The Alto Knights (2025) 40% 3/5 “It all feels like handsomely crafted Scorsese-lite, but enjoyably so, like sinking into a shabby but much-loved armchair.” – Empire Magazine Mar 19, 2025 Full Review The Order (2024) 92% 4/5 “The Order is as tense and visceral as it is timely.” – Empire Magazine Feb 19, 2025 Full Review Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy (2025) 88% 4/5 “The sequel we didn’t know we needed, Mad About The Boy is a heartfelt, charming return to the chaos surrounding the one and only Bridget Jones. You might even shed a few tears.” – Empire Magazine Feb 19, 2025 Full Review Hard Truths (2024) 95% 4/5 “A gruelling but ultimately rewarding experience, this is Leigh at his most confrontational, devastating and humane, aided by the unadulterated power of Jean-Baptiste’s career-redefining performance.” – Empire Magazine Feb 4, 2025 Full Review Companion (2025) 93% 3/5 “Entertaining if inconsequential, Companion is buoyed by solid central performances from actors that seem keenly aware that it’s all just a bit of bloody fun. Viva la robot revolución!” – Empire Magazine Feb 4, 2025 Full Review Here (2024) 37% 2/5 “Another deeply flawed, tech-forward endeavour for Zemeckis in which glimmers of human emotion only occasionally break through. Like Cloud Atlas for baby boomers experiencing late-middle-age malaise.” – Empire Magazine Feb 4, 2025 Full Review Rumours (2024) 75% 3/5 “If you like your satire incisive you should perhaps look elsewhere, but the state of the world looks even more laughably absurd through Maddin and the Johnsons’ wickedly warped lens.” – Empire Magazine Dec 10, 2024 Full Review Timestalker (2024) 87% 3/5 “Timestalker lacks a little humour and insight into obsessive love to make it truly sing, but it’s an admirably ambitious fable that could be destined to become a cult oddity.” – Empire Magazine Oct 8, 2024 Full Review The Outrun (2024) 82% 3/5 “Although sometimes baggy and uncontrolled, The Outrun is a sensitive, non-judgemental portrayal of addiction and mental illness, anchored by a typically transcendent performance from Saoirse Ronan.” – Empire Magazine Sep 27, 2024 Full Review The Substance (2024) 89% 4/5 “Feminist scholarship this ain’t; think Showgirls if it were directed by David Cronenberg. But give yourself permission to revel in the excess and be rewarded with an uproariously good time.” – Empire Magazine Sep 16, 2024 Full Review I Saw the 온라인카지노추천 Glow (2024) 84% 5/5 “Visceral and intensely moving, this film feels like something you’d stumble across on 온라인카지노추천 in the small hours and never forget. It might herald a new era for queer cinema.” – Empire Magazine Jul 22, 2024 Full Review Thelma (2024) 98% 4/5 “On paper, Thelma may sound unbearably twee, the kind of film that relies heavily on old people saying the darnedest things to win laughs. But the film is buoyed by a consistently funny script, real pathos and stellar comic performances. ” – Empire Magazine Jul 16, 2024 Full Review Here (2023) 94% 4/5 “At only 84 minutes and light on plot, at times this film feels so slight that it might just slip through your fingers. And yet its ethereality is what makes it enchanting.” – Little White Lies Jun 11, 2024 Full Review La Chimera (2023) 95% 4/5 “Enigmatic, absorbing and so much more alive than any pottery behind glass in a museum, this is an exquisitely crafted, grown-up Indiana Jones steeped in its own distinctive magic.” – Empire Magazine May 10, 2024 Full Review Love Lies Bleeding (2024) 94% 4/5 “Visceral and heady, this is a blood-soaked, all-American fable that’s as if Thelma And Louise literally went on steroids. Rose Glass is a force to be reckoned with.” – Empire Magazine Mar 26, 2024 Full Review Wicked Little Letters (2023) 80% 3/5 “Repetitive insults do most of the heavy lifting for this comedy, but any time spent with actors as skilled as Colman and Buckley is time enjoyably spent.” – Empire Magazine Mar 5, 2024 Full Review The End We Start From (2023) 89% 3/5 “Prettily shot and with moments of emotional power thanks to Jodie Comer's performance, The End We Start From is involving and unpredictable, yet strangely cold when it should be searing.” – Empire Magazine Jan 17, 2024 Full Review Anatomy of a Fall (2023) 96% 4/5 “Surprisingly gripping for a film devoid of real action, this family drama masquerading as a murder-mystery touches on universal marital tensions; it is both enigmatic and very human.” – Empire Magazine Nov 8, 2023 Full Review Cat Person (2023) 46% 2/5 “Adapting a relatively uneventful short story was always going to be tricky, and despite some strong performances and wry observations, Cat Person’s disastrous ending takes everything else down with it.” – Empire Magazine Oct 26, 2023 Full Review The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar (2023) 95% 4/5 “A delightful first instalment in a planned quartet of short films, Anderson and Dahl’s sensibilities continuing to be a match made in heaven.” – Empire Magazine Sep 25, 2023 Full Review Heart of Stone (2023) 31% 2/5 “Heart Of Stone is a perfectly watchable and often daft bit of fun, but its mission to supersede Ethan Hunt might prove to be impossible.” – Empire Magazine Aug 11, 2023 Full Review The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry (2023) 74% 2/5 “Broadbent and Wilton are as reliable as ever, but this tear-jerker mostly feels removed from real human emotion. It might inspire you to go for a nice walk, though.” – Empire Magazine Apr 27, 2023 Full Review She Is Love (2022) 32% 2/5 “A totally improbable scenario is hardly rare for a romantic film, but it’s harder to look past when characters are so thinly drawn. Pleasant enough but instantly forgettable.” – Empire Magazine Feb 6, 2023 Full Review More than Ever (2022) 94% 2/5 “Strong performances and beautifully shot, but not really much meat on the bone.” – Little White Lies Jan 19, 2023 Full Review She Said (2022) 88% 3/5 “Pedestrian in style but compelling and deeply moving at times.” – Little White Lies Nov 23, 2022 Full Review
