Bad Boys for Life Violence is something the first two films, whatever you may think of them, did exceptionally well and action junkies can rest assured that this stylish, derivative and fitfully fun third outing, once again starring Will Smith and Martin Lawrence, will at least give them their money’s worth in slashed throats, impaled torsos and bullet-riddled bodies.

Celebration This long-awaited observational documentary, directed by Olivier Meyrou, is a tribute to the incredible craft of haute couture, meticulously fussed and fitted and fretted over by designer Yves Saint Laurent, an army of seamstresses and YSL's business partner Pierre Bergé; the peek into this world feels like an unearthed gem released from a vault.

The Etruscan Smile "Succession's" Brian Cox is a wonder to watch, and seeing him in this gentle, vulnerable role, spouting folk tales and seductions in ancient Scottish Gaelic, is a treat. If only the rest of this sappy story stood up to his talents. R. Available April 3 on Film Movement Plus; digital, Blu-ray and DVD, June 16
