    Avengers: Endgame
    Not quite as good as Infinity War, but wears its three-hour running time with ease and rewards the fans. Part of the journey is the end, and this goes out with a bang that’ll make you whimper.

    Dumbo
    There are thrills and feels but this reimagination of the delightful animation doesn’t take flight often enough.

    Instant Family
    It’s no Parenthood. It’s tonally messy. But Instant Family’s made with excellent intentions and chunks of it work.
    • 57 Metascore

    Cold Pursuit
    Neeson’s knees hold up in an oddball thriller that’s more interested in smirks than smashing things to smithereens.

    The Old Man & the Gun
    So damn charming it makes your heart twinkle like Redford's eyes.

    Venom
    Fleischer made a better comedy-horror with Zombieland, but Venom’s a decent buddy actioner. You might even laugh your head off.

    Mandy
    “YOU RIPPED MY FAVOURITE SHIRT!” Cage loses it in a bloody, druggy, superbly crafted revenge thriller. Astonishing.

    Upgrade
    A retro science-fiction actioner with both brains and brawn – quite a lot of brawn, actually. Surely destined for cult status.

    BlacKkKlansman
    Furious, relevant, and funny as hell.

    Mission: Impossible – Fallout
    McQuarrie brings grace and grit, and Cruise brings it, period. This quick-witted, fleet-footed franchise shows no sign of flagging.

    First Reformed
    Paul Schrader’s best for 20 years. A stunning study of one man’s flaws and an apocalyptic vision of mankind’s fate.

    Incredibles 2
    Be sure to make family time for Bird’s flawed but dazzling sequel. “Superheroes suck,” says Violet. No, they most certainly don’t.

    Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom
    After a first half that suggests franchise fatigue is setting in, Fallen Kingdom zooms in for some scarily good set-pieces.

    Solo: A Star Wars Story
    Far better than we had any right to expect. Thrilling set-pieces, spine-tingling iconography and a Han/Chewie bromance to savour.

    On Chesil Beach
    A decent adaptation of McEwan’s excellent novella. Forget Fifty Shades – this is sex to make your cheeks blush.

    Wilde Salomé
    Like Pacino’s Shakespeare rumination Looking For Richard (1996), Wilde Salomé is passionate and absorbing, though the insertion of lengthy clips from the film might irk viewers who’ve just watched it.

    Blockers
    Not in the Bridesmaids league but a very funny female-centric comedy with big laughs and spot-on attitudes.
    • 48 Metascore

    Tomb Raider
    Vikander packs a punch but this Tomb Raider is a long way off the Holy Grail of the first three Indy movies.
    • 59 Metascore

    Mom and Dad
    An exploitation movie that, paradoxically, exhibits too much good taste. Still, expect “Saws all!” to become a 2018 catchphrase.

    Downsizing
    No small achievement. Alexander Payne re-confirms his position as one of US cinema’s premier filmmakers.
    • 50 Metascore

    Maze Runner: The Death Cure
    It’s hardly fresh, but the spectacle is decent and the relationship dynamics absorb just enough to fill the lengthy run time.
    • 88 Metascore

    Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri
    McDormand is an unstoppable force in a fiercely intelligent, profanely poetic movie that shifts tonal gears at breakneck speed.

    Pitch Perfect 3
    Fans will find just enough heart-swelling moments involving friendships and family to enjoy one last group hug.

    Star Wars: Episode VIII - The Last Jedi
    An excellent middle chapter bursting with wit, wisdom, emotion, shocks, old-fashioned derring-do, state-of-the-art tech, and stonking set-pieces.
    • 67 Metascore

    Better Watch Out
    This is also a Christmas horror-comedy – and one of the best since Gremlins.
    • 92 Metascore

    The Florida Project
    Poverty and poetry, delinquency and deluxe wonder… this child’s-eye view of lives on a knife-edge is terrific.

    Murder on the Orient Express
    Kenneth Branagh finds interesting ways to grease the wheels of this new take on the oft-filmed novel.
    • 58 Metascore

    Victoria and Abdul
    This funny, touching adap of Shrabani Basu’s 2010 biography has its own chemistry, withering wit and unsentimental message of acceptance. A royal treat.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 80 Jamie Graham
    The Villainess
    The plotting is tangled, the emotional undertow slight, but the action keeps on coming, including a blistering multi-player sword fight on speeding bikes.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 80 Jamie Graham
    It
    Thrilling and haunting, pitching the power of adventure and friendship against the day-to-day horrors of childhood and a chilling Pennywise. An absolute scream.
