Movie reviews of Alice Bishop

An exquisite tale of reactive romance from South Korea’s most accessible director...

Becomes an underwhelming addition to an already saturated market with its level of conceptual proficiency unable to distract from its underwhelming application.

Experimental but highly unique...

A rare treat on the remake market with visuals that pre-millennial audiences thought unimaginable in its original format...

Fails to be consistently thrilling, occasionally matching the staying power of its bittersweet ending...

An oddly matched piece of filmmaking with a level of confidence that far exceeds its overall IQ.

His nutty performance shows a level of creative freedom that very few actors are afforded over the course of their career.

Putting survival instinct at the forefront of the film’s major predicament, the writers opt for dread over depth...

A movie entirely summarised by its promotional materials...

Presents its ghostly encounters as tangible, and terrifying observations, producing eerie apparitions and confining them to the experience of one character.

A straw-clutching invasion thriller based on a murder case that viewers have spent the past fifty years trying to forget...

A wounded yet tranquil tale of insanity...

McGregor steals the show as the short-sighted journalist...

Another notable live-action remake from Walt Disney Pictures...

A cerebral invasion thriller about the struggle to preserve identity under brutally conspicuous circumstances...

An exhausting ricochet comedy set to the beat of “Reservoir Dogs” but missing the hook of a good Tarantino script...

A film of stresses and strains charred under the spotlight of irreversible misfortune...

Larson and Hiddleston provide the performances necessary to bring together a mishmash of reshuffled and recycled content...

A countercultural headspin with a self-aware conscience...

An unforgivable stab in the dark as it flings amateur jump scares around like a rancher scattering corn on barren land...

A useless combination of situational humour and after-school fisticuffs...

A murky tale of toe-treading ambition...

On par with Pablo Larraín’s “Jackie” for most tedious and unnecessary female-focused film of the year...

A film predating the internet age but one that has an awful lot to say about grabbing fifteen minutes of fame in a celebrity-centric world.
