It's Never Over, Jeff Buckley (2025) 98% 8/10 EDIT “It’s Never Over, Jeff Buckley is a beautiful celebration of artistry that reminds us that there’s more to a life than how it ends. Sincere and tender, it’s a fascinating watch for experts and newcomers alike” – Clash Magazine Feb 15, 2026 Full Review Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die (2025) 83% 8/10 EDIT “Verbinski plays with our sense of impending doom (and AI fear) in this loveable caper.” – Clash Magazine Feb 15, 2026 Full Review Wuthering Heights (2026) 59% 6/10 EDIT “No matter the caveats, comparisons will still be made with the story that inspired it, and in that sense "Wuthering Heights" is an interesting experiment that shocks more than it inspires. ” – Clash Magazine Feb 13, 2026 Full Review Baab (2026) 4/5 EDIT “Baab is a deeply personal walk through some of the darkest emotions human beings face. Al Khaja continues her journey as a filmmaker who pushes open thematic doors that were previously closed, and asks questions as only an innovator can.” – D Movies Feb 8, 2026 Full Review Primate (2025) 78% 7/10 EDIT “Likely to be a cult classic, Primate is a B-Movie with all the leaps in logic and laughable twists you’d expect. Simple but effective. ” – Clash Magazine Jan 29, 2026 Full Review 100 Nights of Hero (2025) 68% 8/10 EDIT “While a little thin at times, a gorgeous third act ties everything together, completing a delightful fairy tale about the power of storytelling. ” – Clash Magazine Jan 29, 2026 Full Review Nouvelle Vague (2025) 92% 4/5 EDIT “If you’ve never seen Breathless, or have no love for the French New Wave, Nouvelle Vague may leave you lost. However, cinephiles will absolutely adore this nostalgic recreation of a moment that ignited a passion for movies for millions.” – NME (New Musical Express) Jan 29, 2026 Full Review Bulk (2025) 77% 7/10 EDIT “It's delightful to see such an imaginative voice throw everything at the wall, creating a completely left-field science fiction parody that feels like a return to Wheatley’s roots” – Clash Magazine Jan 20, 2026 Full Review The History of Sound (2025) 70% 9/10 EDIT “With a final scene that will leave you in pieces, The History Of Sound sees beauty in tragedy, finding the perfect harmony between the two. ” – Clash Magazine Jan 20, 2026 Full Review 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple (2026) 92% 6/10 EDIT “ A little less bombastic than the last film, but a thrilling post-apocalyptic ride nonetheless. ” – Clash Magazine Jan 20, 2026 Full Review Sentimental Value (2025) 97% 7/10 EDIT “(The film) is at its best when getting to the core of its characters. ” – Clash Magazine Dec 18, 2025 Full Review Marty Supreme (2025) 94% 9/10 EDIT “A curiously brilliant tale, it cements its star as one of the best of his generation. ” – Clash Magazine Dec 18, 2025 Full Review Hamnet (2025) 86% 10/10 EDIT “With a jaw-droppingly beautiful ending, Hamnet deserves all the accolades, and as big an audience as possible. Just remember to bring some tissues” – Clash Magazine Dec 18, 2025 Full Review Avatar: Fire and Ash (2025) 66% 5/10 EDIT “The original was nicknamed "The Most Successful Film No One Remembers", and one would suspect the completed trilogy will be remembered in the same way.” – Clash Magazine Dec 18, 2025 Full Review Christy (2025) 67% 5/10 EDIT “There was a story to be told in Martin’s life about how even the strong can be devastated by domestic violence, or how the fight to live authentically can be a lifelong struggle. Sadly, Christy just isn’t the film to tell that tale. ” – Clash Magazine Nov 27, 2025 Full Review Pillion (2025) 100% 7/10 EDIT “The second half evolves into a touching exploration of what happens when physical desire and emotional needs become at odds with one another. A risqué but ultimately worthwhile journey. ” – Clash Magazine Nov 27, 2025 Full Review Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery (2025) 92% 8/10 EDIT “Johnson’s rage against the alt-right is still thinly veiled, but Wake Up Dead Man recaptures a lot of the fun that made the first film a surprise hit. ” – Clash Magazine Nov 27, 2025 Full Review Predator: Badlands (2025) 86% 8/10 EDIT “A thoroughly enjoyable action movie that will satisfy die-hards and newcomers alike. ” – Clash Magazine Nov 14, 2025 Full Review The Running Man (2025) 62% 8/10 EDIT “While perhaps unlikely to attain the same cult status as its predecessor, The Running Man is a heck of a lot of fun from a filmmaker who has proven time and again that he can make big scale action with a brain. ” – Clash Magazine Nov 14, 2025 Full Review Alpha (2025) 56% 3/5 EDIT “After two films that felt like nothing else out there, Ducournau’s biggest crime with Alpha may be making a film that feels familiar. ” – The People's Movies Nov 11, 2025 Full Review Dragonfly (2025) 92% 4/5 EDIT “An interesting exercise in cinematic foreboding, Dragonfly takes some big risks with its impressive leads, resulting in a story that will play on your mind for a while. ” – The People's Movies Nov 11, 2025 Full Review All American (2024) 4/5 EDIT “Equal parts uplifting and frustrating, All American gives an authentic and passionate tribute to those who overcome immense obstacles to pursue their dreams. ” – D Movies Nov 5, 2025 Full Review Anemone (2025) 53% 4/10 EDIT “(The script is) well-beneath such a prestigious return, and other than flashes of brilliance from the Gangs Of New York legend, it’s a bleak and unsatisfying trip up North. ” – Clash Magazine Oct 31, 2025 Full Review Relay (2024) 82% 4/5 EDIT “Relay finds a balance between intelligence and entertainment, making for a bracing thriller that cuts through both surveillance culture and corporate responsibility.” – The People's Movies Oct 31, 2025 Full Review Bugonia (2025) 88% 4/5 EDIT “Bugonia’s shock and awe prompts a discussion about internet culture that hits worryingly close to home. It’s another win for his ongoing partnership with Stone, who may be abducting another Oscar in a few months’ time.” – NME (New Musical Express) Oct 31, 2025 Full Review
