Amy (15) Dir: Asif Kapadia UK 2015 2hrs Documentary
Although only 27 when the singer Amy Winehouse tragically died this amazingly revealing portrait of her life leaves no stone unturned as her sheer delight in singing was chipped away by success, bad choices, booze and drugs. Directed by the maker of Senna this is absolutely the final word on her car-crash existence.

Love & Mercy (12A) Dir: Bill Pohlad USA 2015 2hrs With: John Cusack, Paul Dano
A fascinating biopic of Beach Boys genius Brian Wilson that examines two distinct periods in his troubled life – the 1960s and the 1980s – as he fought various psychological demons. Interestingly Wilson is played by two different actors who brilliantly capture the musician’s state of mind. Great music too. Amy

Ted 2 (15) Dir: Seth MacFarlane USA 2015 1hr 55mins With: Mark Wahlberg, Amanda Seyfried
A hilarious follow-up to Family Guy creator Seth MacFarlane’s 2012 Ted, this tightly written sequel hinges on the walking, talking teddy bear having to prove that he is a person rather than a toy. Bad language throughout but also brilliantly funny, Ted 2 is a hoot.

Touch of Evil (12) Dir: Orson Welles USA 1958 1hr 35mins With: Orson Welles, Charlton Heston
The digital re-release of Orson Welles’ last great American film is one to savour. Playing a shabby, dishonest detective in a Tex/Mex border town Welles turns a sleazy thriller into timeless art.

The Legend of Barney Thomson
Actor Robert Carlyle makes his directorial debut with this deliriously jet-black comedy about a downtrodden barber whose mundane life is turned upside down when he accidentally becomes a killer. Emma Thompson’s performance as the barber’s fierce mum is worth the ticket alone.

Marshland (15) Dir: Alberto Rodríguez Spain 2014 1hr 45mins Subtitled With: Javier Gutiérrez, Raúl Arévalo
Marshland is a blistering thriller set in the deep south of Spain in 1980 following the fall of Franco. In a remote town adolescent girls are being murdered and two antagonistic city cops are brought in to catch the killer. Superb.

Sherlock Director Guy Ritchie brings his sense of style and jokey flair to this fine reboot of the 1960’s TV series wherein a couple of suave spies prevent some nuclear weapons falling into the wrong hands. Dangerously entertaining.
