Jenna Rink is turning 13 years old, and she doesn’t want to be original, she wants to be cool. As puberty promises to upend Jenna’s life and her birthday party spirals into total teenage catastrophe, she makes a wish to be “30, flirty, and thriving.” What happens next is a topsy-turvy coming of age tale full of immaculate 2000s/1980s fashion mashups, dancing to Michael Jackson’s “Thriller,” and a heartwarming reminder of what matters most in life. Starring Jennifer Garner, Mark Ruffalo, Judy Greer, and Andy Serkis. (98 mins., DCP)  

As the sun sets on Jenna Rink’s fairytale dream life, the next and final stop is the beach that makes you old. In M. Night Shyamalan’s sinister and supernatural Old, an intergenerational group of innocent vacationers find themselves on the sparkling sandy shores of a gorgeous beach—but their sun-kissed getaway quickly takes a fatal turn as mysterious life-threatening changes befall each and every one of them. A perfect spooky flick for saying goodbye to summer! (108 mins., DCP)
