No Other Choice (2025) 97% 4/5 EDIT “ It’s tense, absurd, desperate and daft, all at once: seldom have so many contradictory tones been so gainfully employed.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Jan 22, 2026 Full Review The Voice of Hind Rajab (2025) 95% 4/5 EDIT “Your view of this ardent, sobering chamber piece from Tunisia’s Kaouther Ben Hania will rest, I suspect, on your response to the knotty moral question posed by its very existence. ” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Jan 16, 2026 Full Review 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple (2026) 93% 4/5 EDIT “The leader of this crew, Sir Lord Jimmy Crystal, is played by Jack O’Connell with a Jack Nicholson-esque fiendish allure and an impressively specific Fife accent. Both he and Fiennes are tremendous, veering rivetingly between madcap and subdued.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Jan 13, 2026 Full Review People We Meet on Vacation (2026) 75% 3/5 EDIT “Basically, if you want to watch two attractive youngsters share a series of romantic near-misses across a string of idyllic holiday destinations, this film is for you.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Jan 9, 2026 Full Review Song Sung Blue (2025) 78% 2/5 EDIT “There’s a certain honour to this hyper-niche premise... But the result is often rather tiresome and insistent: to get the Diamond, you have to push through a fair bit of rough.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Jan 2, 2026 Full Review Avatar: Fire and Ash (2025) 66% 1/5 EDIT “That the franchise has already sunk to repeating itself in its third part does not inspire much confidence in the two still to come.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Dec 16, 2025 Full Review Goodbye June (2025) 65% 4/5 EDIT “ As a Christmas movie, this is a sweetly melancholic addition to the canon, and if it feels a little too familiar for comfort at times then it’s doing its job.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Dec 13, 2025 Full Review Fackham Hall (2025) 74% 1/5 EDIT “Usually, a spoof franchise would only feel this exhausted by the second or third sequel, so I suppose Fackham Hall deserves points for efficiency at least.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Dec 13, 2025 Full Review Dead Man's Wire (2025) 91% 4/5 EDIT “There’s a subtle, astute parable here about the media’s role in the shaping and streamlining of public morality – happily wrapped in a romp.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Dec 9, 2025 Full Review In the Hand of Dante (2025) 43% 1/5 EDIT “The historical sequences are pompous; the present-day ones preposterous. It’s a sort of accidental Monty Python’s Da Vinci Code – without jokes, though not entirely without laughs.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Dec 9, 2025 Full Review Marty Supreme (2025) 93% 5/5 EDIT “For its entire two and a half hours -- which whips past in what feels like mere minutes -- Safdie’s film had me vibrating like a tuning fork. It’s a joyous salute to life’s beautiful cacophony.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Dec 1, 2025 Full Review Zootopia 2 (2025) 91% 4/5 EDIT “Disney, when minded, can still do this stuff as well as anyone -- and in the pleasurable spring and snap of its animation, its at-times-unsettlingly comely character design, and set-pieces that swarm with humour and panache, Zootropolis 2 is proof.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Nov 25, 2025 Full Review Wicked: For Good (2025) 66% 1/5 EDIT “What makes it so frustrating is that director Jon M Chu is an established musicals master; his In the Heights is a modern classic of the form. But the corporate stretch-it-out-and-wring-it-dry approach here has been deadening. ” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Nov 18, 2025 Full Review Now You See Me: Now You Don't (2025) 60% 1/5 EDIT “Were these [tricks and stunts] to be performed live on stage they would of course be impressive, but the fact they’re all obviously visual effects, and have been scripted to succeed magnificently, makes them feel about as magical as a baked potato.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Nov 14, 2025 Full Review Christmas Karma (2025) 24% 0/5 EDIT “Christmas Karma is a film made with the best intentions by some lovely human beings, but which keeps finding new and spine-twistingly embarrassing ways to fall on its face.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Nov 12, 2025 Full Review The Running Man (2025) 62% 5/5 EDIT “It’s perhaps Wright’s first feature to feel, in a positive way, like the work of a director for hire: every flourish and trick here isn’t in service of a singular creative vision so much as a great, rumbling excitement machine.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Nov 11, 2025 Full Review Train Dreams (2025) 95% 4/5 EDIT “Director Clint Bentley and his co-writer Greg Kwedar...capture the plaintive beauty of Grainier’s life on the margins of 20th-century progress without hamming up the romance or laying on the grit; the airy, dappled photography is frequently stunning.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Nov 10, 2025 Full Review Relay (2024) 82% 4/5 EDIT “It has some of the cool muscularity of a classic Michael Mann movie – and one senses it’s no coincidence that the moment it dawns on Worthington that he’s being watched mirrors the equivalent Al Pacino scene in Heat.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Nov 2, 2025 Full Review Regretting You (2025) 29% 2/5 EDIT “The results are often risible, yet also weirdly anthropologically gripping, like watching aliens from the planet Photoshop dance a cryptic gavotte.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Oct 27, 2025 Full Review Ballad of a Small Player (2025) 48% 2/5 EDIT “But the psychological grace notes that make the opening act so intriguing get lost in the chaos – while the climactic twist, served up with the obligatory here’s-what-really-happened recap, asks the viewer...to swallow too much.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Oct 22, 2025 Full Review The Choral (2025) 67% 4/5 EDIT “This quietly plangent, drily comic piece about a choirmaster (Ralph Fiennes) staging an Elgar oratorio in a Yorkshire mill town superficially resembles one of those Blair-era underdog comedies that were all period-accurate pluck and regional accents...” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Oct 22, 2025 Full Review Saipan (2025) 90% 3/5 EDIT “Despite its limitations, Saipan gets the import and the mystery of that just right: it’s a watchable national identity crisis in microcosm. ” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Oct 22, 2025 Full Review & Sons (2025) 2/5 EDIT “Part of the trouble is that Trapero and his co-writer Sarah Polley have deleted or streamlined so many of the novel’s more intriguing tangents that the bits which remain end up as the plot equivalent of vestigial organs...” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Oct 22, 2025 Full Review Rental Family (2025) 87% 4/5 EDIT “It might not sound like much of a compliment, but Brendan Fraser is extraordinarily convincing as a marginally talented actor a few years past his sell-by date. ” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Oct 22, 2025 Full Review H Is for Hawk (2025) 78% 4/5 EDIT “ A prestige drama it may be, but it's at its best when it's a little messy and wild, and content to let the feathers fly. ” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Oct 21, 2025 Full Review
