The Odyssey, the biggest film of the year in every sense, has rolled into town. Christopher Nolan's epic has been receiving rapturous reviews from critics and packing them in at the cinemas on its opening weekend; now the CineSkinny team weigh in.
And in terms of this week's theme, we were slightly uninspired, but we did notice that the Earth was now over halfway round its yearly rotation of the sun. Therefore, we thought it was a good time to take a little stock of film in 2026 and pick out our favourite movies from the year so far.
