Death of a Unicorn (2025) 54% 2/5 “This is sadly unsuccessful as both an eat-the-rich satire and a schlocky B-movie. ” – Empire Magazine Apr 9, 2025 Full Review A Working Man (2025) 49% 1/5 “Like a parody of a Jason Statham film, without any of the joy that might imply. This Working Man just doesn’t work.” – Empire Magazine Mar 31, 2025 Full Review Novocaine (2025) 81% 3/5 “A largely painless viewing experience — but it could have been far more pleasurable.” – Empire Magazine Mar 25, 2025 Full Review Ne Zha 2 (2025) 96% 3/5 “At once awe-inspiring, jaw-dropping, eye-rolling and head-scratching, this is animated cinema on a scale rarely seen. It doesn’t always hang together, but on its box-office achievements alone, Ne Zha 2 has earned a place with the immortals.” – Empire Magazine Mar 25, 2025 Full Review Opus (2025) 41% 3/5 “All is very much what it seems from another one of these all-is-not-what-it-seems thrillers — but there are fun, enjoyably unhinged performances from Edebiri and Malkovich.” – Empire Magazine Mar 19, 2025 Full Review The Electric State (2025) 15% 3/5 “The Electric State loses some of the quiet profundity of the original text, but as a breezily watchable retrofuturistic jolly, it has just enough juice.” – Empire Magazine Mar 8, 2025 Full Review Black Bag (2025) 96% 4/5 “More John le Carré than James Bond, this is a very entertaining thriller, which applies Soderbergh’s well-trodden heist mechanics to espionage with slickly rewarding results.” – Empire Magazine Mar 8, 2025 Full Review Flow (2024) 97% 5/5 “No ebbs here: Flow is the real deal.” – Empire Magazine Mar 8, 2025 Full Review Fight or Flight (2025) 100% 3/5 “A solid bit of high-concept B-movie fun, establishing Josh Hartnett as a credible action hero, and James Madigan as a genre director to watch.” – Empire Magazine Mar 4, 2025 Full Review Love Hurts (2025) 19% 2/5 “Quan is typically charismatic in a film that underserves his talents: an action-comedy with a solid amount of the former, but not much of the latter.” – Empire Magazine Feb 11, 2025 Full Review Get Away (2024) 74% 3/5 “Funny and shocking, Get Away is not always a successful holiday-gone-wrong, but its bloody bonkers final act makes it worth the trip.” – Empire Magazine Jan 16, 2025 Full Review Bank of Dave (2023) 86% 3/5 “More unsubtly crowd-pleasing, Burnley-based ebullience, which gets by on its unimpeachably virtuous message — and a gloriously garrulous performance from the always-reliable Rory Kinnear.” – Empire Magazine Jan 16, 2025 Full Review Maria (2024) 75% 4/5 “La Diva Eterna lives in Jolie, with a performance as towering as it is understated: sad and soulful and heartbreaking. She has never been better. Brava!” – Empire Magazine Dec 24, 2024 Full Review Unstoppable (2024) 76% 3/5 “Reassuringly formulaic, this is a straightforwardly inspirational-by-numbers sports movie, made watchable thanks to Jharrel Jerome and Jennifer Lopez. ” – Empire Magazine Dec 10, 2024 Full Review The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim (2024) 48% 3/5 “This is something of an unexpected journey for Middle-earth on screen. It never scrapes the heights of Jackson’s trilogy — few do — but amid a messy meeting of worlds, there are stirring moments.” – Empire Magazine Dec 10, 2024 Full Review Nightbitch (2024) 59% 3/5 “Its wackier moments sometimes feel like they have more bark than bite, but as an uncommonly honest and authentic depiction of motherhood, Nightbitch will come as sharp relief to mums everywhere.” – Empire Magazine Dec 10, 2024 Full Review Our Little Secret (2024) 37% 2/5 “A typically formulaic seasonal sugar rush that’s only blandly mediocre, rather than so-bad-it’s-good. But Lindsay Lohan’s romcom-dominance cannot be denied.  ” – Empire Magazine Dec 10, 2024 Full Review Spellbound (2024) 48% 3/5 “A solid if fairly derivative attempt to steal Disney’s thunder. There’s enough pep and vigour here to keep kids interested, if not quite enough for the grown-ups. ” – Empire Magazine Dec 10, 2024 Full Review Queer (2024) 77% 3/5 “A feverish, quietly sad exploration of longing and infatuation. Its lack of focus stifles the experience, but Daniel Craig has rarely been as compelling a watch.” – Empire Magazine Dec 10, 2024 Full Review A Complete Unknown (2024) 82% 3/5 “Anyone looking for a revelatory portrait of an iconic artist might be a smidge disappointed. But as conventional as it is, this is still a strikingly well-made musical drama with pitch-perfect performances. ” – Empire Magazine Dec 10, 2024 Full Review Piece By Piece (2024) 83% 3/5 “Piece By Piece’s very existence is baffling, and the Lego of it all is never entirely justified, but as an unconventional documentary of a maverick musician, it works — just about.” – Empire Magazine Nov 13, 2024 Full Review Emilia Pérez (2024) 72% 3/5 “Jacques Audiard’s outlandish musical thriller is a little jumbled, and a little misjudged in the treatment of its characters. But you can’t doubt its audaciousness.” – Empire Magazine Nov 6, 2024 Full Review Juror #2 (2024) 93% 4/5 “If this is to be a swansong, it’s a fitting one: a thrillingly watchable legal thriller about truth, justice and (for better and for worse) the American way, as told by an all-American icon. ” – Empire Magazine Nov 6, 2024 Full Review Music by John Williams (2024) 100% 4/5 “It’s a very straightforward story, but there is no doubting the heartfelt nature of the telling — and the subject matter is unimpeachable. John Williams was the best to ever do it, and this film is a good reminder of how, and why.” – Empire Magazine Oct 29, 2024 Full Review It's What's Inside (2024) 79% 4/5 “An ingenious, wildly stylish new take on the body-swap movie, this deserves to be a Gen-Z cult classic. ” – Empire Magazine Oct 8, 2024 Full Review
