High Rollers
If you enjoyed Cash Out, then its sequel is a must-see. Travolta is back as the smooth-talking Mason Goddard. This time the stakes are higher than ever before!

Gladiator II
It's been 25 years since Russell Crowe graced the screens as Maximus Decimus Meridius in Gladiator. The long-awaited sequel is finally here and has an all-star cast including Pedro Pascal, Paul Mescal, Denzel Washington, and Joseph Quinn. Sixteen years after the death of Marcus Aurelius, Lucius Verus (Mescal) must take on new rivals and return the glory of Rome to its people and honour the legacy of Roman general turned gladiator Maximus Decimus Meridius. The cinematography is epic. Janty Yates, the costume designer from the first movie, tailored the costumes once again and whisks you back to the Roman era. The battle is on in Gladiator II on Sunday 8 June at 20:05.
Fun fact: Russell Crowe’s character, Maximus Decimus Meridius, is seen in flashbacks from the first film.
Absolution
The king of action is back at it again. The legendary Liam Neeson drives this action thriller as an ex-gangster who sets out to redeem his past and make amends with his children.
