The Adding Machine (1969) 3/5 EDIT “… The Adding Machine doesn’t quite add up as a film, but it has museum piece value…there’s something haunting about Zero’s denial of what might be best for himself that haunts the mind…” – film-authority.com Feb 17, 2026 Full Review Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace (1999) 54% 1/5 EDIT “…a truly awful movie by any criteria….the lack of continuity with the previous films is just stunning to behold…absolutely nothing works in The Phantom Menace, a complete debacle in the history of the Star Wars franchise...” – film-authority.com Feb 15, 2026 Full Review Alien Autopsy (2006) 78% 3/5 EDIT “…I came expecting to scoff at this project, and left quietly impressed; Alien Autopsy is a valiant effort to bottle the Ant & Dec charm…a surprisingly good production, with none of the sexism or racism traditional in lowbrow Brit flicks…” – film-authority.com Feb 15, 2026 Full Review Whistle (2025) 60% 3/5 EDIT “…turns out Aztec death whistles work in predictable ways, and once you’ve got the hang of the concept, there’s no real surprises, just jump scares. But the shocks are reasonably well delivered, and Whistle at least avoids any ideas above its station…” – film-authority.com Feb 14, 2026 Full Review The Rules of Attraction (2002) 45% 5/5 EDIT “…an anything-goes adaptation of a fairly unfilmable novel, Roger Avary's The Rules of Attraction is without a doubt the best thing that James Van Der Beek ever did, a courageous and shocking piece of acting that is a great way to remember him….’” – film-authority.com Feb 13, 2026 Full Review The Elephant in the Room (2025) 4/5 EDIT “…this politically prescient romcom is about how two young people might overcome their differences…very much about peace, love and understanding, Erik Bork's film grasps the nettle of division and makes comic gold out of serious matters…” – film-authority.com Feb 13, 2026 Full Review Get Carter (2000) 11% 2/5 EDIT “…the first Get Carter took a minimalist storyline and hung all kinds of memorable details on it; this version is bland and anonymous…the first film had has a mordant black wit that’s horribly garbled here…” – film-authority.com Feb 12, 2026 Full Review Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die (2025) 83% 4/5 EDIT “…many movies have tried to catch this end-of-days comedy vibe, Douglas Adams updated with splattery but always cool action sequences. But GLHFDD scores particularly well because its reflections on today’s technological sickness feel bang on…” – film-authority.com Feb 12, 2026 Full Review The Quiller Memorandum (1966) 60% 4/5 EDIT “…The Quiller Memorandum doesn’t actually have much plot, but makes the best of keeping it real; this really is one of the best 60’s spy movies, elevated by Pinter’s brilliant ear for threats and Anderson’s stunning use of sunny German locations…” – film-authority.com Feb 11, 2026 Full Review The Straight Story (1999) 95% 4/5 EDIT “…The Straight Story is a very untypical David Lynch movie in that it’s a straight, rather than a twisted tale, but it’s unmistakably Lynchian from soup to nuts…marries a wholesome, folksy charm with a stark insight into mortality…” – film-authority.com Feb 10, 2026 Full Review Wuthering Heights (2026) 59% 2/5 EDIT “Emerald Fennell’s’ lurid and wildly over-sexed version slathers on all kinds of directorial nonsense rather than nail even half the story…for all its mad bluster, this Wuthering Heights plays up the moist, gelid, stinky sex at the expense of romance….” – film-authority.com Feb 9, 2026 Full Review Hamlet (2025) 82% 3/5 EDIT “…this modernised 21st century Hamlet has a good lead and provocative intentions, broadening out the play for a modern audience, but the mix of old words and new stagings falls short of delivering the play’s key messages….” – film-authority.com Feb 9, 2026 Full Review Days of Thunder (1990) 38% 3/5 EDIT “…Quentin Tarantino suggests that Days of Thunder is better than Grand Prix and Le Mans, but he’s wrong on both counts; Tony Scott's NASCAR movie is far too slammed together to be a movie for the ages, but now as in 1990, just about passes the time…” – film-authority.com Feb 8, 2026 Full Review Doctor Plague (2025) 2/5 EDIT “…despite having such a memorable figure at the centre of the narrative, low-budget shocker Doctor Plague isn’t something that’s easy to recommend…the locations, costumes and much of the acting are basic to say the least…” – film-authority.com Feb 7, 2026 Full Review Dead Bang (1989) 38% 4/5 EDIT “…rises to several big action set-pieces; the production designer is the magician behind the James Bond look Ken Adams. Dead Bang hasn’t got much of a reputation, but it’s right on the money, showing the true colours of what was ailing within America…” – film-authority.com Feb 7, 2026 Full Review The Track (2025) 4/5 EDIT “…an inspiring new film that’s a classic underdog/recovery story…a recovery story for the ages, a tale of ‘impossible possibilities’ that shows that, with the right application, the most incredible things can happen in the most unlikely environments…” – film-authority.com Feb 6, 2026 Full Review Anniversary (2025) 66% 5/5 EDIT “…an edgy, dark and persuasive slice of political science -fiction...Anniversary has more brains and social concern than almost anything in the marketplace right now... a firm recommendation for anyone seeking confirmation that our world is slipping away…” – film-authority.com Feb 5, 2026 Full Review The Muppet Show (2026) 98% 4/5 EDIT “…If the 2026 Sabrina Carpenter Muppet Show teaches us anything, it’s that if it ain’t broken, don’t try and fix it….this return to the original variety show format works fine and Carpenter scores a healthy 8/10 for her muppet interactions…” – film-authority.com Feb 3, 2026 Full Review The Day the Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Movie (2024) 86% 4/5 EDIT “…a throwback to a beloved set of characters…Daffy Duck and Porky Pig team up to save the world, and if that concept appeals, you’ll dig this cheerful, route-one animation…the takeaway is; it’s good to have Daffy, Porky and the Looney Tunes back in action…” – film-authority.com Feb 3, 2026 Full Review Just Mercy (2019) 85% 4/5 EDIT “…a compelling drama about wrongful accusation, race and capital punishment…Just Mercy is a good, engrossing courtroom thriller well played by Michael B Jordan and Brie Larson…” – film-authority.com Feb 3, 2026 Full Review The Game (1997) 77% 4/5 EDIT “…this is a far better movie than say The Killer, and better than director David Fincher thinks. If they’d kept the ending, and upped the social commentary within a bit more pointed critique of Van Orton’s lifestyle, this could have been a classic…” – film-authority.com Feb 1, 2026 Full Review Primate (2025) 78% 2/5 EDIT “…a thriller based around the agonies of an animal makes this a hard watch for animal lovers, even when the animal looks fake AF, so Primate skews towards sadistic teens rather than anyone seeking an enjoyable eight minutes romp….” – film-authority.com Jan 31, 2026 Full Review Cold Storage (2026) 77% 4/5 EDIT “…a brisk, funny, entertaining little B-movie with A-List talent…Cold Storage is a splattery sci-fi comedy in a Shaun of the Dead vibe, the chance to see beloved stars getting deeply silly with it is the icing on this particular cake…” – film-authority.com Jan 30, 2026 Full Review Nouvelle Vague (2025) 92% 4/5 EDIT “…the Avengers Assemble of French cinema; everyone from Jean Cocteau to Robert Bresson to Francois Truffaut gets a scene or two to shine, and that makes Richard Linklater's Nouvelle Vauge a truly fascinating film for cineastes…” – film-authority.com Jan 29, 2026 Full Review Return to Silent Hill (2026) 19% 1/5 EDIT “…Return to Silent Hill is like a bad dream that you can’t wake up from, which oddly enough is what it was probably intended to be….this moth-eaten, video-game cash-in is the lamest kind of cinema imaginable….” – film-authority.com Jan 28, 2026 Full Review
