Here are the 50 best movies on HBO in February:

The Purge: Election Year

The Purge: Election Year

The Purge: Election Year is its coda, in which we realize that once the genie is out of its bottle, it can’t be put back inside, whether the genie is a system that permits nationwide carnage on an annual basis or, speaking to our sad reality, a president-elect who doesn’t think he should have to waste his time on intelligence briefings.

Hacksaw Ridge

The Purge: Election Year

WWII drama Hacksaw Ridge—half cornball melodrama, half ultra-violent action movie—is a bloodthirstily reverential bio in the same mold. Its subject, conscientious objector Desmond Doss (played with saintly sincerity by Andrew Garfield), a Seventh-day Adventist who won the Medal of Honor despite never carrying a weapon into combat, might not have approved of Gibson’s gore-hungry style, but the director’s way with battle scenes in the second half of the film is undeniable as cinema.

Sister Act

The Purge: Election Year

Sister Act is a pretty strange film once its plot threads are laid out: It is fundamentally a movie about one woman’s escape from an abusive boyfriend, as well as a musical, as well as a commentary on secularizing organized faith through from a “commercial” approach. In the film, modernizing the church’s choir represents a sort of post-1960s extension of modernizing the church itself, which makes Sister Act less a film about how to find faith, and more about how a church, and a woman, can reinvent their identities for a little applause.

Diana, Our Mother: Her Life and Legacy

The Purge: Election Year

This HBO original documentary falls in the “pathologically respectful” category, but it at least has a focus that makes clear that it understands its own purpose. It’s Diana’s life story as recalled by her sons, Prince William and Prince Harry. While not especially substantive or deep, it is pleasantly intimate and gives viewers a legitimate peek at a point of view they probably haven’t had access to until now, as Diana’s sons have not spoken much about her in public.

Girl With a Pearl Earring

Girl With a Pearl Earring

Based on a novel, Girl With A Pearl Earring is the first feature by Peter Webber, and even if it doesn’t attempt to understand painter Johannes Vermeer, it does show a mastery of its own visual art. Every frame looks stunning, as if Webber and his crew surrounded themselves with Vermeer’s paintings and adopted his palette for the glowing yellow faces of the people dressed for tea and the deep blue suits of the men on the sidewalk, both of which subtly echo the dialogue.
