This is a bit of a mixed bag, but on the whole I enjoyed it. In my book, it’s worth watching for the snort-worthy barn scene towards the end of the film. Review
This is definitely not a film for action lovers. But for fans of TV’s “All Creatures Great and Small”, that’s the sort of gentle, bucolic experience you can expect with this. Review
This was a small scale but genuinely entertaining comedy-crime drama that I found to be thoroughly entertaining throughout. Review
This is very much an arthouse film that will very much evoke a “WTF!” from regular cineplex-goers. Review
An intelligent and engrossing film, I really enjoyed this one. Recommended. Review
A short film that highlights (in a non political way) an issue increasingly affecting rural communities across the UK. It’s a short watch but a good watch. Review
With some irritations about the pacing, I enjoyed the start of the movie and the characters on show. But the last two thirds of the movie really went downhill for me and the non-event ending just plain annoyed me. Review
It’s atmospheric; it’s an interesting watch; but it is also extremely confusing. I’d watch it again to try to work it all out, but I’m not sure I have the patience. Review
As you might tell from a film about a biker gang, this is a rough, tough film with a good dose of threat and violence included. It will make you cross about human beings at times. But it is also very enthralling and a recommended watch. Review
I understand it stayed pretty loyal to the book, so that’s not the filmmakers fault. But for me this was a little gem becoming something tarnished. Review
This is a really solid melodrama, based on an interesting premise and with some extraordinary acting performances. Did it set the screen on fire and completely rock my world? Unfortunately, no. But it is worth catching anyway. Review
The script by Fennell is whip-smart funny. Every scene has its own particular zinger, mostly uncovering the shallowness and self-deception inherent within the rarified silver-spoon culture of Saltburn. Review
The story really hooked me in and kept my attention. Together with some impressive technical film-making skills and some very good acting performances, this is one that I’d recommend you try to catch. Review
I note that I’ve listed a lot more positives than I did negatives which makes me question my rating. But my top negative is a big one. Review
I found this a slightly frustrating watch. Aspects of the film are really good and enjoyable and Chastain and Sarsgaard are a class act. With some simplification and streamlining there is a great film somewhere in here. But I’m afraid, for me, this cut came over as a bit ‘all over the place’. Review
This was a teriffic film and is highly recommended. It is certainly one of the best foreign films I’ve seen this year and I’d certainly watch it a second time. Review
A popcorn movie that I found to be a truly entertaining and an enthralling watch. Review
It’s sad, moving but not without a quiet drumbeat of hope for the future in Falta’s diligent school work. Not an easy watch, but a recommended watch. Review
Another fantastic Scandi-comedy that I enjoyed very much. This one is partly in English – the ‘language of business’ – and partly Norwegian with subtitles. But it is very funny in any language. Review
Fallen Leaves is why I love the cinema. Just like the recent Past Lives the story, simple as it is, grabbed me, sucked me in and delighted me. Review
I personally like my documentaries meatier than this. This is clearly a very personal work for Ms. Abrahams, and I respect her for it. But, whilst appreciating the film-making talent involved, I’m afraid it just failed to completely float my boat. Review
I understand that this is the first feature by writer/director Sofia Alaoui, and it shows a great deal of promise. I thoroughly enjoyed the first half of the film as it built the relationships and the eerie level of mystery. But, for me, the film rather screwed the landing and left me feeling baffled. Review
This was a cracking film, highly engrossing and beautifully written, directed and acted. Review
