Korean filmmaker Park Chan-wook was one of the 2000's biggest revelations and Oldboy is his finest work. Adapted from a Japanese manga, it was a twisted tale of revenge that kept you enthralled from the first frame to the last.

There are also some amazing action sequences littered throughout the running time, all to the sounds of a breathtaking score.

Synopsis;

“I don't want a childhood. I want to be a ballet dancer.”

25th anniversary of a heartwarming British classic – Stephen Daldry’s Billy Elliot.

An 80s-set tale of an 11-year-old boy who just wants to learn ballet, the play takes in the political strife of the era alongside a genuine and affectionate father-son relationship. The story touched a chord with audiences, propelling this small British film to earn over $100m at the worldwide box office and a slew of Oscar and BATFA nominations and wins, including the BAFTA for Best Leading Actor with then-14-year-old Jamie Bell beating out the likes of Tom Hanks and Russell Crowe.

A quarter of a century on, the film remains as realistic and as heartwarming as ever and has established itself as a genuine classic.

Nadine Sierra stars as the sleepwalking Amina in Bellini’s heart-rending La Sonnambula, a tale of love lost and found set in the Swiss Alps—reimagined by director Rolando Villazón as a haunting journey through the mind, with Riccardo Frizza conducting a stellar cast.

Five-time Olivier Award winner Imelda Staunton (The Crown) joins forces with her real-life daughter Bessie Carter (Bridgerton) for the very first time, playing mother and daughter in Bernard Shaw's incendiary moral classic.

Vivie Warren is a woman ahead of her time. Her mother, however, is a product of that old patriarchal order. Exploiting it has earned Mrs. Warren a fortune – but at what cost?

Filmed live from the West End, this new production reunites Staunton with director Dominic Cooke (Follies, GOOD), exploring the clash between morality and independence, traditions and progress.  

Emerging from a wild, working-class dreamscape of friendship, fame and fuzzy guitars, this is the story of six Wirral teens who became The Coral and shook the British indie scene.

Dreaming of You is a nostalgic, immersive coming-of-age documentary charting the rise of The Coral, six childhood mates from the Wirral who turned suburban misfit energy into musical magic. Set against the backdrop of 1990s Britain, in particular the vibrant music scene in the north of England, the film mixes playful animation, gritty archive, and intimate audio diaries to tell the band’s story in their own words. As they escape the sleepy streets of Hoylake for the chaos of the early 2000s indie explosion, their journey captures the thrill and confusion of chasing a dream. With a distinct Britpop-era aesthetic and deep emotional resonance, Dreaming of You is a heartfelt ode to friendship, creativity and the messy pursuit of fame.

Young Norman Babcock (Kodi Smit-McPhee) has the ability to speak with the dead -- and he often prefers their company to that of the living. Norman receives word from his strange Uncle Prenderghast (John Goodman) that a centuries-old witch's curse on their town is real and about to come true -- and that only Norman can stop it. When zombies rise from their graves, Norman must summon all his courage and compassion and push his paranormal abilities to the limit to save his fellow townspeople.

One of the first "true" slasher flicks: Camp counsellors are stalked and murdered by an unknown assailant, while trying to reopen a summer camp closed due to a child's drowning.

They're here to save the world.

After the members of a team of scientists (Harold Ramis, Dan Aykroyd, Bill Murray) lose their cushy positions at a university in New York City, they decide to become "ghostbusters" to wage a high-tech battle with the supernatural for money. They stumble upon a gateway to another dimension, a doorway that will release evil upon the city. The Ghostbusters must now save New York from complete destruction.

One of the poster boys of the New Hollywood era, Jack Nicholson gives a barnstorming performance as a small-time crook who fakes insanity in order to serve his sentence in a mental ward rather than prison, where he believes he will be more comfortable.

Urchin is the stunning directorial debut from Harris Dickinson (Babygirl, Triangle of Sadness), powered by an outstanding, award-winning performance from Frank Dillane.

Mike (Dillane), a rough sleeper on the streets of London, is trapped in a cycle of self-destruction as he attempts to turn his life around. Moving between short-term jobs and small-time hustles, he must balance the hopeful rush of a fresh start with a past that is holding him back.

By turns exhilarating and poetic, Urchin is a bold, vibrant and utterly unmissable portrait of life on the margins.

The Smashing Machine follows Mark Kerr, the legendary MMA fighter from the no-holds-barred era of the UFC at the peak of his career. He struggles with addiction, winning, love and friendship in the year 2000.

Starring Dwayne Johnson in a transformative performance alongside Oscar nominee Emily Blunt, the film won 'Silver Lion - Award for Best Director' at this years Venice Film Festival for director Benny Safdie.

DEPECHE MODE: M is a cinematic journey into the heart of Mexican culture's relationship with death, framed by the iconic performances of Depeche Mode during their 2023 Memento Mori tour. Conceived and directed by award-winning Mexican filmmaker Fernando Frías, the film captures the band's three sold-out shows in Mexico City, attended by over 200,000 fans, blending concert footage with interpretive interstitials and archival material.

DEPECHE MODE: M celebrates the band's global influence while delving into the profound connection between music, mortality, and Mexican tradition — a sacred meeting point where pain, memory, joy, and dance dissolve into one another, blurring into something profoundly and beautifully human.

“Hey, there's something down here...”

Set in the Appalachian Mountains, the film follows six women on a spelunking adventure. Spurning the traditional “tourist” caves for a more unknown one, the women soon find the system of subterranean tunnels to be far more dangerous than expecting – and that something monstrous may be lurking in the deep and claustrophobic darkness. Although director Neil Marshall wanted to try his hand at a new genre after the success of his 2002 cult horror film Dog Soldiers, the idea for The Descent was too appealing for him to turn down. Marshall argued that the films were different enough in style that it wouldn’t feel like he was doing the same thing and expanded on the differences by making the main cast all-women, a rarity in the horror genre. Citing films such as The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and The Thing as inspirations in how to build tension,
