Saipan (2025) 90% 3/5 EDIT “The film is decent enough but lacks a compelling raison d’être.” – Sunday Times (UK) Jan 27, 2026 Full Review H Is for Hawk (2025) 78% 4/5 EDIT “Foy pulls through in every sense. She gives a remarkable performance — unshowy, precise and powerful.” – Sunday Times (UK) Jan 27, 2026 Full Review The Rip (2026) 79% 3/5 EDIT “The Rip is at its best as the noose of paranoia tightens around the house, suspicions fly, and Damon and Affleck take turns to accuse each other.” – Sunday Times (UK) Jan 22, 2026 Full Review 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple (2026) 92% 2/5 EDIT “Fiennes is pretty much the sole reason you may want to see this thinly clever, unpleasant film. ” – Sunday Times (UK) Jan 22, 2026 Full Review Song Sung Blue (2025) 78% 2/5 EDIT “In 20 years’ time Song Sung Blue will probably be a camp classic playing as part of a double-bill with The Rocky Horror Picture Show, or Showgirls. But to qualify for “so bad it’s good”, first you have to be bad … very bad.” – Sunday Times (UK) Jan 10, 2026 Full Review Sentimental Value (2025) 97% 5/5 EDIT “Trier has plenty of both up his sleeve, combining the satisfactions of arthouse film-making with the emotional wallop of great melodrama.” – Sunday Times (UK) Jan 10, 2026 Full Review Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery (2025) 92% 3/5 EDIT “It’s all so clever that half an hour after the film is over you won’t remember a stitch of it. What stays with you is O’Connor taking time out from a bit of sleuthing to take confession from a member of his parish.” – Sunday Times (UK) Dec 18, 2025 Full Review Goodbye June (2025) 65% 4/5 EDIT “The screenplay has an extraordinary ability to unlock emotion with the most mundane of events.” – Sunday Times (UK) Dec 18, 2025 Full Review It Was Just an Accident (2025) 97% 3/5 EDIT “What unfolds is a black comedy of sorts.” – Sunday Times (UK) Dec 8, 2025 Full Review Jay Kelly (2025) 75% 4/5 EDIT “Jay Kelly ploughs a more mellow groove than we’ve come to expect from this caustic writer-director.” – Sunday Times (UK) Dec 8, 2025 Full Review Blue Moon (2025) 90% 3/5 EDIT “If Blue Moon feels destined to be seen by a fraction of the already small percentage of the population who enjoyed those films, Hawke’s scenes with Scott and Qualley nevertheless stand out.” – Sunday Times (UK) Dec 3, 2025 Full Review Christy (2025) 67% 3/5 EDIT “Sweeney is extraordinary — her tenacity, like Martin’s, is starting to pay off.” – Sunday Times (UK) Dec 3, 2025 Full Review Train Dreams (2025) 95% 3/5 EDIT “It casts an undeniable spell.” – Sunday Times (UK) Nov 25, 2025 Full Review Wicked: For Good (2025) 66% 4/5 EDIT “Erivo’s vulnerability is the real show-stopper. ” – Sunday Times (UK) Nov 25, 2025 Full Review Nuremberg (2025) 72% 2/5 EDIT “ For all its window dressing as a clinical assessment, the psychological insights offered up — Kelley finds Goering “sympathetic”, “imaginative” and a “narcissist” — are not worth the napkin on which they were jotted.” – Sunday Times (UK) Nov 25, 2025 Full Review The Choral (2025) 67% 2/5 EDIT “Alan Bennett’s script spends too much time pursuing the romantic subplots of his teenage choristers.” – Sunday Times (UK) Nov 14, 2025 Full Review Die My Love (2025) 74% 3/5 EDIT “Pattinson is good in this film, but Lawrence is better: sometimes he seems frankly slack-jawed at just how uninhibited his scene partner is managing to be. ” – Sunday Times (UK) Nov 14, 2025 Full Review After the Hunt (2025) 37% 2/5 EDIT “The plot feels almost deliberately muddled.” – Sunday Times (UK) Oct 29, 2025 Full Review Frankenstein (2025) 85% 4/5 EDIT “Once Jacob Elordi takes the stage as the monster — sorry, the creature — everything falls into place.” – Sunday Times (UK) Oct 29, 2025 Full Review A HOUSE OF DYNAMITE (2025) 75% 4/5 EDIT “Chilling, measured, at times almost unbearably tense.” – Sunday Times (UK) Oct 14, 2025 Full Review The Smashing Machine (2025) 70% 3/5 EDIT “The true naked aggression of Raging Bull seems beyond the reach of Johnson, or of this rather sweet-natured film. Instead it’s Gently Engaging Bull.” – Sunday Times (UK) Oct 3, 2025 Full Review One Battle After Another (2025) 94% 5/5 EDIT “Hefty yet cantering, deliriously funny in places, as audacious as a moonshot — One Battle After Another is probably Anderson’s best film.” – Sunday Times (UK) Sep 30, 2025 Full Review A Big Bold Beautiful Journey (2025) 36% 2/5 EDIT “There’s so much to make your toes curl that the film could well become a cringe classic. Everything about it is so gloriously and deliberately fake.” – Sunday Times (UK) Sep 23, 2025 Full Review Steve (2025) 78% 3/5 EDIT “The chaos of the day is a little too infectious, but Murphy gives a beautifully raw, frazzled performance, his opaque blues eyes never far from panic.” – Sunday Times (UK) Sep 23, 2025 Full Review Spinal Tap II: The End Continues (2025) 65% 3/5 EDIT “It’s such a pleasure to be back in the company of Tufnel, Smalls and St Hubbins — older, whiter of whisker but as gormless as ever — that it may be a while before the thinness of the material dawns on you.” – Sunday Times (UK) Sep 17, 2025 Full Review
