★★★ The latest project by Harmony Korine is more of an attack on the senses than a narrative feature, as the experimental filmmaker comments on the blurred lines between video games and real life.
The Electric State (2025)
★★1/2 The latest big-budget release from Netflix fails to capitalise on its promising dystopian premise. Instead it lumbers along without really exploring its central themes surrounding humanity and our reliance on technology.
Mickey 17 (2025)
★★★★ This zany sci-fi satire from Bon Joon-ho may prove to be too wacky for some, but the visionary Korean filmmaker's ability to seamlessly blend genres from scene-to-scene remains unrivalled.
The Last Showgirl (2024)
★★★★ Gia Coppola's beautifully understated homage to the Las Vegas working class sees Pamela Anderson deliver a career best performance in a rare, but refreshing, dramatic role
The Monkey (2025)
★★★1/2 Osgood Perkins abandons the serious tone of the Stephen King short story in favour of a more comedic and off-kilter approach that boasts some unforgettably excessive deaths
Captain America: Brave New World (2025)
★1/2 Contrary to its title, there is nothing brave nor new about the latest instalment in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, as the diminishing superhero franchise continues to re-tread previous entries.
Nickel Boys (2024)
★★★★ RaMell Ross' dauntless creative approach to adapting the Pulitzer Prize winning novel achieves a devastating level of immersion never before seen when exploring African-American trauma
Heart Eyes (2025)
★★★ Without breaking new ground in the genre, this Valentine's Day slasher proves to be an entertaining date night movie that effortlessly combines gory kills with cheesy rom-com clichés
Wolf Man (2025)
★★★ Leigh Whannell's psychological interpretation of the classic movie monster provides a fresh perspective, but ultimately falls short due to a lack of scares and originality
September 5 (2024)
★★★★ By shifting perspective to the journalists who frantically covered the 1972 Munich Massacre, "September 5" manages to capture the dedication and ethical ambiguity of those who broadcasted the tragedy to the rest of the world
