Based on the book The Nazi and the Psychiatrist by Jack El-Hai, Nuremberg follows the true story of the titular court trials held by the Allies after the end of World War II.

Douglas Kelley, an American psychiatrist, is left in charge of deciding whether Nazi prisoners at Nuremberg prison are fit to stand trial for their crimes during the war – among them Hermann Göring, Hitler’s right-hand man.

The two enter a battle of wits, with Göring vowing to ‘escape the hangman’s noose’ for the atrocities he was part of, while Kelley is desperate to make sure the right people are held accountable for their actions and ensure history never repeats itself.

Before Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight trilogy came a string of Batman movies that set the stage for the modern superhero blockbuster. Now you can watch the original quartet on Sky Cinema.

Starting with Michael Keaton under the mask in _Batman (_1989), follow our favourite billionaire vigilante as he saves Gotham City from Jack Nicholson’s Joker, who determined to bring Gotham to its knees with his own unique brand of chaos.

Keaton is back for Batman Returns to face off against Michelle Pfeiffer's Catwoman and Danny DeVito’s Penguin, before Batman Forever sees the late Val Kilmer become the Caped Crusader as he battles Tommy Lee-Jones’ Two-Face and Jim Carrey’s Riddler.

And then... two words, Bat Nipples! George Clooney inherits the cowl in Batman & Robin as he tackles Arnold Schwarzenegger’s chilly Mr Freeze and Uma Thurman as the thorny Poison Ivy.
