Empire strikes back even better

-

The first Star Wars Battlefron­t was a dream come true for wannabe Jedis but the lack of a story mode was disappoint­ing.

However, that’s been addressed this time around with a single-player campaign and cross-era characters — and locations from the original, prequel and sequel trilogies.

And this time, instead of having to buy a Season Pass to access DLC, the game will be expanded with free DLC provided to all players with a free EA account.

Added playable characters include Darth Maul, Rey, Kylo Ren, Finn, Lando Calrissian, Chewbacca, Captain Phasma and Yoda.

Impressed, be you will... Sofia Coppola finest flick since Lost in Translatio­n sees her put a fresh spin on Don Siegel’s 1971 drama.

Colin Farrell’s wounded soldier is given refuge during the Civil War at Virginia’s Seminary For Young Ladies and his arrival results in several unsettling consequenc­es.

Farrell does a decent job, but he’s outshone by an excellent female cast, including Nicole Kidman, Kirsten Dunst and Elle Fanning.

It’s hard to know who to root for – and trust – as seemingly innocent nods and glances and conversati­ons develop into something more.

The melting pot of sexual tension explodes in a gripping finale that’ll make you think twice about knocking on a door looking for help.
