    Save your grey matter for coordinating the movement of your hand to your mouth, or your jaw to the sticky cinema floor.

    Max Crawford · 3.5 out of 5
    Tony Stark and his team take on rogue AI Ultron.
  • Avengers: Endgame (2019)

  • Bad Times At The El Royale (2018)
    Review preview for Bad Times At The El Royale

    A thriller that, although it could have done with judicious editing at the beginning and end, nonetheless delivers laughs, shocks and, most importantly, that sense of satisfaction that only comes when puzzle pieces come together with a resounding click

    Amber Wilkinson · 4 out of 5

  • Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga (2024)
    Review preview for Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga

    You've seen it all before, but that's its strength. That cranked footage, those desperate eyes, the obscuring sand.

    Prequel about the young Furiosa, who is snatched by a biker gang.
  • In The Heart Of The Sea (2015)
    Review preview for In The Heart Of The Sea

    Class and experience divisions form the bulk of the interpersonal drama and it’s as predictable as expected, with the added tedium of Hemsworth apparently defaulting back to weirdly out of place Asgardian diction, bellowing like Thor at every little thing

    Luke Shaw · 2.5 out of 5
    Recounting of the tale that went on to inspire Moby Dick.

  • A Perfect Getaway (2009)
    Review preview for A Perfect Getaway

    This is a fun film, genuinely exciting, twisty like the mountain trails, with uncertain footing throughout.

    Andrew Robertson · 4 out of 5

  • Thor: The Dark World (2013)
    Review preview for Thor: The Dark World

    Thor: The Dark World is nimble of step in the comedy department but as heavy as a hammer to the chest when it comes to exposition.

    Amber Wilkinson · 3 out of 5
    Thor takes on the dark elves to save the life of his mortal love Jane.
  • Thor (2011)
    Review preview for Thor

    The ideas are so shamelessly out-there and imaginatively employed that it's hard not to get caught up in it all.

    David Graham · 3.5 out of 5
    An adaptation of the Marvel comic in which Thor is cast out of the realm of the gods and finds himself defending humans.
  • Thor: Love And Thunder (2022)
    Review preview for Thor: Love And Thunder

    A merchandising rather than mythologising opportunity..

    Andrew Robertson · 3.5 out of 5

    Imprisoned, Thor finds himself in a lethal gladiatorial contest against the Hulk, his former ally.
  • Transformers One (2024)

    It's fun. It's quite unabashedly so, which is something too many movies based on this sort of property are afraid of.

    Andrew Robertson · 4 out of 5
    The untold origin story of Optimus Prime and Megatron, better known as sworn enemies, but who once were friends, bonded like brothers, who changed the fate of Cybertron forever.
