Project Hail Mary (2026) Henry K. Miller Phil Lord and Chris Miller’s treacly alien buddy comedy about an astronaut stranded in outer space gives even the most curmudgeonly among us things to laugh at.

Broken English (2025) Simran Hans Directors Iain Forsyth and Jane Pollard construct a fictional ’Ministry of Not Forgetting’ led by Tilda Swinton to investigate the cultural legacy of Marianne Faithfull in a didactic documentary that works best in its more stripped back moments.

Dead Man's Wire (2025) Ben Walters Gus Van Sant’s 1970s-set dramatisation of a true story taps into timely questions about class warfare, the media and the American dream.

The Howling (1981) Sight & Sound Staff An engaging mixture of no-nonsense lycanthropy and movie brat knowingness.

RoboCop 3 (1993) Mark Kermode There is still more enjoyable material here than RoboCop 2, with all its OTT carnage, could even hint at.

Scarlet (2025) Blake Simons Toggling between 2D and 3D animation, Hosoda Mamoru’s gender-swapped take on Hamlet takes admirably big swings but only skims the surface of its deeper thematic concerns.

How to Make a Killing (2026) Sophia Satchell Baeza Despite an excellent turn from Margaret Qualley and one or two semi-satisfying murders, How to Make a Killing rarely manages to raise a pulse.

The Love That Remains (2025) Adam Nayman Its frightening, hilarious final image suggests a state of anxious suspension commensurate with Pálmason’s own marvellous directorial balancing act.
Posted Mar 13, 2026  Edit critic review
Resurrection (2025) Arjun Sajip Bi Gan’s vivid storytelling moves through the astral planes in Resurrection, reincarnating a rebel dreamer (Jackson Yee) across 100 years of Chinese history, experienced as six chapters each in a different cinematic style.

Flies (2026) Nicolas Rapold Eimbcke delivers a humbly poignant film that affirms his lineage with the great children’s auteurs like Lamorisse and Truffaut.

RoboCop 2 (1990) Sight & Sound Staff Lacklustre return, stripped of Paul Verhoeven's panache and sparkle.

Sound of Falling (2025) Catherine Wheatley Mascha Schilinski’s fragmentary look into the lives of four generations of German women – each affected by violence and abuse in different ways – is as unsettling as it is breathtaking.
Posted Mar 06, 2026  Edit critic review
Anastasia (1956) John Cutts The original play has been somewhat reshaped to suit the range and personalities of its leading players, and the result is a very polished and urbane piece of entertainment.
Posted Mar 06, 2026  Edit critic review
Breakfast at Tiffany's (1961) Peter John Dyer Breakfast at Tiffany's is a charming, rather cock-eyed, whimsical, fantastical, sentimental fairy story, with a whopping part for Audrey Hepburn.
Posted Mar 05, 2026  Edit critic review
RoboCop (1987) Sean French RoboCop is a shrewdly enjoyable movie – enjoyable because of its shrewdness, a film of comic-book violence that is also a parody of comic-book violence.
Posted Mar 04, 2026  Edit critic review
Queen at Sea (2026) Rachel Pronger Lance Hammer’s film starring Juliette Binoche as the concerned daughter of a mother with advancing dementia presents an unsentimental yet highly empathetic meditation on the limits of love in the face of the brutal march of time.
Posted Mar 02, 2026  Edit critic review
Josephine (2026) Rachel Pronger Beth de Araújo’s film about an eight-year-old girl who witnesses a horrific crime is clearly about a loss of innocence but also skilfully shows how that loss can shatter a family.

The Testament of Ann Lee (2025) Katie McCabe Unconvincing Manchester accent aside, Amanda Seyfried delivers a brilliant, primal performance as Ann Lee, the radical leader of a celibate religious sect that absolved sins through intense physical worship.
Posted Feb 26, 2026  Edit critic review
Sense and Sensibility (1995) Claire Monk In practice, Lee's Sense and Sensibility is easily the most enjoyable and, more significantly, the least complacent of the recent rash of Jane Austen adaptations.
Posted Feb 25, 2026  Edit critic review
Collective Monologue (2024) Hope Rangaswami Here, paws play an equal role. Animals are not treated as spectacle – they gaze at the camera as subjects, not objects. S

Rose (2026) John Bleasdale Rose is a tragedy about history’s losers, its victims and those who don’t get to write their own story.
Posted Feb 24, 2026  Edit critic review
Yellow Letters (2026) Travis Jeppesen İlker Çatak’s political drama about an avant garde theatre couple whose family life begins to unravel when their work is targeted by the government has much to say about artistic censorship.
Posted Feb 23, 2026  Edit critic review
The Postman (1994) Julian Graffy Its fundamental falsity and miscalculations are ever more evident, miscalculations encapsulated in a banal and intrusive musical score by Luis Enrique Bacalov.
Posted Feb 22, 2026  Edit critic review
Wuthering Heights (2026) Catherine Wheatley Fennell takes liberties with her source material in a colour-saturated, baroque spectacle charged by yearning and foreplay that all falls apart in the second half.
Posted Feb 18, 2026  Edit critic review
Whistle (2025) Adam Nayman This generic supernatural slasher is perhaps too reflexive for its own good, but Dafne Keen and Sophie Nélisse's tentative queer romance adds some freshness.
Posted Feb 18, 2026  Edit critic review
The Day the Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Movie (2024) Will Sloan Director Peter Browngardt’s feature-length Looney Tunes movie captures the early inventiveness of these cartoon creations, sidelining Bugs to show off the great comedic talents of Daffy Duck and Porky Pig.
Posted Feb 12, 2026  Edit critic review
Crime 101 (2026) Mark Asch Aiming for timeless elegance, the movie ends up as drab as a traffic jam.
Posted Feb 12, 2026  Edit critic review
Another World (2025) Josh Slater-Williams The path to reincarnation comes with brutally violent detours in Tommy Kai Chung Ng’s beautiful Studio Ghibli-indebted feature.

Miracle in Milan (1951) Sight & Sound Staff This beautiful and moving film may seem to some the most impressive thing de Sica has yet done; at any rate it is a further stage in the development of one of the cinema’s most outstanding artists.
Posted Feb 06, 2026  Edit critic review
The Shepherd and the Bear (2024) Megan Feeney Max Keegan explores both sides of the debate over reintroducing wild bears to the French mountains, offering a compassionate understanding of a local shepherd’s fear for his livelihood.

My Father's Shadow (2025) Abiba Coulibaly Akinola Davies Jr.’s debut feature about two brothers who join their father on a dizzying trip through Lagos is a beautiful blend of moral guidance, nostalgia and discovery.
Posted Feb 05, 2026  Edit critic review
100 Nights of Hero (2025) Kathryn Bromwich Though at times too reliant on voice over, Julia Jackman’s fantastical take on Isabel Greenberg’s graphic novel crackles with suppressed yearning.
Posted Feb 05, 2026  Edit critic review
Vanishing Point (1971) Sight & Sound Staff Irretrievably marred by explanatory flashbacks.
Posted Feb 05, 2026  Edit critic review
The Invite (2026) Nicolas Rapold Sometimes it’s diverting enough to see four stars at work for an evening, which is exactly what The Invite did on a Saturday night at Sundance’s Eccles Theatre and perhaps other rooms in future.
Posted Feb 04, 2026  Edit critic review
Ace in the Hole (1951) Penelope Houston In Ace in the Hole style and purpose achieve for the most part a fusion more impressive even than in Sunset Boulevard, and the result is perhaps [Billy Wilder's] most remarkable film.
Posted Feb 03, 2026  Edit critic review
The History of Concrete (2026) Nicolas Rapold Wilson’s debut feature The History of Concrete shows the expert essayist as sneakily profound as ever, contemplating life and art and piecing together meaning from the fragments.
Posted Jan 30, 2026  Edit critic review
The Moment (2026) Nicolas Rapold By the time the plot contrives a disastrous Brat-themed bank card promotion, its pretensions to either clever comedy or artistic reflection are lost in the lights.
Posted Jan 29, 2026  Edit critic review
Is This Thing On? (2025) Mark Asch If the film works at all, it’s because Arnett is indeed genuinely relatable, with his husky morning-after voice and a feral bitterness behind his eyes redolent of the accumulated fatigue of male midlife – he’s an adult, in a movie made for them.
Posted Jan 29, 2026  Edit critic review
Nouvelle Vague (2025) Henry K. Miller I can’t guarantee that everything in the film happened exactly as depicted, but while this is not an irrelevant consideration, the film excels in showing the contingent nature of filmmaking and of this film in particular.
Posted Jan 27, 2026  Edit critic review
State of Statelessness (2024) Chris Shields Using four stories from around the world, these Tibetan filmmakers weave carefully chosen details throughout narratives of absence and death to create a work that is philosophically and, at times, spiritually profound.
Posted Jan 27, 2026  Edit critic review
North (1994) Lizzie Francke The problem is that North never achieves the scathing satire to which it aspires.
Posted Jan 26, 2026  Edit critic review
The American President (1995) John Wrathall Screen couples who are unapologetically middle-aged, intelligent and highly articulate are a rarity in Hollywood these days, and Annette Bening and Michael Douglas respond to the challenge admirably.

Saipan (2025) Philip Concannon At the end of the day, this is the rare sports film that has no winners.
Posted Jan 20, 2026  Edit critic review
The Magnificent Seven (1960) Penelope Houston ...this tough-sentimental eulogy to the gunfighter establishes itself as a likable enough Western on its own traditional terms.
Posted Jan 14, 2026  Edit critic review
BLKNWS: Terms & Conditions (2025) Abiba Coulibaly For 113 minutes Joseph's BLKNWS transforms that space, crafting a portal to epistemological provocation and creative chaos of the best kind.
Posted Jan 13, 2026  Edit critic review
A Few Good Men (1992) Kim Newman ...A Few Good Men seems a transparent rewrite of The Caine Mutiny Court Martial, with Jack Nicholson as a Captain Queeg whose crime is the brand of unofficial initiative-taking usually seen as a positive trait in films about the military.
Posted Jan 08, 2026  Edit critic review
Hamnet (2025) Nicolas Rapold Part of what Zhao achieves is the sense that it has all arisen organically, and that Agnes and her fellow groundlings are indeed recognising themselves in the drama for the first time.
Posted Jan 08, 2026  Edit critic review
Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire (2024) Kim Newman This spectacle fully embraces the toddler-tantrum-on-a-colossal-scale aesthetic and is winning because of rather than despite its essential goofiness.
Posted Dec 31, 2025  Edit critic review
Io Capitano (2023) Jason Anderson The film is also rescued from its more precious and sentimental excesses by the power and complexity of Sarr’s central performance.
Posted Dec 31, 2025  Edit critic review
Yannick (2023) John Bleasdale Quentin Dupieux’s latest film is a touch more conventional than his usual absurdist offerings, but maintains a sharp, funny meta-commentary on the divisions between audience and artist.
