luckily Jonathan Majors has gifted us with a deliciously ridiculous performance as Kang the Conqueror. Read on to find out why he’s our Winner of the Week. | |  | The List |

|  | | Snort and Bear It | | Elizabeth Banks helms Cocaine Bear, the action comedy (based on a true story!) about a coked-up black bear wreaking havoc. Did it give critics an adrenaline rush or will audiences find themselves behind the wrong kind of eight ball? | - "A reminder of wonderful days of mid-budget comedies, where studios would take a wild chance on something absolutely unhinged just to see if it might take off with audiences." — Ross Bonaime, Collider
- "For a film that promises to not transcend shock value, it can also feel rather tame." — Paul Autard, Slant
- "Banks is a savvy director, never letting the intended humor camp things up too much, but also well aware this is a horror film with a flesh-chomping bear at its center." — Pete Hammond, Deadline
