Movie reviews of Garry Arnot

A charmless vanity project from Bradley Cooper that does little more than showcase the already globally established musical talent of Lady Gaga. Review

With a steady stream of embarrassing moments and spunk gags, this piece is very much in the throbbing vein that we’ve come to expect from Morris. Review

Boasting some of the best action scenes I’ve seen in as long as I can remember, this is a more than worthy entrant into the hugely successful series. Review

A thought-provoking, engaging film that will challenge and shock cinema-goers, and Ethan Hawke brilliantly immerses us into Toller’s increasingly disturbed psyche. Review

Brilliantly blithe and full of fun, encapsulating the insouciant essence of a holiday in the sun. Review

The plucky brothers navigate their way through a sub-standard story, and enough charm and warmth throughout to make the road-movie an enjoyable ride. Review

Sánchez skilfully executes jump scares and other genre tropes, crafting genuinely frightening scenes in the eerie haunted-house setting. Review

The developing dynamic of the dysfunctional family unit carries the plot, bringing a gamut of emotion to the heartfelt story. Review

The reflective yet ropey final act leaves a sour aftertaste to what, without it, would be perfectly palatable cinema. Review

The once-sharp pop-culture references now feel dated and lacklustre, and the script is jam-packed full of joke rehashes or throwaways... Review

Is a lazy cheap shot to cinema. Review

Carries the sentimental signature that is becoming synonymous with the work of Andrew Haigh, but it is very much a movie of two halves. Review

A riveting but exaggerated cinematic dissection of extremely flawed young minds and their capabilities. Review

Seductive, steamy and downright sinister, and its impact is amplified by Buckley and Flynn’s terrific performances. Review

A warm and wacky love-letter to adolescence which marks an important directorial debut for Gerwig. Review

A grandiose tale of toxic love that is completely bizarre in its brilliance. Review

A madcap tale of lonely souls and an impeccably crafted celebration of cinema... Review

Might be quite ordinary and familiar, but it is undoubtedly a timely retelling of an extraordinary story. Review

Shocking and side-splitting, and yet tender and tragic... Review

Fails to leave the emotional, nation-rallying impact it so desperately strives for. Review

A solid if unspectacular chapter of the Star Wars canon... Review

Sorkin has achieved the crowning glory of his cinematic career to date. Review

Very much a paint-by-numbers movie in terms of its scope and its structure. Review

A muddled mess that plays like a poorly judged SNL sketch that goes on far too long. Review
