4/5
The Devil Wears Prada 2 (2026) James Mottram With a sharp script penned by Aline Brosh McKenna, who also wrote the original movie, TDWP2 does what all good sequels should do, and goes bigger and bolder.

Sometimes They Come Back... for More (1998) Alan Jones Berk uses the locations with considerable visual flair and, although it does peter out as it wends its way to a hokey conclusion, the journey offers numerous rewards and surprises.

Sometimes They Come Back... Again (1996) Radio Times Staff Sometimes They Come Back ... Again is slickly produced, but after a while you begin to wonder why all this supernatural stuff keeps happening in this particular town.

4/5
Power to the People: John & Yoko Live in NYC (2026) Terry Staunton It's a visual treat, often employing split-screen effects that give viewers a more intimate sense of proceedings, and the man of the hour, alongside Yoko Ono and backed by the New York-based band Elephant's Memory, is effortlessly charismatic throughout.

undertone (2025) Terry Staunton This particular Undertone is ultimately, frustratingly, under-cooked and underwhelming.

The Magic Faraway Tree (2026) Patrick Cremona However, there's more than enough whimsical appeal to charm younger audiences, and a parade of famous faces from the British comedy scene provide an abundance of amusing moments.

The Drama (2026) Max Copeman By the time a killer final scene rolls around, The Drama is somewhat limping over the line, but its leads lend a crucial heartbeat to a film frustratingly engineered for discourse, not depth.

Couture (2025) Terry Staunton Although all three leads acquit themselves well, only Jolie's character has a well-defined, substantive arc.

Only Rebels Win (2026) James Mottram With Abbass offering a subtle turn and newcomer Benrachid more than a match, this is a mature, sensitive look at the way love can strike, even under the most difficult circumstances.

Rose (2026) James Mottram Unhurried pacing, first-rate performances and moody cinematography combine to create a resonant study of a woman's journey through a man's world.

Mouse (2026) James Mottram Featuring a potent turn from Frasier star David Hyde Pierce as the school's theatre teacher, this is a thoughtful, classy drama.

Outcome (2026) James Mottram An assured Reeves brings some soul to Reef, while starry cameos - Drew Barrymore as herself, Martin Scorsese as Reef's first manager - sprinkle much-needed glamour.

Miroirs No. 3 (2025) Tom Dawson Drawing on elements of fairy tales and doppelganger stories, alongside visual markers of rural Americana, Mirrors No. 3 combines a dreamlike sensibility with carefully understated performances.

4/5
2000 Meters to Andriivka (2025) David Parkinson Highlighting the humbling ordinariness of the combatants and their poignant camaraderie, Chernov refuses to spare us when it comes to casualties. Despair creeps into his voiceover, but weariness can't sap the zeal of the volunteers...

La venue de l'avenir (2025) Terry Staunton Klapisch occasionally plays fast and loose with historical accuracy to better serve his intentions, but that can be forgiven in the face of a strong and gifted ensemble cast.

2/5
Lee Cronin's The Mummy (2026) Chezelle Bingham Tonally, it is uneven, too, often attempting to mix humour with horror, but settling on neither, and the problem is further complicated by some shaky performances.

2/5
Glenrothan (2025) Patrick Cremona Combined with an overegged score and unconvincing dialogue, it adds up to a plodding drama where virtually every choice is the most basic one.

4/5
Holy Cow (2024) Dave Golder With bawdy humour, gorgeous scenery, deadpan performances, adolescent cheek, fumbling sex and a far-too-detailed calf's breech birth sequence, this is a compelling debut feature from director Louise Courvoisier.

Departures (2025) Kevin Harley With persuasive turns from Eyre-Morgan and Tag, and an amusingly brash cameo from Lorraine Stanley as Benji's zero-filters mum, Departures ensures you care about its characters in all their flaws.

2/5
Balls Up (2026) Calum Baker Scripted by the writers of Deadpool, this has a fatally misshapen, ultimately unengaging plot that pinballs the pair from the boardroom to unemployment to the World Cup final and to jail, with the film's second half taking place in the rainforest.

Blades of the Guardians (2026) Sean McGeady Highlights include a duel staged in a sandstorm raging with such velocity that its combatants can't stay on their feet. Even at 80, Yuen remains untouchable.

Leaves From Satan's Book (1921) David Parkinson The finale is easily the most accomplished sequence cinematically, with Clara Pontoppidan's death being a moving montage of meticulously matched close-ups.

Blow the Man Down (2019) Jayne Nelson Luckily, the film regains some vigour thanks to flashes of dark humour and an inspired soundtrack full of hearty, lung-expanding sea shanties.

Grandma's Boy (1922) David Parkinson The shrunken suit and the mothballs in the candy sequences rank among the highlights. But this is a delight throughout.

Manhatta (1921) David Parkinson Shown as a trailer in the States and exhibited at a French Dadaist happening, it was subsequently hailed as the keystone of the American avant-garde.

The Informer (1929) David Parkinson The performances are admirably restrained, although Swede Lars Hanson lacks the mix of menace and vulnerability that earned Victor McLaglen the Academy Award for best actor in the same role.

4/5
Secrets of a Soul (1926) David Parkinson Predominantly shot in the camera, the multiple superimpositions achieved by cinematographers Robert Lach, Curt Oertel and Guido Seeber have lost none of their extraordinary potency, although Freud, apparently, wasn't impressed.

3/5
Laugh, Clown, Laugh (1928) David Parkinson In her first starring role, the 15-year-old Young is enchantingly natural. But it's Chaney's command of mime—whether slapsticking with Siegel or suppressing his bruised emotions—that makes this hoary and dated melodrama so moving.

4/5
Strass (2002) David Parkinson Pierre Lekeux and Lionel Bourguet excel as the feuding tutors, but everyone is so in the slot that it's often easy to forget you're watching a spoof.

3/5
Bullet Scars (1942) David Parkinson Director D Ross Lederman struggles to generate much suspense, but he deftly plumbs comic relief from Ben Welden's hypochondriac sidekick and makes nifty use of a hay truck during a couple of high-stakes set-pieces.

The Ace of Hearts (1921) David Parkinson The introduction of his sinister vigilante bureau is splendidly atmospheric and quite contentious, given its anti-capitalist stance just four years after the rise of Bolshevism.

Hospital (1970) Calum Baker Far from gentle, this is nonetheless a compelling and deeply moving film with an unforced humanism shining through the sometimes grim and grimy footage.

Basic Training (1971) Calum Baker This is a thoughtful piece but generally restates ideas about institutions and conformity that the film-maker would cover more comprehensively elsewhere.

From Beyond (1986) Robert Sellers This demented tale is sloppily directed, but once it gets going after a stalled start you can't fault its energy and audacity.

Top Gun (1986) David Parkinson There is no denying the quality and entertainment value of the flying sequences... But the rivalry between Tom Cruise and Val Kilmer, and Cruise's tempestuous affair with Kelly McGillis, are pure bunk.

Sunny Dancer (2026) James Mottram While it might be difficult to call the film upbeat, it is sharply funny, shrewdly directed and catches the rhythms of teen interactions just so.

Beautiful City (2004) David Parkinson The humanism that has informed much Iranian cinema since the late 1980s is readily evident in Asghar Farhadi's affecting and often gently amusing drama.

Between Two Women (2004) Sloan Freer A poignant and sharply observant social commentary interlaced with the most tender romance, it superbly captures the interclass friction of late 1950s Yorkshire.

Night Stage (2025) Josh Winning A shame, because while the film flirts with edgy, timely topics, it fails to take the kinds of risks that would make it thrilling instead of merely intriguing.

They Will Kill You (2026) Rosie Fletcher What starts as a tense home-invasion film becomes a funny and gory body-horror that stylistically echoes what might be John Wick: the Video Game.

Everybody Digs Bill Evans (2026) James Mottram Danielsen Lie truly inhabits Evans, and spars well with Pullman, who effortlessly plays the father figure. Their drunken pow-wow in a bar is simply priceless.

Nightborn (2026) James Mottram Grint is good value as the ineffectual hubbie, but - just as with pregnancy - it's the woman who does the work, with an exquisite, earthy turn from Haarla.

A Prayer for the Dying (2026) James Mottram Reilly brings his usual quirky charm, but even he can't save this from its largely soporific feel. An inventive, try-hard movie that sadly never comes off.
