Fantastic and imaginative exploration of how a young person might deal with grief. Brilliantly told by Patrick Ness and superbly realised by J.A. Bayona, this is one story that balances drama and CGI with aplomb. Incredibly moving, deftly handled and one of my favourite films of last year. Liam Neeson's gravelly voice is brilliantly put to use as the tree. It's wonderful, please watch it!

The premise sees the crew of a colony ship - the Covenant - bound for a remote planet, discover an uncharted paradise, until everything goes a little bible wrong. Then it's all just ludicrous.
