Rating: Not Rated Stars: Harry Melling, Alexander Skarsgård, Lesley Sharp, Douglas Hodge, Jake Shears Writer: Harry Lighton, based on the novel BOX HILL by Adam Mars-Jones Director: Harry Lighton Distributor: A24 Release Date: February 6, 2026 The word “pillion” is defined as “a seat for a passenger behind a motorcyclist.” PILLION’s protagonist Colin (Harry Melling) spends a fair amount of time riding pillion behind motorcyclist Ray (Alexander Skarsgård). There are a lot of things Colin and Ray do together frequently, but “pillion” is probably one of the marquee-friendlier ones. Director/screenwriter Harry Lighton has adapted and updated Adam Mars-Jones’s 2020 novel […]Read On »

We’re in an English seaside factory town that features some wonderful two-story houses. Inside one of these, an old woman – we’ll learn this is Gillian Rafter (Maggie Steed) hears a […]Read On »

Rating: R Stars: Luke Evans, Billie Boullet, Milla Jovovich, Mila Harris, Kevin Glynn, Meadow Williams Writer: Joshua Rollins Director: Brad Anderson Distributor: Aura Entertainment Release Date: January 30, 2026 In the film WORLDBREAKER, the title term refers generally to anything that causes a species (going back to the dinosaurs) or civilization to collapse. As we’re told in voiceover, the world has broken many times and the breakers are always different. Images of bulletin boards with news articles on evolution and climate devastation cut to a young teen, Willa (Billie Boullet), standing by a small boat on a rocky shore, drawing […]Read On »

Rating: R Stars: Ralph Fiennes, Jack O’Connell, Alfie Williams, Chi-Louis Parry, Erin Kellyman, Louis Ashbourne Serkis, Emma Laird Writer: Alex Garland Director: Nia DaCosta Distributor: Sony/Columbia Release Date: January 16, 2026 28 YEARS LATER: THE BONE TEMPLE picks up almost immediately after the end of last year’s 28 YEARS LATER. While it’s not absolutely necessary – the essentials become clear soon enough – it’s probably handy to be acquainted with the earlier film, which introduced most of BONE TEMPLE’s protagonists. Both movies are follow-ups to 2003’s 28 DAYS LATER and its 2007 sequel 28 WEEKS LATER. Alex Garland, who wrote […]Read On »

Rating: Not Rated Stars: Italia Ricci, Scott Mechlowicz, Zachary Golinger, Terence Rosemore, Craig Kolkebeck, Ron Fallica, Jay DeVon Johnson, Fleming Moore, Justin Matthew Smith Writer: Will Canon Director: Will Canon Distributor: Quiver Distribution Release Date: January 16, 2026 THE CONFESSION turns out to be a riff on a Robert Browning book, but it handles the elements so loosely that characters have to keep referring to it for us to identify similarities. In the town of Elbe, Texas, 120 miles outside Dallas, Pastor Arthur Riley (Craig Kolkebeck) of the Mt. Calvary Church leaves a tape cassette message for his daughter, then […]Read On »

SINNERS movie poster | ©2025 Warner Bros.

THE TEN BEST MOVIES OF 2025   SINNERS – It starts out by telling us that some music is so extraordinary that it is magical, transcending space and time, and damn if this 1930s-era story of twin brothers, their juke joint, local racism and vampires doesn’t make us believe. Featuring an outstanding performance by Michael B. Jordan in a dual role and a star-making turn by young Michael Caton as the young bluesman whose tunes draw in the living and the undead. HAMNET – This adaptation of Maggie O’Farrell’s novel about William Shakespeare’s creation of HAMLET is an exploration of […]Read On »

Rating: R Stars: Daisy Ridley, Brenton Thwaites, Mark Coles Riley, Matt Whelan, Chloe Hurst, Kym Jackson Writer: Zak Hilditch Director: Zak Hilditch Distributor: Vertical Release Date: January 2, 2026 Technically, WE BURY THE DEAD is a zombie movie. That is, it has decomposed corpses that come back to life and sometimes make alarming movements. However, at the risk of being spoilerish but to make sure audience members know what they will and won’t be getting, it should be said WE BURY THE DEAD is not a zombie movie in the conventional sense, as it doesn’t much depict trying to survive […]Read On »
