Film Review: Guns Akimbo
Guns Akimbo is a wildly entertaining 96-minute action-comedy film starring Daniel Radcliffe and Samara Weaving, overflowing with crass, unapologetically offensive dialogue and hilariously unflinching violence and gore. Dir: Jason Lei Howden. Starring: Daniel Radcliffe, Samara Weaving, Ned Dennehy, Natasha Liu Bordizzo
The Invisible Man: Movie Review
The Invisible Man stars Elisabeth Moss in an adaptation of the classic H. G. Wells novel, presenting a fresh, technophobe horror story which examines obsession, control, and the unravelling of an individual’s sanity throughout its 124-minute runtime. Dir: Leigh Whannell. Starring: Elisabeth Moss, Oliver Jackson-Cohen, Aldis Hodge, Storm Reid, Harriet Dyer, Michael Dorman
The Current War: Movie Review
The Current War, directed by Alfonso Gomez-Rejon and executive produced by Martin Scorsese, is a well-written visual feast for geeks, scientists, steampunks and lovers of historical drama. Veronica McLaughlin files this review.
Movie Review: The Legend of Baron To’a
The Legend of Baron To’a is the first feature film from director, Kiel McNaughton, and markets itself as an action-comedy without managing to find stability in either throughout its 108-minute runtime.
Film Review: The Peanut Butter Falcon
The Peanut Butter Falcon is a comedy-drama film about a young man with Down syndrome, Zak, who escapes an assisted-living facility and crosses paths with a troubled thief and fisherman, Tyler, which sets the two on a bonding adventure across the Deep South in search of a wrestling school situated in Florida.
The Gentlemen: Movie Review
The Gentlemen is a crime action-comedy directed by Guy Ritchie, which revisits the fast-paced, twist-heavy nature of his early work and manages to provide solid moments of fresh comedy despite feeling at times stylistically overworked.
Movie Review: Doctor Sleep
Doctor Sleep is a delightful Siamese-twin of cinema, serving both as an adaptation of the 2013 Stephen King novel of the same name, and as a direct sequel to the 1980 Stanley Kubrick film, The Shining, balancing scares and satisfaction without pandering to either fanbase.
Movie Review: Terminator: Dark Fate
Terminator: Dark Fate is the sixth installment in the Terminator franchise, and acts as a direct sequel to the 1991 film, Terminator 2: Judgment Day. Overflowing with relentless action and balanced wonderfully with laugh-out-loud comedy, Dark Fate is a cinematic robotic onslaught with a gorgeous, human heart at its core.
Girls of the Sun: Film Review
In a world full of films about war, where men dominate the silver screen in heroic battles that far too often glamorise the futility of it all, how refreshing it is to see a story told from the female side.
