With highlights including the god of thunder and the king of horror, we've got some belters coming up on the big screen this month...
Thor: Love and Thunder
Thor. Huh. Yeah. What is he good for? One hell of a big screen experience, it turns out. Returning for his eighth outing as the god of thunder, Chris Hemsworth always brings charm, emotion and unrivalled line delivery to his most iconic role - and with Taika Waititi, director of Thor: Ragnarok, behind the camera again this time, you’re bound to love Love and Thunder.
Thor: Love and Thunder is showing at Arc Beeston, Broadway, Cineworld, Savoy and Showcase from Thursday 7 July
The Gray Man
Sure, you could stay at home and watch this on Netflix - but where’s the fun in that? A globe-trotting action epic, starring some of the biggest names in Hollywood - including Ryan Gosling and Chris Evans - and directed by Avengers Endgame duo Joe and Anthony Russo, this is one to watch on the biggest screen possible. And, luckily for you, Showcase are giving you the chance to do exactly that.
The Gray Man is showing at Showcase from Friday 15 July
Where the Crawdads Sing
Take a best-selling literary phenomenon and combine it with one of the most exciting British talents in cinema right now and what do you get? Where the Crawdads Sing, of course. Telling a haunting tale of a young woman cast out of society in a truly unique, strange way, this promises shocks, thrills and everything in between.
Where the Crawdads Sing is showing at Broadway, Cineworld and Showcase from Friday 22 July
Psycho (4K Restoration)
It doesn’t get much more classic than Alfred Hitchcock’s 1960 film Psycho, and this month you can experience it in all its big screen glory at the Savoy Cinema. As part of the Loft Movie Theatre's ongoing film club, expect a screen full of fellow movie lovers and an extra thirteen seconds of previously uncut footage. One of the most influential horrors of all time, this is unmissable for any film geeks out there.
Psycho is showing at Savoy on Monday 25 July, as part of The Loft Movie Theatre
Fire of Love
It’s not often a film gets 100% on Rotten Tomatoes, but that’s exactly what Fire of Love has achieved so far. This powerful, touching documentary tells the story of scientific and romantic partners Katia and Maurice Krafft, who died in a volcanic explosion after dedicating their lives to studying the phenomena.
Fire of Love is showing at Broadway from Friday 29 July
