Cinema guide: Ed Sheeran makes unlikely cameo as drug addict in goofy gang action-comedy and more

  • 8 months ago
New film BlackBerry explores the incredible growth and tragic collapse of the world's first smartphone and how it smashed huge enterprises before surrendering to Silicon Valley's fiercely competitive companies. It's incredibly well received by critics and audiences alike, scoring a massive 98% approval on rotten tomatoes.

Next - Jennifer Saunders and Ed Sheeran both make unlikely appearances in Sumotherhood, a goofball gang action comedy. When Riko and Kane need money, they decide to rob a megastar in a nightclub toilet and hold up the local bank, but things don't go as planned. A misunderstanding leads them into business with one of East London's toughest firms.

And finally - a respectably rated drama set during the nineteen eighty four miners strikes. The Old Oak follows a pub landlord in a previously thriving mining community who struggles to hold onto his pub. Meanwhile, tensions rise in the town when Syrian refugees are placed in the empty houses in the community.
