As a seasoned movie critic with a penchant for films that span the spectrum of genres and styles, I must say that this week’s box office in the U.K. and Ireland is an intriguing mix of old favorites and new contenders. The continued success of “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice” is a testament to the enduring appeal of sequels, while the strong performance of Christopher Nolan’s “Interstellar” on its 10th anniversary re-release serves as a reminder of the power of timeless storytelling.
