This week is all about 60’s spies (with Superman!), teenage literary drama and some predictable cheese (any of the last three movies will fit that description, so that’s handy).

2015 is the year of the spy. The Kingsman, Mission Impossible 5, a new James Bond and now The Man From U.N.C.L.E are all making covert espionage ops the hot new trend at the box office.
