Movie reviews of Evan Popplestone

As it is you are frustrating, peculiar beast that’s worth seeing for the good stuff, but worth cursing for the bad.

It’s a truly disappointing affair, especially since it could have been a superlative zombie-filled train ride.

There is a certain devil-may-care, testosterone laden joy that makes this slender effort worth watching.

A bittersweet gem.

Jaw-dropping visuals, but thankfully has just enough else going on to be more than pure spectacle.

The themes of glib gestures, stirring up of paranoid sentiments, skullduggery and muckraking are as relevant as ever today.

An entertainingly bonkers cult favourite...

Most of the crucial details have been nailed down...

Fine, unashamedly 18 rated thrills, and one of the overlooked gems of its decade.

A head-scratching mess.

Just a diverting showcase for some pretty cool practical effects.

As a comedy, while intermittently funny, it seems a bit dated - yet as a sci-fi it’s actually quite prescient.

A wonderful watch and a prime example of how the oldie horror films are so often the best.

Covers such a broad canvas with so many eye-opening revelations that the viewer might wish that some of them were covered in more detail.

A fast and funny cinematic flirtation...

Emily Blunt is superb, her performance mixing self-pity, regret, bitterness and rage...

An enjoyable reminder of a time when Woody Allen was really funny.

Visually beautiful, the action sequences are superbly orchestrated, the pacing is pitch-perfect, and there’s also a genuine heart here.

Imagine Lethal Weapon with two Riggs, less plot and no Murtaughs. Now imagine it retold by a cokehead.

A satisfying movie that works well as both a comedy and a romance.
