FILM REVIEWS AND NEWS

The news we’ve all been waiting for—the rumble of drums from Moria, the soaring sound of a score that defined a generation—is finally here. Peter Jackson’s masterful cinematic epic, The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring, is officially returning to UK cinemas early next year. This is not just a standard re-release; this is the launch of the film’s massive 25th-anniversary celebrations, and for film lovers, it is truly a precious event.

With the release of the new Bennie Safdie film, The Smashing Machine, it seems timely to take a look at the films Dwayne Johnson has been in.

The year 2025 sees the arrival of a highly anticipated cinematic event: the second film adaptation of Stephen King’s dystopian novel, The Running Man. Directed by Edgar Wright and starring a remarkable ensemble cast, this new take on the classic story promises to be a fresh and exhilarating experience, a far cry from the celebrated 1987 action film starring Arnold Schwarzenegger.

October 2025 is shaping up to be a cracker, with a movie line-up that’s more varied and exciting than a game of cinematic bingo. So, without further ado, grab your tickets and settle in, because here's what you absolutely must see this month.

As the British summer kicks into gear, so too does the cinematic calendar, with UK cinemas set to be awash with a dizzying array of blockbusters, much-anticipated sequels, and fresh cinematic voices. From pulse-pounding action to heartwarming animations and chilling horror, there's a film for every taste waiting to transport audiences to new worlds or revisit beloved ones.
