The Upside
Release date: 1 February 2019
Kevin Hart and Bryan Cranston make an unlikely duo; and that’s exactly the point! This heart-string-pulling comedy drama pits together Hart, an unemployed and foul-mouthed former criminal, and Cranston’s millionaire businessman who is also a quadriplegic. Surprisingly, an unconventional friendship forms between the two, and there are a lot of light-hearted moments to be had as they go on multiple adventures together.
Holmes and Watson
Release date: 8 February 2019
Step Brothers and Talledega Nights stars John C. Reilly and Will Ferrell reunite – this time, though, they’re playing two characters with celebrated histories themselves: Sherlock Holmes and John Watson. When there’s a murder in Buckingham Palace, it’s up to the pair to put their extensive skills and intellects to the task of solving the case in four days – or Sherlock’s old nemesis Moriarty will kill the Queen. If you’ve enjoyed Ferrell’s comedic brand in the past, this one should have you keeling over.
Alita: Battle Angel
Release date: 14 February 2019
Based on a beloved manga, Alita: Battle Angel is James Cameron’s take on a cyberpunk-inspired story which follows a robot named Alita, who wakes up in a world she doesn’t recognise and with little memory of who she is. Thankfully, she is taken in by a kindhearted doctor (the brilliant Christoph Waltz) that realises inside this mysterious cyborg is actually the remnant of a young woman with an unusual past. Despite the doctor’s attempts to protect her, Alita’s past eventually catches up to her and her full potential and abilities come breaking through. Directed by Avatar‘s James Cameron, this one is sure to be filled with eye-popping moments and some epic set-pieces.
