From comedy to fast cars, it's movie time

From the latest Wes Anderson spectacle The Phoenician Scheme to the powerful British drama Lollipop, plus the adrenaline-fuelled F1 and family favourite Lilo & Stitch, there's something for every film lover.

Wes Anderson's The Phoenician Scheme follows Zsa-zsa Korda (Benicio Del Toro), a roguish millionaire and father of ten - nine sons and a nun, Liesel (Mia Threapleton). When Liesel is unexpectedly named sole heir to his estate, the estranged pair reunite. As Korda launches a bold new venture, they face threats from rival tycoons, terrorists, and assassins. The stellar cast includes Riz Ahmed, Tom Hanks, Bryan Cranston, Scarlett Johansson, Benedict Cumberbatch, and more.
