28 Years LaterRating:With the terrifying and electrifying 28 Years Later, director Danny Boyle and writer Alex Garland have delivered the best post-apocalyptic survivalist horror-thriller film I have ever seen.

F1Rating:The summer’s first blockbuster screeches into cinemas next week, and it’s a car crash of a movie. But in a good way, mostly. The star of F1 is Brad Pitt, and Joseph Kosinski, who cemented his reputation as a fine action-film director with 2022’s Top Gun: Maverick, is at the wheel. Yet there’s an even more eye-catching name in the opening titles.

Ballerina (15, 125 mins)Verdict: Keeps you on your toesRating:Nobody should be misled by the title of Ballerina into trying to take their eight-year-old daughter to see it. It's marketed as 'from the world of John Wick' and is one of the most insanely violent films of the year. But if you like that sort of thing, and don't mind a plot so perfunctory that it's really only there to link one outbreak of murderous mayhem to the next, then Ballerina will keep you on your toes.

The Ballad Of Wallis Island(12A, 139 mins)Verdict: Hilarious and poignantRating:A pair of films open in cinemas today, each as British as a cream tea and both set way out west, yet strikingly different in tone. One is a hoot and the other anything but. The former is The Ballad Of Wallis Island.
