20 Most Overlooked Movies Of 2025

Though it performed relatively well at the British box office and nabbed two trophies at the British Independent Film Awards, I Swear is a film that the world needs to know about.

If cinema is a machine for empathy above almost all other things, then Kirk Jones' new film is one of the most important of the year, shining a light as it does on the too-often misunderstood condition that is Tourette's syndrome.

Robert Aramayo gives a masterful, deeply empathetic performance as real life Tourette's activist John Davidson, in a film that manages to both confess the enormous difficulty of living life with the condition and accept that it isn't without its laughs.

We've all seen the heart-warming British sentimental underdog drama done to death over the decades, but I Swear's unique throughline lets it soar above, managing to educate its audience while telling an affecting and achingly humanistic story.
