Alex Cann's Weekly Film Blog from Wednesday, April 1st, 2026

Project Hail Mary is cream of the crop at the UK Box Office right now, with a second week at number one and easily surpassing Hoppers and Scream 7 to become the biggest film of the year so far. Ryan Gosling is terrific as a science teacher who wakes up from a coma in space, discovers he's the only one alive on the rocket, and that essentially the planet's future rests solely in his hands.
