Film Reviews
Reviews of all the latest film releases, from indie festival flicks to big screen blockbusters.
Papillon review – Charlie Hunnam and Rami Malek make a magnetic pair
A brilliantly moving story of survival led by a truly powerful performance
Mowgli review – a grittier Jungle Book that misses the mark
Hot on the heels of Disney’s live action remake from 2016, this grittier adaptation of The Jungle Book is somewhat of a disappointment.
Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse review – an electric, eclectic joy ride
Unapologetically nerdy, heartfelt, and genuine – everything a Spider-Man movie should be!
The Girl in the Spider’s Web review – lacklustre, cold addition to the franchise
If Lisbeth’s the new Bond, this film is the franchise’s Quantum of Solace
Fantastic Beasts: Crimes of Grindelwald review – soulless and convoluted
I know you feel obligated to see it because it’s technically Harry Potter, but I wouldn’t feel too bad about giving it a miss.
Fahrenheit 11/9 review – Moore’s angriest and most urgent film to date
This is a warning against the imminent and total collapse of American democracy.
Don’t Worry, He Won’t Get Far On Foot review – darkly comic biopic that only sometimes hits the mark
Joaquin Phoenix plays a paralysed alcoholic cartoonist, but it’s funnier than it sounds.
Bohemian Rhapsody review – a rocking biopic with incredible heart and soul
Genuine film royalty. Go watch it and have yourselves a real good time.
LFF 2018: The Hate U Give review – activism movie that doesn’t give teens enough credit
Real dialogue: ”I saw you unfollowed my Tumblr, Hailey.”
