No Other Choice (2025) 97% 5/5 EDIT “Cut it, print it. These are brutal executions, brilliantly executed. Director Park has said he wants No Other Choice to be his “masterpiece” and he may well have done it. Hopefully he won’t be jobless any time soon.” – Empire Magazine Jan 22, 2026 Full Review The Dive (2023) 66% 3/5 EDIT “The Dive uses its underwater setting to add new thrills to a formulaic survivalist story, even if its attempts at emotional depth end up feeling a little shallow.” – Empire Magazine Aug 24, 2023 Full Review Suzume (2022) 96% 4/5 EDIT “Visually striking and emotionally poignant, Suzume manages to combine hilarity and heartache, in its heightened, therapeutic, if slightly unwieldy, narrative.” – Empire Magazine Apr 12, 2023 Full Review Violent Night (2022) 74% 2/5 EDIT “With such a fun riff on the Santa story, it should’ve been good for goodness sake!” – Empire Magazine Nov 30, 2022 Full Review Funny Pages (2022) 82% 4/5 EDIT “Whilst there’s not much emotion to cling on to, the parade of uniquely absurd characters and agonising situations make it a real page turner.” – Empire Magazine Sep 17, 2022 Full Review Me Time (2022) 7% 2/5 EDIT “Me Time takes an interesting family dynamic and hides it under crass jokes and hackneyed stunts.” – Empire Magazine Sep 2, 2022 Full Review Top Gun: Maverick (2022) 96% 3/5 EDIT “Top Gun: Maverick is an extremely enjoyable thrill ride, yet its focus on intense, immersive action doesn’t allow much room for lighter, steamier fun like its predecessor.” – Little White Lies May 16, 2022 Full Review Casablanca Beats (2021) 86% 3/5 EDIT “The lesson plan is familiar, but it’s still worth attending this school of rap.” – Empire Magazine Apr 29, 2022 Full Review Hive (2021) 100% 4/5 EDIT “Hive cooks up a beautifully delicate rally for independence and justice, brought out through precise processes of the communal culinary experience.” – Empire Magazine Mar 18, 2022 Full Review Wheel of Fortune and Fantasy (2021) 99% 4/5 EDIT “If not Hamaguchi’s best, this is a gracefully performed and expertly detailed collection of stories, revealing the delicate and unassuming magic to be found in simple conversation.” – Empire Magazine Feb 9, 2022 Full Review Memoria (2021) 90% 4/5 EDIT “Designed and deserving to be seen big and loud, Memoria is a hypnotic, unquantifiable, occasionally inpenetrable sonic odyssey from a unique cinematic voice.” – Empire Magazine Jan 17, 2022 Full Review Natural Light (2021) 68% 3/5 EDIT “The forceful imagery and acute sound design make Natural Light worth surrendering to, but a frail narrative may leave you feeling like you're in no man's land.” – Empire Magazine Nov 11, 2021 Full Review Gagarine (2020) 95% 4/5 EDIT “Filled with imaginative, vibrant visuals and an (inter) stellar lead performance, despite some flourishes that miss their landing, Gagarine's voyage is one well worth joining.” – Empire Magazine Oct 2, 2021 Full Review The Truffle Hunters (2020) 97% 3/5 EDIT “Its gnarled, subterranean subject may be shrouded in a biblical halo, but The Truffle Hunters sublime focus on the natural world and both its flora and fauna inhabitants offers calming reassurance for the unwashed.” – Little White Lies Jul 10, 2021 Full Review Spaceship Earth (2020) 87% 4/5 EDIT “Spaceship Earth achieves the goal of the Synergists - to highlight the friction between finance and innovation, corporation and environmental exploitation, and our own non-cyclical relationship with our planet” – NME (New Musical Express) Jun 18, 2021 Full Review Trolls World Tour (2020) 72% 3/5 EDIT “Far from perfect, but a Troll lot to love.” – Little White Lies Apr 6, 2020 Full Review The Bears' Famous Invasion of Sicily (2019) 100% EDIT “Mattotti's skill as a designer, along with a team of animators he has described as "monastic scribes", comes to life when the worlds of bear and human collide.” – Little White Lies May 23, 2019 Full Review The Kid Who Would Be King (2019) 90% 4/5 EDIT “A crowning achievement.” – Little White Lies Feb 15, 2019 Full Review
