Twinless (2025)
Funny, sweet, and unexpected. Dylan O’Brien shows incredible range, James Sweeney performs the hell out of his role while also directing quite wonderfully (this movie has one of my favourite tracking shots that I’ve seen in a long time). The supporting cast is wonderful and it’s all backed by a great soundtrack. Loved it.

Crime 101 (2026)
Fun little crime thriller. It was entertaining enough watching all the pieces fall into place. Satisfying conclusion. One of those movies that ended and I thought, what was the point? And maybe there wasn’t one. And that’s fine. Not everything is that deep. Most frustrating part was Maya’s character. I had the same issue with her character that I did with the character of Claire in ‘The Bear’. The men they pursue are walking red flag factories and their characters just choose to ignore that for the sake of having a love interest. I wish they would give their characters more depth and leave us with a bit of understanding for why they may choose to chase such obviously toxic men. That’s a rant for another day I suppose.

The Moment (2026)
I enjoyed this a lot more than I expected. I acknowledge a bit of bias as a big Charli xcx fan, however, I think this was a great film debut. Very funny, very sweet at parts and Skarsgård was fantastic as always. The film started off slowly but the payoff at the end was worth it, in my opinion, with a wonderful monologue by Charli and one of the best jokes in the movie. Awesome.
