  • Knocking and Running: The Whisper Man (2026) & The Runner (2026)
    2026/09/24

    We review The Whisper Man and The Runner - two new streaming thrillers that couldn’t feel more different. The Whisper Man is a Netflix mystery about a widowed crime writer whose son is abducted, pulling him back toward his estranged father and an old serial-killer case. The Runner is a Prime Video action thriller about a London lawyer forced to race across the city after her son is kidnapped.

    We get into whether The Whisper Man actually adds anything to the serial-killer genre and why The Runner falls apart.

  • Pressure (2026) - weather, war and one impossible call
    2026/09/17

    Anthony Maras brings this tense historical drama to the screen, adapted from David Haig’s stage play. Set in the days before D-Day, the story follows RAF meteorologist Group Captain James Stagg (Andrew Scott) as he is given the impossible task of forecasting the weather for Operation Overlord. With thousands of Allied ships waiting to cross the Channel, Stagg must convince General Eisenhower (Brendan Fraser) whether conditions will hold - knowing a wrong call could cost the war. Kerry Condon, Chris Messina and Damian Lewis round out the cast.

    We discuss whether a wordy, play-based story about a weather forecast can still feel like a proper movie, how well Andrew Scott and Brendan Fraser carry the tension, and why shining a light on the people behind D-Day rather than the beaches themselves makes this one of the more distinctive World War II films of the year.

  • The Dog Stars (2026) - finding hope after an apocalypse
    2026/09/03

    Legendary director Ridley Scott returns to the post-apocalyptic genre with this slow-burn sci-fi drama. Set after a devastating pandemic, the story follows Hig (Jacob Elordi), a pilot surviving in a remote airport alongside a grumpy ex-Marine named Bangley (Josh Brolin). When Hig intercepts a mysterious radio transmission, he embarks on a perilous journey across the desolate landscape in search of a better life, leaving behind the safety of their fortified base.

    We discuss whether Scott's focus on character drama over action pays off, why the film's optimistic ending feels a bit out of place in a bleak post-apocalyptic setting, and how we would personally survive if society collapsed tomorrow.
