In Theaters: OPERATION FINALE, KIN, DESTINATION WEDDING and THE LITTLE STRANGER

This weekend is a little lighter in terms of new offerings. While "Crazy Rich Asians" and "The Meg" will certainly continue to dominate the box-office, it's up to the historical drama "Operation Finale" and the sci-fi action film "Kin" to offer a touch of diversity this weekend. Also, the social media thriller "Searching" is expanding nationwide this weekend.

Among the new limited releases, the romantic comedy "Destination Wedding" starring Keanu Reeves and Winona Ryder, and the period mystery "The Little Stranger" starring Domhnall Gleeson and Ruth Wilson might be worth checking out.

Synopses, details, critical/audience reception, trailers, and more after the jump.

OPERATION FINALE

Official Synopsis

Fifteen years after the end of World War II, Israel's intelligence agency Mossad and security agency Shin Bet - led by the tireless and heroic agent Peter Malkin (Isaac) - launched a daring top-secret raid to capture the notorious Eichmann (Kingsley), who had been reported dead in the chaos following Nazi Germany's collapse but was, in fact, living and working in a suburb of Buenos Aires, Argentina under an assumed identity along with his wife and two sons. Monitoring his daily routine, Malkin and his operatives plot and execute the abduction under the cover of darkness just a few feet from Eichmann's home. Determined to sneak him out of Argentina to stand trial in Israel, Malkin and Eichmann engage in an intense and gripping game of cat-and-mouse.

DESTINATION WEDDING

Official Synopsis

DESTINATION WEDDING reunites two of Hollywood's most adored stars, Keanu Reeves and Winona Ryder, as the socially awkward Frank and Lindsay. When they meet on their way to a destination wedding, they soon discover they have a lot in common: they both hate the bride, the groom, the wedding, themselves, and most especially each other. As the weekend's events continually force them together -- and their cheerlessness immediately isolates them from the other guests -- Frank and Lindsay find that if you verbally spar with someone long enough, anything can happen.
