Simon Morris looks enviously at the French Film Festival highlights that he can't see until their general release. While he waits he checks out the "re-imagining" of the recent How To Train Your Dragon, the French John Wick, K O on Netflix, and a superior romance from the director of Past Lives. It's called Materialists. K O is a French Netflix thriller, that sees an MMA fighter accidentally kill an opponent in the ring, then feels obliged to protect his family from dangerous gangsters. Starring actual former MMA star Ciryl Gane. How To Train Your Dragon is a remake of the popular animated feature with a difference. The live-action version is written and directed by the maker of the original Dean DeBlois (Lilo and Stitch). Once again starring Gerard Butler as Viking chief Stoick. Materialists sees a successful matchmaker (Dakota Johnson) find herself torn between her heart and her head - between Mr Perfect and the far-from-perfect One That Got Away. Also starring Pedro Pascal and Chris Evans, it's written and directed by Celine Song, who made the Oscar nominated Past Lives.
