Nouvelle Vague (2025) 91% 3.5/5 EDIT “The fashion is on point, the attitude is off the charts, the black-and-white imagery is stunning, and the birth of the fabled ‘French New Wave’ (and its lasting influence) is there for all to see.” – Daily Telegraph (Australia) Jan 15, 2026 Full Review Hamnet (2025) 86% 5/5 EDIT “The work of Jessie Buckley in Hamnet features some of the most intricate, expressive and utterly convincing acting of the modern era. ” – Daily Telegraph (Australia) Jan 15, 2026 Full Review The SpongeBob Movie: Search for SquarePants (2025) 81% EDIT “Straightforwardly silly cartooning that puts a smiles on the dial without testing the patience.” – Daily Telegraph (Australia) Dec 30, 2025 Full Review Song Sung Blue (2025) 78% EDIT “Hugh pouring on the charm and putting on a show, with many a Neil Diamond earworm to lift the spirits. ” – Daily Telegraph (Australia) Dec 30, 2025 Full Review Sentimental Value (2025) 97% 4/5 EDIT “It is a movie that earns your trust carefully, and makes good on the deal in so many wonderful ways. ” – Daily Telegraph (Australia) Dec 30, 2025 Full Review Rental Family (2025) 87% EDIT “This amiable comedy-drama should prove to make a great fit for [Fraser's] talents. ” – Daily Telegraph (Australia) Dec 30, 2025 Full Review The Marching Band (2024) 96% EDIT “A huge hit in its native France, this uplifting, moving and subtly funny affair has been making friends right around the world. ” – Daily Telegraph (Australia) Dec 30, 2025 Full Review The Housemaid (2025) 74% EDIT “Sweeney is well-cast as the au pair with a criminal record who lands a job with Seyfried’s dangerously unhinged woman of wealth.” – Daily Telegraph (Australia) Dec 30, 2025 Full Review Anaconda (2025) 48% EDIT “While there will be several sightings of those sinister slithers, the emphasis here is more on Jumanji-style family comedy than blood-drenched biting and fighting.” – Daily Telegraph (Australia) Dec 30, 2025 Full Review The History of Sound (2025) 70% EDIT “While the movie does lose some vital narrative momentum in its final act, a delicately convincing emotional balance held by Mescal and O’Connor throughout is rewarding through to the bitter(sweet) end.” – Daily Telegraph (Australia) Dec 17, 2025 Full Review Avatar: Fire and Ash (2025) 66% 3.5/5 EDIT “Like the Avatars that came before it, Fire and Ash conjures true movie magic when it comes to complete and total immersion in another world.” – Daily Telegraph (Australia) Dec 17, 2025 Full Review Eternity (2025) 77% 2.5/5 EDIT “This is a fresh and lively concept for a rom-com, and the movie confidently sets it all up in fine style.” – Daily Telegraph (Australia) Dec 11, 2025 Full Review Five Nights at Freddy's 2 (2025) 16% 1.5/5 EDIT “The sequel struggles to raise pulses or pique curiosity throughout.” – Daily Telegraph (Australia) Dec 11, 2025 Full Review Ella McCay (2025) 22% 2/5 EDIT “There is a lot – no, make that way too much – going on in Ella McCay for it to stand a chance of making any coherent sense for too long.” – Daily Telegraph (Australia) Dec 11, 2025 Full Review Twiggy (2024) 100% 3.5/5 EDIT “A fun, but in no way frivolous experience directed in lively fashion by Sadie Frost (Quant).” – Daily Telegraph (Australia) Dec 4, 2025 Full Review Nuremberg (2025) 72% 4/5 EDIT “Anchoring proceedings with impressive gravity is a brilliant performance by Russell Crowe as Hitler’s chillingly charismatic second-in-command, the notorious Hermann Goring.” – Daily Telegraph (Australia) Dec 4, 2025 Full Review Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery (2025) 92% 4/5 EDIT “As always with a Knives Out affair, the expert construction of Wake Up Dead Man’s baffling murder teases performances of great wit, treachery and skill from a top-notch cast. ” – Daily Telegraph (Australia) Dec 4, 2025 Full Review Train Dreams (2025) 95% 4/5 EDIT “The achingly slow pacing and deeply contemplative tone of this movie – reminiscent in many ways of the work of director Terrence Malick (Badlands, Tree of Life) – will not accommodate all tastes or attention spans. ” – Daily Telegraph (Australia) Dec 1, 2025 Full Review Dead of Winter (2025) 75% 3.5/5 EDIT “Thompson’s gritty effort goes far beyond what anyone might have assumed this decorated performer is capable of, and is reason enough for all viewers to stick around for one heck of a final act.” – Daily Telegraph (Australia) Dec 1, 2025 Full Review Zootopia 2 (2025) 91% 3.5/5 EDIT “While this frenetic follow-up is consistently very good in almost all departments, it cannot be denied that the prevailing vibe here is more disposable than memorable. ” – Daily Telegraph (Australia) Dec 1, 2025 Full Review Keeper (2025) 53% 3/5 EDIT “While this creepy cabin-in-the-woods affair is creatively deceptive and darkly amusing at all times, there is also a feeling that the movie is sometimes being far too enigmatic for its own good. ” – Daily Telegraph (Australia) Nov 21, 2025 Full Review Jay Kelly (2025) 75% 3.5/5 EDIT “As effective a fit as Clooney proves to be for the conflicted and unhealthily self-centred title character, the glue truly holding everything together is the soulfully understated and sincere performance of Sandler.” – Daily Telegraph (Australia) Nov 21, 2025 Full Review Wicked: For Good (2025) 66% 3/5 EDIT “While Wicked: For Good only features two musical numbers that match the melodious peaks scaled by its predecessor, there is a distinctly deeper and subtly darker emphasis on story here that will keep a captive audience invested, connected and excited.” – Daily Telegraph (Australia) Nov 21, 2025 Full Review If I Had Legs I'd Kick You (2025) 92% 2.5/5 EDIT “Though the movie itself is an acquired taste to say the least, there are elements to Byrne’s intense performance that suggests there will be a number of major dramatic roles heading her way in years to come.” – Daily Telegraph (Australia) Nov 12, 2025 Full Review Now You See Me: Now You Don't (2025) 60% 3/5 EDIT “While this is very much a popcorn flick designed to consumed and forgotten in a hurry, there is a creative flair to many of the elaborate set-piece tricks that will linger in the memory ” – Daily Telegraph (Australia) Nov 12, 2025 Full Review
