When a lovesick musician is handed the wrong number for his dream girl, he joins forces with a driven psychology student and sparks a campus-wide frenzy in this sweet romance comedy from Alicia MacDonald. Angourie Rice and Spike Fearn make the chase warm and buoyant, the sort of feel-good story that has you both grinning and rooting for love to find a way. Sitting at 89% on Rotten Tomatoes and 7.2 on IMDb, it is easy, hopeful comfort for two.

Andrew Scott and Brendan Fraser lead this taut historical thriller as, in the 72 hours before D-Day, General Eisenhower and Captain James Stagg face an impossible decision with the fate of the free world in the balance. Anthony Maras keeps the tension human and intimate rather than brutal, and the weight of that single call gives you plenty to talk through afterward. It earns 87% on Rotten Tomatoes and 7.3 on IMDb, and it is well worth catching if this one calls to you.
