Michael (2026) 39% EDIT “Perhaps it’s just as Jackson himself would have wanted — to remain a mystery.” – ABC News (Australia) May 9, 2026 Full Review The Drama (2026) 76% EDIT “This layered, thorny, often unnerving film is as psychologically intense as it is comedic. In other words, it's a perfect date movie.” – ABC News (Australia) May 9, 2026 Full Review Wuthering Heights (2026) 57% EDIT “Fennell can't get to the essence of a story that's always been more of a haunting than a romance, nor conjure up something sufficiently radical to make it her own.” – ABC News (Australia) May 9, 2026 Full Review If I Had Legs I'd Kick You (2025) 92% EDIT “Even at her most stretched, Byrne is never less than committed to this complex, contradictory study in the perils of parenthood.” – ABC News (Australia) May 9, 2026 Full Review Die My Love (2025) 75% EDIT “Lawrence gives a performance that refuses explanation – by her husband, by the institutions, by pretty much everyone around her. It's a firecracker.” – ABC News (Australia) May 9, 2026 Full Review Wicked: For Good (2025) 66% EDIT “The problem, at least on screen, is that so much of the narrative becomes emotionally repetitive, circling ideas that were front and centre in Wicked: Part One.” – ABC News (Australia) May 9, 2026 Full Review TRON: Ares (2025) 53% EDIT “Rote, unimaginative storytelling, proving just how tired this concept has become after four decades of imitation.” – ABC News (Australia) May 9, 2026 Full Review Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere (2025) 61% EDIT “Casual acquaintances just might emerge with a new-found love of the music.” – ABC News (Australia) May 9, 2026 Full Review Happy Gilmore 2 (2025) 61% EDIT “A breezy and intermittently funny comedy that sticks to the playbook of every decades-later sequel, sending its hero back to zero to lazily rehash the beats of its predecessor.” – ABC News (Australia) May 9, 2026 Full Review Superman (2025) 83% EDIT “Gunn’s cornball humanism is almost as awkward as the film’s Obama-era #hashtag jokes.” – ABC News (Australia) May 9, 2026 Full Review THX 1138 (1971) 72% EDIT “THX-1138’s future is thus both chillingly plausible and sensorially immersive, in no small part thanks to Lucas’ ingenious eye for design.” – sbs.com.au Feb 19, 2026 Full Review Bono: Stories of Surrender (2025) 75% EDIT “Haters will burn with renewed fire, but if you’ve ever had a soft spot for U2, it may just make you fall in love with them all over again.” – ABC News (Australia) Jun 20, 2025 Full Review Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning (2025) 80% EDIT “McQuarrie and Cruise seem to have forgotten the fact that nobody goes to a Mission: Impossible picture for the plot.” – ABC News (Australia) May 23, 2025 Full Review Hurry Up Tomorrow (2025) 14% EDIT “One of the ugliest self-portraits in the history of pop star movies, alternately self-loathing and self-pitying, solipsistic and grimly exhilarating. If you’re a scholar of pop stardom, it’s also essential.” – ABC News (Australia) May 21, 2025 Full Review The Penguin Lessons (2024) 78% EDIT “Coogan does nice work shading the moral ambiguities of his character, although the movie is ultimately resistant to exploring the thornier aspects of its political backdrop.” – ABC News (Australia) May 20, 2025 Full Review Small Things Like These (2024) 94% EDIT “As he did in Oppenheimer, Murphy suggests worlds of conflict beyond the word. In repose, his stillness says so much.” – ABC News (Australia) May 20, 2025 Full Review Oh Canada (2024) 66% EDIT “The film becomes a reckoning for a generation who set out to change the world with their art, their music, their movies — but for whom the end is fast approaching. What do they have to show for it?” – ABC News (Australia) Mar 27, 2025 Full Review Disney's Snow White (2025) 39% EDIT “As ever, the new version makes a great trailer for the original.” – ABC News (Australia) Mar 27, 2025 Full Review Flow (2024) 97% EDIT “It’s hard to remember the last time that Disney, DreamWorks or Pixar got anywhere near Flow’s sense of wonder or imagination.” – ABC News (Australia) Mar 27, 2025 Full Review Nickel Boys (2024) 92% EDIT “Its stylistic accomplishment is less in reanimating history than making it live and breathe in the present — to interrogate ideas about the gaze, and what we as an audience bring to the table. ” – ABC News (Australia) Mar 10, 2025 Full Review The Last Showgirl (2024) 83% EDIT “The Last Showgirl gets at something about Anderson to which we’ve never really been exposed — the actor, and the artist, behind the icon. ” – ABC News (Australia) Feb 21, 2025 Full Review Becoming Led Zeppelin (2025) 85% EDIT “Unlike so many fame-obsessed rock docs, there’s a dedicated focus on the music itself — as exclusively recounted by the people who made it.” – ABC News (Australia) Feb 11, 2025 Full Review Presence (2024) 87% EDIT “The movie is hardly diminished by its conventional narrative punch. Soderbergh and Koepp keep the movie tense and twisty right through to its disquieting final image.” – ABC News (Australia) Feb 10, 2025 Full Review Maria (2024) 75% EDIT “A soulful, sometimes spooky glance at a diva at the edge of oblivion, and a portrait as rich, melancholy and moving as its subject.” – ABC News (Australia) Jan 31, 2025 Full Review Companion (2025) 93% EDIT “Hancock might have leaned harder into his film’s underlying ideas, which are rich with potential. Still, the movie is entertaining, and more than a little mischievous.” – ABC News (Australia) Jan 29, 2025 Full Review
