first time you have been competitor mandy rice davies? darling! finally, a story that might not be a story at all, ruth? exactly. tell us about it anyway. this is prince william's air ambulance, or the one that he copilots. it does not say that he was actually in it. despite the fact they have put a photograph on him on they have put a photograph on him on the front. william's helicopter split second from lethal drone crash. he was probably at home changing nappies. that is almost certainly true. otherwise this would not be called exclusive... if william himself had been a split second from a lethal drone crash, i think the bbc might have already changed its bulletins by now. i suspect there is slightly less to this story than meets the eye. does that happen a lot? do journalists sometimes slightly write stories up a bit more? well, got to have

something to put on the front page. to have something to put the headlines. indeed. that is journalism. it certainly made us stop, look and read. yes, full marks. but we still haven't read the inside copy. we are desperate to read the inside copy as well. you may have to wait. you might find one in your home tonight, in the cabs, as you head back. keep your eyes peeled for a late—night vendor. what is on page four? we'll tell you tomorrow when we review the papers in the morning. why then we will have a hard copies. thank you to both of you. and forget, all the front pages are online on the bbc news website, where you can get a detailed review of the papers. it is all there for you, seven days a week. and you can watch us there as well, if you really want to again, with each night's edition of the papers posted on the page shortly after we finish. ruth, john, thank you for your company this evening. i

will be back tomorrow afternoon. coming up next, the film review. hello, and welcome to the film review on bbc news. to take us through this week's cinema releases is mark kermode. hi, again, to you, mark. what do we have this week? we have life, a science—fiction movie with jake gyllenhaal. and we have a real—life tale of exploration. life. it could be anything! set in the international space station? yes. a soil sample from mars is sent back from the international space

station. they find a single cell organism, they are excited because it is proof of life on mars. then it becomes dormant. they decide, against the advice from the entire audience, to give it a bit of an electric shock and see what it does. ready. lowering oxygen, more carbon dioxide. are you sure it won't hurt it? every single cell is a muscle and nerve cell. it's in between my fingers and it's not letting go. can i make a suggestion?

can ijust go in and get him? no, we are demanding quarantine. i can do this, i can. you get the general idea. i was laughing before, but i'm not now. a great cast, life. it starts out as gravity, then turns into alien, then turns back into gravity. there is not a lot of originality, however, what it does is that it tells a story that you know. it feels like it is 85 minutes long. it zips along, it looks terrific. all the characters are best

described as thumbnail sketches. he is the scientist person, this is the person with the... it does exactly what you expect. alien was drawing on a series of other horror movies. this is nothing you haven't seen before. here's the thing, i thought this was meant to be a horrorfilm. i have noticed a smile playing on your lips. there are things in it that are creepy, i enjoyed it. you are not a fan of horror. it is tension, rather than gore.

there is a very famous moment in alien that is much more revolting than anything in this. but when that happened, nobody had ever seen that done before. it has been referred to as a popcorn movie for very good reason. i enjoyed it, but it is not at all original. moving on to power rangers. if you have a naff 80's tv franchise, you just reboot it now. what you have is this rebooting, it is basically the breakfast club in a superhero movie. it addresses things like autism, lgbtiq issues, which is interesting given a huge amount of the target

audience for power rangers are younger than 12. the absolute bottom age is eight. already today i have seen people asking if they can take their four —year—olds to see it. well, no. it's a weird film, it has a little bit of violence in it. they are power rangers, they kill people. it is less leering than transformers, less fun than real steel, it's too long and it makes no sense but it wasn't terrible. it wasjust kind of, 0k. that's what power rangers looks like when you stick it up on a big screen.

it is innocuous and surprisingly unremarkable. i love it when you tell me something and i know it could just go on a poster, this week it is, it's not terrible. now, the lost city of z. yes, percy fawcett‘s early 20th—century explorations. the man who was described as having made an unfortunate choice of ancestors. he is told that if he goes on this exploration, it will restore his great family name. the more he explores, he discovers that this is what he wants to do with his life. however, where he is travelling to is dangerous and surprising. get your concertina! you want me to get it?

yes, come and sing with me. are you ready? # we're soldiers of the dream, my lad...# amigos! does that help, the singing? yes, it does. there are moments that are very strange. robert pattinson is almost unrecognisable. it is bautifully shot. it is beautifully shot.

it is slow and oddly elliptical. more so than most mainstream audiences will likely be able to cope with. there are individual moments in it that are really striking. there is a moment when they come across a musical being in the jungle which reminds me of fitzcarraldo. there is also a sequence in it which is reminiscent of another werner herzog film. it was strangely funny. it has been five days since i saw it and it has lingered in my mind. there are images that are very arresting, it is beautiful. a terrific performance by sienna miller, his wife who is left behind in england. she really made something of this role. she is the toughest character in this movie. it is flawed but it aims high. i would rather see something aim high and fail in certain areas than something which felt

like franchise fodder. it has a strangely old—fashioned feeling to it. there are moments, there is a dream sequence which is oddly reminiscent of the end of 2001. that is not something you would expect from a film like this. it is really unusual, definitely flawed but very interesting. ok, the best film? get out. the best way of describing and is, it is kind of a horror movie. a young african—american meets his girlfriend's family and there is something creepy underneath. it's about post—racial america. it is sharp and scary when it needs to be. i know you're not a horror film fan, but it's a thriller. it's not horror, it's a thriller.

it is a horror film, but it's a thriller. you'll enjoy it. and a united kingdom? based on a true story. his relationships outrage the government. it takes the personal and the political and puts them together in a way which is completely understandable and enjoyable, but also tells a great story. thank you very much. see you next week. a quick reminder that you can find all the film news you would ever want online on our website. you can find all of our previous programmes on iplayer as well. that's all for this week, thanks very much for watching. at this time of year when you have
