The Howling
(1981)
|
Mark Dinning
|
Seminal 80s scream queen Wallace whips up the perfect blend of vulnerability and sass, enlivening an already witty script and lending genuine pathos to the killer finale.

Dead Man's Wire
(2025)
|
John Nugent
|
Van Sant’s previous historical fictions have been more incisive, but this is a tense crime thriller, with a solid new addition to Bill Skarsgård’s rogues’ gallery of scumbags.

A special sort of film, one which can be enjoyed as a dark climate-change allegory and a bright, colourful, emotional yarn on friendship and family. Fantastique!

In the Blink of an Eye
(2026)
|
A.A. Dowd
|
Director Andrew Stanton weaves together three different stories across three different eras of human history. The result is a streaming epic as painfully sappy as it is structurally ambitious.

Scarlet
(2025)
|
Kambole Campbell
|
Mamoru Hosoda’s continuing experiments with animation are passable enough. But it’s not enough to uplift this loose adaptation of a literary classic with its rather clumsy thesis on cycles of violence.

Ready or Not 2: Here I Come
(2026)
|
Harry Stainer
|
Round two’s double-or-nothing approach means there are fewer surprises this time around. Yet as Weaving’s endlessly watchable bride gets even bloodier, it’s hard not to crack a smile at the relentless fun.

Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man
(2026)
|
Dan Jolin

With its edgy style intact, The Immortal Man never takes its eye off the Peaky faithful. But keeping the fans happy is a double-edged sword, as it can’t help but just feel like an extra-long episode rather than a standalone cinematic experience.

This daft heartbreaker’s most sophisticated boast is that it principals are chatting in Italian. Not that it should be painted as a bad film, it is lovely looking and very sweet, only a one-dimensionally limited one.
