It's been almost 25 years since Renée Zellweger turned the star of Helen Fielding's bestselling novel into one of the most undeniably endearing, endlessly lovable, and perpetually chaotic heroines of the rom-com genre. Two Oscars and a career of numerous ups and downs, Zellweger returns to her most beloved role in Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy, the fourth and purportedly final instalment in the long-running series. This latest chapter is both a poignant evolution for Bridget and a warm return to the humour and romantic misadventures that made the...

Steven Soderbergh’s Presence is, in many ways, a fascinating experiment. A haunted house story stripped down to its most minimalistic form, the film toys with perspective, atmosphere, and psychological unease rather than overt scares. The result is a film that is as intriguing as it is frustrating, a cerebral ghost story that doesn’t always land its punches but lingers in the mind nonetheless. Presence is undeniably unique, though whether that uniqueness is rewarding or alienating will depend on the viewer. The film follows the Payne family—Rebecca (Lucy Liu), her...

Stephen King adaptations come in all shapes and sizes. Some are sprawling prestige dramas (The Shawshank Redemption, The Green Mile), others lean into psychological terror (Misery, Gerald’s Game), and then there are the delightfully deranged oddities (Creepshow, Maximum Overdrive). Osgood Perkins’ The Monkey, based on King’s 1980 short story of the same name, falls squarely into that final category—a gleefully twisted, blood-soaked horror-comedy that embraces its B-movie roots while showcasing Perkins’ signature eerie, off-kilter style. It’s at once one of the funniest and most gruesome King adaptations in years,...

Every so often, a film emerges that feels like a jolt of electricity—equal parts unsettling, hilarious, and unexpected. A genre-blurring dark comedy/sci-fi thriller, Drew Hancock’s Companion, is one such film. It’s a story that traverses the absurd and the emotional with a uniquely audacious tone, delivering a movie that manages to thrill, shock, and amuse. With a stellar cast led by Sophie Thatcher and Jack Quaid, Companion stands out as a bold, inventive effort in modern genre cinema. A gleefully deranged genre mash-up that starts the year in style,...

There’s a certain wonder that comes with the Paddington films. In an era where reboots, sequels, and franchises often feel more like obligations than expressions of creative spirit, Paddington and Paddington 2 stand apart. It's no exaggeration to call them two of the best family films of recent times and that ultra-rare example where the sequel is actually better than its predecessor. Daring to craft a third film is a monumental task. In Paddington in Peru, the beloved titular bear is embarking on a new chapter, leaving the familiar...

Let's be honest; horror reimaginings rarely succeed. For every brilliant example like Dawn of the Dead, The Ring or It, you have genuine train wrecks like A Nightmare on Elm Street, Psycho, and The Wolfman. Thankfully, the man to take on delivering a new vision of F.W. Murnau’s iconic 1922 silent film, Nosferatu is Robert Eggers; a filmmaker known for his audacious exploration of the darker corners of human experience. The result is a beautiful, grotesque, and chilling cinematic nightmare that descends into terror and obsession. Eggers’ signature blend of...

When the internet rightfully sneered at the first trailer for Sonic the Hedgehog back in 2019, few could have predicted this would become a franchise that's earned over $700 million at the worldwide box office. But this is a franchise that actually listened to its fans; a genuine rarity in Hollywood. It's also a saga that's only gotten better with each film; an even bigger rarity in cinema. That proves to be even truer in Sonic the Hedgehog 3 aka the best Sonic movie to date. Sustaining the charm and...

For a studio so often criticised for its reliance on rehashing the past, it's rather wild to consider Disney has only released four animated sequels in its almost 90 years of existence. Sure, there was that period in the 90s and early 00s when every successful animated feature received a subpar straight-to-video follow-up. However, in terms of theatrically released animated films, we've only had The Rescuers Down Under, Fantasia 2000, Ralph Breaks the Internet, and Frozen II. It's also crazy to remember a follow-up to the 2016 smash hit Moana wasn't even...

It's no exaggeration to call Wicked one of the biggest movie musical events in recent history. Using the term "highly anticipated" to describe this film barely captures the fever pitch of excitement surrounding its release. After 20 years on the Broadway stage, getting a film adaptation off the ground has been a monumental effort. This is a much-delayed film production that's essentially been "in development" for more than a decade (at one stage, it was announced as coming in December 2019). But that's all in the past now....
