Top Selection

The Substance Film

Director Coralie Fargeat's daring critique examines the demanding standards for women's appearance along with the dreaded aspects of advancing years. The veteran actress delivers a brilliant performance playing Elisabeth, an aging celebrity demoted to hosting an aerobics show on the small screen. Edged out by her slimy boss Harvey, played by Dennis Quaid, she seeks out a mysterious and gruesome treatment titled the Substance. This generates a younger clone called Sue, resulting in a steadily more toxic connection among both women. October 17th, the streaming service Paramount+


The Woman in Cabin 10 Film

This classic whodunit story includes Knightley as Laura, a skilled journalist who opts for a break from covering global conflict to join an opulent ship alongside a gravely sick Scandinavian billionaire and donor, her partner, as well as other filthy rich passengers. But after an enigmatic female disappears from the ship overnight and all passengers insists she wasn't real, her journalistic curiosity take over. Streaming currently, the Netflix platform


Presence Film

Steven Soderbergh pushes his film-making abilities in this clever paranormal narrative shot entirely from the viewpoint of a ghost. As a family with Lucy Liu as Rebekah plus Callina Liang as Chloe moves into their new suburban house, the camera – as the unseen entity – follows them around. Chloe seems sensing the supernatural presence, and it looks like defensive toward her. However, the motive remains? The premise is enjoyable that remains concise, with a twist that could catch you off guard. October 11th, afternoon and evening times, Sky Cinema Premiere


Nicolas Cage's Meta Comedy

Nicolas Cage fully commits to his eccentric image via this meta comedy caper. He portrays a narcissistic celebrity called Nicolas Cage who takes on a million-dollar gig to visit a celebration on the Spanish island for the rich Javi, played by Pedro Pascal. Recruited by the CIA to investigate the alleged criminal, the actor's unconventional method proves useful. This Saturday, evening, Channel 4


This Creepy Thriller

The director's contained scarefest remains effective despite the lack of a continuation. Set in 1978 Denver, multiple kidnappings has rendered the local kids on edge. Once Finney is kidnapped by the kidnapper and held captive in a basement, he fears a fatal end. However, the non-functional line mounted nearby continues to ring, with spooky callers offering help, and the prophetic visions of his sister Gwen may be his salvation. A genuinely scary movie. This Saturday, 10.50pm, Film4


The Tammy Faye Biopic

In the conflict between faith and wealth, it's a knockout win for Mammon in Showalter's wonderfully garish true story about the fallen televangelist and her felon spouse. The actor acts as the greedy Jim, who proclaims initially, “God does not want us to be poor,”. The couple commence monetising the nation's spiritual convictions. It's an extravaganza of bad interior design, overdone appearance and hypocrisy, however the lead actress manages to show the character in a likable light. October 14th, early morning, Film4


Black Bag

This period's another release by the same director presents a intelligence thriller as tight as the polo necks used by the actor's British agent. His assignment is with uncovering a traitor within their ranks out of five possibilities – one of whom is his spouse. Both actors are masters of calm composure, resulting in an engaging psychological game of deception or honesty develops. The supporting cast take part the smart espionage amusement.
