Ian McKellan gives a delicious performance as a catty gay theatre critic in 1930s London.

Based on Anthony Quinn’s novel Curtain Call, Jimmy Erskine (McKellen) is the most feared theatre critic of the age. He lives as flamboyantly as he writes and takes pleasure in savagely taking down any actor who fails to meet his standards. His newspaper’s new owner, David Brooke (Mark Strong), stands for patriotism and family values. It’s not long before Brooke fires Erskine for his outrageous behaviour and opinions, in particular a fierce review of actress Nina Land (Gemma Arterton). Erskine picks up on this cue and exploits the opportunity to get his job back. He writes a glowing review for Nina, promises her a glittering career, but in return she must do him a favour which has devastating consequences.

Prepare yourself for a Bad Romance as Joaquin Phoenix reprises his Oscar-winning role as the titular deranged villain the Joker opposite Lady Gaga as the queen of chaos Harley Quinn.

The inevitable sequel picks up with Arthur in jail, heavily medicated and jovially bullied by the chief prison guard, played with whistling nonchalance by Brendan Gleeson. A patient in a neighbouring psychiatric ward, Harleen Quinzel (Lady Gaga), is obsessed with Joker. But Arthur’s lawyer (Catherine Keener) argues that Joker is a part of his split personality, basing his defence on this.

The first film channelled Martin Scorsese and the cinema of the ’70s. Here, Todd Phillips is inspired more by Band Wagon, with numbers performed by Gaga and Phoenix to express their unhinged flights of fancy. It’s like Dennis Potter’s Pennies from Heaven but written by Alan Moore.

Clint Eastwood’s icon-making turn as the laconic, tweed-wearing, and ruthlessly committed police officer arrives at the Odyssey.

San Francisco’s authorities are left helpless when a mysterious, unpredictable serial killer charges them hundreds of thousands of dollars to make him stop – unless misanthropic Inspector Harry Callahan can find him first. Before long, the killer’s machinations and the city’s bureaucracy dovetail to make the case unsolvable, forcing Harry to step even further

out of line to keep up. Directed by B-movie master Don Siegel (Invasion of the Body Snatchers, Escape from Alcatraz) and inspired by the then-current Zodiac killings, the film still thrills for its taut, practical action and tightly controlled plot. Eastwood’s performance gave him stardom beyond Westerns and inspired four sequels, which are less curious about just how heroic this bigoted, frequently violent character is.

Sebastian Stan delivers his best performance yet in Aaron Schimberg’s surreal, layered tragicomedy, about an actor freed from a “deformed” face but trapped by his own character.

Living with neurofibromatosis and crippling insecurity, Edward jumps at a treatment that makes him conventionally attractive but cannot resist auditioning when his beloved neighbour writes a play about him. While reliving his former self, he struggles to connect and succeed as much as ever – especially when a charismatic man with his old condition appears and does just that. Written and directed by Schimberg (Chained for Life), the film creates a riveting Kafkaesque fantasy of fractured identity, shot through with fearless humour, brilliant plotting, and insight into how appearances and difference affect it. Stan stands out as the anxious lead, as does TV personality Adam Pearson as his rival.

Stanley Kubrick’s morbidly brilliant, still-hilarious satire on the Cold War returns to the Odyssey for its 60th anniversary.

At the height of political tension between America and the USSR, mad US general Jack D. Ripper orders a nuclear attack on Russia, vowing to stop it from corrupting America’s “vital bodily fluids”. The world’s leaders and military scramble to stop this from starting a chain of events leading to Doomsday – but bureaucracy and bizarre human failings on all sides make this difficult. Before 2001, Kubrick strove to make a chilling study of the looming apocalypse from a thriller novel but soon found the reality too ridiculous to play straight. This made for an impeccably constructed, beautifully silly farce that holds up all too well, lit up by Ken Adam’s sets and an incredible, triple-role Peter Sellers performance.

In this chilling tale, written and directed by A Quiet Place creators Scott Beck and Bryan Woods, Grant stars as Mr. Reed, a seemingly charming man who is visited by two Mormon missionaries after expressing interest in conversion. However, things quickly take a sinister turn. Reed behaves increasingly suspicious, avoiding introducing his wife and offering odd, theatrical lectures on religion, using unorthodox examples. As the tension builds, it becomes clear that Reed has a dangerous, hidden agenda. Grant’s performance is both chilling and compelling, adding layers of intrigue to this gripping horror story.

Cardinal Thomas Lawrence wishes to leave the murky machinations of the Vatican, but is asked by the Pope to stay on, just before his death puts Lawrence in charge of choosing a replacement.

Among spectacular supporting turns from Stanley Tucci, Isabella Rossellini and John Lithgow, Fiennes provides a welcome centre of nuance, thoughtfulness, and much-tried faith.

Set in a London so beautifully shot that it’s a character in its own right, Curtis’ directorial debut plays out over the five-week run-up to Christmas. However, like all the best desserts, a little bit of sharpness is needed to balance out the sweet. So in between the fuzzy moments, we see some genuinely heartbreaking scenes, which all add to the richness of the pudding. A modern-day Christmas staple.
