Andy Farnsworth joins KSL-TV to help audiences decipher #WhatToWatch for the weekend of December 13, 2024. The best thing to watch is actually streaming on Netflix: "Carry-On" is a super-tense action thriller reminiscent of "Die Hard 2” and even has a Christmas angle. Also streaming, DisneyPlus’s "Dream Productions" takes us back to the imaginative world of "Inside Out," in shorts that Andy may or may not have liked more than "Inside Out 2.” And in in-theater options this week, there is "Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim," an anime-style telling of some LOTR backstory, and "Kraven The Hunter," another dud from Sony's Marvel universe.

Andy Farnsworth joins KSL-TV to help audiences decipher #WhatToWatch for the weekend of December 6, 2024. 5, 2024. This week’s movie roundup starts of strong with Jude Law and Nicholas Hoult turning in outstanding performances in "The Order." One of the better-animated movies of the year, "Flow" follows a kitty trying to survive a catastrophic flood and has absolutely no dialogue whatsoever. On streaming, a couple of Netflix movies might catch your interest, including "Mary," which imagines what *could* have happened with the mother of Jesus. It's a Nativity Action Movie… kind of. And in a sweet story, the animated movie "That Christmas” follows a once-in-a-generation snowstorm on Christmas Eve in a small English seaside town, creating new opportunities for fun and human connection.
