    This week is still all rodeo, all the time, but plenty of non-RodeoHouston options abound.

     

    A classic Greek story rises with Houston Ballet, a magician works his tricks, and a local hotel pays tribute to an iconic gangster movie — check that, the greatest gangster movie of all time.

     

    Enjoy and get out there — here are your best bets for the weekend.

     

     Thursday, March 10

     Houston Ballet presents Sylvia
    Choreographer Stanton Welch brings his own interpretation to the classic story of the strong mythological heroine, the huntress Sylvia, and her love for a mortal shepherd.

     Holocaust Museum Houston presents "Notorious RBG: The Life and Times of Ruth Bader Ginsburg"
    Based upon the New York Times bestseller of the same name, this unique exhibition explores the American judicial system through one of its sharpest legal minds, the late Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Through archival photographs and documents, contemporary art, media stations, and playful interactives, the exhibition tells the parallel stories of RBG’s remarkable career and the efforts she joined to expand “We the People” to include those long left out of the Constitution’s promises. Through Sunday, July 31. 10 am (noon Sunday).

     

     Blossom & Sol Wellness and Natural Hair Festival
    The Blossom & Sol Wellness, taking place on Friday, is an outdoor multi-sensory experience where attendees will be able to experience a variety of mental & physical wellness-related activities, which includes meditation, yoga, sound therapy, women’s health, and more.

     Moody Center for the Arts presents Samsāra VR Experience and Remote Q&A with Artist opening reception

     Downtown District presents St. Patrick's Day Parade & Pub Crawl

Celebrate the luck of the Irish at the 62nd Annual St. Patrick’s Day Parade, now with a new route in Historic Market Square. The fun continues at Market Square Park with food, games, and live music until 3 pm. Guests can then head out, dressed head to toe in green, to the neighborhood’s eclectic bars and restaurants for drink specials on all their Irish favorites. Noon.

     

     The Orange Show Center for Visionary Art presents Yasmin Williams
    With her ambidextrous and pedidextrous, multi-instrumental techniques and influences ranging from video games to West African griots subverting the predominantly white male canon of fingerstyle guitar, Yasmin Williams is truly a guitarist for the new century. Her sophomore release, Urban Driftwood, is for and of these times. Though the record is instrumental, its songs follow a narrative arc of 2020, illustrating both a personal journey and a national reckoning, through Williams’ evocative, lyrical compositions. 6 pm.

     

     Take the Cannoli – 50 Years of The Godfather at Hotel ZaZa Memorial City
    For one night only, Hotel ZaZa will be celebrating the iconic film's 50th anniversary in style. Channel your inner Vito Corleone and go back in time in the "Godfather Suite," adorned with red velvet, film memorabilia and art deco throughout. Bartenders dressed to the nines will be slinging Negronis in-suite from 6-9 p.m., hotel guests will be graced with a single rose at turndown and can even take the cannoli at check-in to enjoy the irresistible Italian treat made in-house. 6 pm.

     

     Houston Chamber Choir presents De La Noche Al Día
    Under the directions of Venezuelan guest conductor María Guinand, “De la noche al día” (which means “From Night to Day”) will explore things of a darker, somber nature, then move into daylight and the brightness of the spirit. Most of the music comes from Central and South America—spotlighting creators ranging from Esteban Salas, an 18th-century Cuban composer, to Alberto Grau, Guinand’s husband and an esteemed composer in his own right. 7:30 pm.

     

     Sunday, March 13

     

     Houston Arboretum presents Pup Crawl & Pet Expo
    The Houston Arboretum & Nature Center invites all interested humans to bring their favorite furry friends to the best “pup” crawl around, on the Arboretum grounds. After four special, Saint Arnold beer stops along the trails, participants will interact with local pet vendors at the Pet Expo and walk away with a commemorative Pup Crawl glass. Proceeds support the conservation and education programs of the Houston Arboretum and animal shelter/adoption center BARC. 4 pm.

     

     Kristina Kuzmic: The Hope and Humor Tour
    Kristina Kuzmic is a cheerleader for her fellow humans. It’s not something she ever anticipated doing, but after immigrating to America from Croatia during the war in her homeland and later facing more challenges (divorce, single parenting, poverty, depression), Kuzmic wanted to be for others what she wished someone had been for her during her darkest hours. Now, with over one billion video views and this "night out" show, she's providing her audience with encouragement, hope and humor in a role she never expected to fill. 6:30 pm.

     

     Grandson at the Scout Bar
    Known for his polemical songwriting and exuberant live performances, platinum-selling alt-rocker grandson is fresh off some of his biggest collaborations to date. From writing "Rain," an exclusive track with Jessie Reyez for The Suicide Squad, to tapping Travis Barker and pop superstar Kesha for "Drop Dead" and even partnering with the legendary Tom Morello for the gut-busting "Hold The Line," grandson's Houston show this weekend promises to be unforgettable. 7 pm.

    Movie Review

    'I Know What You Did Last Summer' reboot lacks energy or thrills

    Sarah Pidgeon, Madelyn Cline and Chase Sui Wonders in I Know What You Did Last Summer.

    When the original I Know What You Did Last Summer came out in 1997, it was riding the coattails of Scream, which came out in 1996. Like that film, it featured hot young actors of the time, albeit with a story that was much more standard than the inventive Scream. Still, it made enough of an impact for some studio executive to think it was worth reviving nearly 30 years later with its own legacy-quel.

    In the new I Know What You Did Last Summer, a group of five high school friends — Danica (Madelyn Cline), Ava (Chase Sui Wonders), Milo (Jonah Hauer-King), Teddy (Tyriq Withers), and Stevie (Sarah Pidgeon) — have reunited at the engagement party for Danica and Teddy on the 4th of July. While on an impromptu trip to watch fireworks on a twisty road in the nearby hills, Teddy goofs off in the middle of the road, causing a truck to swerve and drive off the cliff.

    A year later, having sworn to each other to not speak of the accident to anybody, they start getting stalked by a mysterious person in a fisherman’s slicker carrying a hook. With Teddy’s rich father, Grant (Billy Campbell), actively trying to cover up what his son did (as well as the fallout), it’s up to the group to figure out who is coming after them and how to stop that person.

    Written and directed by Jennifer Kaytin Robinson, and co-written by Sam Lansky, the film doesn’t try to reinvent the wheel; in fact, it barely builds something that can roll. It might just be the laziest and most incompetent attempt to capitalize on an existing piece of intellectual property. There is almost zero effort put into establishing a connection between the members of the friend group, making them feel like strangers for the entire film.

    It doesn’t help that the young male actors in the film — which grows to include Wyatt (Joshua Orpin), a new fiance for Danica — serve no purpose other than to be generically good-looking. The most impactful of the men in the film is the returning Freddie Prinze, Jr., who — along with Jennifer Love Hewitt — has his old character from the first two films shoehorned into the new story. The filmmakers undercut any good feelings from their return by giving them hardly anything to do and then having Hewitt deliver the line, “Nostalgia is overrated.”

    The film as a whole never has a sense of momentum. The inciting incident is so tame — they even attempt to save the driver before the truck goes off the cliff — that the guilt they feel and the anger of the person going after them doesn’t feel warranted. Once the attacks start, it is shocking at how low-energy the sequences are, providing no sense of suspense or thrills. The filmmakers resort to the lamest of horror movie tropes, turning the film into a paint-by-numbers affair.

    Cline (one of the stars of Netflix’s Outer Banks) and Wonders (The Studio on Apple TV+, Bodies Bodies Bodies) are the clear stars of the film, but their characters are made into inert scream queens, negating any acting talent they possess. Hauer-King, Withers, and Pidgeon don’t bring anything interesting to their characters, existing merely to have someone else for the killer to go after.

    Even the worst films can have some kind of redeeming value if you look hard enough, but the only thing I Know What You Did Last Summer has to offer is that it becomes so comically bad by the end that you can’t help but laugh at its ineptitude. Both fans of the original and fans of horror movies in general will feel cheated by the experience.

    I Know What You Did Last Summer opens in theaters on July 18.
