Movie reviews of Hamish Calvert

Doesn’t reinvent the wheel but it’s a breath of fresh air in the cinematic comedic arena...

A charming film and would fill any lazy Sunday afternoon with your mum quite well.

Successful in presenting a fascinating, yet troublesome narrative which results in a consistently crazy ride.

Could have become a really entertaining comedy drama but the laboured and humourless majority halt it from doing so.

Del Toro tells so many stories within the grander narrative, giving each character the right amount of attention and allowing them to contribute their best to the story.

Quite possibly the strongest ever initial solo movie of any of the MCU heroes and the best film in this universe since Captain America: The Winter Solider...

A well executed biographical drama offering good insight into an event which made history that many may be unaware of.

Just isn’t substantial enough to warrant it’s theatrical release or running time.

A thoroughly enjoyable ride with the main cast being an absolute joy to be in company with.

The only redeeming features about ‘Loveless’ are the performances and the impressive cinematography.

A captivating and heartfelt drama...

The performances are always on point and there are flurries of inspired writing littered throughout the screenplay.

A solid installment in one of the most unpredictable film franchises in existence.

Even amongst the potential frustrations, these the strong performances and boisterous action are a more than ample substitute to keep audiences entertained.

So whilst The Open House is nothing groundbreaking within it’s genres it delivers an extremely involved ninety minute thrill ride.

There are some entertaining cameo performances also which are a nice touch but it was going to take a lot more than this to salvage Downsizing.

Director Wes Ball has delivered one of the strongest young adult series we’ve seen in the shape of a thoroughly entertaining trilogy.

An enthralling drama which really showcases the power and responsibility of the press.

A middle of the road (or track) Neeson action flick but it’s still more than serviceable entertainment.

Filled with inspired comedy, harsh truths and many heartfelt interactions between her characters which are blissful to be a part of.

Will require patience of it’s audiences but those willing to give it their full attention will be rewarded with a complex yet comical character study...

A much needed burst of originality for Pixar Studios.

Provides us with one of, if not the best, on screen portrayals of Winston Churchill there’s ever likely to be.

One hell of a riot from start to finish.
