- With STUART CHANDLER

Greed (2019, Sky 15)

Steve Coogan partners up once again with Michael Winterbott­om (The Trip series, 24 Hour Party People) for a thinly-veiled satire on the super-rich.

Bad Boys for Life (2020, Sky 15)

What you gonna do? The Bad Boys Mike Lowrey (Will Smith) and Marcus Burnett (Martin Lawrence) are back together for one last ride in the highly- anticipate­d third outing in the explosive action-comedy series. Out now on Sky Cinema.

Soul (PG)

Soul is a wildly imaginativ­e and deeply moving meditation on humanity from the computer animation wizards at Pixar, which tackles abstract concepts – mortality, depression, grief, alienation – with a playful sense of humour. Streaming exclusivel­y on Disney+ now.

Wonder Woman 1984 (12A)

Patty Jenkins returns to the director’s chair for the eagerlyawa­ited sequel to the highest grossing film of all time solely helmed by a woman. As the title suggests, Wonder Woman 1984 is set during the final stretch of the Cold War when tensions remain high between America and the Soviet Union. Premium VOD from January 16.

Mank (12)

1930s Hollywood is re-evaluated through the eyes of scathing social critic and alcoholic screenwrit­er Herman J. Mankiewicz as he races to finish the screenplay of Citizen Kane for Orson Welles. On Netflix.
