Movie reviews of Bob Mann

A cut-above the norm, Washington’s solid performance makes this an entertaining night out at the flicks. Review

An excellent thriller that also effectively drills into grief and bereavement. Review

A great and eye-catching performance from Amandla Stenberg, but otherwise the movie is eminently missable. Review

A perfectly entertaining watch for a summer night, but it is uneven in tone... Review

The only actor for me that showed an ounce of promise was Alice Eve... Review

It neither completely satisfies as a romance nor as an adventure flick but falls rather uncomfortably between the two stools. Review

It’s an insanely tense film and it has more than its fair share of “WTF” moments... Review

I was enormously entertained throughout, and this should be near the top of your summer watch list. Review

Drips with cheese again, but who cares when it is so stylishly done. Review

All glitz and glamour but with little substance. Review

A robust and enthralling thriller-cum-romance that unusually delivers on both counts. Review

While it is not without faults it is a ball-achingly sad tale that moved me. Review

There are one or too laugh-out-loud moments but the majority of the screenplay is merely smile-worthy... Review

An effective summer blockbuster that mostly delivers on the thrills and should be a good crowd-pleaser. Review

Ron Howard has clearly done a good job in buffing up a poisoned chalice so it can at least share space on the Star Wars shelf without being laughed out of the Cantina. Review

As Marvel films go, it’s another corking comedy. Review

Every last thriller cliché is mined as the story grinds to an unmemorable and very flat conclusion. Review

A thoughtful period piece, with some great acting performances and well-directed by Mike Newell. Review

High-class nonsense, well-written, suitably humorous and providing excellent popcorn entertainment. Review

It’s no doubt a finely crafted film. But I’m honestly not sure it’s a film that gripped me enough... Review

It’s an interesting watch... Review

Still as fun as a slightly tacky ghost house ride at the fairground... Review

This is a must see for sci-fi and horror fans of all ages. Review

It’s unusual for me to laugh at a comedy so much, but this one I really did. Review
