MAZE RUNNER: THE DEATH CURE

A solid ending to an entertaining franchise

For a series that promised big-scale, easily digestible entertainment, it’s a damn good place to have finished off. The scale is enormous, both in terms of its visual demands and breakneck narrative.

ON BODY AND SOUL

Feel this film with every fibre of your being

A superb example of filmmaking craft, with stunning visuals, but its somewhat uneven script does create its own challenges. Still, if you want cinema that makes you feel, this is definitely for you.

SUPER TROOPERS 2

Same same and still funny

It may not be the best made movie and it’s not exactly the “thinking man’s comedy”, but it’s comedy nonetheless and it’s going to make someone laugh. Is that someone you? You’d be surprised.

LOVELESS

They call me Mother (Russia)

There’s an undeniable power to this merciless deconstruction of modern Russia and its discontents, and its steadfast refusal to be anything less than ruthlessly unforgiving.

THE GUERNSEY LITERARY AND POTATO PEEL PIE SOCIETY

Post-war romance meets detective story

This is a detective story - with so many players and secrets, the story slowly unfolds. Lily James is, as always, transfixing, Michiel Huisman is handsome, and the supporting cast are all great.

WIN DARKEST HOUR

WIN THE JUNGLE BUNCH

Let the kids show their true stripes

FOXTROT

An unpredictable drama that dances to its own beat

‘Foxtrot’ is emotionally tumultuous, and leaves you feeling battered. You'll be left wondering where the story is headed, as it moves from tragedy to humour and back again in the blink of an eye.

RAMPAGE

No monkeying about

An average action movie with Dwayne Johnson is almost becoming a genre unto itself, but it’s a genre that knows exactly what it is. Maybe that’s why it’s such an enjoyable guilty pleasure!

ENTEBBE

A political thriller missing a real human touch

Aiming to focus on the political tug-of-war and machinations of the event, it lacks any real connection to the people involved. Take it in for the history lesson, but stay for its thrilling finale.

THE PARTY

One decadent evening

A wickedly dark, funny and thought-provoking ride. Not a moment out of place or not needed - it’s a masterpiece, and a party you'll gladly want to attend again.
