The Day the Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Movie
(2024)

Kambole Campbell

It’s pure, joyful cartooning, the likes of which has no expiry date.

Little Amélie or the Character of Rain
(2025)
|
David Jenkins
|
With its vibrant use of colour, expressive character design and flights of expressionist fancy, Little Amélie offers a lyrical vision of early-years development and so much more.

Whistle
(2025)

Patrick Sproull

There was room to do something ridiculous here – it bears repeating: this is a film about a killer whistle. Why is it taking itself so seriously?

Crime 101
(2026)
|
Hannah Strong
|
The lack of curiosity about its own material prevents Crime 101 from truly setting itself apart; moments of intrigue and minor thrills seem destined to fade away in the memory rather than inspire future imitators.

Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die
(2025)
|
Esther Rosenfield
|
The film is structured around flashbacks showing how each member of Rockwell’s team came to the diner that night. Each one plays like a rejected Black Mirror episode, full of painfully obvious satirical broadsides at modern technology.

It's Never Over, Jeff Buckley

The Strangers: Chapter 3
(2026)

Ultimately The Strangers: Chapter 3 offers no redeemable qualities and is so vacuously unremarkable that it is already in the process of being forgotten.

Wuthering Heights
(2026)

Hannah Strong

There is nothing that resonates below the surface here; this is a half-remembered story dressed in a beautiful gown that seems destined for TikTok fan edits and Pinterest mood boards rather than soul-stirring emotional catharsis.

Statham’s impressive physicality does little to add much juice to a film that expends much of its energy cleaving tightly to tired formula, with a script that is almost wall-to-wall cliché.

David Bowie: The Final Act
