The Martini Shot (2025)

Stephen Wallis’s new existential comedy‑drama *The Martini Shot* debuts on UK digital platforms via Miracle Media. The film stars a veteran ensemble—including John Cleese, Derek Jacobi and Morgana Robinson—centered on a terminally ill director who stages a final, surreal shoot. While the cast delivers award‑winning performances, critics note the narrative drifts into non‑sequitur territory, leaving audiences divided. The title references the industry slang for the day’s last take, underscoring the movie’s self‑reflexive tone.
