Kiss of the Spider Woman (2025) 76% 5/5 EDIT “‘…the interplay between the two men in jail is persuasively caught, but it’s the pastiche movie sequences with take the breath away, with Jennifer Lopez simply sensational in two roles that give her song and dance skills an absolute workout…’” – film-authority.com Apr 19, 2026 Full Review Lee Cronin's The Mummy (2026) 45% 3/5 EDIT “…The Mummy feels like it’s a stealth sequel set in the usual Evil Dead universe; this is very hard R, but should appeal to those who like their possession stories with buckets of blood, gore and …black ooze. Just don’t go looking for Brendan Fraser…” – film-authority.com Apr 18, 2026 Full Review Balls Up (2026) 28% 2/5 EDIT “...a raunchy comedy about bros, football, cocaine, gay panic, and whatever the Amazon algorithm suggested might grab the attention of young men…doesn’t deliver the kind of laugh rate its scattershot aim requires…” – film-authority.com Apr 17, 2026 Full Review John Carpenter's Escape From L.A. (1996) 57% 3/5 EDIT “…if it’s not as good as the original, Escape from LA still greases the wheels enough to keep us sweet for a return to Plissken’s way of doing things; not buying anyone’s Kool Aid, thinking for himself, screwing over authority every single chance he gets…” – film-authority.com Apr 16, 2026 Full Review Glenrothan (2025) 17% 3/5 EDIT “‘…Glenrothan is a quaint, old fashioned and agreeably lightweight directorial debut for Brian Cox that will go down best with those, at home or abroad, who are lucky enough to have a little Scottish blood in their veins….’” – film-authority.com Apr 16, 2026 Full Review Escape From New York (1981) 85% 4/5 EDIT “‘…John Carpenter’s still rocking 1981 action movie did an accurate job predicting a dystopian future…successfully borrows from The Omega Man and Planet of the Apes by positioning a New York where civilisation is just a memory…’” – film-authority.com Apr 15, 2026 Full Review Deliverance (1972) 90% 4/5 EDIT “‘…as a study of American machismo, John Boorman’s film still rings all the right alarm bells about flawed ideals of male dominance…’” – film-authority.com Apr 14, 2026 Full Review Flip Side of Dominick Hide (1980) 4/5 EDIT “...a Play for Today that’s like a Dr Who On Earth adventure if Richard Curtis was hired to give it a 1980 make-over. Yes, it’s dated, but that dated quality also gives it a unique charm; they really don’t make anything like this these days.” – film-authority.com Apr 13, 2026 Full Review Here We Go Round the Mulberry Bush (1968) 3/5 EDIT “‘…a piece of British cinematic history…this isn’t quite a louche British comedy but a proper, heartfelt coming of age story, closer to The Graduate than Porky’s….’” – film-authority.com Apr 13, 2026 Full Review The Terror (1963) 50% 3/5 EDIT “...there’s a high curiosity value of watching such a motely crew of actors; it might come up short of horror, but The Haunting is a strange document of old and Hollywood collectively bending over to make a buck.” – film-authority.com Apr 12, 2026 Full Review iHuman (2019) 4/5 EDIT “‘…a more-than-worthwhile watch for anyone with concerns about how technology may affect our current predicament…’ ” – film-authority.com Apr 12, 2026 Full Review Outcome (2026) 28% 4/5 EDIT “'...Outcome is an interestingly positioned and timely look at how a blackmail attempt might cause some white-male soul-searching...a vicious black comedy which tells an uncomfortable and inconvenient truth about Hollywood and America...'” – film-authority.com Apr 12, 2026 Full Review The Drama (2026) 77% 4/5 EDIT “…does unearth a genuinely romantic idea at its core, that it’s only really about what happens between two people and nobody else really matters...a rare serious Hollywood film that dares to ask questions about how we judge each other.” – film-authority.com Apr 11, 2026 Full Review Blood From the Mummy's Tomb (1971) 4/5 EDIT “‘…a good old fashioned cautionary tale of supernatural goings-on…essential viewing for Hammer fans…ambition makes this something different from the norm...'” – film-authority.com Apr 10, 2026 Full Review undertone (2025) 73% 4/5 EDIT “‘…well acted by Nira Kiri and performing a certain alchemy by generating scares from almost nothing, Undertone is a haunting little film that exploits its novelty value in a dark and dangerous way….’” – film-authority.com Apr 9, 2026 Full Review The Hitcher (1986) 63% 4/5 EDIT “‘…a classic 80’s action-driven B movie that’s utterly remorseless in chasing down thrills….while the initial reaction in cinemas was muted, The Hitcher went on to be a cult film and no wonder; it’s the gnarliest thing out there…’” – film-authority.com Apr 8, 2026 Full Review The Terrorists (1974) 57% 3/5 EDIT “‘…well shot by Sven Nykvist, with impressive pyhsical work in and around the stationary plane, Ransom isn’t actually awful to watch; there’s a mystery, a tense situation, and the mystery is solved, even if the solution is less than satisfying…’” – film-authority.com Apr 7, 2026 Full Review An Unmarried Woman (1978) 90% 5/5 EDIT “‘…complete with an uplifting Bill Conti score, An Unmarried Woman is a Rocky story for women…a ground-breaking film about a woman’s search to find herself…’ ” – film-authority.com Apr 6, 2026 Full Review Dead of Winter (2025) 76% 3/5 EDIT “‘…what’s worthwhile here is the two central performances; Emma Thompson’s sub-Fargo accent is fairly risible, but she and Judy Greer at least give as good as they get, engaging in a snarling, bloody stand-off in the snow…’” – film-authority.com Apr 5, 2026 Full Review The Thing (2011) 34% 3/5 EDIT “The Thing 2011 has a strong, moody atmosphere, some wild jump scares, some decent tension, and does feel like a loving tribute to the original film. It’s one case where it would be interesting to see a director’s cut...” – film-authority.com Apr 5, 2026 Full Review Scrooged (1988) 72% 3/5 EDIT “‘…Scrooged isn’t hard-edged enough for adults, and yet seems too worldly for kids…’” – film-authority.com Apr 4, 2026 Full Review Blame It on Rio (1983) 11% 3/5 EDIT “‘…a painfully male film, given to ogling women without any shame, and seeing great providence in behaviour that might be more simply described as lecherous…’” – film-authority.com Apr 4, 2026 Full Review Romeo Must Die (2000) 34% 3/5 EDIT “‘…an unlikely Shakespeare/ martial arts hybrid…’” – film-authority.com Apr 4, 2026 Full Review Scotland, Pa. (2001) 59% 4/5 EDIT “‘…comes up trumps with a clever, funny version of the great tragedy…’” – film-authority.com Apr 4, 2026 Full Review The Kremlin Letter (1970) 4/5 EDIT “‘…daring look at spy-craft, which predates the lifted-from-the-headlines approach of Jason Bourne…’” – film-authority.com Apr 4, 2026 Full Review
