Operation Mincemeat (12A)

Colin Firth heads up an impressive British cast in the extraordinary true story of two intelligence officers who use a corpse and false papers to outwit German troops during WWII. Fusing multiple strands and moods - tense, romantic, thrilling, unexpectedly funny, and endlessly surprising - it tells a richly human story of the soldiers we seldom see, who fight a different kind of war in shadows and deception, haunted by the knowledge that certainty and guarantee of success are nowhere to be found.

Benedetta (18)

Sex, power and faith collide in cinematic provocateur Paul Verhoven’s salacious, shockingly irreverent and wickedly entertaining tale of religious obsession and carnal sin. Loosely based on a true story, Benedetta Carlini was a 17th century nun who rose to fame for her power to perform miracles, which were later dismissed as acts of heresy. When a new young novice arrives at the convent, Benedetta’s disturbing religious visions become entwined with illicit erotic desires, causing a scandal that threatens to shake the Church to its very core.

The Lost City (12A)

Recalling classic adventure movies Raiders of the Lost Ark and Romancing the Stone, The Lost City follows reclusive author Loretta Sage who writes about exotic places in her popular adventure novels that feature a handsome cover model named Alan.

While on tour promoting her new book with Alan, Loretta gets kidnapped by an eccentric billionaire who hopes she can lead him to an ancient city's lost treasure from her latest story.

Determined to prove he can be a hero in real life and not just on the pages of her books, Alan sets off to rescue her.
