Marvel’s First Family finally steps into the MCU with this gorgeous movie set in a gorgeously realised 1960s retro-futuristic world. Reed Richards (Pedro Pascal), Sue Storm (Vanessa Kirby), Johnny Storm (Joseph Quinn) and Ben Grimm (Ebon Moss-Bachrach) have been in the hero business for four successful years when they encounter a threat of cosmic proportions – the planet-guzzler Galactus (Ralph Ineson) and his herald Shalla-Bal, the Silver Surfer (Julia Garner). But to save their universe, will they need to make the ultimate sacrifice? Blending dazzling action, sharp humour and heartfelt drama, First Steps is a triumph.

Writer/director James Gunn kicks off a brand-new DC Universe with his take on the iconic hero. David Corenswet dons the cape to play an alien caught between his Kryptonian heritage and his life as a Kansas farm boy, facing Lex Luthor (Nicholas Hoult) and navigating his growing bond with Lois Lane (Rachel Brosnahan). This Superman is equal parts heartfelt, witty and spectacular – and the kind of fresh start only Gunn (Guardians Of The Galaxy, Peacemaker) could deliver. A soaring reinvention that puts hope, humour and humanity at the heart of the DCU, and the best cinematic pooch since the dog in The Artist.

Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) accepts one last mission in the explosive finale to the action-packed spy series. With the Entity, a rogue artificial intelligence, threatening to plunge the world into chaos, Ethan and his IMF team are in a race against time to shut it down for good. As you’d expect from Cruise and director Christopher McQuarrie, they leave it all out there in this final instalment with the big practical stunts and globe-trotting action that have become the series’ hallmarks. Ving Rhames, Simon Pegg, Hayley Atwell, Esai Morales, Pom Klementieff and Hannah Waddingham also star.

Director Danny Boyle and writer Alex Garland reunite to bring us a terrifying new story set in the world created in 28 Days Later. As the title suggests, it has been nearly three decades since the rage virus swept across Britain, with survivors now living in fragile enclaves while the world beyond remains a nightmare. When a group leaves a heavily defended small island for the mainland on a mission, they uncover horrors greater than they ever imagined. This long-awaited sequel starring Jodie Comer, Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Jack O’Connell is nerve-shredding and brilliant.

As we creep towards Halloween and the season of scares, they don’t come much scarier than this chilling, genre-bending horror from acclaimed director Zach Cregger (Barbarian). When all but one child from the same class mysteriously vanishes on the same night at the same time, a community is left questioning who or what is behind their disappearance. Creggar might be relatively new to the game, but he might be horror’s new master – and the critics agree (this movie currently holds a 94% score on Rotten Tomatoes). Josh Brolin and Julia Garner star.

Bob Odenkirk is back as Hutch Mansell, the seemingly ordinary family man with a very particular set of skills. After trying to leave his violent past behind for a family holiday, Hutch is dragged into another brutal conflict when a shadowy new enemy threatens his loved ones. With fists, bullets and one-liners flying in every direction, this sequel ups the ante with even more bone-crunching action and dark humour. Connie Nielsen and Christopher Lloyd return alongside Odenkirk, while new adversaries push Hutch to his limits in this wildly entertaining, gloriously over-the-top ride.

The beloved animated series takes flight once again in a live-action reimagining of Hiccup and Toothless’s first adventure and is packed with heart, humour and jaw-dropping spectacle. On the Viking island of Berk, young outcast Hiccup (Mason Thames, The Black Phone) dreams of becoming a dragon slayer – until a fateful encounter with an injured Night Fury changes everything. As boy and dragon forge an unbreakable bond, they set out to prove that understanding, not fear, can unite their worlds. This dazzling new take brings the magic of Cressida Cowell’s story to life like never before.
