Frozen II (out Nov 28) is a notch below its predecessor but still has a lot to offer. There are worthy themes, fun songs and great character interaction. There's even a scene-stealing performance from a gust of wind! Grade: B+.

21 Bridges (out Nov 21) is a standard cop thriller about an NYPD detective (Chadwick Boseman) battling the clock to locate and arrest two criminals responsible for killing a group of fellow police officers. We’ve seen this storyline many times before and we’re likely to see it many times more. Grade: C+.

Farming (out Nov 21) is a confronting but also confusing drama set in 1960s London about a black African man who becomes part of a gang led by white supremacists. We see their horrible actions but the film struggles to explore their mindsets. Grade: C+.

Fisherman's Friends (out Nov 21) is a warm-hearted true story about a group of unknown fishermen from South West England who are approached by a music producer looking to take their sea shanties to a worldwide audience. It doesn't always move in the direction you may expect. Enjoyable and easy to like. Grade: B+.

Judy & Punch (out Nov 21) is a dark Australian comedy about murder, betrayal and puppeteers. A few parts of the story feel contrived (in trying to link them to the famous Punch & Judy tale) but the performances from leads Damon Herriman and Mia Wasikowska are very good. Grade: B.

Marriage Story (out Nov 14) is centred around a separated couple going through an increasingly complicated divorce. Other films have covered this topic with more emotion and intensity (2017's Custody springs to mind) but it's still a strong drama with two (seemingly) natural performances from Scarlett Johansson and Adam Driver. The second act is the best. Grade: B+.

Official Secrets (out Nov 21) recounts the true story of a 28-year-old British woman who blew the whistle on an illegal spying operation orchestrated by the UK and US governments. Keira Knightley is outstanding in the lead role as she grapples with the validity of her acts. The punchline in the final act is unforgettable. Grade: A-.

Charlie's Angels (out Nov 14) is a disappointing attempt to reboot the film franchise which began in 2000. The action scenes are over-edited, the plot lacks credibility, and the jokes (for the most part) fall flat. It's trying way too hard to be fun. Grade: C.

I Am No Bird (out Nov 14) is a documentary that follows 4 very different women from around the world who are preparing to get married. It delves into their motivations, their expectations and their respective cultures. It's not offering any ground breaking insight (marriages have been explored in countless feature films from most countries) but it's still nice to meet these women and hear their stories. Grade: B-.

Ford v Ferrari (out Nov 14) follows two key characters (played by Matt Damon and Christian Bale) who helped design a Ford racing car to take on the powerful Ferrari team in the mid-1960s. The story is over-romanticised in places and there's a weak, one-note villain (Josh Lucas) but aside, this is compelling viewing that held by attention throughout. Quality performances, edge-of-your seat racing sequences, and it all adds up to an interesting true story! Grade: B+.
