  1. High Rollers
    Here is a cheap-ass knockoff of Ocean’s Eleven starring John Travolta that makes the Soderbergh film look like something by Andrei Tarkovsky or Ingmar Bergman.
  2. O'Dessa
    Everyone’s stumbling along in a vaguely defined universe, which really only serves as a backdrop to catchy musical numbers that evolve from folk to pop rock.
  3. Bride Hard
    Films like Bride Hard, proudly recycling well-known popcorn plots without any attempt at originality, rely on heavy-lifting star power but there’s just none of that here.
  4. Leave One Day
    It is burdened by a trite and naive sentimentality that it doesn’t know how to make realistically plausible or transform into romanticism or idealism.
  5. Jay Kelly
    Cine-narcissism like this is always tiresome, and it isn’t any more palatable in a European setting.
  6. Alpha
    The madly, bafflingly overwrought and humourless storytelling can’t overcome the fact that everything here is frankly unpersuasive and tedious. Every line, every scene, has the emoting dial turned up to 11 and yet feels redundant.
  7. The Pickup
    It takes work to make Murphy entirely unfunny, and this film manages the job one-handed.
  8. Rental Family
    It is bafflingly complacent in its sentimentality and its sheer, fatuous implausibility, which makes it valueless and meaningless as drama and comedy.
  9. Maintenance Required
    There’s really nothing to see here, just another synthetic simulation of a film and a genre we used to love, less maintenance required and more complete overhaul.
  10. Christmas Karma
    This cynically Christmassy movie is leaden, unconvincingly acted and about as welcome as a dead rat in the eggnog.
  11. Ladies First
    For a film so unashamedly silly, it’s also incredibly, tiresomely un-fun and, by the end, laughably earnest, as if we should all be learning a very important lesson.
  12. Thrash
    We should be on the edge of our seat but every should-be set piece falls flat, the choreography always feeling a little off and the editing never works as tightly as it should.
  13. Citizen Vigilante
    If Boll and Musk want to make and promote make a film about an establishment stitch-up, then why not a hard-hitting film about the relationship of Jeffrey Epstein and Donald Trump? Meanwhile it’s time for Hammer to return to the trade he followed before this: selling timeshares in the Cayman Islands.
  14. Melania
    It’s one of those rare, unicorn films that doesn’t have a single redeeming quality. I’m not even sure it qualifies as a documentary, exactly, so much as an elaborate piece of designer taxidermy, horribly overpriced and ice-cold to the touch and proffered like a medieval tribute to placate the greedy king on his throne.
