Robert Pattinson is quite simply in a league of his own right now. What an actor.
POSSIBLE LOVE.
Lee Chang-dong’s exquisitely-crafted film explores social & economic inequality with patient stamina. It allows it’s characters time to live, breathe & reflect offering audiences gifts aplenty in the process. Jeon Do-yeon’s magnificent performance is awards-worthy!

Two days later and I’m still FLOORED by the phenomenal performances of Kate O’Flynn, Alice Bailey Johnson, Marion Bailey and Paul Jesson in Mike Leigh’s triumphant TENDER LOVING CARE. An easy addition to my ‘Best of 2026’ list!

TENDER LOVING CARE.
Mike Leigh’s OUTSTANDING new film is warm, intimate, loving & an impeccable tribute to his entire filmography’s naturalistic approach. Always finding gold in the seemingly ‘everyday’ Leigh’s latest features a quartet of PERFECT performances. Loved this movie!

WICKER.
This fantasy-romance is often funny & greatly elevated by a terrific cast that brings this eccentric world to life. In particular, Olivia Colman & Elizabeth Debicki shine bright here. Its reliance on quirky charm doesn’t always work for me but I do admire its peculiarity.

GENTLE MONSTER.
Marie Kreutzer’s film might be too narratively elusive for it to fully resonate. That said, with Léa Seydoux’s quietly powerful performance at its core it manages to wring some hopefulness out of the disturbing subject matter.

PRESSURE.
Andrew Scott’s toweringly brilliant performance helps to catapult this D-Day film into the higher ranks of war movies. The meteorological viewpoint is intelligent & elegantly executed with understated filmmaking allowing the true-life story to unravel without pretence.

WILD HORSE NINE.
Martin McDonagh delivers another sinfully funny black comedy with biting political commentary & a sensational backdrop of 70’s Easter Island. Propped up even further by outstanding work from Sam Rockwell & an all-timer John Malkovich, this is one of 2026’s best!

PRIMETIME.
Lance Oppenheim takes no prisoners, metaphorically, in this darkly funny thriller about the grim behind the scenes humans of “To Catch a Predator” & the much grimier men being caught. Robert Pattinson is electric, Merritt Wever shines & Skyler Gisondo STEALS THE SHOW.

THE INCOMER.
Hilarious & full of charming whimsy, this folksy comedy is brimming with heart & humour to spare. Domhnall Gleeson, Gayle Rankin & Grant O’Rourke are a masterful trio that deliver captivating performances with playfulness & warmth. A superb ode to Scottish drollery.

A TALENT FOR MURDER.
A well-made film with good performances and some visual flair that is undone by a meandering, uninspired plot and unappealing characters.
