WHICH NEW MOVIE release is worth the price of a cinema ticket this weekend?

We’re here to help you decide just that, with these trailers.

Earth to Echo

For fans of: Sci fi, kids getting their own back

Avoid if: You’re a bully

Kids with a penchant for mystery and sci-fi might enjoy this – a group of misfits find an alien creature out in the country… and discover a world beyond their tiny town. Oh, and a whole lot of trouble.

The Purge: Anarchy

Universal Pictures Universal Pictures

For fans of: Lawlessness

Avoid if: You crave security

We do love this concept (even if it is terrifying): for one night of the year, total lawlessness reigns. But what if the powers-that-be actually use the event as an excuse to rid the streets of ‘undesirables’, and if humans really were out to behave even worse than we could imagine?

Hercules: The Thracian Wars

For fans of: Big muscles

Avoid if: You can tell what the Rock is cookin’

Is that…? Yep, it’s The Rock, aka Dwayne Johnson, who plays Hercules.  Though an adaptation of a Radical Comics series, this trailer looks a bit guff. Bonus points for Queens of The Stone Age on the soundtrack however.
