After stuntman Colt Seavers (Ryan Gosling) suffers a severe accident on set, he takes a step back from the movie business. When he hears his old flame camerawoman Jody Moreno (Emily Blunt) is getting her big break, he has to be there for her Directorial debut. But the disappearance of the actor he's standing in for puts Colt in the middle of a dangerous mystery.
Dumb, but fun! That should be my entire review, but Goslings performance is worthy of…

💀👻🎃 2024 Spooktober 💀👻🎃
They're creepy, and they're kooky
Mysterious and spooky
They're all together ooky
The Addams Family
Ahhhh what kookier, spookier and more fun way to start 💀👻🎃 2024 Spooktober 💀👻🎃 than with this classic from 1991 (yes, it's more than 30 years old, it qualifies!) Apparently, there were serious issues with the production of the film, but you would never know by the quality of what appears on screen. Though I couldn't work out where Carol Kane…

A love triangle set amidst the cutthroat world of professional tennis, I wasn’t sure Challengers would be my thing. The biggest drawcard for me wasn’t the performances, but the story that pulls you in, and the imposing soundtrack is fabulous.

It may have been the only award I was truly invested in yesterday 😂I have to say the tennis action is extremely well…

Dragged along to watch Barbie, I was one reluctant cinema-goer! I was very dubious of all of the 5-star Letterboxd ratings, but my daughter (on her second viewing) had recommended I go in, turn off my analytical brain, and enjoy.
We spent 114 Minutes laughing, crying and bathing in Barbie's pink and rainbow sparkle-sprinkled glorious world!! Not only is Barbie a blindingly gorgeous spectacle to look at it also contains some of the most genuinely expressed, heartfelt messages. I loved…

It has been a good number of years since I revisited Ridley Scott's 1979 classic, Alien, and there's a reason for that. It has never truly resonated with me, and I ashamedly admit I looked down on it somewhat as one of those big-budget 'horror' movies that was there for the scares and not much else. I'm pleased to say I got more from it this time around. Scott's direction is exquisite, from the opening scenes of the astronauts waking from…
