Weekend Films: Downhill, Fantasy Island, Sonic the Hedgehog and The Photograph

How are you guys post Valentine's Day? I hope you had a fantastic day and received some fabulous gifts (and treating yourself totally counts). So, who's going to the movies this weekend? Which one are you going to see? There are four that I'm interesting in seeing: Downhill (dramedy), Fantasy Island (horror), Sonic the Hedgehog (action/adventure) and The Photograph (romance).

I'm not sure which one to see first because I really want to see all of them. I also want to see Birds of Prey again, I'll figure it out once I go to the theatre.
