The Beguiled
- 2017
- US
- 1h 34min
- 15
- Directed by: Sofia Coppola
- Cast: Colin Farrell, Nicole Kidman, Kirsten Dunst, Elle Fanning
John McBurney (Farrell) is a wounded Union deserter in the US Civil War who winds up in a school for girls, where headmistress Martha (Kidman) is persuaded to show him kindness. Coppola’s remake of Don Siegel’s sweaty 1971 original plays like meticulously crafted high-camp melodrama; intermittently enjoyable, but rushed and flustered.

Dunkirk
- 2017
- 1h 46min
- 12A
- Directed by: Christopher Nolan
- Written by: Christopher Nolan
- Cast: Tom Hardy, Mark Rylance, Cillian Murphy, Harry Styles
Survival story set during the battle of Dunkirk in WWII. The younger cast members acquit themselves admirably, including pop star Harry Styles; and, in its uncomfortable depiction of frightened men looking to save their own skin, this is far from straightforwardly patriotic fare. As he delivers non-stop visual audacity, once again Nolan shows himself to be a master of pure cinema.

The Emoji Movie
- 2017
- US
- 1h 26min
- PG
- Directed by: Tony Leondis
- Cast: T. J. Miller, James Corden, Anna Faris, Maya Rudolph, Steven Wright, Jennifer Coolidge, Jake T. Austin, Christina Aguilera, Sofia Vergara, Patrick Stewart
Gene (Miller) is a ‘meh’ emoji living in Textopolis who can’t help displaying mixed emotions. Targeted for deletion, he goes on the run with perky Hi-5 (Corden) and hacker Jailbreak (Faris). A combination of product placement, ingratiating voice work and barrel-scraping studio desperation, it’s a witless and blandly generic journey of self-discovery.

The Limehouse Golem
- 2016
- UK
- 1h 49min
- 15
- Directed by: Juan Carlos Medina
- Cast: Olivia Cooke, Eddie Marsan, Bill Nighy
In Victorian London, Scotland Yard detective John Kildare becomes embroiled with music hall performer Lizzie Cree (Olivia Cooke). This adaptation by Jane Goldman of Peter Ackroyd’s 1994 novel never quite finds its rhythm, and although Cooke and Nighy are good, it promises more than it delivers.

Victoria & Abdul
- 2017
- UK/US
- 1h 51min
- PG
- Directed by: Stephen Frears
- Cast: Judi Dench, Ali Fazal, Eddie Izzard, Adeel Akhtar, Michael Gambon
When Queen Victoria (Dench) is introduced to a young man from India, Abdul Karim (Fazal), she is charmed when he prostrates himself and kisses her foot: unlikely cross-cultural friendship and Urdu lessons duly ensue. Fazal and Dench are excellent and there’s a surprisingly effective political subtext.
