Top 5 Films To Watch This Month

Here’s our pick of the top 5 films to watch this month, from the comfort of your home or immersed on the big screen. We’ve narrowed it down so you can spend less time scrolling and more time watching.

Nosferatu - Available in Cinemas

Robert Eggers’s Nosferatu is a haunting reimagining of FW Murnau’s 1922 silent classic, dripping with gothic atmosphere and macabre sensuality. Set in the 1830s, it follows Thomas Hutter (Nicholas Hoult) as he travels to Transylvania, unknowingly unleashing the vampiric Count Orlok (a chilling Bill Skarsgård). Meanwhile, Ellen (Lily-Rose Depp), Hutter’s new bride, endures visions of dread and a psychic connection to the ancient evil that invades her dreams.

Eggers’s meticulous world-building, from ornate dialogue to shadow-drenched cinematography, creates an immersive nightmare. Depp’s performance anchors the film with vulnerability and intensity, while the film’s striking imagery and Robin Carolan’s eerie score amplify the creeping terror. Nosferatu is not just a retelling but a visceral, unforgettable gothic experience.

A Real Pain - Available in Cinemas

Jesse Eisenberg’s A Real Pain is a whip-smart blend of mismatched buddy comedy and heartfelt road movie that explores family ties, generational trauma, and the weight of history. Following Jewish-American cousins David (Eisenberg) and Benji (Kieran Culkin) on a journey to Poland to honor their late grandmother, the film deftly balances humor and pathos. Eisenberg’s script crackles with sharp, unpredictable dialogue, while his direction strikes a delicate balance between quick-witted comedy and poignant moments of emotional resonance.

Culkin delivers a career-defining performance as Benji, a gregarious but deeply troubled figure whose bravado masks profound pain, while Eisenberg’s anxious and restrained David provides the perfect foil. Their dynamic, both loving and conflicted, is the heart of the film, capturing the complexities of family relationships. With a Chopin-infused score and a brisk 90-minute runtime, A Real Pain finds depth in its simplicity, culminating in a raw, unforgettable final scene that lingers long after the credits roll.
