#  10 Reasons To Go To The Cinema  


 You’ve seen Tenet; now you’ve got to wait until 12th November for the new Bond film. From the third instalment in a bloody British caper series to Benedict Cumberbatch’s latest, here are ten other new films to draw you back to the cinema…

### The King’s Man

The third Kingsman film is a prequel to the first one, which back in 2014 established the series as a brutal and often funny new player in the world of British caper movies. *The King’s Man* is essentially an origin story for the world’s first independent intelligence agency, which much prefers lethal action over appeasement. Matthew Vaughn (*Layer Cake*, *Kick-Ass*) is in the director’s chair once more and an ensemble cast boasts big British names including Ralph Fiennes, Gemma Arterton, Rhys Ifans, Tom Hollander and Charles Dance.

### White Riot

*White Riot* won the best documentary award at last year’s London Film Festival and finally – deservedly – gets a cinematic release. It’s London, 1977 and the punk movement could go either way: lurching towards the far right or embracing an altogether more inclusive political movement. In the face of anti-immigration hysteria and a neo-nazi recruitment drive, Rock Against Racism is formed and the likes of the Clash rally round to deliver its message to the masses. The energy of the time is palpable throughout Rubika Shah’s excellent film.

### Schemers

This raucous Scottish film made an impression at festivals around the world and earned itself a comparison or two with *Trainspotting*. Writer-director David McLean is telling his own life story – how he became an unlikely rock concert promoter – so there’s the whiff of vanity project about *Schemers*. Ultimately, though, the story is plenty good enough to sustain a 90-minute movie: McLean decides to put on a gig to impress a girl and quickly finds himself out of his depth, borrowing money from the mob to bring Iron Maiden to Dundee.

### Death on the Nile

Kenneth Branagh is a busy man. Having played a Russian oligarch in *Tenet*, he’s behind the camera for this one, directing his second Agatha Christie adaptation. In this follow-up to his all-star *Murder on the Orient Express*, Branagh once again plays a prodigiously moustachioed Hercule Poirot. This time around, the Belgian detective is on holiday in Egypt when he’s called upon to investigate a murder linked to a mysterious love triangle. Gal Gadot (*Wonder Woman*) and Armie Hammer (*The Social Network*, *Nocturnal Animals*) bring international prestige to a largely British cast.

### Candyman

Jordan Peele (*Get Out*, *Us*) has written this ‘spiritual sequel’ to the 1992 film of the same name. Set in the same, now gentrified Chicago neighbourhood where the legend began, director Nia DaCosta’s new version sees Tony Todd return as Candyman, the hook-handed ghost of a slave’s son who was murdered in the 1800s. This time around there are some pretentious yuppies to terrorise including an artist looking to build his name.

### Cordelia

This London-set psychological thriller tracks a young woman who starts to implode as she grapples with events that may or may not be real. She’s also got a stalker to contend with and some weird, eccentric neighbours. Antonia Campbell-Hughes leads a cast that includes actor-musician Johnny Flynn and the magnificent Michael Gambon (*Harry Potter*, *Kingsman*).

### Saint Maud

This debut feature from British writer-director Rose Glass earned glowing reviews as it completed a lap of the festival circuit last year, even earning comparisons with *Carrie*, *The Exorcist* and *Under The Skin*. In a dank British seaside town, Maud is a god-fearing hospice nurse who takes it upon herself to save the soul of a heavy drinking patient, Amanda (Jennifer Ehle), who was once a celebrated dancer. As Amanda conversely tries to get Maud to loosen up, the nurse starts to think she might have been possessed by the devil and a gripping psychological horror ensues.
