★★★1/2 Though weighed down by a clunky structure and missing an emotional anchor, Christopher Nolan's thunderous retelling of the epic Greek poem largely triumphs with unforgettable set-pieces and a rewarding finale.
The Odyssey (2026)
Minions & Monsters (2026)
★★★1/2 Just when it looked like the Minions had run out of steam, they come roaring back with perhaps their most dazzling adventure in years, serving up a wildly clever and joyfully slapstick love letter to classic cinema.
Jackass: Best and Last (2026)
★★★★ The last film in the Jackass series is a wild, hilarious and unexpectedly heartfelt tribute to the members, whose unbreakable bond and fearless commitment have created a legacy of unforgettable, wince-inducing memories.
Supergirl (2026)
★★★ The latest DCU instalment has its moments, especially thanks to Milly Alcock, who infuses her Kryptonian heroine with undeniable swagger. Sadly, the fresh energy of the first half fades as the story slips into predictable comic book territory.
Disclosure Day (2026)
★★★ Emily Blunt shines in Spielberg's latest science fiction spectacle. Yet, for all its grand ideas, the film stumbles, lacking a clear narrative thread, sprawling into an overstuffed, meandering journey that disappointingly often slips into tedium.
The Mandalorian and Grogu (2026)
★★★ This might just be the most uninspired Star Wars theatrical outing yet, shuffling a flimsy script from scene to scene with the rhythm of a forgettable TV episode. Still, I found myself unexpectedly charmed by the titular duo.
Hokum (2026)
★★★★ With Adam Scott's sceptical fish-out-of-water protagonist occupying a spooky Irish hotel room, Damian McCarthy's spine-tingling folk horror conjures up the scares and atmosphere reminiscent of a classic Hammer production.
Nirvanna the Band the Show the Movie (2025)
★★★★1/2 In this feature-length follow-up to the cult web series, the Toronto due perfects guerrilla filmmaking, slyly weaving a witty time-travel tale with never-seen-before footage to create a wildly entertaining and hilarious adventure.
The Super Mario Galaxy Movie (2026)
★★ With its whirlwind pace and a treasure trove of Nintendo easter eggs, this sequel is sure to dazzle younger fans, yet it never quite crafts the epic, galaxy-wide adventure that made the original game legendary.
Ready or Not 2: Here I Come (2026)
★★★1/2 Though it may not match its predecessor's originality and shock value, this fun comedy-horror sequel cranks up the gore and lore as our blood-soaked bride battles yet another sinister clan of wealthy cultists.
