Even Timothee Chalamet can’t save this boring historical drama
Film Reviews
Reviews of all the latest film releases, from indie festival flicks to big screen blockbusters.
LFF 2019: The Peanut Butter Falcon review – absolutely delightful bag of indie sunshine
This will warm even the coldest of hearts.
Good Posture review – Dolly Wells’ directorial debut is charming yet forgettable
Good Posture makes for a fairly amusing watch.
Ready or Not review – dark comedy is all bark and little bite
A film which spends too much time telling us it’s dark and fun, rather than showing us.
The Goldfinch review – so much talent wasted on a film that won’t shine
This won’t do the novel justice.
The Little Girl Who Sold the Sun review – an uplifting, empowering and delightful tale of courage and hope
A colourful, joyous and absorbing story of courage and self-belief
The Kitchen review – dish that fails to deliver
Even this star-studded cast can’t rescue a flavourless film.
The Riot Act – a moody and stylish drama that overstretches itself
Overambitious, but nicely presented and with a gripping main story.
