    Derek vs Derek review – farmers go head to head in rewilding rivalry with real bite (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Two Devon neighbours face off over the future of the countryside in this warm, wry documentary about farming, conservation and some troublesome wild boar This ebulliently accessible but never tacky British documentary finds a delightfully sneaky way to explore debates around environmental damage, agriculture and the countryside without ever being preachy, dry or patronising. The trick is to find engaging characters who happen to have opposing points of view, and while by the end most viewers wou

    Child review – jump scares abound in twisty organ transplant fable that keeps horror at its heart (opens the original)

    This Luxembourg-made movie about a couple who venture east to save their son features some impressive film-making Stippled with first-world guilt about income inequality even between fellow EU member states, this Luxembourg-made horror sprinkles a bit of liberal fairy dust over what is otherwise a pretty straight-up, if twisty, horror setup: a grunting, inarticulate and physically disfigured big baddie stalks the normie protagonists who shouldn’t have come round these impoverished parts.
