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.
A Most Violent Year
For fans of: Scorcese, badda bing badda boom
Avoid if: You’re not into garbage
Set in the early 1980s, this looks at a family involved in the waste industry who use good ol’ violence and corruption to move their way up the career ladder. Starring the fantastic Oscar Isaac and Jessica Chastain as the central couple, this looks like a wonderfully gritty watch.

Ex Machina
For fans of: Domhnall G
Avoid if: You’re afraid robots will take over the world
Our own Domhnall Gleeson plays a computer programmer who wins a competition and gets invited to hang out with his boss (Oscar Isaac, again) … who happens to have created a sexy AI lady (here, why are they always sexy robot ladies?). You can just imagine the sort of things that happen next. Written and directed by Alec Garland (28 Days Later/Sunshine).

The Gambler
For fans of: Money money money, got to have it
Avoid if: You’re more of a Marky Mark fan
Mark Wahlberg is a high stakes gambler AND an English professor, which is quite a mix indeed. he owes a load of money, gets involved with some underworld figures, and falls in love with a student. Standard.
