Dhurandhar: The Revenge (2026)

Aditya Dhar · Action, Thriller · 3h 49m

India · Hindi · Mar 19, 2026

65%
Celluloid Score Recommended

Critics split at 68% while Indian audiences stormed to 92% — Dhurandhar became India's #1 H1 2026 box-office juggernaut on sheer spectacle, and IMDb's midyear trending list can't keep it off the homepage despite thin Metacritic coverage.

A disgraced intelligence operative returns from exile to dismantle the cartel that destroyed his family — a mission that spans continents, decades, and a runtime long enough to earn intermission applause in Mumbai multiplexes. Aditya Dhar's Dhurandhar sequel trades arthouse restraint for maximalist set pieces, patriotic swagger, and Ranveer Singh operating at full wattage.

Sirāt (2026)

Oliver Laxe · Drama · 1h 55m

Spain · Spanish · Mar 7, 2026

83%
Celluloid Score Recommended

Oliver Laxe's desert odyssey earned a 92% critic swell and Metascore 86 placement on midyear arthouse lists — a rave-as-requiem that divides casual viewers but leaves festival juries and Letterboxd die-hards rapt.

A father and daughter cross the Moroccan desert chasing rumors of an underground rave that may hold the key to their grief. Oliver Laxe's Sirāt is less a plot than a trance — dust, bass lines, and the thin line between pilgrimage and oblivion — anchored by Sergi López in one of the year's most physically committed performances.
