“He was a libra moon” I loved Rachel Sennott in Shiva Baby and am totally not surprised that she completely stole the show here. She made what might be cringey or forced “youth” dialogue flow so effortlessly, and landing all her comedic beats, that’s it’s genuinely hard not to walk away from this film without thinking …
After Yang is both a departure and continuation from Kogonada’s previous film Columbus. Aesthetically it follows on from Columbus with the mind-numbingly gorgeous static cinematography on display throughout the entire film. Where Columbus uses its visuals to highlight the natural architectural beauty of the buildings in Columbus, but also the architectural beauty that is found …
Jordan Peele’s Nope is yet another hit from the innovative horror director. This time he takes his skills in horror to the skies to wonderful results. Far more ambitious in scope than his previous two projects, Nope feels like a spectacle, and witnessing this on the biggest screen possibly is the right way to see …
Many films have attempted to breach into the world of internet culture, either through scathing analyses or satirical comedies, but none of them truly ever capture the horrors that plague the social media driven society we’ve all grown accustom to (minus Eighth Grade but that captures a very specific moment in time). Not Okay is …
Didn’t think this film would make as many Thomas the Tank Engine jokes as it did, but man did it get me every single time. This was just a blast. A hyper-violent, gory mess of chaotic energy that is just a bunch of dumb fun. You can feel the cast having a ball emanating from the …
Look, I really wanted to like this. I thought the abhorrent amount hate this film is getting was a residual effect of people just hating the MCU lately, but alas, this film isn’t good. I really enjoyed what The Russos did with their MCU entries. Each of the four films they directed are seriously great …
Yet another addition into the ever-expanding MCU, Ms. Marvel introduces one more young, relatable and endearing hero into the fold. Without a doubt the best part of this show is Kamala Khan. Iman Vellani gives one of my favourite performances in any marvel project to date, she simply oozes enthusiasm and this effervescent energy that …
So, the latest addition to the MCU has just dropped and with it comes many conflicted feelings once again. The film is plastered from start to finish with Taika-isms, it’s stuffed full of great comedy and absurd moments and while that’s great it sadly lessens the heart and emotion that this film is desperately trying …
As far as legacy sequels go, this is the pinnacle of them. Yes it might be a blatant cash grab by rehashing an old franchise yet again to get bums in cinemas, but this film respects its audience by giving them a cinematic endeavour worthy of seeing on the big screen. Not only does it …
Somewhere within this 6-hour event there lives a concise and powerful 2-hour film, but sadly the filler and bloated nature of the latest Star Wars Disney+ show leaves it feeling unnecessary and aimless. When the show shines, it really does. This happens when the show focuses on its primary relationship, the fraught connection that still …
