Criterion’s October Kiyoshi Kurosawa collection gives you a better Friday-night route than another general new-release roundup: Cloud, the 2024 thriller, is listed at two hours and four minutes. The Channel describes its suspense as bound up with social commentary. If you would rather go back to Kurosawa’s earlier psychological dread, Cure runs one hour and 51 minutes and Pulse one hour and 59. Start with Cloud if you want the more recent work; keep Cure as the fallback. These are current U.S. catalogue listings, not a claim that authenticated playback has been tested.
