Zootopia 2 (2025) 91% 4/5 EDIT “It involves compromises and hard truths; as kids' films go, it's pretty mature. ” – Daily Mail (UK) Dec 2, 2025 Full Review TRON: Ares (2025) 53% 4/5 EDIT “There are motivations. There are stakes. There is character development. It all makes sense, mostly.” – Daily Mail (UK) Oct 14, 2025 Full Review Superman (2025) 83% 3/5 EDIT “Irreverence is fun, but sometimes, with this character, a little good ol’ fashioned awe wouldn’t go amiss. All of which adds up to a movie that’s just fine, really. A mix of good and bad, which is its own sort of achievement. ” – Daily Mail (UK) Jul 9, 2025 Full Review Back to Black (2024) 35% 1/5 EDIT “All of the usual sins of biopics are committed here – only more so. We rush so quickly from Winehouse's becardiganed early years to her mid-noughties pomp to her alcohol-induced demise that we barely get to know her and those around her.” – Daily Mail (UK) Apr 9, 2024 Full Review Top Gun: Maverick (2022) 96% 5/5 EDIT “It's loud, sometimes silly, often crazy. But in the end, the moral of the heart-stopping story is clear: Tom Cruise is a rootin'-tootin' hero.” – Daily Mail (UK) May 13, 2022 Full Review The Quiet Girl (2022) 97% 5/5 EDIT “Through its careful camerawork and sparing script, we come to know the everyday cruelties that people can impose on each other — and the immeasurable kindnesses, too.” – Daily Mail (UK) May 13, 2022 Full Review Father Stu (2022) 42% 2/5 EDIT “In this world of second chances, maybe extend Father Stu just the one — if only to know something of the man who inspired it.” – Daily Mail (UK) May 13, 2022 Full Review Everything Everywhere All at Once (2022) 93% 4/5 EDIT “More Yeoh is more Yeoh. There may be some awful universe where she isn't one of the most capable, likeable frontwomen in film, but, thankfully, it's not this one.” – Daily Mail (UK) May 13, 2022 Full Review Morbius (2022) 15% 3/5 EDIT “I'd gone into Morbius expecting a throwaway comicbook movie, but the director Daniel Espinosa and writers Matt Sazama and Burk Sharpless seem to have higher aspirations.” – Daily Mail (UK) Apr 7, 2022 Full Review Venom: Let There Be Carnage (2021) 58% 2/5 EDIT “It's time for Venom to hang up his... appendages?” – Daily Mail (UK) Oct 15, 2021 Full Review 20,000 Days on Earth (2014) 97% EDIT “Much like the man himself, it is gloriously oblique.” – The Spectator Sep 18, 2014 Full Review Pride (2014) 93% EDIT “Even if you cannot abide Pride's simplistic politics, or its synth-pop soundtrack, it's a stirring enough conclusion. You'll laugh, as they say. You'll cry.” – The Spectator Sep 11, 2014 Full Review Lucy (2014) 67% EDIT “To its credit, Lucy doesn't shy away from making its main character inhuman.” – The Spectator Aug 21, 2014 Full Review Maleficent (2014) 54% EDIT “Admittedly, Jolie helps pull you there with an engaging performance, as does Elle Fanning as the sidelined Sleeping Beauty. But none of it is enough to redeem Maleficent's final variation on the source material.” – The Spectator May 29, 2014 Full Review The Amazing Spider-Man 2 (2014) 51% EDIT “We're pushed by a heavy hand to the film's conclusion. What happens? ... There's slow motion. Copious computer effects. Even more slow motion. Cogs and distractions. And then... well, the comics did this simpler and better in the Seventies.” – The Spectator Apr 17, 2014 Full Review The Monuments Men (2014) 30% EDIT “It's almost as though Clooney watched every second world war movie on Netflix, and tried to incorporate them all into his own.” – The Spectator Feb 13, 2014 Full Review
