A haphazard, shoddy follow-up to the cult hit. Review
A gorgeous piece of filmmaking that focuses on the people in this piece, rather than the fighting and setpieces. Review
A heavy handed, occasionally moving, look at immigration, citizenship and deportation in the US, anchored in a well performed family drama. Review
Sparkling: The Story of Champagne is a baffling documentary that jumps all over the place. For those interested in champagne, this will be tolerable, but one imagines for a general audience this is best reserved for when it debuts on Sunday arvo television. Review
Passing is slow, and could be a tough to engage with streaming film, but those who make it through will reap the rewards of a stunningly beautiful, and well acted, drama. Review
Last Night In Soho is a joy; thrilling, exciting, beautiful and, ultimately, the sort of movie you’ll think on fondly for weeks after leaving the theatre. Review
An electrifying burst of chaotic energy; impossible to look away from. Review
A genuinely funny and lovely kids film that occasionally tackles the social media behemoths with sledgehammer subtlety. Review
A flawed, but engaging documentary piece, Sumodo -The Successors of Samurai- is a unique traipse into the intriguing world of sumo. Review
Three Perfect Daughters has some problematic helicopter parenting, but is a funny take on well-worn material. Review
A surprisingly nuanced take on rape culture, told with suitable bravado and violence for a medieval epic. Review
A meditative comedy, with a huge but largely misspent cast, nevertheless offers an entertaining reprieve from the day-to-day. Review
A somewhat baffling attempt at intertwined destinies, and unavoidable violence. Review
A surprisingly calm turn from Nic Cage anchors this affecting drama of one man and his truffle pig. Review
Serviceable but unessential viewing, Forever First Love struggles to define its place. Review
A semi-biopic that tugs on the heartstrings, while not necessarily practicing what it preaches. Review
A new phase for the Marvel Cinematic Universe is heralded by a fun new hero, a strong villain, an exciting film and a hell of a lot of cool action. Review
Respect delivers a potent telling of a musical legend, perfectly embodied by Hudson. Review
The Ice Road is confusing, full of ridiculous product placement, and produce with all the zest of a lime you cut in half and left in the fridge for the next 8 weeks, but there’s an indescribable nugget of honesty and truth in it that is nevertheless endearing. Review
Snake Eyes is oddly better than expected. Review
M. Night Shyamalan delivers a relatively expected, but still enjoyable thriller in Old. Review
Jungle Cruise feels a lot like Pirates of the Caribbean, and while it doesn’t have the iconic lead performance that film did to turn it into an instant classic, it’s still a hell of a lot of fun. Review
