'Fuze' Review: A Serviceable Heist Thriller That Loses Momentum by the Finale
Fuze is a disposable, but watchable heist-thriller that starts strong and fizzles out by the end. A fine and acceptable British thriller, just not one that stands out or leaves a lasting impression.

'Their Town' Review: Filled With Heart, Humour and Notable Filmmaking
What it lacks in thrills and typical entertainment value, it makes up for with heart, humour and notable filmmaking. Their Town is an indie triumph that deserves a wider audience than it’ll likely receive.

'Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice' Review: A High-Concept Genre Mash-up That Delivers an Absolute Blast
Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice is a high-concept action-comedy-sci-fi-romance that juggles all its genres for a blast of a surprisingly coherent and fresh take on the “One Crazy Night” sub-genre.

'They Will Kill You' Review: A Batshit and Bonkers Addition to the Women Covered in Blood Sub-Genre
With entertaining action sequences, bonkers horror segments, committed performances and just 94 minutes of pure madness, They Will Kill You is an excellent addition into the ‘women covered in blood’ sub-genre.

'Ready or Not 2: Here I Come' Review: Same Game, Bigger Bloodshed, But Playing It Safe
Ready or Not 2: Here I Come is a solid sequel that delivers pretty much exactly what you expect. Well paced, gnarly, Weaving and Newton rock and the location is a fitting battleground. It does play it a little too safe and can feel a bit undercooked, but this is a solidly fun sequel.

'Project Hail Mary' Review: Gosling Leads With Charm, But the Heart Comes From an Unlikely Companion
Project Hail Mary is more than just a survival science-fiction adventure. It explores how curiosity, compassion and collaboration can bridge even the most unimaginable distances.

'How to Make a Killing' Review: Glen Powell Leads a Slick, Stylish ‘Eat the Rich’ Caper
How to Make a Killing is a solid ‘eat the rich’ caper with a stylish, slick aesthetic, a consistent pace and fun performances. There are twists, turns and tension to keep you hooked, a few laugh-out-loud lines and easy going vibe to the whole thing

'Jitters' Review: A Promising Horror Concept Lost in a Glitchy, Cliché-Filled Execution
Jitters shows promising ideas and features an over-the-top villain, however it is painfully generic in the writing of its characters and lacks any genuine scares, thrills or particular gross out horrific moments.

'Reminders of Him' Review: A Heartfelt Triumph of Never Losing Hope and Overcoming Grief
Reminders of Him serves as a touching tale on the human capacity for change. While we are all shaped by our darkest mistakes, we are not permanently defined by them.

'Louis Theroux: Inside the Manosphere' Review : Theroux Enters the “Manosphere” With Expectedly Terrifying and Funny Results
A scathing hit-piece on a disgusting online culture fuelled by outrage, vapidness and a desperate grab for wealth and fame over any morals as Theroux allows these people to freely talk and dig themselves into deeper contradictory holes.

'Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man' Review: A Fitting, but Familiar Televisual Send-off For Thomas Shelby
Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man is a stylish, silly and camp send-off for Thomas Shelby that still has Murphy putting in great work with a fun supporting cast. But while it's a conclusive ending, it rarely feels more than an extended episode of the show than it does a real film.

'Outgunned' Review: Locked, Loaded and Over the Top
In the end, Outgunned is not a film that attempts to reinvent the action genre. It functions as a straightforward, violent, and unrelenting survival thriller that delivers exactly what the trailer promises.

'Worldbreaker' Review: The Missed Potential of a Storytellers Apocalypse
Wordbreaker is a film of "almosts." It is almost a profound meditation on parenting at the end of time; it is almost a gripping creature feature. By attempting to be a "less is more" character study within a "more is more" sci-fi setting, it ends up feeling incomplete.

'The Bride!' Review: Maggie Gyllenhaal’s Wild Punk Monster Experiment
The Bride! is an electrically charged punk rock infused big messy swing of a flick that certainly won’t be for everyone. Buckley and Bale are giving their all, the film looks fantastic and has a myriad of bonkers moments.

'War Machine' Review: An Industrial Evolution of the Predator Formula That Truly Delivers
War Machine is a triumph of grit and futuristic horror. While the plot follows a familiar survival trajectory, it is elevated by its commitment to character building and its grounded military material.

'Hoppers' Review: A Solid Pixar Outing That Makes For One of Their Best in Years
a confident, colourful original with big ideas, inventive imagery and enough warmth to stick the landing. After a few years of “fine,” this felt like a genuine step back in the right direction.
