Shelter (2026) 74% 3/5 EDIT “While the earlier promise of Shelter delivering on all fronts fades away in the film’s final act, Breathnach gives Statham one of his best co-stars in yonks – and the movie its heart. So while I may quibble, I will also be watching Shelter again.” – Metro Jan 28, 2026 Full Review Send Help (2026) 92% 4/5 EDIT “McAdams and O’Brien clearly relish letting rip in the gleefully vicious Send Help, which entertains, horrifies and makes painfully salient points about work culture equally. More genre mash-ups like this should be made – I welcomed every spurt of blood.” – Metro Jan 27, 2026 Full Review The Housemaid (2025) 74% 3/5 EDIT “Directed by Paul Feig (Bridesmaids), The Housemaid is a pulpy tongue-in-cheek adaptation of a breezy thriller that will slip down smoothly... But putting it up on the big screen does emphasise the more fanciful elements and plot holes.” – metro.co.uk Jan 13, 2026 Full Review Fackham Hall (2025) 74% 3/5 EDIT “The film claims a grand total of 278 jokes with only 36 used across both trailers, but these are undoubtedly a lot of the best bits... As with any spoof, it will always be seen at its best when playing to a large crowd.” – Metro Jan 13, 2026 Full Review 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple (2026) 92% 4/5 EDIT “28 Years Later: The Bone Temple is bold, bloody and bonkers filmmaking at its finest and needs to be seen to be believed – just maybe bring a sick bag.” – Metro Jan 13, 2026 Full Review Avatar: Fire and Ash (2025) 66% 3/5 EDIT “The bum-numbing Avatar: Fire and Ash proves no film needs to be 197 minutes long... It's a bit of a letdown in comparison to what’s come before. But this franchise still delivers spectacle like nothing else.” – Metro Dec 16, 2025 Full Review Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery (2025) 92% 3/5 EDIT “Wake Up Dead Man is an entertaining if uneven entry in the Knives Out franchise, which allows Craig and O’Connor to shine but often at the expense of the rest of the cast. It still provides top-class unseriousness - but I was left wanting a little more.” – Metro Nov 26, 2025 Full Review Wicked: For Good (2025) 66% 4/5 EDIT “Erivo and Grande are, somehow, even better in this second movie, despite having left no room for improvement last time. ” – Metro Nov 18, 2025 Full Review The Carpenter's Son (2025) 31% 4/5 EDIT “One of the most original and intriguing films I’ve seen this year and undeniably proves that a ‘horror’ movie can be so much more than what people usually expect from this oft-dismissed genre.” – metro.co.uk Nov 12, 2025 Full Review Regretting You (2025) 29% 2/5 EDIT “A lightweight family drama that tries to be poignant and weepy but also cool and hilarious... Most of the time it feels like an episode of The OC from after everybody stopped watching – it’s merely going through the motions with nothing to say for itself.” – Metro Oct 23, 2025 Full Review Anemone (2025) 53% 3/5 EDIT “If you have the patience, Anemone is an intriguing film and creative partnership that gives you plenty to mull over – but some simply won’t have the time for it. It is, however, a promising start from Ronan Day-Lewis and a welcome return for his father.” – metro.co.uk Oct 18, 2025 Full Review Is This Thing On? (2025) 86% 4/5 EDIT “Is This Thing On? mines the rich vein of real and honest comedy that can be found in moments of personal tragedy, without ever going over the top... An unexpected team-up produces a polished, funny and poignant film, beautifully performed and directed.” – metro.co.uk Oct 18, 2025 Full Review Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere (2025) 61% 4/5 EDIT “Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere is an earnest but surprisingly bruising and vulnerable biopic... White gives an incredibly intuitive performance that seems to perfectly match the chart-topper’s vibes, but it’s no imitation act.” – metro.co.uk Oct 18, 2025 Full Review Hamnet (2025) 86% 4/5 EDIT “Hamnet proves there’s still another way to take a subject as richly mined as Shakespeare and turn it on its head, presenting a stunningly visceral look at a literary legend as a man – and a father, and a husband to a remarkable woman. You will be moved.” – metro.co.uk Oct 13, 2025 Full Review Steve (2025) 78% 4/5 EDIT “It will take viewers back to their own school days in the most evocative and eye-opening of ways... Steve quietly grabs you at the throat and doesn’t let go for a stressful, sometimes funny, and often poignant 92 minutes, thanks to its outstanding cast.” – Metro Sep 18, 2025 Full Review 100 Nights of Hero (2025) 68% 4/5 EDIT “100 Nights of Hero has lots to (stylishly) say about and against societal convention that will particularly chime with women and the queer community... It has tongue-in-cheek fun turning a traditional type of fairytale on its head with flair and wit. ” – metro.co.uk Sep 9, 2025 Full Review The Testament of Ann Lee (2025) 88% 4/5 EDIT “It’s highly theatrical, experimental and sometimes weird, but so committed to its radical approach that I was not only won over, but actually moved. There’s also a career-best dramatic performance from Amanda Seyfried in the eponymous role.” – metro.co.uk Sep 5, 2025 Full Review In the Hand of Dante (2025) 43% 2/5 EDIT “Like Coppola’s Megalopolis, there’s a distinct impression of a veteran filmmaker left to run riot and turn in an overly indulgent and, at times, incomprehensible film that claims to address major themes but will most likely leave audiences baffled.” – Metro Sep 3, 2025 Full Review A HOUSE OF DYNAMITE (2025) 75% 5/5 EDIT “The exquisite and often unbearable tension of the movie consistently makes you feel like you’re in the room with these characters... It's one of the best films of 2025 and, more importantly to Bigelow, will have you thinking about its message days later.” – metro.co.uk Sep 3, 2025 Full Review The Smashing Machine (2025) 70% 4/5 EDIT “This part for this actor is a premise few will be able to resist... The indie package wrapped around Dwayne Johnson by Benny Safdie ensures The Smashing Machine gives the wrestler-turned-star-turned-actor his dream Hollywood reinvention.” – Metro Sep 3, 2025 Full Review The Wizard of the Kremlin (2025) 49% 3/5 EDIT “The Wizard of the Kremlin is solid enough but won’t attract rave reviews. Law’s nuanced performance as Vladimir Putin, however, deserves them... He absolutely nails the expressions of the politician to an almost unnerving degree,” – metro.co.uk Sep 3, 2025 Full Review Frankenstein (2025) 85% 4/5 EDIT “Isaac and Elordi [are] a perfect match for one another in challenging roles where they truly rise to the occasion, while del Toro continues to show why he’s a master of both the gothic and moviemaking... It’s the Frankenstein we all wanted from del Toro.” – metro.co.uk Sep 3, 2025 Full Review After the Hunt (2025) 37% 3/5 EDIT “While I was captivated by Roberts’ central performance as a flawed professor whose carefully maintained life threatens to be blown apart in the wreckage, the film left me feeling somewhat unfulfilled... After the Hunt shies away from any kind of statement” – metro.co.uk Aug 29, 2025 Full Review Jay Kelly (2025) 75% 4/5 EDIT “The unlikely but very likable star-powered double act of George Clooney and Adam Sandler work seamlessly together like old buddies. Despite usually occupying very different film categories, Jay Kelly provides both of them with their best film in years.” – metro.co.uk Aug 29, 2025 Full Review Bugonia (2025) 88% 4/5 EDIT “Emma Stone and Yorgos Lanthimos always provide audiences with attention-grabbing films to enjoy – but Bugonia might be their boldest, oddest collaboration yet... Just when you thought Lanthimos couldn’t get any weirder or darker, he’s assuring you he can.” – metro.co.uk Aug 29, 2025 Full Review
