NIGHT HUNTER Signature, cert 15

DVD £7.99

With his hair shaggy and sporting a beard, clean-cut Superman star Henry Cavill (pictured) doesn’t look much like a James Bond contender - but he’s tipped among many to take over Daniel Craig’s 007 mantle - in this tough thriller. He plays Marshall, a hard-asnails cop hunting a psycho who kidnaps women and locks them up in a torture dungeon, in shades of TV’s Criminal Minds. When Marshall and colleagues, bad cop Harper (Stanley Tucci) and forensic psychologi­st Rachel (Alexandra Daddario) nab their prime suspect it seems he’s got multiple personalit­ies battling for dominance and Rachel needs to get one of them talking. But have they got the wrong man? And could vanished women be out there held in other horrible boltholes? Meanwhile, twisted retired judge (Ben Kingsley) is setting traps to catch sexual predators, using a woman as live bait. What the judge does to the perverts when he captures them is eyewaterin­gly brutal. By now

BROTHERS IN ARMS Signature, cert 15

DVD £7.99

From the producer of Nightcrawl­er comes a story of cops and crime, and how wrong choices can tear a family apart and set brothers against each other.

Cal (Jai Courtney from Suicide Squad) is a by-the-book police officer who, along with his inseparabl­e group of buddies from childhood, helps eek out his cop salary as a Marine Corps reservist. Cal’s all for the badge and justice, until his tearaway younger brother Oyster (Nat Wolff pictured) gets into a rowdy bar fight and is given what Cal sees as an unfair sentence. Now he’s torn between loyalty to his natural brother and a fierce code of honour with his service you’ll have guessed, there are few nice folks involved. As always of course, vigilante films walk a fine moral line and you’ll have to make up your own mind about that. Cavill has the looks and the presence of a leading man, not a bad actor either, but needs Bond or bigger films outside Superman to make his mark. Name a Cavill superhero film. Entries to Alex Gordon, Hunter competitio­n, by November 21.
