Almost two centuries before the events of the Lord Of The Rings movie trilogy, the kingdom of Rohan came under threat from a ruthless lord named Wulf. The King, Helm Hammerhand, and his daughter Héra were forced to make a desperate last stand in the ancient stronghold of the Hornburg – the fortress that would come to be known as Helm’s Deep. Mirando Otto, in character as Éowyn, the warrior whose decisive actions led to Sauron’s defeat in The Return Of The King, narrates this imaginative and beautifully animated story of heroism, with Brian Cox (Succession) as the embattled ruler.

We love monsters and ghoulies as much as the next movie fan, but sometimes the most terrifying horror villains are the most normal. Empty-nester and nurse Nicky (Lyndsey Marshal) is living a peaceful existence until a new neighbour (Aston McAuley) moves in and promptly shatters her calm with late-night loud parties. No one in authority will address the problem, so Nicky’s mental health goes downhill fast in this all-too-relatable psychological thriller. The first feature from British writer-director Jed Hart, it has a memorable lead performance from Marshal, who also appeared – appropriately enough – in the TV drama Insomnia.

Police officer turned public prosecutor Fok (Donnie Yen) is convinced that his client Ma (Mason Fung) is pleading guilty to get his drug-lord bosses off the hook. When Fok investigates, he starts to suspect there’s a web of corruption connecting the criminal underworld with the justice system but just to be sure, he needs to beat up a lot of people. Like, a hell of a lot. Martial arts legend Yen, who also directs, is convincing in both the gripping courtroom scenes and the spectacular action set pieces in this fast-moving drama, loosely based on a real-life Hong Kong legal case.

Adrien Brody (The Pianist) joined the rarefied ranks of actors possessing two Oscars with his bravura performance in The Brutalist. Brody is László Toth, a Hungarian who arrives in the US after the devastation of the Second World War and attempts to rebuild his life while establishing himself as a visionary architect. But he soon finds that no matter how talented you are, the upper echelons of influence are barred to all but a select few. Also starring Felicity Jones (The Theory Of Everything) and Guy Pearce (A Spy Among Friends), it’s over three hours long but is never less than absorbing.

Robert Eggers is one of the US most distinctive modern film-makers – The Witch, The Northman – and his homage to the 1922 silent-movie version of the Dracula story is suitably striking. Bill Skarsgård (Pennywise in IT) plays the creepy Count Orlok, luring innocent property agent Thomas Hutter (Nicholas Hoult, Superman) to his abode so he can exert a mysterious power over Hutter and his wife Ellen (Lily-Rose Depp, Wolf). Can occult expert Von Franz (Willem Dafoe, Poor Things) bring them back from the edge of sanity? Stylish, deliciously macabre and sometimes spine-chilling.

Nathan Caine (Jack Quaid) has a genetic abnormality that means he can’t feel pain, so he chooses to live a quiet life to reduce the risk of unrecognised injuries. But when the object of his desire (Amber Midthunder, Prey) is abducted, he realises it’s time to embrace his unusual abilities and rescue her. This action comedy is a wild ride, with outlandish injuries aplenty, and Quaid – moving up from supporting film roles in Oppenheimer, Scream and more – proves a charismatic and likeable leading man.

Blake (Christopher Abbott, It Comes At Night) moves his family from the city to the remote house he’s inherited, looking for a change of lifestyle. But the countryside holds its own dangers, as they discover when they are attacked by an unknown animal on arrival. And soon, Blake begins to exhibit strange behaviour… The subsequent events will be no surprise to anyone who’s, er, seen the film’s title, but it’s an inventive and tense version of a familiar horror story from Saw creator Leigh Whannell, also starring Ozark’s Julia Garner.

Everything Everywhere All At Once Oscar winner Ke Huy Quan stars as Marvin, a suburban real estate agent with a secret criminal past. And guess what – it comes back to haunt him when he receives a letter from former partner Rose (another Oscar winner, West Side Story’s Ariana DeBose), who’s on a revenge mission and draws him back into a shadowy world of assassins and violence. Directed by experienced stunt coordinator Jonathan Eusebio, it delivers cracking fight scenes but lots of laughs too, as well as being unexpectedly romantic.

Rent deadlines, job interviews, unreliable boyfriends – all these are causing headaches for room-mates Dreux (Keke Palmer, Nope) and Alyssa (musician turned actor SZA). But with a payment due to the landlord at 6pm, they need to find a solution to their problems quickly. Cue a hijink-heavy comic journey into the city as they encounter all sorts of eccentric characters and bizarre situations. The chemistry between the two leads elevates this lively and smartly scripted comedy with some uproarious moments.

Cinema icon Jackie Chan plays himself in this energetic action comedy – supposedly the 70-year-old star’s final venture into the genre – in which he adopts an adorable baby panda, only to find that an international crime syndicate has ordered the animal’s capture and demanded a huge ransom. Teaming up with the panda’s caretaker and his own agent, Jackie sets out to rescue the panda via the medium of, you guessed it, mind-blowing kung fu sequences. It’s a good-humoured film in which you’re never more than a few minutes away from a beautifully staged fight scene.

Danny (Luke McQuillan) is an ex-soldier living on the streets of Dublin, trying to survive while haunted by his memories and the dramatic events that tore his family apart, which we see in flashback. He sees a chance at redemption when he encounters teenage Will (Daniel Fee), who’s on the run from a criminal gang – but helping him proves more difficult than expected, especially when the dangerous Power (Aidan Gillen) gets involved. McQuillan, who co-wrote the script with director Mark O’Connor, puts in a sensitive performance in this thoughtful movie while Gillen (Game Of Thrones) brings his trademark soft-spoken menace.
