Film Reviews
Reviews of all the latest film releases, from indie festival flicks to big screen blockbusters.
She’s Missing – a transportative and well-led drama that lacks… drama
A slow slumber through the desert with moments of poignancy to spare.
Yesterday review – this film’s troubles are here to stay
Unfortunately, this schmoopy Beatles tribute movie’s troubles aren’t far away at all.
Robert the Bruce – a rousing tale of loss, triumph and family
A grizzly tale that is rough around some edges but rousing nonetheless.
Memory: The Origins of Alien review – an intoxicating glorification of a sci-fi classic
A phenomenal lesson in the imagination it takes to make movie history.
Toy Story 4 review – a beautifully designed and emotional fourth chapter
Back off kids, David Lynch’s latest existential drama is not for you.
Holy Lands review – brooding dialogue and painful misjudgements bring down a strong cast
By the Gods, this is bad.
Men In Black: International review – just hang up your neuralyzers, already.
Not even Tessa Thompson and Chris Hemsworth can save this dull reboot.
The Outsider review – not even an outside chance of prize for Best Western
A Western that tries to do something new yet by the book, and ends up repeating something old in a way that makes little sense.
