Joker
Arthur Fleck longs for connection, but is unfortunately left alone in a crowd – even as he walks the crowded streets of Gotham City – where he is disregarded by society, and worse, has encounters violent thugs. He wears two masks – the one he paints for his day job as a clown, and the guise he projects in a futile attempt to feel like he’s part of the world around him. As time goes, Fleck begins a slow descent into madness as he transforms into the criminal mastermind known as the Joker.
Starring: Joaquin Phoenix, Robert De Niro, Zazie Beetz
Genre: Crime, Drama, Thriller (15+)
Avengement
Cain is a prisoner who is granted temporary release to go see his mother who is ill and dying. He arrives too late to find that his mother has already passed away. In a fit of rage, he escapes the six-man security assigned to him and decides to go after his brother, a loan shark, and the men who betrayed him after a criminal assignment. Expect a lot of blood, gore, punches, and a whole lot more.
Starring: Scott Adkins, Craig Fairbrass, Thomas Turgoose
Genre: Action, Crime, Thriller (18+)
