Hokum (2026) 88% 4/5 EDIT “McCarthy guides the audience through disturbing human tragedy and alarming decisions in a suspenseful, mysterious and stirring supernatural horror.” – SciFiNow Apr 28, 2026 Full Review Mother Mary (2026) 72% 3/5 EDIT “Lowery has crafted an intense and chilling examination of the power, permanence and everlasting pull of emotional bonds. Yet it doesn’t all gel satisfactorily with the arena sequences.” – SciFiNow Apr 28, 2026 Full Review Ultras (2025) 4/5 EDIT “Running at just under 90 minutes, the film Ekner has crafted not only examines the politics and socioeconomics of each country she visits, but also channels the atmosphere of each locale via potent vistas and exhilarating revelry.” – Little White Lies Apr 28, 2026 Full Review How to Make a Killing (2026) 44% 3/5 EDIT “It’s a gross tour through the pursuits of the rich and famous, the problem is, it’s not that funny or compelling. Powell makes it watchable, even when you know where the film is heading. ” – SciFiNow Mar 20, 2026 Full Review Broken English (2025) 92% 3/5 EDIT “Instead of using talking heads for conjecture and opinion, it is Faithfull herself who is filmed admiring and lamenting her life. That is what sets this documentary apart as it delicately crafts intimate moments.” – Little White Lies Mar 17, 2026 Full Review Project Hail Mary (2026) 94% 5/5 EDIT “It’s essentially an odd-couple comedy wrapped up in a big warm hug of a science-fiction family film that asks big questions and never speaks down to its audience.” – SciFiNow Mar 10, 2026 Full Review THE BRIDE! (2026) 57% 4/5 EDIT “Gyllenhaal delivers a ravishingly designed, feminist punk rock opera that gives off similar vibes to Phantom of the Paradise and True Romance. ” – SciFiNow Mar 4, 2026 Full Review Wuthering Heights (2026) 57% 4/5 EDIT “Fennell reflects the eventual demise of these doomed lovers with painterly melancholy. This is a disquieting and highly stylised ghost(ing) story for a new generation. ” – The List Feb 13, 2026 Full Review Is This Thing On? (2025) 87% 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) 93% 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) 61% 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) 87% 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) 90% 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) 73% 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) 97% 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) 88% 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
