28 Years Later: The Bone Temple (2026) Ian Bunting A middle chapter The Bone Temple may be, but with instantly iconic characters and visual and audio moments among the series’ finest, it’s a cracking show of strength by DaCosta.

Predators (2025) Ian Bunting Predators is as gripping as its subject matter - with no easy answers or ideologies thrust upon you - and whether you watched To Catch A Predator or not, it will grab your attention throughout.

Influencers (2025) Ian Bunting The picturesque French landscapes are a joy to behold and the frequently used and spotted ancient ruins provide a threatening, dangerous backdrop.

The Sure Thing (1985) Gordon Irving Very funny in parts, this love story, and the soundtrack has Lionel Richie plus Rod Stewart.

Confessions of a Nazi Spy (1939) Daily Record Staff The topicality of its theme and the fact that its themes concerns us all, give the film a highly dramatic quality.

A Few Good Men (1992) John Millar My verdict is that this courtroom drama is guilty of being a truly great movie. DON'T MISS IT!

Shelby Oaks (2023) Ian Bunting Shelby Oaks gets very wild - a bit too wild - in the latter stages as the mystery is revealed as Stuckmann throws a multitude of horror traits at the screen.
Posted Jan 05, 2026  Edit critic review
Bone Lake (2024) Ian Bunting Bone Lake is small-scale filmmaking that often leaves you gasping for breath but occasionally drowns in its own ambition to branch out into more ferocious fare.

Troll 2 (2025) Ian Bunting The special effects again better many a big-budget Hollywood adventure and the damage done by the giant monster is impressive in its scale.
Posted Dec 23, 2025  Edit critic review
Hook (1991) John Millar I've tried to think happy thoughts about Hook, but Steven Spielberg's reworked fairytale is a huge disappointment.
Posted Dec 19, 2025  Edit critic review
Wicked: For Good (2025) Ian Bunting Elphaba and Glinda’s bond drives the movie and though their attempts to reconnect fully seem doomed, you never stop rooting for it.
Posted Dec 13, 2025  Edit critic review
True Lies (1994) John Millar This all-action romp is Arnie at his best, blasting away more bad guys than you can count and hitting the target with a series of rapid-fire gags.
Posted Dec 09, 2025  Edit critic review
Black Phone 2 (2025) Ian Bunting Despite falling short of its predecessor, it still contains several unnerving moments, and an iconic new horror icon whose lore is expanded without ruining his mystique.
Posted Dec 02, 2025  Edit critic review
Hell House LLC: Lineage (2025) Ian Bunting If Lineage is actually the Hell House LLC finale then I can’t think of a horror series with a more infuriating, uninspiring, going-against-what-came-before climax.
Posted Nov 24, 2025  Edit critic review
Predator: Badlands (2025) Ian Bunting Badlands continues the upward trajectory of the Predator series but, due to its more jovial tone and peeling back much of what makes its protagonist tick, may not win as many fans as Trachtenberg’s previous two outings.
Posted Nov 18, 2025  Edit critic review
V/H/S Halloween (2025) Ian Bunting Despite having a seemingly franchise-friendly theme, V/H/S/Halloween is one of the weaker films in the series.
Posted Nov 07, 2025  Edit critic review
The Naked Gun (2025) Ian Bunting Rebooting a comedy classic was always going to be a thankless task but Schaffer and, particularly, the arresting Neeson hit the target more often than they miss.
Posted Nov 03, 2025  Edit critic review
Predator 2 (1990) John Millar Subtle it's not, but the non-stop action makes you forgive nonsense like the convenient appearance of atmospheric dry ice during the showdown between predator and policeman.
Posted Oct 31, 2025  Edit critic review
Wynonna Earp: Vengeance (2024) Ian Bunting I was a big fan of the series and this brisk 96-minute adventure is a worthy addition and comeback.
Posted Oct 28, 2025  Edit critic review
Night of the Reaper (2025) Ian Bunting Night of the Reaper is a true mixed bag. Strangely, its writing is its biggest flaw and plus, while the directing lends it an uncomfortable atmosphere.
Posted Oct 14, 2025  Edit critic review
My Beautiful Laundrette (1985) Gordon Irving It looks with compassion at life in a racist, present-day Britain, and merits the praise already heaped on it.
Posted Oct 10, 2025  Edit critic review
The Strangers: Chapter 2 (2025) Ian Bunting Chapter 2 isn’t really any better than its immediate predecessor, despite having the element of surprise in its favour, and doesn’t leave you with any faith that Chapter 3 will be a killer climax to this trilogy.
Posted Oct 07, 2025  Edit critic review
The Dark and the Wicked (2020) Ian Bunting The atmosphere Bertino creates in his near-singular location-set movie is dripping with dread; he films most scenes in such naturally dull light that it makes the outside world seem much further than a pull of a curtain away.
Posted Sep 29, 2025  Edit critic review
The Thursday Murder Club (2025) Ian Bunting With Columbus and, bizarrely, Steven Spielberg - on producing duties - Osman’s work has attracted an unbelievable wealth of talent behind and in front of the camera.
Posted Sep 23, 2025  Edit critic review
I Know What You Did Last Summer (2025) Ian Bunting Sadly, the lazy script is a letdown and even when it takes chances, there isn’t enough meat on the storyline bones.
Posted Sep 18, 2025  Edit critic review
Together (2025) Ian Bunting Getting under the skin of what it means to be in love via extreme measures, Together is exciting, exacting and exhausting in equal measures.
Posted Sep 10, 2025  Edit critic review
Toy Story (1995) John Millar The animation is stunning, and the movie has a very witty script which doesn't patronize kids and manages to be entertaining for parents.
Posted Sep 09, 2025  Edit critic review
The Stranger in My Home (2025) Ian Bunting Campy, cheap and sorely lacking in consistency, The Stranger in My Home is best left on the doorstep rather than being invited into your viewing life.
Posted Sep 02, 2025  Edit critic review
Darkman (1990) John Millar Sam Raimi is so good with the black humor of his subject that the end result is fun.
Posted Aug 26, 2025  Edit critic review
The Old Guard 2 (2025) Ian Bunting It tries to pack in too much and the main characters don’t get to develop very much.
Posted Aug 25, 2025  Edit critic review
Bring Her Back (2025) Ian Bunting Hawkins is a true revelation.
Posted Aug 20, 2025  Edit critic review
Dangerous Animals (2025) Ian Bunting Dangerous Animals is one of the better post- Jaws shark movies; it just needed a few more sharks to go alongside Courtney’s crazed killer and Harrison’s hardy heroine.
Posted Aug 12, 2025  Edit critic review
The Fantastic Four: First Steps (2025) Ian Bunting The world long-time television director Matt Shakman and his visual effects team have created feels vibrant. lived-in and unlike anything seen before in the MCU.
Posted Aug 05, 2025  Edit critic review
Waterworld (1995) John Millar The most expensive movie ever made really is a damp squib.
Posted Jul 28, 2025  Edit critic review
The Ritual (2025) Ian Bunting I really tried to give The Ritual the benefit of the doubt but as a horror fan who has been down this road so many times, I actually felt frustrated and fed up sitting through it.
Posted Jul 25, 2025  Edit critic review
The Naked Gun 2 1/2: The Smell of Fear (1991) John Millar If you laughed till you ached at the first movie, then it's a fair bet that you'll find The Naked Gun 2½ a blast.
Posted Jul 22, 2025  Edit critic review
Superman (2025) Ian Bunting Superman as a whole soars high on the comic-book movie scale as well as setting the stage for an exciting future for DC fans young and old.

3/4
Red Rock West (1993) Daily Record Staff Enjoyable thanks to the acting -- especially by J.T. Walsh.
Posted Jul 15, 2025  Edit critic review
Jurassic World Rebirth (2025) Ian Bunting New dinosaurs and environments as well as humans with varying motivations ensure things are kept reasonably fresh.
Posted Jul 11, 2025  Edit critic review
28 Years Later (2025) Ian Bunting 28 Years Later is a wonderfully directed, mesmerizing return to a rage-filled world not shy of hope, personal growth and madness in all its forms.
Posted Jul 09, 2025  Edit critic review
Superman: The Movie (1978) John Millar Superman is super. That's my verdict on the film which, I predict will become one of the biggest box-office hits in history.
Posted Jul 08, 2025  Edit critic review
Superman IV: The Quest for Peace (1987) John Millar Apart from having the clumsiest title of any of the Man of Steel's movies, this adventure also has the flimsiest plot.
Posted Jul 02, 2025  Edit critic review
Jurassic Park (1993) John Millar Only the very cynical could fail to be entertained, excited, thrilled and perhaps even a little scared by Jurassic Park.
Posted Jul 01, 2025  Edit critic review
The Lost World: Jurassic Park (1997) John Millar Even though The Lost World is certain of box office success, it's a curious disappointment. It's rather empty.
Posted Jun 30, 2025  Edit critic review
Predator: Killer of Killers (2025) Ian Bunting Another triumph for Trachtenberg, Killer of Killers keeps the Predator series going in the right direction.
Posted Jun 29, 2025  Edit critic review
The Quick and the Dead (1995) John Millar Some of the gags misfire as Sharon goes gunning for revenge. But you'll find many worse excuses for munching your way through a bucket of popcorn.
Posted Jun 24, 2025  Edit critic review
Carrington (1995) John Millar You might have to search it out at more specialised cinemas. But it'll be worth the effort to see one of the year's classiest releases.
Posted Jun 24, 2025  Edit critic review
Apollo 13 (1995) John Millar Yet again, Hanks has struck the feel-good chord in a movie which hurtles its audience through action that's so well-paced you won't believe it's almost two-and-a-half hours long.
Posted Jun 24, 2025  Edit critic review
Until Dawn (2025) Ian Bunting Whether it’s a faithful adaptation of its video game source material or not, Until Dawn is by-the-numbers horror you should think twice about spending the night with.
Posted Jun 23, 2025  Edit critic review
Renner (2025) Ian Bunting Renner is a strange film that takes the topical AI technology and doesn’t do much with it until the latter stages.
