Allied Review
What do you do when the made up story behind a film becomes bigger than the film itself? Hope said movie is good enough to consign such scurrilous media speculation to the past – but I’m not sure Brad Pitt’s new film Allied pulls this off.
Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them Review
Five years since the last Harry Potter film was released, JK Rowling takes us back in time to her wizarding world with Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. But how much has actually changed?
Indignation Review
Indignation is probably the best word I could use to describe my emotional state on arrival at a rather more stylish West End venue than I had envisioned, rocking the old dad-bod, complete with flustered, ruddy complexion and beige slacks.
Paterson Review
A simple kind of life. No doubt this is a humble enough ambition, yet in our hyper connected and information saturated age, this simplicity feels more elusive than ever. Not for Paterson though, the titular bus-driving star of Jim Jarmusch’s brilliant new film.
La La Land Review
The perfect date. It’s a lot harder to find than it is to type, but at least the perfect date movie is easy to get your hands on now thanks to Damien Chazelle’s magical new film La La Land.
