3.5/5
Regretting You (2025) Clotilde Chinnici Overall, Regretting You might be cheesy and admittedly a little predictable at times, but it’s still a fun – and at times emotional – watch for fans of the genre who will tear up and laugh out loud during the film’s two-hour runtime.

Alpha (2025) Victoria Luxford After two films that felt like nothing else out there, Ducournau’s biggest crime with Alpha may be making a film that feels familiar.

4/5
Dragonfly (2025) Victoria Luxford 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.

Relay (2024) Victoria Luxford Relay finds a balance between intelligence and entertainment, making for a bracing thriller that cuts through both surveillance culture and corporate responsibility.

Calle Málaga (2025) Clotilde Chinnici Ultimately, Calle Malaga is a beautiful and emotional movie. Anchored by a very strong performance, the film tells us a heartwarming story of love and loss where humour and happiness effortlessly alternate with more emotional and sombre moments.

4.5/5
Left-Handed Girl (2025) Clotilde Chinnici Overall, Left-Handed Girl is a charming and compelling drama about three generations of women and their journey of self-growth as they navigate both a new city and the traditional expectations that are placed upon them by society.

5/5
The Voice of Hind Rajab (2025) Clotilde Chinnici Overall, The Voice of Hind Rajab is a heartbreaking and admittedly hard watch, a very necessary one that reminds us that such horrors did happen, and are still happening, every day in Gaza, with countless lives lost.

4/5
Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery (2025) Clotilde Chinnici Overall, Wake Up Dead Man is a film that holds up very well on its own and that fans of the franchise are bound to like.

4/5
The Smashing Machine (2025) Victoria Luxford Safdie creates a vivid canvas for Blunt and Johnson’s gripping performances, showing that there may be yet another act to the muscle-bound actor’s fascinating career.

3/5
All of You (2024) Freda Cooper A nicely presented but familiar “will-they-wont-they?” romance, one that agrees with When Harry Met Sally's theory about men and women’s inability to be friends. But now a test finds your soulmate, so old-fashioned chemistry is very much in second place,

2/5
The Cut (2024) Victoria Luxford The Cut gets points for finding a different angle on the boxing movie, but it never quite capitalises on its premise, sitting awkwardly between psychological drama and horror, without fully embracing the strengths of either.

2/5
The Thursday Murder Club (2025) Victoria Luxford So cosy it becomes comatose, The Thursday Murder Club may feel comforting with its famous ensemble, but it lacks the bite to be anything more than a streaming diversion.

3.5/5
Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023) Clotilde Chinnici Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny is a film that will keep you hooked to the screen until the very end, turn after turn and plot twist after plot twist.

4/5
Going Varsity in Mariachi (2023) Clotilde Chinnici Going Varsity in Mariachi is an emotional documentary that really portrays the reality of competitive Mariachi playing, a very fascinating topic many of the viewers may not know have known about beforehand.

3.5/5
Lie with Me (2022) Clotilde Chinnici In an array of films on a similar topic, however, Lie With Me is not nearly as memorable as I would have hoped it to be, its plot and characters remaining somewhat forgettable in the end.

4/5
Theater Camp (2023) Clotilde Chinnici Theater Camp is for all the kids who needed theatre to find a place to fit in, who met some of their closest friends on stage, who were picked last in gym, and who can see parts of themselves in the characters in the film.

3/5
My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3 (2023) Clotilde Chinnici My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3 works as a sequel to a beloved franchise, but it plays too much on the nostalgia elements to really stand on its own as a film.

4/5
Cat Person (2023) Clotilde Chinnici Cat Person is undoubtedly an uncomfortable but necessary watch, one that equally made me laugh and feel the anxiety of the protagonist at the same time.

3.5/5
Rustin (2023) Clotilde Chinnici it is not solely an educational film but it fully engages its audience emotionally as well as we desperately want to see Rustin succeed in organising his march and being recognized for his efforts as part of the civil rights movement.

2.5/5
Napoleon (2023) Clotilde Chinnici Much of Napoleon felt like a parody of what an epic historical film would want to be with messy writing and a confusing tone that failed to engage me in the history of the characters portrayed on the screen
Posted Aug 19, 2025  Edit critic review
4/5
The Eternal Daughter (2022) Clotilde Chinnici The Eternal Daughter is undoubtedly an interesting film that will surely leave its viewers reflecting on it long after the movie’s final frame with a misty and chilling atmosphere that sets the tone of the whole story.

2.5/5
Rebel Moon: Part One - A Child of Fire (2023) Clotilde Chinnici A lot of Rebel Moon is confusing at worst and mediocre at best. There were a few interesting ideas that the film but most of them were only touched upon and not explored properly

3.5/5
Mean Girls (2024) Clotilde Chinnici Mean Girls had a tough act to follow with the inevitable comparison to the original film but it is a film that works for fans of the musicals and one that I thought was a lot of fun to revisit the 2004 film 20 years later.
Posted Aug 19, 2025  Edit critic review
3.5/5
American Fiction (2023) Clotilde Chinnici American Fiction is a powerful film, but it felt like watching a beautifully shot essay: while its message stayed with me, a lot of the plot ended up lost in the bigger message the movie wants to deliver.

3/5
Migration (2023) Clotilde Chinnici With some very strong elements, namely the voice actors, sound design, and animation style, Migration is a fun film that kids will arguably enjoy more than grown-ups.

3.5/5
Hamlet (2024) Clotilde Chinnici Hamlet is a film Shakespeare fans will love. Admittedly, it is a very good translation of one of the most famous and beautiful theatre plays for the screen, creating a successful union between the two mediums.

4/5
Damsel (2024) Clotilde Chinnici Damsel is a successful addition to the dark fantasy genre that fans of this type of film will surely enjoy for its masterful use of visual effects and fascinating inclusion of classical fairy tale tropes with an entirely new structure to it.

4.5/5
Origin (2023) Clotilde Chinnici Origin is an incredibly timely film that invites us to not only reflect on the three examples we are presented with, but also to apply this to our current political scene.

4/5
The Taste of Things (2023) Clotilde Chinnici The Taste of Things is a delicate and gentle film that lets the audience gain an insider look into the life of these characters, and their relationships, through the meals that they prepare and the very process of cooking.

4/5
Poor Things (2023) Clotilde Chinnici It is a bold film that is not afraid of making a strong statement both visually and with its script, and clearly, this has paid off, given the commercial and critical success the film has received ever since it came out.

2.5/5
Irish Wish (2024) Clotilde Chinnici Irish Wish could have been a great fantasy romantic comedic if only it had had better storytelling, structure, or dialogues. Instead, it is just mostly mediocre and rather disappointing

Monster (2023) Clotilde Chinnici Monster is beautifully directed and masterfully written, creating a film that is both painful, emotional, and somewhat tender and sweet in its final moments.

Kung Fu Panda 4 (2024) Clotilde Chinnici Nonetheless, Kong Fu Panda 4 is a film that fans of the series will undoubtedly enjoy and a nice addition to a story we know, love, and are more than happy to revisit.

Priscilla (2023) Clotilde Chinnici Priscilla is an intimate portrayal of the main character’s life, a character study into the woman behind one of the most famous men in the contemporary music industry and their controversial and somewhat troubling relationship.

1.5/5
Rebel Moon: Part Two - The Scargiver (2024) Clotilde Chinnici With nearly identical plot points and retelling of backstories we already know or could imagine well enough from the first one, ultimately the whole Rebel Moon saga feels like a copy of the sci-fi series everyone seems to look up to: Star Wars

3.5/5
IF (2024) Clotilde Chinnici Overall, IF is a film that reminds us of the sheer power of imagination and storytelling, one that we often forget about as adults but never really leaves us, if the film is anything to go by.

Hoard  (2023) Clotilde Chinnici Overall, this is a great directorial debut from Carmoon and I am excited to see her future directorial projects as she has proven herself to be a visionary director with a unique and striking visual style that stayed with me long after the movie ended

Skywalkers: A Love Story (2024) Clotilde Chinnici Ultimately, Skywalkers: A Love Story is a well-made documentary, even if its subject matter may not seem particularly interesting at first.

2.5/5
Sasquatch Sunset (2024) Clotilde Chinnici However, the film becomes repetitive very soon. Once you understand where the film is going and what tropes it holds dear, then it becomes fairly obvious to predict what scenes will eventually follow.

3.5/5
Kinds of Kindness (2024) Clotilde Chinnici Its brilliant performances and interesting plotlines – if not only a little absurd at times – elevate the movie and make it a true Lanthimos classic that fans of the director will recognise and love.

3/5
I Saw the TV Glow (2024) Clotilde Chinnici The movie tenderly speaks to the concept of realizing and actualizing one’s true identity with the TV programme acting as a metaphor for gender dysphoria and trans identity.

Malcolm X (1992) Clotilde Chinnici Ultimately, it is safe to say that Malcolm X is one of Spike Lee’s best films, one that has established him as one of the greatest American directors working today.

The Count of Monte Cristo (2024) Clotilde Chinnici Overall, The Count of Monte Cristo is a wonderful film that can appeal to both audiences who are familiar with Dumas’ novel as well as with those who are not and are discovering this timeless story for the very first time.

Eddington (2025) Victoria Luxford While Aster struggles when looking at the broader picture, his illustration of characters driven to extremes makes this modern fable frequently captivating.

3.5/5
Lee (2023) Clotilde Chinnici While Lee could have been structured a lot better narratively, this does not take anything away from the very powerful impact that the film is bound to have on its audience.

Joy (2024) Clotilde Chinnici It is far from being the best film of the year – or the best Netflix film at the London Film Festival – but the strong second act allows for an enjoyable watch.

Bird (2024) Clotilde Chinnici Elevated by wonderful performances and some inspired directing in some of the shots in the second half of the film, Arnold’s latest film is truly a gem

Grand Tour (2024) Clotilde Chinnici Grand Tour is undoubtedly masterfully directed and shot, but everything else seems to be lacking in a film from which I expected a lot more. In the end, the film falls into the classic trap of style over substance

3.5/5
The Weekend (2024) Clotilde Chinnici Ultimately, The Weekend is a film that will have the audience laugh, jump out of their seat, and even be a little emotional at times.
