★★★½☆
Every You Every Me is Michael Fetter Nathansky's German romance about a factory worker re-examining her marriage. Inventive, tender and a little too schematic.
★★★★☆
Everything Everywhere All at Once is the Daniels' multiverse action comedy about a laundromat owner and her family. Exhausting at times, but inventive and moving.
★★★½☆
Exhuma is Jang Jae-hyun's Korean occult thriller about a shaman, a geomancer and a cursed family grave. A superb first half and a star cast outweigh a messier second.
★★★★½
Extraordinary Attorney Woo is a Korean legal dramedy about a brilliant autistic rookie lawyer, blending clever case-of-the-week puzzles with a big, tender heart.
★★★★☆
Extraordinary You is a clever Korean fantasy romance about a schoolgirl who discovers she is a minor character in a comic, and sets out to rewrite her own story.
★★★½☆
Face/Off is John Woo's gloriously absurd 1997 action thriller in which John Travolta and Nicolas Cage swap faces. Operatic, overlong and hugely entertaining.
★★★★☆
Fallout is Prime Video's post-apocalyptic take on the video games: funny, gory and faithful to their retro-futurist spirit, with Walton Goggins stealing the show.
★★★★½
Familiar Touch is Sarah Friedland's gentle drama about a retired cook moving into memory care, anchored by a superb Kathleen Chalfant. Humane, precise and moving.
★★★☆☆
Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them takes the Wizarding World to 1926 New York. The creature comedy charms; the franchise-building plot drags it down.
★★☆☆☆
Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald moves the Wizarding World to 1920s Paris and buries its charm under lore. Handsome, crowded and rarely magical.
★★☆☆☆
Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore steadies the series with Mads Mikkelsen's Grindelwald and a lighter tone, but the story still lacks magic or stakes.
★★★★½
Farewell My Concubine is Chen Kaige's sweeping Beijing opera epic, a story of two performers whose lifelong bond is tested by half a century of Chinese upheaval.
★★★★☆
Fearless is Ronny Yu's martial arts biopic of Huo Yuanjia, with Jet Li as a champion who must learn humility before he can fight for something bigger than pride.
★★★★½
Fight Club is David Fincher's savage, darkly funny satire of consumer life and male rage, and more than two decades on it remains as sharp as it is misunderstood.
★★★★☆
Fight for My Way is a scrappy Korean romantic comedy about two childhood friends near thirty who chase abandoned dreams, and discover their friendship means more.
★★★½☆
Firaaq is Nandita Das's ensemble drama set a month after the 2002 Gujarat violence, tracing how ordinary people live with fear, guilt and silence over one day.
★★★½☆
Fist of Fury is the 1972 Hong Kong kung fu classic in which Bruce Lee avenges his teacher in foreign-dominated Shanghai, a crude but electrifying showcase of star power.
★★★½☆
The Five Venoms is Chang Cheh's 1978 Shaw Brothers cult favourite, a kung fu mystery built around five masked fighters, five animal styles and one question: who is who?
★★★½☆
Flash Point is Wilson Yip's lean Hong Kong cop thriller starring Donnie Yen, a thin story redeemed by one of the most ferocious fight finales of its decade.
★★★★★
Fleabag is Phoebe Waller-Bridge's filthy, heartbreaking British tragicomedy about a grieving woman who confides in the audience, and its second season is near perfect.
★★★★☆
Flow is Gints Zilbalodis's wordless Latvian animated fable about a cat surviving a great flood, and its Oscar-winning images carry more feeling than most scripts.
★★★★½
Flower of Evil is a gripping Korean thriller about a husband hiding a dark past from his detective wife, anchored by Lee Joon-gi and Moon Chae-won at their best.
★★★★★
Forrest Gump is Robert Zemeckis's sweeping tragicomic odyssey through postwar America, anchored by Tom Hanks as a gentle Alabama man who never stops loving Jenny.
★★★☆☆
Free Fire is Ben Wheatley's 1970s warehouse shootout comedy, a single gunfight stretched to feature length with a sharp cast, great banter and diminishing returns.
