Film Reviews

The actress makes a return to form in this hard-hitting film from Hungarian director Kornél Mundruczó about a middle-aged woman facing up to addiction – and her traumatic childhood.

Bill Evans was a boundary-breaking US pianist who contended with multiple personal tragedies, and a serious drug problem. This new drama about him will draw you to his hypnotic music.

Starring Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi, Emerald Fennell's new take on the classic romance is far from faithful to the original book – but it is "utterly absorbing" in its own right.

The third instalment in James Cameron's mega-hit blockbuster franchise is "197 minutes of screensaver graphics, clunky dialogue, baggy plotting and hippy-dippy new-age spirituality".

Timothée Chalamet is "captivating", alongside an "impeccable" Gwyneth Paltrow, in this "madcap" film about a young man who scams and steals his way to becoming a table-tennis champion.

The Shakespeare drama starring Paul Mescal and Jessie Buckley has a stellar cast but is "exploitative" and lacks subtlety.

The musical adaptation's second and final instalment isn't likely to win any sceptics over – but it's consistently enjoyable, and sees Ariana Grande, in particular, "really shine".
