Full Time is an emotionally investing and beautifully acted tale that feels relatable, important and engaging. However, its endless anxiety-inducing stress levels could have benefitted from a more cohesive protagonist goal. Review

Christian Bale brings an energy and enthusiasm to the project that helps to cover up the comfortability, lack of energy and sheer ineptitude of the rest of this been there, done that project. Review

Elvis is a thrill ride, but one anchored by a career-making performance from Austin Butler that sustains you through the twists, turns and gaudy showmanship of Baz Luhrman’s Hounddog scored fever dream. Review

Jurassic World: Dominion is the sort of IP draining franchise instalment that sustains itself with fan service, while not only not delivering any sense of the new or creative, but actively subverting the few original ideas in the previous movie to return to familiar paths. Review

Last Seen Alive is poorly produced, with a terrible plot, some horrible characters, and a production quality that beggars belief. It’s also a film single-handedly saved by Gerard Butler, who somehow, amidst this absolute mess, delivers a bit of a fresh take on a character we’ve seen before. Review

An underwhelming and largely unambitious take on the multiverse, that throws opts for jump scares and cameos rather than character development and fresh takes. Review

Nic Cage is back, with a meta action/comedy that holds your interest, examines his fame, while also adroitly plumbing the depths of his back catalogue. Review

Muddled, with flashes of brilliance, but an overall sense of ‘why?’, Morbius is a film that isn’t so much bad or good, as confusing. Review

The Lost City isn’t discovering any new wonders here, but its familiar formula is well-balanced, and frequently hilarious. This is a fun action flick, that we hope heralds the return of the adventure movie. Review
