    Warcraft
    Tasked with brokering a peace between event-sized thrills, gaming lore and high fantasy, Jones embraces Warcraft’s world with laudable commitment: but when it comes to charging it with life, sheer bulk gets the better of him.

    Department Q: The Absent One
    Lie Laas' furrowed lead and Nørgaard's taut orchestration of flashback-pumped plotting help flesh out old clichés – at least until the climax takes a glum turn for the overwrought.

    The Flash
    Muschietti directs confidently, notably in an opening sequence that betters both Justice Leagues for fun. What’s less persuasive is the CGI, an eyesore that’s particularly gaudy when the finale’s ‘secrets’ drop.

    San Andreas
    The cast’s likeable work falls right through the script holes.

    Argylle
    First too slow, then too silly, Vaughn’s well-cast but wayward romp fires off half-baked ideas without the focus needed to make them stick.

    Smurfs: The Lost Village
    “Prepare for Gar-mageddon!” Or worse: more Smurfs films.

    Ben-Hur
    Wanted director Timur Bekmambetov stresses spectacle over subtext – and, effectively, leaves the cast floundering fast.

    Transformers: Age Of Extinction
    When someone in Age Of Extinction carps about “crap sequels and remakes” in movies, you almost choke on the audacity.

    The Exorcist: Believer
    Fitful jolts aside, the devil trots out the old tunes wearily in this hoary and overcooked valentine to a horror classic.

    400 Days
    If the final third’s sudden, Twilight Zone-lite genre relocation seems desperate, the hollow climax confirms suspicions: vital supplies of narrative oxygen are lacking here.

    The 355
    The cast commit, but The 355 is no lucky number for Kinberg, who only delivers diminished returns on spy-thriller genre conventions.

    The Old Guard
    Even an axe-swinging Charlize Theron struggles to wallop much life – endless or otherwise - into Gina Prince-Bythewood’s comic-book riff, a derivative fantasy-actioner so laggy it puts you right off immortality.

    Project Power
    There’s a chemical imbalance here… Netflix’s super-drug thriller is less than addictive.
    • 46 Metascore

    The Nun
    Too rackety and hackneyed to scare, The Nun groans next to the likes of Hereditary. Only the moody, menacing abbey inspires the right levels of belief.

    Dark Phoenix
    Despite mostly sparky cast-work, the Phoenix never quite rises as hoped in Kinberg’s affectionate but often perfunctory X-Men send-off.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 40 Kevin Harley
    Days of Grace
    Coherence croaks as Gout dishes enough jump-cuts, whip pans and slo-mo assassinations to make Michael Bay look restrained, but the multi-handed mood music offers meaty compensations.
    • 26 Metascore
    • 20 Kevin Harley
    Madame Web
    While the visuals are refreshingly clean and grounded for a modern superhero film, the story is bogged down by exposition and egregious product placement.
