2/5
The Bad News Bears in Breaking Training (1977) David Parkinson This far-fetched sports comedy sequel is sentimental to the point of patronising and overburdened with coy insights into growing up.

3/5
Apnas (2026) Terry Staunton Traditional values clash with tough urban realities in this compelling crime drama inspired by real events.

5/5
High School (1969) Calum Baker For all its focus and specificity, the film remains a timeless study in authority more generally.

4/5
New Life (2023) Steve Morrissey The accomplished leads add depth to their archetypal roles as hunter and hunted, making this a most unpredictable tale in which we're never entirely sure who to root for.

3/5
The Walking Target (1960) David Parkinson Foster makes an edgy antihero and there's a pleasing snap to his exchanges with Anders's blowsy blonde fatale and Harp McGuire's bullet-headed cop.

4/5
Togo (2019) Dave Golder It is unashamedly sentimental feel-good fare, with lots of cute furry critters, some nailbiting action, and plenty of breathtaking mountainscapes.

3/5
The Stranglers of Bombay (1960) David Parkinson Hammer wasn't aiming for subtlety; the film was advertised as being filmed in widescreen Strangloscope, and some of the violence is still shocking.

3/5
Fear No More (1961) David Parkinson The twist isn't difficult to guess, but Wiesen plays his hand shrewdly to stack the odds against the excellent Powers.

5/5
Network (1976) Calum Baker Lumet keeps the pace up throughout his marvellously edited film, with the actors - three of whom won Oscars - doing stellar work, remaining utterly believable even at their most absurd and verbose.

The Orphans (2025) James Mottram There's nothing wildly original here.

Man Finds Tape (2025) Steve Morrissey An ambitious, auspicious debut.

3/5
A Pale View of Hills (2025) Kevin Harley The story comes to fitful life in the hands of Hirose and Nikaido, whose mirrored turns tease out themes of trauma and selfhood with absorbing subtlety.

4/5
California Schemin' (2025) Rosie Fletcher This is frenetic fun packed with nostalgia - a euphoric rags-to-riches-to-rags movie that is no less energetic and enjoyable for the fact that it's a bit predictable.
Posted Mar 23, 2026  Edit critic review
4/5
DJ Ahmet (2025) Matt Glasby The result feels universal because it acknowledges that everyone was young and yearning once.

4/5
My Undesirable Friends: Part I - Last Air in Moscow (2024) James Mottram In a society where journalists are imprisoned for treason and writing about the normality of gay families can get you branded an "extremist terrorist", this terrific, terrifying film shows that speaking truth to power requires more than catchy slogans.
Posted Mar 23, 2026  Edit critic review
3/5
How to Make a Killing (2026) Max Copeman It is adequately watchable and aims to be keenly modern, but is undercut by a failure to escape roots in a British film from 1949.
Posted Mar 23, 2026  Edit critic review
3/5
THE BRIDE! (2026) Jeremy Aspinall Gyllenhaal should be applauded for her ambition, stylish flourishes and obvious respect for the original film.
Posted Mar 23, 2026  Edit critic review
3/5
Scream 7 (2026) Terry Staunton Represents a kind of homecoming, with the return of both the franchise’s most enduring heroine and the man who created the whole business 30 years ago contributing hugely to a horror that’s by no means perfect but isn’t short on pizzazz.
Posted Mar 23, 2026  Edit critic review
3/5
War Machine (2026) Jayne Nelson That said, the film also delights in showing blood, bones and guts, so be warned if you're not in the mood for a glut of flying viscera.

3/5
The Second Civil War (1997) Maj Canton Dante piles on the social satire without resorting to preachiness.
Posted Mar 23, 2026  Edit critic review
2/5
The Astronaut (2025) Jayne Nelson Architecture fans will surely enjoy the gorgeous glass-walled house with its stunning green views; the film's finale is effective, too. But there's a chance you'll have aborted this mission long before that arrives.

4/5
Sketch (2024) Terry Staunton Hale, best known for comic TV roles in Arrested Development and Veep, proves himself to be a gentle and subtle dramatic actor, especially in one-on-one scenes with the impressively gifted Belle.

2/5
In the Blink of an Eye (2026) Terry Staunton The past, present and future of humankind are explored in this muddled sci-fi fable whose three interwoven tales infuriate more than enlighten.

4/5
Hoppers (2026) Emma Simmonds This warm, extremely witty and wonderfully entertaining film is sure to delight the whole family, whilst spreading a positive message about living side-by-side with nature and not judging our fellow humans too harshly.

4/5
All the Empty Rooms (2025) Calum Baker Between each scene, the reporter shares his motivations for the project, which provides its own moving subplot

Kokuho (2025) Steve Morrissey It may be too restrained for some, but there are spectacular visuals and gorgeous costumes to feast the eyes on.
Posted Mar 23, 2026  Edit critic review
4/5
Arco (2025) Alan Jones The plot essentially retreads ET the Extra-Terrestrial and shares many of that classic film's charming entertainment qualities.
Posted Mar 23, 2026  Edit critic review
4/5
Anastasia (1956) Sue Heal A clever, insightful script puts flesh on the bones of an already intriguing mystery, but it is Bergman who makes this a minor classic.
Posted Mar 06, 2026  Edit critic review
3/5
Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man (2026) Terry Staunton Knight and Harper nonetheless manage to construct a robust story that doesn’t necessarily require viewers to have deep knowledge of the Peaky Blinders’ past, keeping a firm red right hand on proceedings.
Posted Mar 05, 2026  Edit critic review
4/5
A Want in Her (2024) Tom Dawson The film doesn't offer simplistic solutions, but elegantly explores difficult questions about accountability and responsibility towards loved ones consumed by self-destructive behaviour.
Posted Mar 04, 2026  Edit critic review
3/5
The Moment (2026) James Mottram At its heart, Charli is an able performer, capable of playing herself without ever feeling self-conscious.

3/5
Else (2024) Matt Glasby Between the slower stretches and experimental eccentricities, it is, at times, genuinely nightmarish.

Belén (2025) Jayne Nelson This harrowing story is handled sensitively, with superb performances from the central duo and a rich supporting cast.

4/5
Crime 101 (2026) Jeremy Aspinall Meanwhile, Layton sustains the slow-burning tension, punctuated occasionally by some riveting chases, as the quartet circle each other on the way to a nerve-jangling, edge-of-your-seat climax where the outcome is anything but predictable.
Posted Mar 04, 2026  Edit critic review
2/5
Dolly (2025) Rosie Fletcher Dolly is tiresome, grim, and overlong at 82 minutes.
Posted Mar 04, 2026  Edit critic review
3/5
Whistle (2025) Terry Staunton Keen hits all the right notes as the reserved but plucky heroine, and Sky Yang impresses as her dorky cousin turned man of action.
Posted Mar 04, 2026  Edit critic review
4/5
EPiC: Elvis Presley in Concert (2025) Terry Staunton It's a joy to watch a superstar who clearly enjoys goofing around with a tight-knit group he trusts implicitly, and oozes easy charm in front of an audience.
Posted Mar 04, 2026  Edit critic review
3/5
The Swedish Connection (2026) Calum Baker Its wry take on the surprising power of paperwork, and its depiction of plain, simple humanity in the face of official appeasement rings true enough to grow genuinely affecting.
Posted Mar 04, 2026  Edit critic review
3/5
Last Ride (2023) Jayne Nelson A few scares are also rustled up by writer/director Cinqué Lee, who ably shifts this out of the realm of disaster movie and into chilly horror.

4/5
Cold Storage (2026) Alan Jones Part apocalyptic zombie shocker, part alien conspiracy thriller, Jurassic Park screenwriter David Koepp's novel receives a fun, scary adaptation crammed with splatter action and mordant wit.

4/5
Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die (2025) Rosie Fletcher Gore Verbinski’s hog-wild time travel tale is audacious, fresh and a massive amount of fun, even though it falls over in a confusing final act.

Turner & Constable (2026) Terry Staunton Proof positive that a picture can paint a thousand words.

The Bluff (2026) Dave Golder A spirited cast, slick cinematography, visceral fight scenes and designer action give it a certain swagger.

One Last Deal (2018) Matt Glasby Still, there are worse ways to spend 90 minutes.

3/5
Girl (2023) Rosie Fletcher The film is slow to the point of sluggish, and might have benefited from a dash more plot. However, the performances are exceptional, nicely complementing the atmospheric visuals.
Posted Mar 04, 2026  Edit critic review
2/5
Orphan: First Kill (2022) Terry Staunton The trickery isn't always as accomplished as it could be, distracting from a narrative which already stretches credulity.
Posted Mar 04, 2026  Edit critic review
2/5
The Devil's Partner (1960) Matt Glasby Glacially paced, and stretched at just 73 minutes, this is one for completists only.

3/5
Innocent Meeting (1959) David Parkinson Director Godfrey Grayson makes solid use of his location footage, while encouraging the cross-class chemistry between Lynch and Rogan.

5/5
Heimat 2: Chronicle of a Generation (1992) David Parkinson Not one second of its 1,500-plus minutes is wasted, as Reitz chronicles the social, cultural and political experiences of a group of friends at the Munich conservatoire in the 1960s.
Posted Mar 04, 2026  Edit critic review
5/5
Las acacias (2010) Trevor Johnston There's such wisdom, though, in the way it cumulatively touches our hearts, and the performers seem to live out their roles in a way that almost goes beyond acting. Once it reels you in, this is absolutely captivating.
