Rich in texture, packed with laughs, and poignant in its macabre portrayal of a futile feud between allies, The Banshees of Inisherin is an accomplished piece of work. It’s an absolute masterclass in tone, a deft balancing act between comedy and tragedy. Recensie

A sharp social satire that challenges our cultural perspectives, Vengeance marks an ambitious debut from B.J. Novak, working both as an engaging crime flick and an outlet for his abundance of ideas. Recensie

An assured and accomplished directorial debut from Neil Maskell, Klokkenluider is terrifically economical with its truth, and executed with a striking flair. Recensie

While Olivia Wilde’s stylish sophomore feature Don’t Worry Darling might feel like an updated version of a movie we’ve seen before, there’s enough quality in Florence Pugh’s magnificent central performance that it seals victory within its plastic-wrapped sheen. Recensie

A fitting finale to the cult comedy trilogy, Clerks III manages the honour the original without tarnishing its legacy. “I’m not even supposed to be here” cries a disgruntled Dante in his now-mimicked mantra, but we’re very glad he showed up for work. Recensie

A deliciously damning indictment of the youth of today, Halina Reijn’s Bodies Bodies Bodies is as cutting as it is comical. Recensie

As gripping as it is grotesquely funny, The Forgiven is a brilliant depiction of despicable characters, and another hit for acclaimed writer and director John Michael McDonagh. Recensie

This subtle sci-fi observation from writer and director Kogonada feels like a watered-down interpretation of more powerful and daring tales of the same ilk. With a striking aesthetic and some strong performances, After Yang is never really dull, but it is ultimately rather boring. Recensie

Malachi Smyth’s The Score has just enough swagger to style out its flaws, even if it’s not always on song. Recensie

Illustrating a skilful flair for crafting suspense, director Andrew Semans manages to display deft control of his protagonist as she loses grip of her sanity. Resurrection marks a striking sophomore effort, elevated by a transfixing turn by Rebecca Hall. Recensie

An impeccably crafted and thought-provoking debut by Charlotte Wells, Aftersun delivers a cocktail of happy hours and heartache, and introduces Frankie Corio as a bright and exciting new talent. Recensie

Owing such a huge debt to the ideas of Stephen King, Derrickson’s latest effort is dragged down by a script that almost bankrupts itself of originality. Despite a madcap leading turn from Ethan Hawke, The Black Phone isn’t as off the hook as it thinks it is. Recensie

Like the protagonist himself, the film refuses to bow to conventions, but deft direction by Jens Sjögren and strong frontman performance from Rushiti combine to give an entertaining origins story of one of football’s greatest superheroes. Recensie

Top Gun: Maverick can be appreciated for its high-intensity, hypersonic action sequences that swoop and soar to new heights but with as many eye rolls as barrel rolls, its cringe was only acceptable in the 80s. Recensie

Between Two Worlds is a well-made and very well-acted commentary on the issues working-class people can come up against, made even more timely by the cost-of-living crisis we are currently experiencing. However, due to the iffy optics of its central character, the film leans too heavily on the side of ‘poverty porn’, lacking the emotional gut-punch you would expect from this type of tale. Recensie

Despite its flaws, it remains a refreshing, entertaining antidote to the more mainstream efforts of this ilk, and the Daniels are an absolute credit to original, independent filmmaking. Recensie

Splashing his well-earned creative currency on a grandiose pagan pagger, Robert Eggers is visibly growing in confidence and The Northman only strengthens his stature. With just the right amount of weird, it’s an ambitious, almighty feat of filmmaking that sacrifices none of the visionary director’s mythical madness. Recensie

Off the back of an often stuffy and serious awards season, popcorn flick The Lost City is a fantastic antidote to this; mindless but very entertaining. It heavily relies upon the screen presence and winning spark of Sandra Bullock and Channing Tatum, but they definitely deliver the goods, reminding us why they’re both class acts in this field of cinema.

A striking sophomore effort from director Audrey Diwan, Happening is an incredibly challenging yet vital piece of work that presents itself as a timely social-issue thriller. Not for the faint-hearted but well worth watching through your hands in horror. Recensie

Presenting a refreshing modern-day slant on the genre, The Worst Person in the World is a romance dramedy that should have universal appeal. Trier has completed his triptych of Nordic tales with a flourish, and a winning portrayal from Renate Reinsve turns ordinary problems into extraordinary cinema. Recensie

Leaning into the farcical nature of its story, Howard J. Ford’s The Ledge makes the very most of the platform it gets to play on by crafting some gripping set pieces. As the villains become almost pantomime-esque in their portrayals, it makes it fun and easy to root for Brittany Ashworth in this amusingly far-fetched thriller. Recensie
