    As well as J-Bone’s recommendations:

    • Kalki 2898 AD - like an Indian Star Wars that is set in a dystopian future but mixes in mythology. It’s long and I was initially unimpressed but it keeps ramping up to wild levels and completely won me round. It’s India’s most expensive film and only part 1.
    • A Quiet Place: Day One - I thought the first two were great and was unsure if a prequel would work as well, but it does.
    • Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire - a return to New York should have delivered a film on oar with the original but it didn’t hit the spot (perhaps because of the rather poor quality baddie). However, it is worth a watch.
    • Poor Things - very odd, fantastical film. Could have done being trimmed down but like nothing else you’ll see in the cinema.
    • Godzilla: Minus One - just watched the Minus Color version in the cinema on Godzilla Day and it still stands on, the B&W suiting the more melodramatic plot.
    • Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes - if you love the series you’ll likely enjoy the prequel. If you aren’t a fan you can skip it.
    • The Creator - I was increasingly unconvinced by the plot as the film progressed but it doesn’t half look good.
    • Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny - after Crystal Skull anything would be an improvement but this exceeded my, admittedly, low expectations and was a fun romp. Fourth, perhaps third, best Indy film depending on how well you think Temple of Doom has aged.
    • Spider-Man: Across the Spiderverse - it would be difficult to beat the first film but I think this one might do.
    • Guardians of the Galaxy 3 - wasn’t as big a fan of 2 than one but the series finished really strong.
    • Shazam! Fury of the Gods - didn’t get a great reception but I enjoyed it for what it was, dumb fun.
