CAST: Glen Powell, Margaret Qualley, Jessica Henwick, Bill Camp, Zach Woods, Topher Grace, Ed Harris, Bianca Amato, Raff Law, Sean Cameron Michael, Alexander Hanson, Stevel Mark, Phumi Tau, Adrian Lukis, James Frecheville, Nell Williams

CREW: John Patton Ford (director, writer), Graham Broadbent, Peter Czernin and Adam Friedlander (producers), Emile Mosseri (composer), Todd Benhazl (cinematographer), Harrison Atkins (editor)

PLOT: Becket Redfellow (Powell), a blue-collar man who since birth has been disowned by his obscenely wealthy family, sets out to reclaim his multi-billion-dollar inheritance by any means necessary…

FIVE REASONS TO BE EXCITED:

• The term “blood money” takes on a whole new meaning in this darkly funny caper that takes aim at the common desire for insurmountable fortune
• Glen Powell is our slightly misguided anti-hero, in yet another compelling lead turn where he gets to flex his leading man skills opposite the likes of Margaret Qualley and Ed Harris
• Writer-director John Patton Ford’s film is a loose remake of the classic British comedy Kind Hearts and Coronets, which famously featured Alec Guinness in no fewer than eight different roles!
• Similar to Dexter, you are morbidly on Powell’s side as he offs numerous rich-as-hell people who are morally much worse than he is
• It’s a fun ride filled with surprises, betrayals, and a welcome helping of charm thanks to its endlessly charismatic leading man

How to Make a Killing is showing in cinemas from Wednesday 11 March 2025

CAST: Maika Monroe, Tyriq Withers, Rudy Pankow, Lauren Graham, Bradley Whitford, Lainey Wilson, Jennifer Robertson, Zoe Kosovic, Monika Myers, Hilary Jardine, Nicholas Duvernay

CREW: Vanessa Caswill (director), Colleen Hoover and Lauren Lavine (writers, producers), Gina Matthews (producer), Tom Howe (composer), Tim Ives (cinematographer), Michelle Harrison (editor)

PLOT: After being released from prison following a seven-year sentence for the accidental death of her boyfriend Scotty (Pankow), Kenna Rowan (Monroe) returns to her hometown to try and reunite with her young daughter Diem (Kosovic) only to face adamant refusal, with only the compassion of local bar owner Ledger (Withers) keeping her hopeful…

FIVE REASONS TO BE EXCITED:

• The third feature film adaptation of the best-selling works of Colleen Hoover, following It Ends with Us and Regretting You, is perhaps the most emotional book-to-screen transition yet
• Tragedy is of course central to this story, as it is in Hoover’s other novels, but there is an added layer of compassion which makes the main focus feel more palatable than before
• Maika Monroe delivers an exceptionally emotional lead turn as she experiences guilt, heartbreak and even love opposite co-star Tyriq Withers
• County music fans will also recognise that rising star Lainey Wilson is among the sturdy supporting cast, alongside veterans like Lauren Graham and Bradley Whitford
• It’s a dramatic tale of love, regret, forgiveness and the possibility of a second chance that some of us deserve more than others

Reminders of Him is showing in cinemas from Friday 13 March 2026

CAST: Danny Dyer, Elliott Rogers, Carlos Bardem, Katy Cavanagh-Jupe, Jahmaal Noel Fyffe, Dagmar Döring, Demetri Goritsas

CREW: Brendan Muldowney (director), Peter Howlett (writer), Richard Bolger, Paul Kennedy and Patrick O’Neill (producers), Stephen McKeon (composer), Narayan Van Maele (cinematographer), Tony Cranstoun (editor)

PLOT: Jimmy Banks (Dyer) is a ruthless old-school football agent desperately trying to score a final deal for his biggest client before his career and reputation comes tumbling down…

FIVE REASONS TO BE EXCITED:

• Danny Dyer proves himself once and for all to be a formidable and engrossing actor in this tense character study
• Dyer is the only person who’s ever present on-screen, with the film taking place entirely in a single location while other characters are exclusively heard as voices over the phone
• Director Brendan Muldowney elevates a tightly paced script by debut screenwriter Peter Howlett with sharp and inventive uses of the singular setting
• It exposes the cutthroat behind-the-scenes world of football that fans and sometimes even players rarely ever get to see
• More than anything, though, it’s a brilliant acting showcase for Dyer who may finally be about to build a reputation for himself as one of our finest performers

One Last Deal is showing in cinemas from Friday 13 March 2026

CAST (ENGLISH VERSION): Erin Yvette, Chris Hackney, David Kaye, Jamieson K. Price, Fred Tatasciore, Jason Marnocha, Yuri Lowenthal, Ian Cardoni, Michael Yurchak, Michelle Wong, Juanita Jennings, Aaliyah Sun Huang, Aaron Encinas

CAST (JAPANESE VERSION): Mana Ashida, Masaki Okada, Koji Yakusho, Kazuhiro Yamaji, Tokio Emoto, Munetaka Aoki, Shota Sometani, Noa Shiroyama, Kayoko Shiraishi, Kōtarō Yoshida, Yuki Saito, Yutaka Matsushige, Masachika Ichimura

CREW: Mamoru Hosoda (director, writer), Yûichirô Saitô, Nozomu Takahashi and Toshimi Tanio (producers), Taisei Iwasaki (composer), Shigeru Nishiyama (editor)

PLOT: Whilst on a dangerous quest to avenge the death of her father, medieval princess Scarlet (Yvette/Ashida) finds herself in a strange realm between life and death, where she encounters Hijiri (Hackney/Okada), an idealistic young man from modern times who offers to help her as well as present the possibility of a life free from her rage…

FIVE REASONS TO BE EXCITED:

• Anime legend Mamoru Hosoda’s latest is a genre-bending, time-hopping epic that features some of his most imaginative work to date
• While aspects of it are heavily inspired by the timeless Shakespeare play Hamlet, the plot takes some radical turns that incorporate numerous touches of fantasy, sci-fi and even romance
• Hosoda incorporates a cutting-edge animation technique that blends traditional 2D designs with 3D backdrops to create a more detailed aesthetic
• The entire production took over four years, far longer than Hosoda’s previous films including the Oscar-nominated Mirai and the sci-fi tale Belle
• With its blend of classic and modern storytelling, this is an animated extravaganza that reestablishes Hosoda as a leading force in animation

Scarlet is showing in cinemas from Friday 6 February 2026

CAST: Suzu Hirose, Fumi Nikaido, Yō Yoshida, Camilla Aiko, Kouhei Matsushita, Tomokazu Miura

CREW: Kei Ishikawa (director, writer, editor), Miyuki Fukuma, Marta Gmosinska, Hiroyuki Ishiguro, Elizabeth Karlsen, Mariusz Wlodarski and Stephen Woolley (producers), Pawel Mykietyn (composer), Piotr Niemyjski (cinematographer)

PLOT: In 1980s England, Japanese widower Etsuko (Yoshida) reflects on her life in 1950s Nagasaki, when her younger self (Hirose) made a decision that would change her life forever…

FIVE REASONS TO BE EXCITED:

• The debut novel of acclaimed novelist Kazuo Ishiguro is adapted into a breathtaking drama that transcends international barriers
• Filmmaker Kei Ishikawa takes the essence of Ishiguro’s novel, originally published in 1982, and transforms it into something faithful yet highly relevant in today’s world
• Ishikawa also retains the mystery at its heart, which reveals a devastating fact about our central character who’s portrayed across two separate timelines by Japanese actors Suzu Hirose and Yō Yoshida
• There is some moody cinematography to accompany the unsettling story, which creates an odd sense of beauty even as things get much darker as they go along
• It’s a gripping character-centric thriller that, much like the original novel, goes in some surprising directions that will leave you both shocked and intrigued

A Pale View of Hills is showing in cinemas from Friday 13 March 2026

CAST: Saga Garðarsdóttir, Sverrir Gudnason, Ída Mekkín Hlynsdóttir, Þorgils Hlynsson, Grímur Hlynsson, Kristinn Guðmundsson, Halldór Laxness Halldórsson, Anders Mossling, Ingvar Sigurdsson, Katla M. Þorgeirsdóttir

CREW: Hlynur Pálmason (director, writer, cinematographer), Rémi Burah, Katrin Pors and Anton Máni Svansson (producers), Harry Hunt (composer), Julius Krebs Damsbo (editor)

PLOT: Over the course of a year, a family’s life is shaped by the parents’ decision to separate…

FIVE REASONS TO BE EXCITED:

• Icelandic filmmaker Hlynur Pálmason, best known for films like Godland and A White, White Day, returns with an unusual family dramady
• The film explores the bittersweet fractures within a family unit where each person has their own set of emotional issues
• Expect some strange and even absurdist events throughout the course of the story, many of which end up helping the family in more ways than one
• Also look out for a scene-stealing turn by a dog named Panda, who was bestowed the coveted Palm Dog Award at last year’s Cannes Film Festival
• It’s an unconventional yet emotionally powerful comedy-drama that reminds us all of the love we share among our closest relatives

The Love That Remains is showing in cinemas from Friday 13 March 2026

CAST: Jackson Yee, Shu Qi, Mark Chao, Li Gengxi, Huang Jue, Chen Yongzhong, Zhang Zhijian, Chloe Maayan, Yan Nan, Guo Mucheng

CREW: Bi Gan (director, writer, editor), Charles Gillibert, Yang Lele and Zuolong Shan (producers), M83 (composers), Jingsong Dong (cinematographer)

PLOT: In a world where people have given up dreaming in order to extend their lifespan, a woman (Qi) is tasked with tracking down a monstrous “Deliriant” (Yee) who is disrupting reality by continuing to dream inside the world of movies, and she follows him across a series of dreams that represent different periods of cinema…

FIVE REASONS TO BE EXCITED:

• The latest film from Chinese filmmaker Bi Gan is, to put it mildly, unlike anything you’ve ever experienced before
• It is an extraordinarily ambitious epic that transports the viewer across various time periods and through a chronological history of filmmaking
• Through the protagonist’s dreams, with actor Jackson Yee playing different roles in each section, several classic formats of cinema are lovingly recreated, from the silent era to German expressionism
• Of the many striking techniques that the filmmaker uses, particularly dazzling is a 30-minute long take which took over a month to shoot, and even then, it could only be filmed at night with the crew having just one opportunity to film it per day
• Uncategorisable in the best possible way, this is a gorgeous tribute to cinematic storytelling as well as a bittersweet ode to the dreams we all have in our lives

Resurrection is showing in cinemas from Friday 13 March 2026

CAST: Eisa Schlott, Max Riemelt, Alma Hasun, Emma Falck, Olga von Luckwald, Thea Rasche, Berit Vander, Kriemhild Hamann, Nicolò Pasetti

CREW: Silvio Soldini (director, writer), Giulia Calenda, Cristina Comencini, Doriana Leondeff, Ilaria Macchia and Lucio Ricca (writers), Lionello Cerri, Stefan Jäger, Cristiana Mainardi, Katrin Renz and Joseph Rouschop (producers), Renato Berta (cinematographer), Carlotta Cristiani (editor)

PLOT: In 1943 Europe, Rosa Sauer (Schlott) is taken to the secluded Nazi headquarters and placed with a group of fellow young women, who are assigned to taste the meals of Adolf Hitler to check if they are not poisoned…

FIVE REASONS TO BE EXCITED:

• The inhumanity of the Nazis is once again on full display in a chilling historical thriller that takes an unusual perspective
• Based on Rosella Postorino’s novel At the Wolf’s Table, it is the first period piece of prolific Italian filmmaker Silvio Soldini, who also films the entire movie in the German language
• The film takes heavy inspiration from the very-real historical fact that a paranoid Hitler assigned a group of women to flirt with death every single time they sat down to eat one of his meals
• Soldini creates a claustrophobic atmosphere as the group faces hostility at every turn, made more unbearable by the intentionally dour cinematography
• There’s also an unexpected theme of solidarity as the unfortunate women in these positions form close and personal bonds with one another to help each other get through some of humanity’s worst moments

The Tasters is showing in cinemas from Friday 13 March 2026

CAST: Various

CREW: Felipe Bustos Sierra (director, producer), Ciara Barry (producer), Barry Burns (composer), Kirstin McMahon (cinematographer), Colin Monie (editor)

PLOT: In May 2021, hundreds of residents in a Glasgow neighbourhood race to aid two local men who have been detained by immigration officers, igniting a grassroots movement…

FIVE REASONS TO BE EXCITED:

• An astonishing display of civil resistance is replayed over the course of a striking new documentary that reinforces the power that the people possess
• You’ll be inspired by the countless people who drop whatever it is they may be doing in order to fight back against an unjust act against one of their own
• You may spot among the many protestors a few familiar faces, including actor Kate Dickie and national treasure Emma Thompson
• It was awarded the Special Jury Prize for Civil Resistance in the World Cinema Documentary strand at this year’s Sundance Film Festival
• The communal vibes will surely be felt across the country as audiences are reminded of what we are all capable of when we come together to let our voices be heard

Everybody to Kenmure Street is showing in cinemas from Friday 13 March 2026

CAST: Richard Farnsworth, Sissy Spacek, Harry Dean Stanton, Everett McGill, John Farley, Kevin Farley, Jane Galloway Heitz, Joseph Carpenter, Donald Weigert, Ed Grennan, Jack Walsh, Dan Flannery, Anastasia Webb, Barbara Robertson, James Cada, Sally Wingert, Wiley Harker, John Lordan, Russ Reed

CREW: David Lynch (director), Mary Sweeney (writer, producer, editor), John Roach (writer), Neal Edelstein (producer), Angelo Badalamenti (composer), Freddie Francis (cinematographer)

PLOT: After learning that his estranged brother Lyle (Stanton) has suffered a stroke, 73-year-old Alvin Straight (Farnsworth) sets out on his lawn mower for a 240-mile journey across the American Midwest to see him…

FIVE REASONS TO BE EXCITED:

• Perhaps the most normal film of the late David Lynch’s career – and that’s saying a lot! – is riding back into cinemas with an all-new 4K restoration
• It marked an uncharacteristic change of tone for the surrealist filmmaker, who adopted a much more grounded approach to recreating the extraordinary true story of Alvin Straight and his eccentric journey
• Richard Farnsworth earned an Oscar nomination for his steadfast performance as Straight, made all the more impressive knowing that the actor was fighting cancer all throughout production (he passed away just under a year after its release)
• Lynch shot the film in chronological order, at numerous locations occupied by the real Straight (including his actual house), and with some of his neighbours playing versions of themselves
• Though not as widely remembered as some of Lynch’s other films, this is a tender and heartwarming ode to Americana that deserves to be seen as one of his very best

The Straight Story is showing in cinemas from Friday 13 March 2025

CAST: Burt Lancaster, Peter O’Toole, Simon Ward, Nigel Davenport, Michael Jayston, Peter Vaughan, James Faulkner, Denholm Elliott, John Mills, Dai Bradley, Christopher Cazenove, Ronald Pickup, Bob Hoskins, Ronald Lacey, Simon Sabela, Ken Gampu, Abe Temba, Gilbert Tiabane, Muntu Ndebele, Paul Copley, Donald Pickering, Nicholas Clay, Phil Daniels, Ian Yule, Peter J. Elliott, Brian O’Shaughnessy, Freddie Jones, Anna Calder-Marshall, Chris Chittell, Patrick Mynhardt, Jan Bruyns, Sydney Chama, Kenneth Baker, Claire Marshall, Vivienne Drummond, Don Leonard

CREW: Douglas Hickox (director), Cy Endfield and Anthony Storey (writers), Nate Kohn (producer), Elmer Bernstein (composer), Ousama Rawi (cinematographer), Malcolm Cooke (editor)

PLOT: In 1879 South Africa, British colonists along with arrogant army commander Lord Chelmsford (O’Toole) plot to annex the Zulu Empire and eliminate its people, igniting a war that sees both armies fight on a hill named Isandlwana…

FIVE REASONS TO BE EXCITED:

• The historical epic that charted a significant event during the Anglo-Zulu War of 1879 is given an all-new 4K restoration for new audiences to discover
• It was the final feature made by director Douglas Hickox, who had previously made such films as Entertaining Mr Sloane, Theatre of Blood and Sky Riders
• The ensemble cast is made up of a real who’s-who of classic movie star talent, including Burt Lancaster, Peter O’Toole, James Faulkner and Bob Hoskins
• Sadly, the film underperformed critically and financially upon its release, which was a blow to the filmmakers who were engulfed in several legal issues afterwards concerning the finances of the over-budget production
• It’s more than due for a modern-day reassessment, however, so a big-screen re-release such as this is perfect to get that ball rolling!

Zulu Dawn is showing in cinemas from Friday 13 March 2026
