The Batman is the perfect film for fans of both comic books and the noir genre, bringing Batman back to his roots in a well-realised Gotham, complete with familiar yet unique cast of characters.

After what feels like a really long time, The Batman is finally releasing in cinemas. The movie is quite special to me personally in many regards, and here’s why.

Gangubai Kathiawadi is exactly what you’d expect — even with a “smaller” film on scale, Bhansali shall deliver on everything as grand as possible, with Alia Bhatt’s powerful performance leading the way.

Uncharted is a fun movie that only has superficial connections to the great games it takes inspiration from.

Don’t Look Up uses comedy to subtly deliver commentary on the political and sociological nature of modern America’s culture when facing a potential threat to humanity.

The Matrix: Resurrections has a few cool ideas about the role digital spaces play in our modern lives, but other than that its unhealthy obsession with repeated callbacks and references to the original films stop it from telling an interesting story.

Spider-Man: No Way Home is easily the MCU’s strongest film featuring the wall-crawler, with enough throwbacks, surprises and an emotional narrative to satisfy any comic-book fan.

Featuring an excellent cast with stellar direction, West Side Story may be seen as a fantastic reimagining of a classic story, but only if you’re already interested in what it has to say about America.

Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings keeps the MCU fresh and exciting with a likeable new hero and cast of characters, innovative action and most important of all - a beating heart.
