  Last Flight

  1.5
  Action, Horror, Thriller  •  China

  This should have been some silly, slick fun but is instead just a slog with far too much exposition and unnecessary melodrama clogging up proceedings.

  JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Diamond Is Unbreakable – Chapter 1

  3.0
  Action, Adventure, Fantasy  •  Japan

  Despite doing some things right in terms of the look and feel of the franchise, it never quite seems to re-capture the atmosphere or the magical abilities to the point where they truly captivate.

  Kill ‘Em All

  1.5
  Action, Crime, Martial Arts, Mystery, Thriller  •  USA

  ‘Kill ’Em All’ has a gem of an idea at its core but squanders it with needless flashbacks, unnecessary characters and terrible editing.

• 

  The Witness

  3.5
  Crime, Thriller  •  South Korea

  The characters are realistic and have sympathetic worries to consider, the twists keep the viewer guessing throughout and it benefits from Kim Sang-ho at his very best.

  May The Devil Take You

  3.5
  Horror  •  Indonesia

  Groovy, gory, good time from ‘The Night Comes for Us’ director Timo Tjahjanto, ‘May the Devil Take You’ ramps up the craziness when the devil decides to collect his dues.

  Canola

  4.5
  Drama, Family  •  South Korea

  Sentimental, yet never schmaltzy, inspiring though certainly not preachy, ‘Canola’ strikes a beautiful balance between its elements that makes for a hugely admirable whole.
