We also watch Tár abuse her position as chief conductor of the Berlin Philharmonic to pursue the latest in a line of young female musicians, Sophie Kauer's cellist, while a past indiscretion comes back to haunt her.</p><p>Blanchett blazes brightly as Tár, capturing her musical authority alongside her vindictiveness and capacity for self-delusion. Field isn't afraid to go against the grain stylistically - he opens the film with the end credits and some long, uncomfortable scenes - or to dig deep into his protagonist's psyche. The result is a fascinating, fleshed-out portrait of a tremendously troubling woman.</p><h2 id=\"his-three-daughters-2024-f1cd00f0\"><strong>His Three Daughters (2024)</strong></h2>"}},{"@id":"/v1/contents/87704390","@type":"Content","type":"image","data":{"url":"https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2024/07/His-Three-Daughters-Netflix-2-fec3cde.jpg","width":7200,"height":4800,"title":"HIS THREE DAUGHTERS","alt":"Natasha Lyonne as Rachel, Elizabeth Olsen as Christina and Carrie Coon as Katie in His Three Daughters sitting together in an embrace on a sofa and smiling.","aspectRatio":0.6661290322580645,"sourceName":"Sam Levy/Netflix","caption":"Natasha Lyonne as Rachel, Elizabeth Olsen as Christina and Carrie Coon as Katie in His Three Daughters.","contain":"all"}},{"@id":"/v1/contents/87704391","@type":"Content","type":"html","data":{"value":"<p>One of the best new films released as a Netflix original in 2024, this low-key drama originally premiered at the 2023 Toronto Film Festival before being acquired by the streamer.

Cruise plays a New York doctor, Bill Harford, who's shaken to the core when his wife, Alice (Kidman), reveals that she was once tempted to have an affair, sending him out in search of sexual revenge.</p><p>Eyes Wide Shut has an eerie mood that is purely Kubrickian, with his smooth, neon-lit world and its unhappy residents compelling and even addictive.

Arriving at the famous House of Dior just as the 10th anniversary collection is to be shown, she's brushed off by the salon's gatekeeper (Isabelle Huppert) but invited to the viewing by a wealthy, well-groomed widower (Lambert Wilson).</p><p>The film makes no bones about its fairy tale qualities, with its saintly characters who help Ada at every turn. But themes of class, wealth and humanity give the story ample depth as it neatly trades British postwar gloom for a colourful Paris of tourist hotspots and red-carpet premieres.

However, if you're open to a light-hearted take on what could be one of the defining moments of our lifetime, consider this romantic comedy that pairs the ever-loveable Seth Rogen with Academy Award winner Charlize Theron.</p><p>The story follows journalist Fred Flarsky (Rogen), who unexpectedly reunites with his childhood crush, Charlotte Field (Theron), as she happens to be running for President.

Kaluuya's superb central performance, Peele's incredibly sharp script, and a host of well-chosen film influences combine to make Get Out an irresistible experience – at once top-quality entertainment and intelligent food for thought.</p><h2 id=\"nimona-2023-e0d6cdd9\"><strong>Nimona (2023)</strong></h2>"}},{"@id":"/v1/contents/87704472","@type":"Content","type":"image","data":{"url":"https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2023/06/Nimonau00554120-610a15a.jpg","width":3240,"height":2160,"title":"Nimona","alt":"Two characters from Nimona chatting","aspectRatio":0.6661290322580645,"sourceName":"Netflix","caption":"Nimona.","contain":"all"}},{"@id":"/v1/contents/87704473","@type":"Content","type":"html","data":{"value":"<p>This animated adventure started its life at Blue Sky Studios only to be shelved following Disney's acquisition of 21st Century Fox in 2021, eventually being picked up by Netflix for release in 2023.

There are plenty of impressive supporting turns, too, with Don Johnson excelling as a slimy police chief.

Little did his prospective clients know, he was working undercover for the police, and their arrests were secured soon after they had handed over cash.</p><div class="ad-placement" data-count="30464" data-paragraphs-left="51"></div><p>A version of Johnson is played by Glen Powell – who also co-wrote the script with Linklater – with the film using the real tale as a jumping off point to tell a fictional love story that ponders what might have happened if he had become romantically involved with one of the clients. The result is a romcom that sees Gary continue to adopt the fake hitman guise he had used on his first encounter with love interest Maddy (Adria Arjona) – which, unsurprisingly, leads to a couple of issues later down the line.<br/>Equal parts farcical screwball comedy and philosophical musing on the nature of identity, the film asks fascinating questions about the capacity of a person to change while never being anything less than brilliantly entertaining. The chemistry between Powell and Arjona is palpable and there are some superbly executed set pieces, leading up to an enjoyably twisted conclusion.</p><div class="ad-placement" data-count="31351" data-paragraphs-left="50"></div><h2 id="godzilla-minus-one-2023-29a8a454"><strong>Godzilla Minus One (2023)</strong></h2><figure class="image chromatic-ignore"><div class="image__container" style="max-width:700px"><picture class="image__picture" width="700" height="466.2903225806452"><source type="image/webp" sizes="(min-width: 992px) 940px,(min-width: 768px) 728px,(min-width: 544px) 556px,calc(100vw - 20px)" srcSet="https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2024/06/Godzilla-Minus-One-b9b6eea.jpg?quality=90&webp=true&fit=325,216 325w,https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2024/06/Godzilla-Minus-One-b9b6eea.jpg?quality=90&webp=true&fit=375,250 375w,https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2024/06/Godzilla-Minus-One-b9b6eea.jpg?quality=90&webp=true&fit=650,433 650w,https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2024/06/Godzilla-Minus-One-b9b6eea.jpg?quality=90&webp=true&fit=750,500 750w,https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2024/06/Godzilla-Minus-One-b9b6eea.jpg?quality=90&webp=true&fit=975,649 975w,https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2024/06/Godzilla-Minus-One-b9b6eea.jpg?quality=90&webp=true&fit=1100,733 1100w,https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2024/06/Godzilla-Minus-One-b9b6eea.jpg?quality=90&webp=true&fit=1300,866 1300w,https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2024/06/Godzilla-Minus-One-b9b6eea.jpg?quality=90&webp=true&fit=1349,899 1349w"/><source sizes="(min-width: 992px) 940px,(min-width: 768px) 728px,(min-width: 544px) 556px,calc(100vw - 20px)" srcSet="https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2024/06/Godzilla-Minus-One-b9b6eea.jpg?quality=90&fit=325,216 325w,https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2024/06/Godzilla-Minus-One-b9b6eea.jpg?quality=90&fit=375,250 375w,https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2024/06/Godzilla-Minus-One-b9b6eea.jpg?quality=90&fit=650,433 650w,https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2024/06/Godzilla-Minus-One-b9b6eea.jpg?quality=90&fit=750,500 750w,https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2024/06/Godzilla-Minus-One-b9b6eea.jpg?quality=90&fit=975,649 975w,https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2024/06/Godzilla-Minus-One-b9b6eea.jpg?quality=90&fit=1100,733 1100w,https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2024/06/Godzilla-Minus-One-b9b6eea.jpg?quality=90&fit=1300,866 1300w,https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2024/06/Godzilla-Minus-One-b9b6eea.jpg?quality=90&fit=1349,899 1349w"/><img class="image__img" src="https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2024/06/Godzilla-Minus-One-b9b6eea.jpg?quality=90&fit=700,466" alt="Godzilla Minus One" data-item-name="Godzilla Minus One" title="Godzilla Minus One" style="aspect-ratio:1 / 0.6661290322580645;object-fit:contain" loading="lazy" width="700" height="466.2903225806452"/></picture></div><div class="editor-content" data-placement="Body"><figcaption>Godzilla Minus One.</figcaption></div></figure><p>If the increasingly silly tone of Hollywood's monster franchise isn't your cup of tea, then consider trying out this distinct and unrelated Japanese version, which earned acclaim upon release last year.

It's well worth a watch.</p><div class="ad-placement" data-count="39132" data-paragraphs-left="26"></div><h2 id="chicken-run-dawn-of-the-nugget-2023-7dda57f1"><strong>Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget (2023)</strong></h2><figure class="image chromatic-ignore"><div class="image__container" style="max-width:700px"><picture class="image__picture" width="700" height="466.2903225806452"><source type="image/webp" sizes="(min-width: 992px) 940px,(min-width: 768px) 728px,(min-width: 544px) 556px,calc(100vw - 20px)" srcSet="https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2023/09/Chicken-Run-2-9fff172.png?quality=90&webp=true&fit=325,216 325w,https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2023/09/Chicken-Run-2-9fff172.png?quality=90&webp=true&fit=375,250 375w,https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2023/09/Chicken-Run-2-9fff172.png?quality=90&webp=true&fit=650,433 650w,https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2023/09/Chicken-Run-2-9fff172.png?quality=90&webp=true&fit=750,500 750w,https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2023/09/Chicken-Run-2-9fff172.png?quality=90&webp=true&fit=975,649 975w,https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2023/09/Chicken-Run-2-9fff172.png?quality=90&webp=true&fit=1100,733 1100w,https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2023/09/Chicken-Run-2-9fff172.png?quality=90&webp=true&fit=1300,866 1300w,https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2023/09/Chicken-Run-2-9fff172.png?quality=90&webp=true&fit=1501,1000 1501w"/><source sizes="(min-width: 992px) 940px,(min-width: 768px) 728px,(min-width: 544px) 556px,calc(100vw - 20px)" srcSet="https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2023/09/Chicken-Run-2-9fff172.png?quality=90&fit=325,216 325w,https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2023/09/Chicken-Run-2-9fff172.png?quality=90&fit=375,250 375w,https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2023/09/Chicken-Run-2-9fff172.png?quality=90&fit=650,433 650w,https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2023/09/Chicken-Run-2-9fff172.png?quality=90&fit=750,500 750w,https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2023/09/Chicken-Run-2-9fff172.png?quality=90&fit=975,649 975w,https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2023/09/Chicken-Run-2-9fff172.png?quality=90&fit=1100,733 1100w,https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2023/09/Chicken-Run-2-9fff172.png?quality=90&fit=1300,866 1300w,https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2023/09/Chicken-Run-2-9fff172.png?quality=90&fit=1501,1000 1501w"/><img class="image__img" src="https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2023/09/Chicken-Run-2-9fff172.png?quality=90&fit=700,466" alt="Mrs Tweedy in Chicken Run 2 looking sly" data-item-name="Mrs Tweedy in Chicken Run 2 looking sly" title="Chicken Run 2" style="aspect-ratio:1 / 0.6661290322580645;object-fit:contain" loading="lazy" width="700" height="466.2903225806452"/></picture></div><div class="editor-content" data-placement="Body"><figcaption>Mrs Tweedy in Chicken Run 2. <span class="fs-italic">Netflix/YouTube</span></figcaption></div></figure><p>More than twenty years after the first film became an instant claymation classic, Ginger, Rocky and the rest of the flock return in this joyous sequel, where we find them on a utopian island paradise following their audacious escape from the evil Mrs Tweedy.</p><div class="ad-placement" data-count="39390" data-paragraphs-left="25"></div><p>But when Ginger (voiced by Thandiwe Newton) and Rocky (Zachary Levi) discover that their intrepid daughter Molly (Bella Ramsey) has set off on her own adventure, old enemies rear their heads and only an expertly orchestrated heist can avert a calamity.</p><div class="ad-placement" data-count="39642" data-paragraphs-left="24"></div><p>The increased scale compared to the original offers director Sam Fell plenty of opportunities to showcase a number of highly innovative and intricately designed set pieces.
