THE SUN IS ALSO A STAR (2019) Stream on HBO. Rent on Amazon, Google Play, Vudu and YouTube. Daniel Bae (Charles Melton) and Natasha Kingsley (Yara Shahidi) become sun-crossed lovers who run into each other on a radiant Manhattan morning. This young-adult romance follows the endearing protagonists through a lovingly shot New York City as they deal with their respective teenage drama. In his review for The Times, A.O. Scott wrote that “‘The Sun Is Also a Star,’ like its title, doesn’t benefit from overthinking. The themes serve the mood, which is charming. You could choose to believe otherwise, of course, but why be that way?”

WHAT MEN WANT (2019) Stream on Netflix. Rent on Amazon, Google Play, Vudu and YouTube. Adam Shankman directs and Taraji P. Henson stars in this gender-swapped remake of Nancy Meyers’s 2000 movie “What Women Want.” Henson plays Ali Davis, a sports agent in Atlanta who gets passed up for a well-deserved promotion in her bro-centric office. But when Ali drinks a special tea from her psychic (Erykah Badu) she’s suddenly able to hear what men are thinking and tries to use her newfound power to sign a basketball superstar. As Ben Kenigsberg wrote in his review for The Times, it doesn’t take a mind reader to see that Ali’s co-workers “are complete boneheads, working in a frat house dressed up as an office.”
