This week’s new entertainment releases include new music from Spoon and Mary J. Blige, Jennifer Lopez starring in the Valentine's Day romantic comedy “Marry Me,” and Gugu Mbatha-Raw and David Oyelowo being thrilling in HBO Max’s “The Girl Before.” Amazon Studios, too, has its own prominent rom-com offering, starring Charlie Day and Jenny Slate. In “I Want You Back,” they play a pair of dumped 30-somethings stewing over their breakups. And Puppy Bowl is back! The event rides the coattails of that other, puppy-less bowl game and for the good cause of showcasing animal shelters, their dedicated staffers and the furry residents in need of homes.
