Movie reviews of Garry Arnot

A thoughtful, emotionally charged and fitting finale to what should be recognised as one of the greatest trilogies in the modern age of filmmaking. Review

Far from revolutionary and lacks all the creativity and imagination that its subject possessed... Review

An entertaining thrill-ride with no shortage of smarts... Review

Jack Lowden is the charming centrepiece of this genuine gem of a movie. Review

Brave, bold and brilliantly blood-soaked, splicing top-notch comedy and cartoonish violence with aplomb. Review

A beautifully captured cinematic setlist... Review

Carefully crafted and smartly executed by Baltasar Kormákur... Review

Kidel’s narrative focus switches seamlessly between topics of conversation... Review

Baugh handles the low-budget violence deftly, combining with crackers comedy to carve out a bloody and barmy sub-genre... Review

There just isn’t enough of a story to captivate throughout. Review

The epitome of ‘popcorn fodder’, full of sun-soaked unsavoury stupidity. Review

Fun, fierce and fearless in equal measures, and marks a significant improvement in the construction of DC’s extended universe. Review

Rooney Mara's on-screen magnetism lends itself perfectly to Roseanne McNulty in one of the performances of the year so far. Review

By developing and dissecting the overarching concepts in detail, the ‘fear of the unknown’ tension associated with the original is lost... Review

A solid, if slightly forgettable, genre movie... Review

Thought-provoking and quietly moving, and Tony’s character study evokes reflection at anyone’s own life. Review

Marks a masterful directorial debut from a skilled filmmaker who presents a visceral feast for the eyes and ears... Review

As mighty and triumphant as it could have been... Review

The storytelling can feel laboured, but Scarlett Johansson's commanding screen presence elevates the material... Review

Satisfying throwback to survival science fiction cinema, and though it doesn’t do much to stretch the ever-growing boundaries... Review

Achieves shockingly smart satire as well as shuddering trepidation... Review

Frenzied, frenetic and full mouthed in the best possible way. Review

Oldroyd’s uses his experience to spin a boldly beguiling twist on the historical drama genre... Review

Has a fascinating character study at its abnormal heart, but traps Maureen in tiresome non-thriller of a tale. Review
