'No Other Choice' Review: Park Chan-wook Turns Corporate Desperation into Killer Satire
No Other Choice is a bitingly funny, poignant, sharp, shocking blend of desperation, satire, irony alongside a killer (pun intended) crime thriller hook. It is one of the best looking films I have seen in recent memory, the performances are excellent and the creativity sparks from the screenplay.

'Shelter' Review: A Generic Retreat After Statham’s R-Rated Resurgence
Shelter unfortunately leans more into some of Liam Neeson’s more generic recent action outings rather than Statham’s better works. It’s disposable, lacking stylistic flair and a unique hook and is only really carried by solid performances from the two leads and a couple of entertaining action beats.

Inside 'The Wrecking Crew': From Viral Tweet to Full-Throttle Action
From a viral tweet to a full-blown action spectacle, The Wrecking Crew has come together in one of the most organic ways imaginable. During the film’s global press conference, director Ángel Manuel Soto and stars Jason Momoa and Dave Bautista broke down how their bruising buddy movie grew from a simple idea into an action film driven as much by emotion as spectacle.

'Saipan' Review: A Football-drama Framed as a Tense, 90-minute Thriller
Saipan may not fully justify its existence as a feature, but thanks to an incredible central performance from Éanna Hardwicke, solid support from Steve Coogan and a sharp, thriller-like presentation, it stands as a smart, contained drama that is far better than you would expect.

'Primate' Review: Short, Savage, and Unapologetically Bloodthirsty Monkey Mayhem
Primate does exactly what it says on the tin. It’s a quickfire, bloodthirsty, darkly chuckle worthy and well scored creature feature that relishes in its grindhouse/exploitation vibes. The characters are ultimately there as prey and the story is barely existent, but it delivers what is to be expected.

'Mercy' Review: A High-Concept Sci-Fi Thriller Undone by Thin Ideas and Familiar Tricks
Mercy is a swiftly generic and forgettable thriller that boasts plenty of potential ideas and things it could be saying, yet opts to go for the trashy playbook.

'Return to Silent Hill' Review: A Hellish Nightmare Sequel Lacking Any Soul
Return to Silent Hill is an enigmatic experience. It is perhaps the most visually accurate video game adaptation ever put to film, yet it feels fundamentally disconnected from the "why" of the story.

Die My Love is an exhausting, uncomfortable and at times darkly comedic and trippy experience led by Lawrence’s powerhouse performance. The film looks great and flows through its spiralling mental breakdown of a structure.
