Palm Trees and Power Lines (2022)
It's a compelling, edgy story of exploitation with no easy answers.

Call Jane (2022)
While you know the stakes are high, Call Jane never seems particularly interested in proving it.

Fire of Love (2022)
This film is about wonder, not balance, and it turns us delirious in the white heat of this pair's chaotic, unflinching passion.

Sing 2 (2021)
What Sing 2 does offer is more big musical numbers, lots of eye-popping animation and a sugar-high ending that will delight kids and U2 fans alike.

Breaking (2022)
A mesmerising John Boyega lights a fuse under this poignant but by-the-numbers depiction of an Atlanta bank siege in 2017.

Living (2022)
Nighy has never been better than in this richly rewarding '50s-set drama about a repressed and terminally ill man who discovers life just as it comes to an end.

Amulet (2020)
It all makes for a debut full of promise from the actress-turned-writer-director.

Belfast (2021)
Possibly the most uplifting film ever made about a time of unending violence, Kenneth Branagh's Belfast comes with a bruised heart and an unquenchable spirit of optimism.

As ever with Almodóvar's films, to enter his world is a pleasure - even when we're faced with pain and tough lessons.

Scream (2022)
Inventive, incisive and full of affection for the originals, this is easily the most fun the series has been since Scream 2.

4/5
It's an effervescent movie, one that reflects the colourful whimsy of Wain's work and a far more vivid image of Victorian and Edwardian England than your usual period film.

The King's Man (2021)
Under the perfect tailoring there's an ugly edge, a cynicism that would shock even Bond, and that makes it very hard to cheer on this King or his men.

7 Prisoners (7 prisioneiros) (2021)
If the pay-offaims for the gut and misses, the journey to that point provides a searing microcosm of a corrupt and degrading system.

Licorice Pizza (2021)
Paul Thomas Anderson's sunniest movie yet, this San Fernando Valley palimpsest is so buoyant and bubbly, it practically floats off the screen.

King Richard (2021)
It's to the credit of director Reinaldo Marcus Green and star Will Smith that this film makes the case for its counter-intuitive focal point.

The Card Counter (2021)
For all its moody moralising, The Card Counter is a slowburn bluff with little new to offer.

Eternals (2021)
You have to commend the effort to take the MCU in a different direction, but there's little else worthy of applause.

Gagarine (2020)
Cité Gagarine was demolished in 2020, but it's central to this unusual blend of realist drama and sci-fi fantasia, where life and dreams mix in strange and soulful ways.

No Time To Die (2021)
By whatever metrics you measure a Bond movie -- tight plotting, gnarly villains, emotional sincerity -- Craig's final outing is a rip-roaring success.

Banderas and Martínez play their catty thesps dead straight to generally hilarious effect, while Cruz cuts loose as a fiery artiste prone to dancing the floss in moments of stress.

Prisoners of the Ghostland (2021)
As envisioned by Japanese director Sion Sono, the brains behind blood-drenched show Tokyo Vampire Hotel and flushed turtle-turned kaiju film Love & Peace, it's a hoot.
