The long-awaited return of Guillermo del Toro brings a star-studded cast coming and playing in his none-more-black noir remake. But what exactly can del Toro bring to the classic genre?  

Generically titled and dripping in the trappings of a DTV effort, is the surprisingly competent See for Me worth seeing?  

Christian Carion's high concept remake of his own high concept French flick sees a script-less James McAvoy out of his depth in this mystery thriller.  

Given a limited release at the start of the year before opening wider this weekend, Paul Thomas Anderson's latest film is a beautiful, hazy trip into early 70's LA.  

Viewed as some cheap-as-chips am-dram Tarantino tribute, Sundance darling First Date is an 'interesting' debut from writer/directors Manuel Crosby and Daniel Knapp that somehow just about lands on the right side of respectful.  

The return of a much-loved horror franchise will disappoint as many as it entertains thanks to its treatment of the classic OG characters. Extreme nostalgia caution is needed...  

Joel Coen's masterful adaptation of the Scottish play may be full of sound and fury, but this is no tale told by an idiot.  

Ditching Adam Sandler and going straight to streaming, Transformania could have been a whole lot worse, but still shows signs of a franchise way running on fumes.  

George Clooney's eighth directorial effort lands on Amazon and starts well with Ben Affleck on fine form, but can it stick the landing?  

Straight from Hulu in the US to Netflix in the UK, Chloe Grace Moretz styles out this very tame clash of 28 Days Later and A Quiet Place which features very little of either androids or motherhood.  

Maggie Gyllenhaal's strikingly assured directorial debut will likely garner a lot of attention, not least for a trifecta of excellent performances from Olivia Colman, Jessie Buckley and Dakota Johnson.  

Two time best Bond director Martin Campbell, who gave us Casino Royale and Goldeneye, gifts the latest Nikita, Maggie Q, her first real shot at a decent solo lead action movie and it's... fine.  

We head back to WWI for a prequel to Matthew Vaughn’s fun but flawed spy franchise which, if it had maintained its opening blistering insanity, could have been something really quite special indeed…  

Adam McKay's Chicken Little for adults is just shy of being funny, just shy of being insightful and just shy of being a good movie. What it isn't shy of is impotently railing at the stupidity of government and media.  

22 years later and we return to a very meta Matrix, but is it still too clever for its own good and, my God, does it really look as cheap as it does in the trailers?  

Apple TV+ delivers up another powerful feature, with Mahershala Ali putting in some of his finest work, leaving Swan Song a heartbreaking sci-fi drama.  

Riz Ahmed delivers another heartwrenching performance in this unusual psychological sci-fi mystery.  

Dolph Lundgren returns to directing for the first time in over a decade, teaming up with Scott Adkins for some low budget thrills in a block scheduled for demolition.
