Best films out now

Here's our pick of the best films out now in London's cinemas

A Ghost Story ★★★★★

One review has described Casey Affleck's performance as 'a bravura feat of understated acting'. Well, he's concealed under a bedsheet for most of A Ghost Story – you can't get more understated than that. There are plenty of other reasons to watch this art-house chiller from the director of Ain't Them Bodies Saints, also starring Rooney Mara.

Atomic Blonde ★★★★★

Pow! Biff! Smack! There are probably some lines of dialogue in Atomic Blonde too, but that's not really the point, is it? Charlize Theron stars as a jaw-breaking superspy running around '80s Berlin, the latest and shiniest incarnation of the kind of action heroine we love.

Tom of Finland ★★★★★

Touko Laaksonan fought the Nazis in WWII and drew them (or at least men who resembled them) in the nude. His playful erotic cartoons, full of thrusting Übermenschen in black leather, inspired generations of gay men. Tom of Finland is the biopic he's needed for a long time.
