From this week's picks, still showing today.
Action pick
An all-consuming revenge thriller that never lets up
Matt Hagen rises from Gotham street kid to Hollywood leading man before a crime boss leaves him disfigured, and a cutting-edge treatment sends him spiraling down a destructive path of revenge. Director James Watkins leans into the escalating stakes, and in English in Cologne the descent plays big and mean. Expect momentum over subtlety, which is exactly the point.
Date Night pick
Love, Longing, and the Bond of Sisters
This is romance the way you want it on a night out together: warm, witty, and quietly aching. Daisy Edgar-Jones and Esmé Creed-Miles play sisters navigating love and heartbreak under Georgia Oakley's tender direction, and the film holds a lovely 79% on Rotten Tomatoes and a 7.2 on IMDb. You will walk out debating who loves with their head and who loves with their heart.
Date Night pick
A Dinner Party That Could Change Everything
A couple on thin ice invite their enigmatic upstairs neighbours to dinner, and the evening spirals somewhere no one saw coming in this sharp romantic comedy drama from director Olivia Wilde. Seth Rogen, Wilde, Edward Norton, and Penélope Cruz make every exchange crackle, and critics adore it at 96% on Rotten Tomatoes with a 7.5 on IMDb. Screenings around the city are on the scarcer side this week, so settle your plans a little early to catch it.
