Going Clear: Scientology And The Prison Of Belief (out Jun 18) is a documentary from Oscar winner Alex Gibney that pulls back the curtain on Scientology and exposes it as a sham. There's some great footage of key Scientologists in action (e.g. David Miscavige) but the film could have used a more diverse group of interviewees. Grade: B.

Inside Out (out Jun 18) is a Pixar animated feature that takes us inside the head of a vibrant, impressionable 11-year-old girl. It’s a fascinating concept that is rich in detail. The film’s most impressive attribute is the way it explores human emotions and the way they are so often intertwined. A stunning achievement that blends creativity, humour and emotion. Grade: A.

Hot Pursuit (out Jun 11) is a dismally unfunny comedy that stars Reese Witherspoon as a by-the-book police offer and Sofia Vergara as an unwilling witness she is trying to protect. Their on again, off again friendship is frustratingly inconsistent. Grade: C-.

The Emperor's New Clothes (out Jun 11) is a documentary designed to highlight the growing inequality between rich and poor and the role that banks have played. The Oscar winning Inside Job covered this top in a more concise, interesting manner. This is too focused on host/narrator Russell Brand and there are numbers flying everywhere. Grade: C+.

Jurassic World (out Jun 11) is worth seeing for the pure spectacle. The sound and visual effects artists have done a superb job creating these fearsome creatures. The anti-capitalism and anti-genetic themes offer a few thought provoking moments... but most of the film is spent watching dumb characters run from dinosaurs (which gets a little frustrating). Grade: B+.

The Mafia Only Kills In Summer (out Jun 11) is an odd Italian film that tries to blend cute comedy with real-life drama. Set in Palermo, it's largely a love story between two people who find their lives intrinsically linked with the mafia. Interesting idea but lead character is too goofy. Grade: B-.

Strangerland (out Jun 11) is an Australian drama about a husband and wife trying to cope when their two children go missing in a remote outback town. This is a grim drama that asks tough questions of its characters. Screenplay runs out of puff late but still to be admired for its unflinching look at a tragic situation. Grade: B+.

Slow West (out Jun 4) feels limited in terms of story but it's still a nicely shot western-drama with tough performances from Michael Fassbender and Kodi Smit-McPhee. It centres on a young Scottish lad who has gone in search of the woman he loves. Grade: B.

Aloha (out Jun 4) is a poorly executed romantic drama from writer-director Cameron Crowe (Jerry Maguire) that doesn't make much sense. During the Sony email leaks in late 2014, studio co-chairman Amy Pascal said that several parts made “no sense” and that “I’m never starting a movie again when the script is ridiculous.” She's spot on. Grade: C.

Entourage (out Jun 4) is more of a celebration of the Entourage series rather a continuation of it. We get to catch up with these characters for the first time in 4 years, have a few laughs, and realise that not much has changed. It also provides a fast-paced, slightly over-exaggerated look at the inner-workings of the studio system in Hollywood. Fans of the show (the target audience) will lap it up. Grade: B.
