Batshit insane, this two-bit disaster movie is slapped together so haphazardly as to not only be boring, seizure-inducing and garish, but indeed an insult to cinema-going audiences worldwide. Review
A brutal and gripping story of a Kosovan woman trying to survive the loss of her husband, and start a business in a village where women aren’t typically allowed to work. Review
Fun as a guilty pleasure, but this trash-lit adaptation is rote as they come in the age of streaming services. Review
A distinctly Amoldovarian film, giving us a look at the legacy of Spanish fascism, while also providing an emotional and thrilling drama. Review
A beautiful movie, musing on the importance and extent of family. Much like family, though at times the film may frustrate, ultimately you feel more fully realised and whole on leaving the cinema than on entering. Review
A captivating performance from Kristen Stewart anchors a beautifully presented, but ultimately heartbreaking tale. Review
Great action, strong characters and an intoxicating sense of fun make The 355 the perfect popcorn film to catch this summer. Review
A somewhat disappointing entry into the franchise, The King’s Man squanders a beautiful middle act to deliver a derivative ending. Review
A perfectly serviceable, but uninspired, adaptation of the broadway musical. Review
An uncomfortable, but also frequently humorous watch, that struggles to assert itself as compelling viewing despite some strong performances. Review
Anchored by a tremendous performance from Will Smith, this heartfelt, engaging, funny and enjoyable biopic is a joy to watch. Review
Paul Thomas Anderson does it once again; a funny, heartfelt and emotional coming of age story that succeeds on every level. Review
House of Gucci is undeniably a good film; it’s just a little too bland, a little too safe, and a lot too long to be truly great. Review
A movie that fundamentally comes off as bland, derivative and boring; all the more cutting given the inventive, cutting and wildly strong start. Review
Anderson aficionados are unlikely to mark this as a high point in the auteurs oeuvre. Review
Don’t Look Up is a comedy that, despite general enjoyment, never really generates any belly laughs in amongst its heavy handed preaching. Review
Sing 2 loses the thread with some of its existing characters, but replaces it with a tale of heart, mourning and moving on that is really beautiful. Review
A blast from the past given a twist of the modern, Ghostbusters: Afterlife is a worthy, if imperfect, update to the franchise and a fun summer flick to indulge in. Review
Evidently low-budget, but admirably interesting - if you can set aside some of the cliches of troubled writers. Review
Ambitious and gargantuan, the spiritual closer to the Tom Holland Spiderman series is phenomenal. Review
Despite some A+ songs, this musical serves up nothing truly new. Review
A gorgeous, slow-burn, erotic Western noir that can’t be put neatly into a little box; and is all the better for it. Review
Despite a great lead performance, the pacing and muddled dialogue of this piece fails to entertain. Review
