Movie reviews of Jacob Richardson

This mystical, magical Bonnie and Clyde story will shock, surprise and stay with you. Review

Dark Waters is perfectly serviceable, but largely uninspired. Review

Beautiful costuming can not an interesting film make. Review

A creatively void, decrepit piece of cinema that features a cast intent on doing the absolute least they can. Review

Terrible CGI and a propensity for the saccharine means this adaptation falls flat. Review

Emma is a funny, engaging and entertaining Austen adaptation. Review

Undeniably confronting, strange and unpredictable, ultimately The Lighthouse will stay with you for days, weeks, and potentially longer - worming its way into your brain. Review

Margot Robbie shines in an at times obnoxiously non-standard, but frequently fun, anti-hero tale. Review

A remarkable oddity of a biopic, whose somewhat despondent undercurrent is ultimately swallowed whole by the irrepressible optimism of Tom Hanks’ Mr. Rogers. Review

Messy and unkempt, this underwater thriller mixes flashes of brilliance with broadly ineffective storytelling for a distinctly mixed, but never unenjoyable, time at the cinema. Review

Solid performances and a remarkable true life story can’t elevate this paceless film from the depths of mediocrity. Review

Bad Boys For Life won’t win a shiny Oscar, but it will get you cheering in your seat and loving every second of screentime. Review

Against all the odds, after a troubled production and a bevvy of rumors, Dolittle makes it to the screen not only in one piece, but as a fairly enjoyable, perfectly OK piece at that. Review

A modern horror story told effectively, innovatively and compellingly. Review

Despite a magnetic Kristen Stewart, Seberg is only ever able to barely justify its existence. Review

My Spy is impossibly derivative, lethargically performed and remarkably poorly paced, but for those unused to ever seeing films, or those unfazed by quality, there's enough in the family dynamic here to justify an existence. Review

Waititi walks a fine line, but delivers a touching and impactful film full of laughs and light. Review

This second roll of the dice for the updated Jumanji franchise still hits all the same beats; just slightly less satisfyingly and surprisingly than before. Review

The insanity and wild entertainment factor of the central conceit at the heart of Spies in Disguise never truly overcomes a relatively rote story structure and predictable plotting. Review

A visceral, emotional, intense masterpiece that will have you on the edge of your seat with your eyes firmly glued to the screen. Review

A stacked ensemble and a barrel of laughs makes this more tame Guy Ritchie picture a whole lotta fun. Review

Existence is futile, and nothing makes sense, in a world where this movie exists. Book your therapist now; you’re going to need a LOT of emotional work to get rid of the trauma of watching Tom Hooper’s latest. Review

JJ Abrams returns to the helm for the ninth instalment in the Skywalker saga, and while he brings the action and fan service moments in spades, this feels tired, sluggish and overly contrived. Review

The Good Liar is fine. Mainly, that is down to Ian McKellan and Helen Mirren. But we’d be lying if we said we thought it was good. Review
