next on bbc news, it's bbc iplayer. next on bbc news, it's the film review. once had a hello. welcome to the film review here on bbc news. we have mark kermode taking us through this week's cinema releases. we have bright burn which is horror movie meets superhero. i got it —— we have brightburn, which is a horror movie meets

superhero, we have toy story 4, a trilogy no more, and the flood, a moving drama about the refugee crisis. something for all the family. brightburn is like a dark superman. it's a very strange film, it's produced byjames gunn who made guardians of the galaxy. a couple are trying for a baby when an asteroid lands outside their home in kansas. several years later, they have an adopted son who they love very much and is hitting adolescents and starting to act up like all teenagers, but meanwhile there are a series of increasingly weird and violent events playing out around this small town. here's a clip. this come on! stupid piece of... 0k, time to go. nope? no! out of here! stop!

you saw all the references to superman, the kid's initials, everyone thinks of clark kent. there are lots of individual elements which remind you of the superman story, it's like man of steel but with a darker twist. there are also influences like carrie, a young girl with telekinetic powers. it also reminded me of an old episode of the twilight zone called it's a good life where a community are in fear of a child in control of everything, but what is impressive is how well and how long it managed to sustain just being a drama about two parents

who desperately want a son and now they have one, but there is a secret in his past. elizabeth banks is terrific as the mother who just wants to look after her son and wants to protect him despite the fact that she knows he's not like other children. it's not for everybody, a couple of people came out of it saying, "i didn't get that at all," but i liked the way it played with the superman mythology. i'm not a big comic book fan, but i knew enough to understand where it was going and i thought it was strange and quirky and there were moments in it that were quite nasty and moments that were quite funny. i'd also say if you are really interested in a sideways glance at superman mythology, remember the old film punch—drunk love? that is an allegory of superman as well so brightburn makes a good double bill with it. it's an intriguing idea, to turn the superman story on its head.

one of the tag lines is, "he's not here to save the world," and i like that. what if an adolescent had powers and what if it wasn't working out well? i like the fact it has horror elements, it has a super hero elements, but it also feels satirical and like it's unpicking something with which we are all familiar and making it scary and challenging. sounds intriguing. the latest toy story, number four. my problem in advance was that the original trilogy were perfect and the end of the third one is like the end of winnie the pooh when christopher robin says goodbye. a trilogy is never enough for hollywood! suddenly toy story 4 and i thought, really? i went in with a heavy heart and thought we were retreading a certain amount of ground. the child goes to kindergarten and the toys are left in the cupboard but things pick up when the young child makes a new friend, literally makes a toy out of a spork and pipe cleaners which then becomes animated

but thinks it is trash and there is an existential question, is it a toy or trash? then we meet up with an old acquaintance and suddenly the drama goes off into a whole different area and suddenly it found its feet again. i think what's interesting about toy story 4, nobody was more trepidatious about it than me, was once it got going it had me laughing and crying like the first three but also of all the toy story films, this is the one that's actually about the toys. the toy story mythology is about children and parents and separation anxiety. this sounds pretentious, but it was closer to the kind of concerns of steven spielberg's ai in which the robot child wonders whether or not it is a real boy, the pinocchio story. i thought it was original

and unexpected, there were a good 20 minutes at the beginning when i thought it was retreading old ground but once it got going, i was back there and pixar cast their spell again. it's really funny and very moving and i laughed and i cried. i admit by the end, we did need another one. i really thought we didn't. i was wrong to be trepidatious. i don't think i've used that word before! i've probably made it up! if you have, it is now in the dictionary. the flood is about an immigration officer who gets a high—profile asylum case. this is a topical story with refugees and asylum seekers. lena headey is an immigration officer who has a reputation for being hard—nosed, she's heard lots and lots of stories but she is unmoved by them and what her superiors like about her is she is not sentimental, she is basically the person who will deal with things

in an unemotional and rather callous way. here's a clip. if you passed through any other countries prior to your arrival, why did you not apply for asylum there? i don't know. when did you arrive in europe? i don't know. it was dark. let me help you out. where did you arrive in europe? greece. she seems to be very cold and then what happens is she gets presented with a case and she starts doing the same thing with him,

she is told to process it quickly, but she starts to hear his story and then we start to see his story of his journey and the trauma of his journey in flashback and we start to learn things about her that she has troubles in her own life, that she's getting divorced, is separated from her child and has a drinking problem. she starts to see the story from the other side, she starts to feel empathy because up until this point she has been trying to avoid it. it reminded me of a film from 1990 called journey of hope. the subject matter is kind of different but the aim of the story was to make you see what the journey looks like from the other side and i think this actually manages to do that, occasionally the drama is a little too on the nose and contrived with how itjuggles its mirroring situations, but i found myself very gripped by the performances, they are terrific and it's got a lot of heart and it's made

with real commitment. i think it's also very technically well made, the way in which the music is used to distinguish flashbacks from stuff we are seeing in the present day, the way you can feel the two worlds are seeping into each other, i thought it was very intriguing and very moving. it reminds me of up in the air with george clooney where he flies around the united states sacking people and suddenly starts to feel empathy for the people he is a sacking. best out at the moment? dirty god. i know it is playing in a small number of cinemas but it's a terrific movie about a woman who survived an acid attack and rebuild her life and it has a star making performance by vicki knight. in ten years' time, vicki knight will be part of the furniture as far as acting is concerned. we will all know she is a very versatile actor. this is where it began. she is astonishing, she is a real star in the making. you heard it here first.

best dvd? the kid who would be king. it reminded me of a children's film foundation movie which we used to get in the 19705, but with harry potter special effects. a modern day kid finds king arthur's sword. he has to get his enemies and bullies to reunite. i thought it was really enjoyable. it didn't do well in the cinema, i think it should have done better and i hope it will find a dvd audience. it's really charming and its message is, you know, we've all got to just pull together and work together and the young people are the future and we have faith in them. it's wonderful, it's a film with its heart is really in the right place. not a bad message to end on!

mark, thank you very much indeed. that's it for this week. thank you for watching. good evening. a realfeel of summer in the airthis good evening. a realfeel of summer in the air this week. things turning pretty warm and fairly humid as well. but, there will be two sides with through the week. we start with a stormy side. could be some nasty thunderstorms develop in the next 36 hours. we won't all see them but where we do, increasing risk of flash flooding. the sunny side is summer flash flooding. the sunny side is summer returns flash flooding. the sunny side is summer returns for flash flooding. the sunny side is summer returns for the second half of the week with most places dry, blue skies, and it is here where we will see high temperatures, particularly through friday and into saturday. are there at the moment, humid areas pushing up ahead of this weather system which is bringing rain across southern and western areas. it is in northern ireland, north wales, northern england and through to the north wind —— midlands at the moment and think flashes of lightning into oxon, leicestershi re flashes of lightning into oxon, leicestershire and lincolnshire over the last 20 minutes. that area of

rain, with occasional thunderstorms, will push northwards through the night and could drop a bit of rain ina night and could drop a bit of rain in a short space of rain —— sought — make short space of time. the brisk south—easterly wind. further south, winds are light. 18 degrees the starting temperature in london. sunshine to go with it, feeling hot quickly, but the atmosphere is primed to produce storms. it will be individual, isolated storms with most individual, isolated storms with m ost pla ces individual, isolated storms with most places staying dry. this is worst—case scenario, intense, widespread storms putting northwards across england in particular. even if you do see them, we will see some sunshine in their wake, sunshine across the south, it will feel hot, not as hot further north thanks to the breeze in the cloud. more humid across scotland and northern ireland overnight. he will see storms in northern scotland through the night and potentially more impactful storms putting their way out of france and into parts of central and eastern england in 20 ——in particular. a bit of question as to

how far they will go. frequent lightning, gusty winds, potential for flash flooding, that will be a problem for the tuesday morning rush hour as they worked their way north. 0ne hour as they worked their way north. one or two isolated showers and may bea one or two isolated showers and may be a rumble of thunder in its wake. afair bit be a rumble of thunder in its wake. a fair bit of cloud, get the sunshine coming through, it will feel very warm, even 22— 23 celsius in parts of western scotland. a slightly fresher feel for northern areas and may one or two showers but high—pressure building in, clearing away some of the cloud, a lot more sunshine to end the week and with winds flowing clockwise around, the high—pressure, we will be tapping into very warm air in western europe. may be above 30 celsius in the southern england as we finish the southern england as we finish the week. bye for now.
