- [*Normal People*](https://film.one/tv/normal-people.md) — 2020 · Fi1m 84 · TV-MA · 30m · Drama · on Hulu
  Lenny Abrahamson and Hettie Macdonald’s twelve-part adaptation of Sally Rooney’s novel is patient, close and unusually honest about sex and class. Paul Mescal and Daisy Edgar-Jones carry it; the people around them are drawn thinner.
- [*Suburgatory*](https://film.one/tv/suburgatory.md) — 2011 · Fi1m 70 · TV-PG · 30m · Comedy · on Netflix, Tubi
  Emily Kapnek’s sitcom about a Manhattan teenager marooned in the suburbs is quick, kind and funnier than its premise deserves, carried by Jane Levy and a blank-faced Carly Chaikin. The first season is the one to watch; the show never finds a second idea.
- [*Dollhouse*](https://film.one/tv/dollhouse.md) — 2009 · Fi1m 66 · TV-14 · 44m · Action & Adventure/Drama
  Joss Whedon’s series about people rented out with borrowed minds is slow, cautious and slightly embarrassed of itself for five episodes; then it finds its nerve, and the second season is close to the show he meant to make. Stay with it.
- [*24*](https://film.one/tv/24.md) — 2001 · Fi1m 78 · TV-14 · 45m · Action & Adventure/Drama · on Hulu
  The first season is as tense as anything television has managed: one day, one hour an episode, a phone that never rings at a good time. The later days repeat the trick with less conviction, but Kiefer Sutherland holds them together.
- [*Party Animals*](https://film.one/tv/party-animals.md) — 2007 · Fi1m 63 · 50m · Comedy
  Robert Jones and Ben Richards’s Westminster drama knows how the place works, from the pass office to the pager going off at midnight, and fills it with a young cast worth watching. It is listed as a comedy and keeps forgetting to be funny.
- [*Party Down*](https://film.one/tv/party-down.md) — 2009 · Fi1m 82 · TV-MA · Comedy · on Amazon Prime Video, Starz
  A comedy about Hollywood’s unsuccessful working the parties of the successful, drier and sadder than the premise suggests. Adam Scott and Ken Marino anchor a superb ensemble, and the 2023 return is a real third season, if a slightly tidier one.
- [*G.B.H.*](https://film.one/tv/g-b-h.md) — 1991 · Fi1m 85 · 1h 21m · Drama
  Alan Bleasdale’s seven-part drama about a city council, its preening leader and the headmaster who says no is angry, funny and frightening, and Robert Lindsay’s Michael Murray is a performance we have not stopped thinking about since. It is also long, and its conspiracy plot is its weakest part.
- [*Hi-de-Hi!*](https://film.one/tv/hi-de-hi.md) — 1980 · Fi1m 74 · 30m · Comedy
  Perry and Croft’s holiday-camp sitcom is as broad as its yellow blazers and warmer than it has any need to be. The pool gag comes round every episode; so, more surprisingly, does a real sadness about people paid to have fun.
- [*Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix*](https://film.one/film/harry-potter-and-the-order-of-the-phoenix.md) — 2007 · Fi1m 68 · PG-13 · 2h 18m · Adventure/Fantasy · on HBO Max, Peacock
  David Yates strips the longest book in the series to 138 brisk, grey minutes and hands Imelda Staunton the best villain the films have had. It is the most grown-up Potter yet and, for long stretches, the least magical.
- [*Cemetery Junction*](https://film.one/film/cemetery-junction.md) — 2010 · Fi1m 61 · R · 1h 34m · Drama/Comedy
  Gervais and Merchant’s first film is a warm, well-acted coming-of-age story set in 1970s Reading, with a fine, quiet Ralph Fiennes. It is also a story you have seen before, told exactly as you expect, and it seems to know it.
- [*Hail, Caesar!*](https://film.one/film/hail-caesar.md) — 2016 · Fi1m 72 · PG-13 · 1h 46m · Comedy/Mystery
  The Coen brothers’ Hollywood comedy is a run of near-perfect pastiches, a sailor tap number, a water ballet, a singing cowboy in a dinner jacket, strung on a kidnapping plot that hardly matters. It is slighter than it looks and warmer than it sounds.
- [*The Lego Batman Movie*](https://film.one/film/the-lego-batman-movie.md) — 2017 · Fi1m 74 · PG · 1h 44m · Animation/Action · on HBO Max
  Chris McKay’s brick-built Batman is the funniest the character has been on screen, and the first half hour is close to perfect. After that the jokes keep the same pace, the lesson is repeated, and we tired before the end.
- [*The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part*](https://film.one/film/the-lego-movie-2-the-second-part.md) — 2019 · Fi1m 63 · PG · 1h 47m · Action/Adventure
  Lord and Miller’s sequel is faster and denser than the first film, with better songs and a shape-shifting queen who steals it, but it is the same trick a second time, and it shows. Warm, tiring, and for its last quarter of an hour, moving.
- [*The Dig*](https://film.one/film/the-dig.md) — 2021 · Fi1m 68 · PG-13 · 1h 52m · Drama/History · on Netflix
  Simon Stone’s account of the Sutton Hoo dig is handsomely shot and quietly acted, with Fiennes and Mulligan doing careful, unshowy work in the trench. It is at its best down there and weakest whenever it climbs out, which in the second half is often.
- [*Official Secrets*](https://film.one/film/official-secrets.md) — 2019 · Fi1m 65 · R · 1h 52m · Thriller/History · on AMC+, Netflix, The Roku Channel
  Gavin Hood tells Katharine Gun’s story straight, with a clear head and a fine, contained Keira Knightley. It is worth an evening for that, though the film keeps handing her story to other people and never quite gets it back.
- [*No Time to Die*](https://film.one/film/no-time-to-die.md) — 2021 · Fi1m 70 · PG-13 · 2h 43m · Action/Thriller
  Daniel Craig’s fifth and final Bond is the most heartfelt of the run and the longest, and the two facts are related. The Matera and Havana sequences are as good as the series has been in years; the villain and the last hour are not.
- [*The Good Boss*](https://film.one/film/the-good-boss.md) — 2021 · Fi1m 67 · 2h 00m · Comedy/Drama · on Tubi
  Fernando León de Aranoa gives Javier Bardem a scales factory, a cardigan and a business award to chase, and Bardem does the rest. The satire around him is broad and twenty minutes too long, but he is worth the evening.
- [*The Night of the Hunter*](https://film.one/film/the-night-of-the-hunter.md) — 1955 · Fi1m 91 · 1h 33m · Crime/Drama · on The Criterion Channel, Tubi
  Charles Laughton’s only film as director is one of the strangest and best films fifties Hollywood made: a Depression fairy tale in black and white, with Robert Mitchum as a preacher we are still afraid of. The comedy is broad and the ending soft; neither matters.
- [*Weekend*](https://film.one/film/weekend.md) — 2011 · Fi1m 86 · NR · 1h 36m · Drama/Romance · on AMC+, Pluto TV
  Andrew Haigh’s second feature follows two men in Nottingham from a Friday-night pick-up to Sunday evening, and it is small, plain and mostly talk. It is also as true a British love story as we can name, though Glen speaks for his writer a little too often.
- [*Heathers*](https://film.one/film/heathers.md) — 1989 · Fi1m 80 · R · 1h 43m · Comedy/Crime · on Amazon Prime Video, Tubi
  Michael Lehmann and Daniel Waters take the American high-school comedy and poison it, and for an hour the result is as sharp and nasty as the genre has managed. It loses its nerve in the last twenty minutes, and we minded.
- [*Videodrome*](https://film.one/film/videodrome.md) — 1983 · Fi1m 82 · R · 1h 28m · Horror/Science Fiction
  David Cronenberg’s horror about a cable boss who tunes into a torture broadcast is as unsettling now as it was in 1983, for about an hour, and then the plot comes apart in his hands. See it anyway; nothing else looks like it.
- [*Children of Men*](https://film.one/film/children-of-men.md) — 2006 · Fi1m 85 · R · 1h 49m · Science Fiction/Thriller
  Alfonso Cuarón’s near-future thriller is a dystopia that looks like the news, and its long unbroken takes are as frightening as anything in the genre. The people are thinner than the world around them, which keeps it just short of the top.
- [*Memories of Murder*](https://film.one/film/memories-of-murder.md) — 2003 · Fi1m 91 · 2h 11m · Crime/Drama
  Bong Joon Ho’s second feature is a police procedural about police who cannot do the procedure, and it is one of the best films of its kind we know. Funny, then not funny, then something else; the long middle stretch is the only place it drags.
- [*The Thing*](https://film.one/film/the-thing.md) — 1982 · Fi1m 88 · R · 1h 49m · Horror/Mystery · on Amazon Prime Video
  Carpenter’s Antarctic horror is as cold and frightening as it was in 1982, and the effects have aged into something stranger than modern digital work. The men are thin as people, and the middle sags a little. We would still tell you to see it.
