That's ultimately the biggest problem with Dark Match: for a movie that features so much action in the ring, its staging doesn't do enough to make it stand out from what the WWE and other franchises offer audiences on a near nightly basis. Review
Maybe it's a sign of my age, but I found myself intensely irritated by the antics of the young group of so-called comedians we're forced to spend time with here. Review
As great as Herisse and Wilson are in portraying Elwood and Turner on screen, the camera plays an integral role in fleshing out their characters. Review
For the most part this is an assured and highly promising debut from Rainbow, who lends a woman's touch to a previously male-dominated horror sub-genre. Review
Flight Risk is essentially a low budget variation of the old "the stewardess has to land the plane" disaster movie trope, with Madelyn given instructions by an improbably flirty pilot... Review
There are some wonderful visual moments, as you might expect, with a beautifully composed shot involving a model of the cruise ship passing an island that would have Wes Anderson fawning over its doll's house detail. Review
In its best moments Inheritance reminds us just how thrilling the espionage genre can be when a filmmaker takes it seriously. Review
For all its epic expanse, The Brutalist keeps us in its thrall thanks to the performances of Brody and Pearce. Review
Gatt fails to convince as a writer but impresses somewhat as a director, constantly finding new ways to visually enliven his film's barren setting, and the 35mm cinematography of Aurélien Marra captures the heat and dust of the location. Review
For all its attempts to tackle heavy themes, Wolf Man is ultimately just as silly as Joe Johnston's more faithful 2010 take. Review
Chalamet's portrayal is magnetic but the script never lets him be anything more than a mumbling enigma. Thankfully we have Dylan's songs to fill in the blanks, performed in a surprisingly convincing manner here by Chalamet. Review
The lack of technical creativity is somewhat disappointing but perhaps if Soderbergh had chosen to dazzle us with his camera moves we might have become too focussed on the spirit rather than the human drama it observes and so badly wishes to be a part of. Review
It's all a big mess, which is frustrating as there are moments that hint at the affecting look at the passage of time this might have been in the hands of a filmmaker more interested in humans than gadgets. Review
For at least its first half, Get Away is an amusing send-up of the tone deaf ignorance of Brits who naively decide to holiday in parts of the world once ravaged by their ancestors, oblivious to how their presence might be received by the natives. Review
Larrain, Knight and Jolie take us beyond the well manicured, stiff postured presentation of Callas to get to the heartbreaking turmoil that exists within her in these twilight days. Review
You get the sense Sharpe and Merlant are using their roles to audition for the next Bond movie - Sharpe flops but Merlant should have Barbara Broccoli sitting up and paying attention. Review
This comedy, with its sunny lighting and witty repartee, just might make you think about the Holocaust and its echoes in more profound ways than any well-intentioned black and white concentration camp drama. Review
Dickinson and Kidman have a scorching chemistry that sucks us into their thrilling relationship. Review
While the movie admittedly mostly features close-ups and wide shots of its players conversing, there is the occasional striking composition, most notably a late shot of a distraught Juno pleading with a statue of the Virgin Mary, an image that wouldn't be out of place in a Dreyer drama. Review
Eggers' Nosferatu is practically monochromatic in its lack of colour, as though its vampiric villain has sucked all the life from the print. Review
Even if we don't entirely believe the situations Almut and Tobias find themselves in, the palpable chemistry between Pugh and Garfield leaves us in no doubt that these two people belong together. Review
Murder! serves as an example of both Hitchcock's strengths and weaknesses, his interests and his dislikes. Review
With its patient storytelling, The Order resembles a product of a more mature era of Hollywood. Review
