Hunt for the Wilderpeople

"Every once in a while, a small, unheralded film comes along, so smart and funny, such a pleasure to experience, you can't believe your luck. 'Hunt for the Wilderpeople' is such a film." - Kenneth Turan, L.A. Times

Raised on hip-hop and foster care, defiant city kid Ricky gets a fresh start in the New Zealand countryside. He quickly finds himself at home with his new foster family: the loving Aunt Bella, the cantankerous Uncle Hec, and dog Tupac. When a tragedy strikes that threatens to ship Ricky to another home, both he and Hec go on the run in the bush.

“No documentary generated more breathless buzz at this year’s Sundance Film Festival than Tickled, which begins as a lighthearted look at the alleged sport of “competitive endurance tickling” and gradually turns into something much more disturbing.

Me Before You

Game Of Thrones’ Emilia Clarke and Hunger Games’ Sam Claflin have great chemistry in adaptation of bestselling weeper

"This adaptation of Jojo Moyes’s best-seller (scripted by the novelist herself) might have the structure of a comfort-food weepie, but it’s a rom-com with brains. The movie manages to shift sensitively from laugh-out-loud moments to tear-jerking scenes, discussing euthanasia on the way. In this adaptation, the book’s millions of readers have nothing to worry about.

The Jungle Book

"Favreau's reinvention of a beloved '60s classic... delightfully entertaining... bordering on perfection..." - Leonard Maltin

"Jon Favreau’s new production of The Jungle Book for Disney is nothing short of spectacular: a reinvention of the much-loved cartoon feature brought to life with taste, heart, and cutting-edge technology... any doubts I had about combining a live-action Mowgli (Neel Sethi ) with CGI-rendered animals was dispelled within moments.

Genius

Highly polished, poetically minded biographical film that captures something of the essence of the author-editor relationship and the genius of both of its subjects. Few films have such a literary aura as this.

Michael Grandage's 'Genius' is a deeply romantic film, albeit the kind one rarely sees on screen: a romance of the written word.
