Years and years of forgettable genre garbo earned January a reputation in Hollywood — a cold month for colder leftovers. But thanks to the likes of Gerard Butler and Jason Statham, plus a greater respect among the Letterboxd crowd for beat-’em-up superstars, the month has become something like Oscar season for action heads. This year, with Greenland 2 and Shelter arriving within weeks of each other, director Ric Roman Waugh has grabbed the crown of this reborn month. He is the king of January movies.
Shelter and Greenland 2 hail from the same action-thriller guru

It’s interesting to see how January has become a notable time for action-thriller releases, especially with Shelter and Greenland 2 coming from such a well-known creator. It will be exciting to see if these films can break the trend and offer something memorable. Looking forward to hearing more about them!
