Mission: Impossible – Fallout
Rufty-tufty Tom Cruise returns for his sixth bout of impossible missioning
Mission: Impossible – Fallout is your big blockbuster this week, with Hotel Transylvania 3 for the kiddies. Both are released in 2D and 3D formats. Previewing from Thursday is this month’s Marvel flick, Ant-Man and the Wasp – again in 2D and 3D. As usual, some multiplexes are offering ultra-keen nerds the opportunity to see this one at one minute past midnight.
It’s also Cinema Rediscovered weekend, with a huge programme of archive gems plus free outdoor screenings of Black Panther and Flash Gordon.
On the event cinema front, the intriguing Kaiser: The Greatest Footballer Never to Play Football gets just the one screening and, if you really must, the Love Island final is beamed live to the Vue Cribbs Causeway.
