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 S.O.S. Titanic (1979) 3/5 EDIT “‘…a dialogue-heavy, character driven alternative to Cameron’s thrill-ride interpretation…’” – film-authority.com Apr 4, 2026 Full Review Galaxy Quest (1999) 90% 4/5 EDIT “‘…the concept is so well developed that it’s a crime not to mine this particular sci-fi real estate any further…’” – film-authority.com Apr 4, 2026 Full Review Reign of Fire (2002) 42% 4/5 EDIT “‘…bags of action, great physical effects, and an original concept…’” – film-authority.com Apr 4, 2026 Full Review The Great Outdoors (1988) 43% 3/5 EDIT “‘…an agreeable lazy watch, even just for the impromptu dance-party at the end…’” – film-authority.com Apr 4, 2026 Full Review Love Story (1970) 65% 3/5 EDIT “'...seems rather quaint and naive, but the depiction of indolent youth in battle array against crabby ancients still has an appeal today, when romantic love seems to be in shorter supply than ever….’” – film-authority.com Apr 4, 2026 Full Review Heads or Tails? (2025) 87% 4/5 EDIT “‘…Heads or Tails? is an entertaining and richly humorous magic-realism Western that’s a firm recommendation for fans of thegenre, with John C Reilly the happy centre and the big draw in this wild, wild west show….’” – film-authority.com Apr 3, 2026 Full Review They Will Kill You (2026) 63% 2/5 EDIT “‘…They Will Kill You is a stale, derivative, confused film that taxes patience; it’s a sub-sub-Suspiria knock-off and barely has an original bone in its body….’ ” – film-authority.com Apr 2, 2026 Full Review The Super Mario Galaxy Movie (2026) 42% 2/5 EDIT “…there’s little new about The Super Mario Galaxy movie; it’s just the same again but not as good….aside from the overall quest format, much of the frenetic action borders on incomprehensibility for anyone unfamiliar with the lore…” – film-authority.com Mar 31, 2026 Full Review GOAT (2026) 85% 3/5 EDIT “‘…young minds should enjoy Will Harris’ traditional transformation from zero to hero. Even if they just go with the brash energy, GOAT has enough boom shakalaka energy to keep kids quiet for 90 mins…’” – film-authority.com Mar 31, 2026 Full Review The Dead (1987) 94% 5/5 EDIT “‘…one of the greatest works of art in cinema history, a pitch perfect take on one of literature’s greatest writers by one of cinema’s best directors…a beautiful dream of a film crammed with love, personality and sadness…’” – film-authority.com Mar 30, 2026 Full Review Under Siege 2 (1995) 34% 1/5 EDIT “…ending with a song of Seagal’s own composition, Under Siege 2 is what happens when you give numbskull talent its head; a vain, cheap looking, poorly fashioned valentine from Steven Seagal to Steven Seagal…” – film-authority.com Mar 29, 2026 Full Review Midwinter Break (2026) 63% 4/5 EDIT “…beautifully acted and artfully presented in a spare, practical manner that’s rare in 2026, this a bittersweet story and an astringent, careful character study of two people whose intuitive bond or intimate connection has loosened…” – film-authority.com Mar 27, 2026 Full Review Fear in the Night (1972) 4/5 EDIT “…an underrated Hammer classic…a prescient sense in which Fear in the Night is asking the right questions of a Old English/ Cold Comfort Farm patriarchal set-up that leaves room for plenty of criminality…” – film-authority.com Mar 26, 2026 Full Review Ready or Not 2: Here I Come (2026) 74% 3/5 EDIT “…a decent, entertaining-enough splattery sequel, but Ready or Not 2; Here I Come feels like treading water before a third and presumably final instalment finally answers any actual fan questions…” – film-authority.com Mar 25, 2026 Full Review Louis Theroux: Inside The Manosphere (2026) 78% 4/5 EDIT “…Louis Theroux is a likable chap, and putting him alongside racist, misogynist dimwits extreme enough to enjoy a spotlight on t’internet offers plenty of serious and comic potential….” – film-authority.com Mar 23, 2026 Full Review
