BIG BAD WOLVES (18 cert, 110 min)

Dir: Aharon Keshales, Navot Papushado; Starring: Lior Ashkenazi, Tzahi Grad, Doval'e Glickman, Rotem Keinan

The Israeli revenge thriller Big Bad Wolves arrives on these shores with a full-throated endorsement from Quentin Tarantino, who called it the best picture of the year. It resoundingly isn't. Read The Telegraph's Big Bad Wolves review.

CARRIE (15 cert, 100 min)

Dir: Kimberly Peirce; stars: Chloë Grace Moretz, Julianne Moore, Gabriella Wilde, Portia Doubleday, Ansel Elgort, Judy Greer

You'll find yourself yearning for Brian De Palma's 1976 version of Stephen King's horror novel. And yet, Kimberley Peirce's movie isn't at all stupid, and it isn't bad. Read The Telegraph's Carrie review.

DAY OF THE FLOWERS (15 cert, 99 min)

Dir: John Roberts; Starring: Eva Birthistle, Charity Wakefield, Carlos Acosta, Phyllis Logan

File this comic drama in the cupboard marked "at least they must have had fun making it", alongside the recent Status Quo film set in Fiji, and then throw away the key. Read The Telegraph's Day of the Flowers review.

FREE BIRDS (U cert, 91 min)

Dir: Jimmy Hayward; Starring: Owen Wilson, Woody Harrelson, Amy Poehler, George Takei, Colm Meaney

The film's two main characters are turkeys, although they appear to have been drawn by people whose knowledge of the species begins and ends with a bag of frozen Twizzlers – furiously unfunny. Read The Telegraph's Free Birds review.

JEUNE ET JOLIE (18 cert, 94 min)

Dir: François Ozon; Starring: Marine Vacth, Géraldine Pailhas, Frédéric Pierrot

What a curious film François Ozon brings us here. It feels like a puzzle with no solution. Why is 17-year-old Isabelle (Marine Vacth), who seems to have grown up in perfect bourgeois contentment, driven to prostitute herself – literally – for the Paris raincoat brigade? Read The Telegraph's Jeune et Jolie review.

LEVIATHAN (12A cert, 110 min)

Dirs: Lucien Castaing-Taylor, Verena Paravel

This extraordinarily weird and arresting film is a documentary of sorts – it was entirely shot on a fishing trawler off the Massachusetts coast, mostly at night. But it's really a radical experiment in non-fiction cinema – not seeking to enlighten or inform, but to disorientate us, practically to drown us, in a nightmare vision of the ocean's power. Read The Telegraph's Leviathan review.

SAVING MR BANKS (PG cert, 125 min)

Dir: John Lee Hancock; Starring: Emma Thompson, Tom Hanks, Colin Farrell, Ruth Wilson, Paul Giamatti, Bradley Whitford, Jason Schwartzman, BJ Novak, Rachel Griffiths

Disney has produced a film about the tortuous making of Mary Poppins, one of the great pictures in that studio's canon. It presents Walt Disney's struggle with PL Travers, who wrote the original books, as a kind of Norman Conquest of sweetness and charm — a flooding of songs, jelly-beans and thick Californian sunlight into the life of a brilliant but unhappy writer. Read The Telegraph's Saving Mr Banks review.
