Rules Don't Apply (out Apr 27) is a Warren Beatty directed drama that looks at the later years of the mysterious Howard Hughes and his connection with those around him. Blending fantasy and reality, this was a surprisingly unadventurous effort - even more so when you compare it to Martin Scorsese's The Aviator. Grade: C+.

Get Out (out May 4) is an unorthodox horror-thriller that could be game changer for the genre. Instead of frightening the audience with blood, violence and creepy noises, writer-director Jordan Peele puts you on edge by having to listen to unsettling conversations. The less you know going in, the better! Grade: A.

The Innocents (out Apr 27) is a drama that recounts a true story that took place in Poland in the months following the end of World War II. A French doctor was called upon to assist a group of Polish nuns after a horrific series of events. A few parts feel superfluous but this is still a powerful eye-opener. Grade: B.

Things to Come (out Apr 27) is a meandering French drama about a middle aged mother who finds her life coming to a crossroad. I didn't take as much from Mia Hansen-Løve's film as others have but it's hard not to be impressed by Isabelle Huppert's leading performance. Grade: B.

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (out Apr 27) keeps the franchise on the right track. The story isn't that memorable but it's still fun to watch given the continual insults shared between the characters and their obvious lack of social skills. Grade: B+.

Raw (out Apr 20) is a wonderfully messed up French horror film about a vegetarian teenager who develops a love for human flesh during her first year at college. Some scenes are "hard to stomach" which makes it all the better. Grade: A-.

Table 19 (out Apr 20) is a comedy about a group of "randoms" seated in the far corner table at a wedding reception. They open up about their respective backgrounds and problems. There’s a lot of talk at Table 19 but there weren’t many laughs in Cinema 4. Grade: C.

Going in Style (out Apr 20) is an uninspired, unfunny comedy about three 70-something-year-old guys who plan on robbing a bank to pay for their retirement. None of the characters demonstrate any intelligence and it looks like they wrote the script as they went along. Grade: C.

Their Finest (out Apr 20) is a fictitious WWII comedy-drama about a young Welsh woman (Gemma Arterton) who finds herself making propaganda films to help lift the spirit of the British public. I was disappointed by the final act but this is still a likeable crowd-pleaser that offers drama, comedy and romance. Grade: B.

Berlin Syndrome (out Apr 20) is based on the novel by Melanie Joosten and is about young Australian woman living in Germany who is abducted and kept captive by a sinister man. I wasn't 100% sold by the finale but it's a tense thriller in the lead up. It asks the question - "what would you do in the same situation?" Grade: B+.
