Movie reviews of Bob Mann

A sweary but stylishly-executed heist movie that has enough humour to thoroughly entertain this cinema-goer.

It’s a great film for showcasing acting talent, but beware: it’s not got a “lot of laffs”.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

All glitz and glamour but with little substance.

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

It’s an interesting watch...

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