My favourite releases in the UK this year. I have no idea how I Swear will be received outside of the UK but I'd take it over anything else I've seen in 2025. The book it is based on is also superb 👌

I know people go with top 10 favourite first watches and all that but why restrict it to that when you've seen so many belters this year. An Icelandic gem that everyone is sleeping on at the top sounds about right for me 🎬
