Will Smith stars as a man who sets out to help the lives of seven different people in order to redeem himself.

The Meg - RTÉ One - 9.30pm

With the (very disappointing) sequel currently in the cinemas, why not watch the first and much better original giant shark flick?

Glass - FilmFour - 11.20pm

The third and final chapter of M Night Shyamalan's Unbreakable trilogy, Glass brings the characters from Unbreakable (2000) and Split (2016) together to cap off an utterly bizarre but entertaining enough series of flicks.

Manhattan Night - Great! Movies - 11.25pm

2016 crime thriller starring Adrien Brody as a New York City crime reporter who is approached by a woman in need of help solving her husband's death.

Cape Fear - BBC One - 11.30pm

Our pick of the movies on TV tonight is the seventh collaboration between Martin Scorsese and Robert De Niro for this 1991 psychological thriller. De Niro stars as a convicted rapist who is released from prison after serving a fourteen-year sentence and begins to enact revenge of the lawyer who put him away. By no means Scorsese's best of his career, but Cape Fear is an excellent addition to the directing master's back catalogue and definitely one of his most underrated. De Niro is excellent as the terrifying as Max Cady, a role which earned him a Best Actor nod at the Oscars. The movie itself is a pulpy thriller that won't disappoint if you stick it on later.

Downsizing - Channel 4 - 12.55am

2017 sci-fi comedy where Matt Damon stars as a man who shrinks his body to start a new life in an experimental community, only for his wife to back out last minute.
