One Battle After Another
The Smashing Machine
Juror #2 (streaming)
It's a very adversarial week for film! Revolutionaries and military men slug it out in the excellent One Battle After Another, the gruelling sport of mixed martial arts is front and centre in Dwayne Johnson's latest film, and a juror must battle his conscience in a film worth staying at home to stream.
