“A handsome and sincere study of a burdened young man, although its protagonist can be unnecessarily infuriating.” –

“Stuffed with familiar comic talent, it’s a hilarious quotefest, but also a surprisingly satisfying lowkey mystery.” –

Butterfly Tale (2023)
1
“A simple story about both the power of cooperation and the discovery of one’s own unique talents, but its perfunctory plotting and horribly cheap visuals overpower its inclusive message.” –

“Will Gilbey‘s directorial debut doesn’t stray far from John Carpenter’s template of a contemporised siege western, but hits every beat of this taut chamber piece with economic precision.” –

That They May Face the Rising Sun (2023)

“A slow steeping in the rhythms and rituals of a community in the rural Ireland of the 1980s, what Collins’ adaptation of John McGahern‘s final novel lacks in incident it more than makes up for in rich character and a gruff, earthy compassion.” –

“Sébastien Vanicek‘s debut is a little oddly paced, but has a class-conscious core and a pleasantly anarchist ACAB streak.” –

Prey (2024)
1
“There’s always something mildly repulsive about narratives that credit God for a protagonist’s survival but apportion no blame to Him for putting them into that scrape in the first instance, and it’s even worse when the film itself is a stinker. ” –

Nezouh (2022)

“With a dynamism that almost bulges the walls that confine our heroine, Nezouh negates overt carnage in favour of a subjective, magical-realist point of view.” –

“In a narrative that sees a collision between tradition and modernity, repression and expression, and childhood and adolescence, it also struggles itself between highbrow and B-movie tendencies.” –

Hoard (2023)
94%
4
“It’s looks like a standard British social drama, but could well appeal to genre fans. There’s an edge of both body horror, and the kind of transgressive sexual energy that powers something like Cronenberg’s Crash, or Steven Shainberg‘s Secretary.” –

“It may be slightly lacking in terms of laughter, aiming for the heartstrings instead, but given the dearth of quality family entertainment recently, <i>IF</i> is a welcome tonic.” –

“A decent cast make a fist of attempted redemption, elevating the material through sheer will, but the dirt and the gun oil under its fingernails can’t disguise the simple cautionary melodrama at its centre.” –

The Garfield Movie (2024)

“Garfield as a character lives in a perpetual present defined by his most urgent needs: food, sleep, the tormenting of Odie. Suddenly giving him a backstory is antithetical to the notion of the character itself.” –

“The themes of <i>In Flames</i> are stark and blunt, the execution anything but. It’s a slippery and hallucinatory experience that never lets its ghostly trappings overpower the very real dangers it depicts.” –

“Although a cerebral film, it’s arguably Bonello’s most accessible. The compartmentalised structure makes the runtime more than palatable, and the repeated symbols and motifs he uses throughout are clear in their utility” –

Four Little Adults (2023)

“Potentially tricky material handled with a light touch and a correspondingly breezy tone, yet even though it is consistently entertaining, it feels like it doesn’t peer too deeply below its surface and shies away from its trickier implications.” –

To Kill a Wolf (2024)
