ROUND UP
he work of the late Jóhann Jóhannsson, composer of the score for , art film (VOD, out now on BFI Player) sees Tilda Swinton impassively declaiming’s Monolith, the combination is quite hypnotic. (Blu-ray/DVD, 17 August) didn’t wow our reviewer. We said: “The characters are thin and one-note. The action scenes are visually incomprehensible. And the scripts tear though clichés like they’re on a two-forone offer… The worst Arrowverse show by some margin.” Extras: deleted scenes, a gag reel and highlights of four DC show Comic-Con panels. A bonus disc features all five episodes. Sadly we found out about (Blu-ray, out now) too late to take another look. This 1984 movie stars Helen Slater as Superman’s cuz, who heads to Earth as the lifeforce of Argo City finds its way into the hands of Faye Dunaway’s witch. Back in the day, we said: “Not worthy to lick ’s big red boots. Slater – surrounded by a gaggle of A-listers – tries her best, but seems lost in the company of these heavyweights.” This two-disc set features the 125-minute international version, but no theatrical cut or Director’s Cut.
