Inside Out 2 (2024) 91% EDIT “Envy, Embarrassment, Ennui and Anxiety begin to dominate the mind of struggling teen Riley in this witty Inside Out follow up that feels too similar to the original. ” – Sight & Sound Dec 22, 2025 Full Review The Imaginary (2023) 91% EDIT “The Imaginary is more classical: it is designed and animated in a Miyazaki-esque mode to match the story, notwithstanding the pronounced use of CGI and small innovations like the dimensional shading on the characters.” – Sight & Sound Dec 22, 2025 Full Review Piece By Piece (2024) 83% EDIT “A new animated documentary presents the life of musician Pharrell Williams in an enjoyable and surprising Lego package. ” – Sight & Sound Nov 20, 2025 Full Review The Wild Robot (2024) 97% EDIT “It may not have the focus and flair of How to Train Your Dragon, but Chris Sanders’ quirky tale of an unlikely bond between an upbeat android and an orphaned gosling has a lot of heart. ” – Sight & Sound Nov 20, 2025 Full Review Better Man (2024) 89% EDIT “Director Michael Gracey’s portrayal of young Robbie Williams’ rise to pop stardom resembles countless other music biopics, only here, the star is presented matter-of-factly as a chimpanzee. A bizarre conceit, but somehow, it works. ” – Sight & Sound Nov 11, 2025 Full Review Klaus (2019) 95% EDIT “It's a playful conceit: a reverse-Grinch narrative in which misanthropy gives birth to Christmas. Klaus celebrates this irony, mining laughs from scenes in which the nasty protagonists unwittingly invent beloved seasonal myths. But boy, are they nasty.” – Sight & Sound Nov 11, 2019 Full Review Dumbo (2019) 46% EDIT “While Dumbo has the premise of a Burton movie - an outsider cast adrift in a carnivalesque world - it hardly feels like one, with the director's signature visual style subsumed into a world of sunset hues and glassy CG veneers.” – Sight & Sound Apr 2, 2019 Full Review The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part (2019) 84% 5 EDIT “The Lego Movie 2 has serious points to make about human relationships but undermines them by always reverting to a stance of cheeky self-awareness.” – Sight & Sound Feb 17, 2019 Full Review Sanctuary (2016) 100% EDIT “Thoughtful, nuanced and fun, Sanctuary subverts received ideas about disability in its very approach to filmmaking.” – Sight & Sound Dec 28, 2017 Full Review Song of the Sea (2014) 99% EDIT “This is a bold and unusual film, which takes material that will be unfamiliar to most viewers and interprets it with more inventiveness than they will be used to.” – Sight & Sound Jul 16, 2015 Full Review Jauja (2014) 88% 4/5 EDIT “'Jauja' is a film to make you wonder.” – Time Out Apr 7, 2015 Full Review The Tale of the Princess Kaguya (2013) 100% 4/5 EDIT “Plays out as a wistful, slow-burning romance, underscored with a streak of social satire and animated in exquisitely subtle pastels and watercolours.” – Time Out Mar 17, 2015 Full Review Me, Myself and Mum (2013) 83% 1/5 EDIT “Every social group is reduced to the crudest clich.” – Time Out Dec 2, 2014 Full Review The King and the Mockingbird (1980) 100% 5/5 EDIT “yrical, satirical and hugely entertaining, it deserves a wider audience. Hopefully, with this welcome re-release, it will find one.” – Time Out Nov 18, 2014 Full Review Attila Marcel (2013) 79% 3/5 EDIT “The offbeat comedy threatens to suffocate the film, seeping into every scene and nipping any attempts at characterisation or emotional resonance in the bud.” – Time Out Sep 3, 2014 Full Review Under the Rainbow (2013) 64% 2/5 EDIT “Jaoui's debt to Woody Allen is more glaring than ever: some of the characters are just a bundle of neuroses.” – Time Out Jun 24, 2014 Full Review Miss Violence (2013) 80% 3/5 EDIT “From the not-so-happy birthday that opens the film ... up to the harrowing final revelation, Miss Violence fulfils the grisly promise of its title.” – Time Out Jun 17, 2014 Full Review
