Arcadian 2024
From Raising Arizona and Con Air to Kick-Ass and The Croods, Nicolas Cage is reliably entertaining in full-on dad mode. Arcadian proves that once again as he plays Paul, a lone father raising twin sons at the onset of an alien invasion in this tight, action-horror shot in Dublin’s enchanting countryside.

Unicorns 2023
Unicorns is the latest British film to grapple with the romantic prospects of a drag performer of colour and the white boy she longs for.
Written by James Krishna Floyd and co-directed with his partner and long-time collaborator Sally El Hosaini, it arrives not long after the release of Sam H Freeman and Ng Choon Ping’s harrowing gender-fluid thriller Femme. Yet where brutal violence is the catalyst for Femme's central romance, Unicorns offers a gentler love story to become smitten with; albeit with moments of ruthless conflict.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem 2023
This film makes me hope they never do TMNT in live-action again.
