  • Piece By Piece

    Piece By Piece

    ★★★★½

    That Carl Sagan segment was beautiful — his words floored me and the scene damn near brought a tear to my eye.

    Pharrell has long been an inspiration of mine — from the songs and videos to the clothes and shoes. I’m hard-pressed to think of someone who has created so much of such an impact on both me personally and the culture at large. Piece By Piece is just another shining example of his genius. I don’t know which…

    Anora

    ★★★★

    Sean Baker’s Palme d’Or winner Anora is what you get when a can of Chernobly fucks a bag of ketamine in the dimly lit VIP section of a Manhattan whorehouse, and I’m still not entirely sure if I think that’s a good thing or a bad thing 😅

  • Bullet Train

    Bullet Train

    ★★★½

    David Leitch’s latest, Bullet Train, rolls into theatres this week and while it’s not the smooth maglev’d ride its double entendre of a title would suggest, it’s certainly an entertaining one. Starring Brad Pitt, whose week promoting the film has been one long parade of Fruity Pebbles-inspired linen-blend suits and skirts, Bullet Train is packed with about as much colour and energy as a bowl of the Post cereal.

    Admittedly, I was pretty lethargic heading into this one—in a few…
