Joker Review

Joker is the latest DC outing chronicling the origin story of Batman's most iconic villain, but unlike previous properties Shazam and Aqauaman, it's a film that feels much more like the publisher's Black Label comics. Its a darker and nastier affair that…

Ready or Not Review

For a British audience of a certain age, there is almost a sort of nostalgia for the first act of black comedy horror Ready or Not. The ensemble cast of odd and quirky characters in a stately gothic mansion, evokes memories of…

Film Review: Rambo Last Blood

Well it has been nearly 40 years since First Blood, and strangely it doesn't feel anywhere near that. I suppose the first outing of John Rambo, is such a well known film, that people probably mis-remember when they actually watched the darn…

Film Review: Ad Astra

In the same year that NASA commemorated the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon mission, it's only fitting that one of the most spectacularly realistic portrayals of space is brought to life on the big screen. Brad Pitt is utterly captivating…

Film Review: IT Chapter Two

Guess who's back, back again...IT Chapter One was both a box office and critical hit, quickly becoming the highest-grossing horror film of all time. Andy Muschietti's adaptation of Stephen King's beloved novel proved a winning combination of 80's nostalgia and scares (with…

The latest gritty crime drama based on a Swedish novel to hit the big screen comes courtesy of The Informer, a gripping and compelling tale that's full of tense twists and turns, yet ultimately fails to really bring anything new to the…

Film Review: Crawl

There's a creepy sense of disaster around every corner in Sam Raimi's latest thriller Crawl, that has the viewer often on the edge of their seat. It's a similar vibe to his other claustrophobic chiller Don't Breathe, it's just the antagonist that…

Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark is a horror movie based on a book series of the same name, that although well known in the States, is an unknown commodity here in the UK. As far as I can gather, this…

Film Review: Hobbs & Shaw

Hobbs & Shaw is 2019’s addition to the well revered Fast & Furious franchise. It’s clear from its crowd-pleasing dialogue and ridiculous scenes (where the time of day changes every two minutes even though it’s one continuous sequence) that this is a…

Film Review: Once Upon a Time In Hollywood

This is Quentin Tarantino’s 10th film. Let’s be clear about that. The significance? He’s always claimed he’d be bowing out after 10. Never to direct again. His peers can barely believe he’d claim such a ridiculous thing, with Paul Thomas Anderson quoted…

Film review: The Current War

It seems a shame that The Current War has been released in the middle of the Summer holidays, when cinema goers are usually looking for fun superhero style entertainment, animated franchise entries or Disney remakes. It will probably flounder like Doctor Who…
