Rams
(Neon)
Rams sees acting treasures Sam Neill and Michael Caton butting heads. The pair play rival sheep farming brothers who both farm sheep descended from their late father's prize stock. But when some sheep fall sick with an Ovine disease they're forced to cull their flock. With the precious sheep bloodline at stake, the bitter brothers have to set aside their differences and work together or risk losing everything.
With these two beloved acting veterans leading the way Rams has obviously been praised for its acting. But the understated dramedy has knocked over critics with its weathered charm, with the Herald's movie critic calling it, "A modern Ocker classic".
Streaming from Saturday.

A wealthy married couple moves into a palatial new house but a violent home invasion robs them of their excitement.

Trust no one in this mystery-thriller that will keep you guessing until the end and may just put you off shifting house.
