  • Bobby (2006)
    Review preview for Bobby

    Estevez uses Bobby’s words too much, but you can’t blame him, because Kennedy’s compassion and sympathy for the underprivileged shines.

    Angus Wolfe Murray · 3.5 out of 5
    Who was in the hotel on the night that Robert Kennedy was shot?
  • Borg vs McEnroe (2017)
    Review preview for Borg vs McEnroe

    Why make a movie about this match? Why now? Is it the danger factor with Superbrat or nostalgia for IceBorg or the ingenuity of the stunt guys to make the players look genuine?

    Angus Wolfe Murray · 3.5 out of 5
    The story of the tennis rivalry between the Swede Björn Borg and the American John McEnroe.
  • Constantine (2005)
    Review preview for Constantine

    Constantine is best enjoyed by ignoring the Milton-centric mythology and surrendering to the movie's lush atmosphere and wicked performances.

    The Exile · 4 out of 5

    Anton Bitel · 3 out of 5
    A man haunted by a summer from his past, returns to his old stamping ground to confront old ghosts.
  • Honey Boy (2019)
    Review preview for Honey Boy

    This is a highly personal work that opens the door on some dark truths of Hollywood and fame, but it also doesn’t quite know what to do to elevate itself beyond a peep show into human misery.

  • Megalopolis (2024)
    Review preview for Megalopolis

    It is described simply as “A Fable”, but there is nothing simple about this over-ambitious allegorical sprawl.

    Richard Mowe · 3 out of 5
    Power play and corruption unfold in a futuristic city.
  • Nymphomaniac (2013)
    Review preview for Nymphomaniac

    It's a film that goes out of its way to provoke and disappoint, but to those who get its jokes and can cope with the rest, it's a delight.

    Jennie Kermode · 4 out of 5
    A self-diagnosed nymphomaniac recounts her experiences.
  • Pieces Of A Woman (2020)
    Review preview for Pieces Of A Woman

    Part of the problem is that the characters are either opaque or unpleasant – and all lack rounded definition.

  • Transformers: Revenge Of The Fallen (2009)
    Review preview for Transformers: Revenge Of The Fallen

    It is bigger and longer than the original – but certainly no better, and this time round lacking even a novelty factor.

    Anton Bitel · 2 out of 5
    Sam Witwicky has to save the earth from Decepticon (again).
  • Transformers: Dark Of The Moon (2011)
    Review preview for Transformers: Dark Of The Moon

    The comedy is not funny, the action is exhausting, and by the time its 156 minutes are over, you too will have been transformed into a dead-eyed machine that has lost the power or will to care.

    Anton Bitel · 2 out of 5
    The Decepticons and Autobots battle once again.
