A HOUSE OF DYNAMITE (2025) 75% 4/5 EDIT “The most entertaining Hollywood movie on the subject of potential mass destruction since Stanley Kubrick's Dr Strangelove. ” – Independent (UK) Sep 2, 2025 Full Review The Smashing Machine (2025) 70% 4/5 EDIT “This is the most raw and vulnerable that Johnson has ever been on screen. Once you’ve seen him this exposed, you won’t watch his typical action movie stunts in quite the same way ever again.” – Independent (UK) Sep 1, 2025 Full Review The Wizard of the Kremlin (2025) 49% 3/5 EDIT “It’s ultimately very short on emotional heft – its characters are sketchily drawn, and Vadim is a strangely aloof figure, his motivations impossible to fathom. ” – Independent (UK) Aug 31, 2025 Full Review Frankenstein (2025) 85% 3/5 EDIT “For all Del Toro’s formal mastery, this Frankenstein is ultimately short of the voltage needed really to bring it to life.” – Independent (UK) Aug 30, 2025 Full Review Jay Kelly (2025) 75% 4/5 EDIT “If [George Clooney] is playing yet another variation on himself in Jay Kelly, at least he’s doing so in a far more raw and revealing way than he has ever done before. ” – Independent (UK) Aug 28, 2025 Full Review Highest 2 Lowest (2025) 83% 3/5 EDIT “Their latest collaboration, Highest 2 Lowest, is an entertaining crime thriller -- but it seems sketchy and lightweight when set against some of their previous movies together, most notably 1992’s Malcolm X.” – Independent (UK) May 19, 2025 Full Review The Phoenician Scheme (2025) 77% 4/5 EDIT “Each scene contains something to savour – a goofy visual gag, some deadpan dialogue or the use of a surprising prop.” – Independent (UK) May 18, 2025 Full Review Hot Milk (2025) 37% 4/5 EDIT “This is slippery, subversive storytelling that’s very hard to get any firm grasp on -- but that is one of its main pleasures. ” – Independent (UK) Feb 19, 2025 Full Review Dreams (2025) 68% 3/5 EDIT “Franco provides a platform for his two leads, Jessica Chastain and Isaac Hernández, to give blisteringly intense performances. But the film would surely have benefitted from a little more nuance and delicacy.” – Independent (UK) Feb 18, 2025 Full Review Blue Moon (2025) 90% 3/5 EDIT “Very much a minor effort in the Linklater canon... [Blue Moon] boasts a fine, quirky and courageous performance from Ethan Hawke, but it's a stagey affair which at times becomes very stilted.” – Independent (UK) Feb 18, 2025 Full Review Amsterdam (2022) 31% 3/5 EDIT “In the end, though, Amsterdam is a frustrating affair, let down by its own inanity and wayward plotting.” – iNews.co.uk Jan 17, 2025 Full Review All Quiet on the Western Front (2022) 90% 3/5 EDIT “This is a brutal, brilliantly shot movie, which nonetheless can’t help but feel a little derivative.” – iNews.co.uk Jan 17, 2025 Full Review Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery (2022) 91% 3/5 EDIT “The protagonists may make you recoil in disgust but the film itself is ultimately plenty of fun.” – iNews.co.uk Jan 17, 2025 Full Review The Banshees of Inisherin (2022) 96% 4/5 EDIT “Brilliantly performed by Irish cinema’s favourite odd couple Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson, Martin McDonagh's latest is as dark and absurd as any Samuel Beckett play.” – iNews.co.uk Jan 17, 2025 Full Review Triangle of Sadness (2022) 72% 4/5 EDIT “Has little new to say about human greed but the acting and comic observation is superb” – iNews.co.uk Jan 17, 2025 Full Review Armageddon Time (2022) 77% 4/5 EDIT “James Gray’s autobiographical coming-of-age drama contains a fierce, unsentimental performance from Banks Repeta - and a marvellous 80s New York atmosphere.” – iNews.co.uk Jan 17, 2025 Full Review M3GAN (2022) 93% 4/5 EDIT “Allison Williams stars in Gerard Johnstone's ingenious film about a young girl and her eerily lifelike doll companion.” – iNews.co.uk Jan 17, 2025 Full Review She Came to Me (2023) 48% 3/5 EDIT “Rebecca Miller's new film might steer dangerously close to whimsy, but it’s witty and charming, and Marisa Tomei steals every scene.” – iNews.co.uk Jan 17, 2025 Full Review The Son (2022) 29% 2/5 EDIT “This is a film that is never as harrowing or moving as it should be.” – iNews.co.uk Jan 17, 2025 Full Review Scream VI (2023) 77% 2/5 EDIT “This latest instalment stabs itself in the foot at the outset by lurching even further into self-parody than its predecessor.” – iNews.co.uk Jan 17, 2025 Full Review Shazam! Fury of the Gods (2023) 49% 2/5 EDIT “It flickers into life now and again but ultimately lacks the spark and energy of the best DC superhero pictures.” – iNews.co.uk Jan 17, 2025 Full Review Allelujah (2022) 38% 3/5 EDIT “This soapy celebration of our national health service is moving and uplifting...” – iNews.co.uk Jan 17, 2025 Full Review The Exorcism (2024) 26% 3/5 EDIT “It turns into just another dispiriting pastiche of the original Exorcist – but sadly without its intelligence or its malevolent sense of dread.” – iNews.co.uk Jan 17, 2025 Full Review Rodeo (2022) 80% 4/5 EDIT “The plot might be as full of holes as some of the roads on which Julia races her bike, but this makes for an invigorating ride.” – iNews.co.uk Jan 17, 2025 Full Review Fast X (2023) 56% 3/5 EDIT “Sure, there's massive plot holes, but the latest in this unstoppable franchise is still undeniably fun.” – iNews.co.uk Jan 17, 2025 Full Review
