Misfit cousins reunite for a tour of Poland to honor their beloved grandmother, but their old tensions resurface against the backdrop of their family history.

A Real Pain is a wonderful film
12 Studies, Op. 25, No. 3 in F MajorWritten by Frederic ChopinPerformed by Tzvi Erez. Jessie Eisenberg and Kieran Culkin give some of the best performances of their careers. I definitely think Culkin will be one of the best players at the Oscars this year.

Eisenberg also wrote the screenplay for this film and directed it. This film has a consistently intriguing, moving, and funny script. The film tackles some tough subjects and deals with them all with such taste. This is a film that clearly meant something to everyone who created it, and I think you can see that in the final product. From Alien: Romulus to Road House, take a look back at some of our favorite posters from 2024.
