Feel like going to the movies? Not sure what to see? Here are five films currently in cinemas and worth the effort.

Marshland

A vital, vibrant antidote to the overcrowded serial killer genre. Shows just how personal the genre can be when some thought is put into the context. Full review.

Love & Mercy

Unexpectedly affecting and heartfelt, this unique biopic of Beach Boy Brian Wilson features two very different actors as two very different incarnations of Wilson. Full review. 

The Falling

This ’60s-set drama may never quite live up to the potential of the premise — a fainting epidemic at a girls boarding school in rural England — but it remains a far more fascinating proposition than most dramas out there. Full review at Flicks. 

Minions

It’s being somewhat overshadowed by the justly-lauded Inside Out, but like other recent inspired “kids” films Shaun The Sheep and The Spongebob Movie: Sponge Out of Water, this shames most live-action comedies with its laugh-rate. Full review.

Jurassic World

After lumbering, cumbersome blockbusters like Avengers: Age of Ultron and Tomorrowland, this year’s biggest movie brought the fun back to the multiplex.
