Hi, {{first_name | friend}}!
Nostalgia is running the show this week. He-Man is back on the big screen for the first time in 40 years, and a '60s suspense thriller is getting a modern day treatment with a star-studded cast.
Speaking of nostalgia, the first-ever Worth the Watch Movie Club edition drops today! This month's pick, chosen by our readers, is Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. I revisited this mind-bending masterpiece last night, and let’s just say… it holds up.

The Biggest Premieres of the Weekend
Two big ones this week: one for the big screen, one for your couch. Both have the kind of casts that make it hard to look away.
Masters of the Universe
In theaters now
Prince Adam (Nicholas Galitzine) has spent 15 years on Earth, cut off from Eternia, until the Sword of Power shows up and decides it's time to go home. Skeletor (Jared Leto) has shattered everything Adam loves, and saving the world means finally becoming He-Man—the most powerful man in the universe. For a lot of people, this character is childhood. Let’s hope this movie was worth the 40-year wait.
Cape Fear
Streaming now on Apple TV
Life is good for attorneys Anna (Amy Adams) and Tom Bowden (Patrick Wilson) until the killer they put behind bars (Javier Bardem) walks free and wants revenge. Based on The Executioners by John D. MacDonald and produced by Spielberg and Scorsese, this psychological thriller is a must-watch.
Hotel Spotlight
Together with Inside Hotels
The Lodge at Jackson Hole
The Vibe: Western romance in mountain country
The Location: Jackson Hole, Wyoming
Instaworthy Accommodations:
Bold adventure is the name of the game at The Lodge at Jackson Hole, where 154 spacious rooms—many with in-room fireplaces and mountain views—put you steps from some of the American West's most iconic terrain. Grand Teton and Yellowstone are practically in your backyard, with wildlife tours, whitewater rafting, and archery by day, and stargazing or dinner in a covered wagon by night. When snow hits, snowmobiles, dog sled tours, and the National Elk Refuge become the main draw. At The Lodge at Jackson Hole, you’ve got nothing but big, beautiful days ahead of you.

Trailer of the Day
How to Rob a Bank
A crew of bank robbers go viral for posting their heists online, putting them in the crosshairs of an FBI agent (John C. Reilly) and a brilliant software engineer (Zoë Kravitz). From the mind behind The Fall Guy and Bullet Train comes this slick, quick-witted heist thriller with the energy of a 2000s blockbuster.
