    Carry-On

    ★★★½

    Yeah for me this high-key slapped, I'm a pretty big fan of Michael Mann's Collateral and that's really what this film is riffing on more than anything, is it as slick and stylish an affair as Collateral? I don't think so, but then Mann brings a certain heat to his filmmaking when he's firing on all cylinders, and this was helmed by Liam Neeson's friend Jaume Collet-Sera, who to be fair is making waves in bigger leagues of late, coming…

  • Conclave

    Conclave

    ★★★★

    I was so looking forward to Edward Berger's next film after his sensationally good adaptation of All Quiet on the Western Front, and Conclave might on the surface of it seem to be an odd film to be hyped for, but I was all aboard that particular train when in addition to Berger directing we had Ralph Fiennes quickly attached to lead, and the end product does not disappoint I'm pleased to say at the top of my review log…

    Leave No Trace

    ★★★★

    Leave No Trace is like watching Into the Wild, if Sean Penn's film didn't want to make a big song and philosophical dance about itself and it's protagonist, and I have to say I appreciated this more recent film with this sense of difference in mind.

    The story of Will and his daughter Tom is both fascinating and saddening to watch, there's something clearly broken in Will and he can't come around from it, meanwhile the life he's made for…

  • Nativity!

    Nativity!

    ★★★½

    Okay it's fun but I'm nonetheless surprised by the high esteem with which this film seems to be held by many, I had a good time with it because of Martin Freeman, and how much character seems to be the only sane person in this film and understanding of how mad, unprofessional, unlikable or just generally useless everyone is around him, I was really loving the first hour of this film with him as this curmudgeon just verbally steamrolling as…

    Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3

    ★★★★½

    This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.

    There's been so much discussion and dissection of the issues confronted by Marvel Studios in the post Endgame world, and more latterly Disney in general as they've struggled to return to top form in the wake of the Pandemic, overall it feels like the spark that kept them at the top and moving in the right direction has begun to stutter but it hasn't quite sputtered out yet and the occasional film keeps things ticking over, but they really needed…

    Red One

    ★★

    I was hoping this film would get a Prime release for Christmas 2024, and that I wouldn't have to wait a whole year to see it, I have been toying with the idea of seeing it on the big screen but honestly, I don't want to contribute any money to this one, I just don't believe that this film should have been made in the manner that it was, I think it's bloody egregious that Johnson walked away with $50…
