Is This Thing On? (2025) 86% 4/5 EDIT “Cooper’s kinetic camerawork and Matthew Libatique’s dynamic cinematography mirrors the exhausting balancing act of middle age perfectly fine without having to spell it out for the audience.” – Little White Lies Jan 27, 2026 Full Review Arco (2025) 91% 5/5 EDIT “Arco is an audacious and deceptively simple depiction of how art, kindness and imagination is innate to humanity and has always been a positive part of progression.” – SciFiNow Jan 16, 2026 Full Review The Running Man (2025) 62% 4/5 EDIT “Wright may drop way too much into the mix with The Running Man but it’s a film that certainly goes for gold and nearly achieves it as an old school Hollywood blockbuster with modern sensibilities.” – SciFiNow Nov 18, 2025 Full Review Wicked: For Good (2025) 66% 4/5 EDIT “The fizzing chemistry between Erivo and Grande and the sound of their otherworldly voices is intoxicating to watch and that’s where the magic of Wicked: For Good truly takes flight.” – SciFiNow Nov 18, 2025 Full Review Bugonia (2025) 88% 4/5 EDIT “Bugonia cleverly comments on a power-hungry society gone awry with scathing wit and huge empathy for those who get caught up in its manipulative cogs.” – SciFiNow Nov 3, 2025 Full Review Roofman (2025) 87% 3/5 EDIT “Cianfrance takes a daring swerve away from his usual melancholic working- class love stories, such as the powerful anti-romance Blue Valentine, to deliver a comedy that delivers big laughs and the occasional thrill.” – Little White Lies Oct 17, 2025 Full Review Sorry, Baby (2025) 97% 3/5 EDIT “This is deeply intuitive and witty filmmaking, with a slow-burn intensity that perfectly matches the soundtrack provided by Lucy Dacus. ” – The List Aug 18, 2025 Full Review Together (2025) 89% 3/5 EDIT “Both actors relish in the comedy with some superbly pitched line delivery.” – Little White Lies Aug 15, 2025 Full Review Bring Her Back (2025) 89% 4/5 EDIT “The entire ensemble cast does great work. ” – Little White Lies Aug 1, 2025 Full Review Superman (2025) 83% 4/5 EDIT “With his Superman reboot, Gunn toys slightly with nostalgia (fans of the quadrilogy from the 1970s/80s will recognise some similar beats) but mostly this is a forward-looking superhero movie that manages to be both heartfelt and thrilling places.” – SciFiNow Jul 11, 2025 Full Review The Shrouds (2024) 75% 4/5 EDIT “A beautiful sci-fi tragicomedy that grows in power the more you consider the ideas it presents. Cronenberg ponders on the contemporary world... with intellectual vigour, absurd humour and visual potency. ” – SciFiNow Jul 11, 2025 Full Review The Life of Chuck (2024) 80% 4/5 EDIT “Some cynics may find parts of the film unbearably sentimental, but following Covid and lockdown, where the world truly thought its time was up, it’s a tonic of a film that delves into the fragile mindset of humanity.” – SciFiNow Jul 3, 2025 Full Review Dangerous Animals (2025) 87% 4/5 EDIT “A pointed deconstruction of masculinity that simultaneously chomps down hard on themes of female loneliness, aspirations and lost opportunities in a world of male violence. It may also be the most romantic shark movie ever made!” – SciFiNow Jun 6, 2025 Full Review Lilo & Stitch (2025) 72% 4/5 EDIT “The manic and loveable dynamic between Lilo and Stitch still remains extremely adorable and moving (get the tissues ready) thanks to great casting and some nifty CG work. ” – SciFiNow Jun 6, 2025 Full Review The Ballad of Wallis Island (2025) 96% 3/5 EDIT “It may be a tad uneven and repetitive in places but it’s also enjoyably sweet and silly.” – Little White Lies May 29, 2025 Full Review Hallow Road (2025) 89% 3/5 EDIT “Gillies’s script asks compelling questions about the lengths parents will go to in order to protect their child but cementing together two genres is a difficult task and it’s one that doesn’t entirely work due to the screenplay’s shaky foundation.” – Little White Lies May 15, 2025 Full Review Sinners (2025) 97% 5/5 EDIT “It’s a film so viscerally shot and effervescent with a blistering, perpetual score by Ludwig Göransson, and sizzling cinematography by Autumn Durald Arkapaw you can almost smell the sex and sweat dripping from the ceiling of the juke joint.” – SciFiNow Apr 18, 2025 Full Review Death of a Unicorn (2025) 52% 3/5 EDIT “The Succession style scenario of a rich family with no morals may be a tad overdone at this point but the Alien inspired visuals of nature fighting back are wildly amusing and sets this fantasy-comedy-horror apart.” – SciFiNow Apr 3, 2025 Full Review The End (2024) 56% 3/5 EDIT “The beating heart of it develops through MacKay’s performance of pure naivety and his burgeoning relationship with Ingram’s Girl. ” – Little White Lies Mar 27, 2025 Full Review In the Lost Lands (2025) 24% 1/5 EDIT “Anderson is generally competent when it comes to memorable action sequences but with In The Lost Lands there’s far more emphasis on the dynamic between its two leads which unfortunately never really takes off.” – SciFiNow Mar 12, 2025 Full Review The People's Joker (2022) 96% 4/5 EDIT “Drew’s radical approach to their coming-of-age trans story is dazzlingly self-assured. It’s a warts-and-all depiction laced with biting humour, sincerity, absurd silliness and rampant DIY creativity from all involved. ” – SciFiNow Feb 18, 2025 Full Review The Monkey (2025) 77% 4/5 EDIT “A blood-and-guts work of art with a personal edge that acknowledges how close the world is to apocalyptic calamity.” – SciFiNow Feb 6, 2025 Full Review Companion (2025) 93% 4/5 EDIT “It’s the perfect date movie sure to cause a fiery debate post-viewing” – SciFiNow Jan 30, 2025 Full Review Presence (2024) 88% 4/5 EDIT “The strong performances from the small cast and the haunting visuals make Presence a genuinely unsettling and tragic ghost story.” – SciFiNow Jan 24, 2025 Full Review The Brutalist (2024) 93% 5/5 EDIT “Corbet has crafted a nuanced examination of how the rich, and in turn capitalism, can brutalise, exploit and misunderstand the skilled creative mind.” – The List Jan 24, 2025 Full Review
