1) WONDER WOMAN

Our take: “Brimming with hope, heart and humanity, ‘Wonder Woman’ is funny, moving and breath-taking all at once, and lives up to the hyperbole of its character’s name by being simply the best DCEU movie by far”

2) BEAUTY AND THE BEAST

Our take: “An entertaining movie that is safe enough for the family (that gay moment is really quite discreet) but just don’t expect it to be as magical as the original version”

3) JUSTICE LEAGUE

Our take: “Fun, amusing, charming, thrilling and with moments of unexpected poignancy, 'Justice League' kicks off the league of DC superheroes on a rousing high”

4) LOGAN

Our take: “Not your average superhero action film, Logandelves deep into the titular character’s psyche on the last of his heroic journeys. Don’t miss this chance to say farewell to Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine in theatres”

5) FAST AND FURIOUS 8

Our take: “Loud, over-the-top and utterly nonsensical, but also inventively conceived and impeccably executed, this latest 'Fast and Furious' chapter is everything fans want to see - and have come to love - about the franchise”

8) IT

Our take: “Warm, funny and poignant, 'IT' is a beautifully told story of the joys, confusions and fears of childhood, and therefore better at being a classic Stephen King coming-of-age tale than a supernatural horror”

9) THE MUMMY

Our take: “Incoherent plot developments and devices fall flat, along with tired character profiles and theories. The focus is off and the dark universe future stays murky”

10) ALIEN COVENANT

Our take: “Like the poetic android’s many experimental hybrids, this story is the same - disappointingly lifeless”
