For a few krona more. The western is alive and well (-referenced) in Kristian Levring’s violent horse opera, one of the most exciting cowboy movies to clip-clop onto screens in a while. Stylish, sexy, with a quick-draw narrative, it’s set in 1864 in the small town of Black Creek: a …

It may feature a teeny hero, but the new Ant-Man trailer is big on thrills, laughs and cool-looking miniature scraps. While Marvel’s previous trailer for the film was low on content thanks to the beleaguered production schedule, this new trailer more than makes up for that. “I want you to …
