The Fallout 2021
🎬 • 🍿 • 📀 • 🎞️ • 🎥
A difficult topic, so not wanting to comment overly much...Other than...extraordinary performance by Jenna Ortega! Seriously commendable stuff, one to watch in the years to come.

Ninjababy 2021
🎬 • 🍿 • 📀 • 🎞️ • 🎥
Beyond exceptional, Kristine Kujath Thorp plays the reluctant and messed-up-life-is-all-a-party Rakel, who finds herself unexpectedly pregnant. She portrayal is excellent to watch - superbly natural, fun, quirky, almost as if the part is her own life.Credit to the full team, who devise a quirky yet serious drama with lots of laughs wrapped in realism. A killer little drama/comedy.
My most sincere apologies, but how has it taken me so long to realise that Norwegian films are soooo good? First "Worst Person" and now this?

Bergman Island 2021
🎬 • 🍿 • 📀 • 🎞️ • 🎥
One of my most anticipated films for 2021, and perhaps why ultimately I suffered from the ‘expectations vs reality’ no-go rules of cinema. Bergman Island is a superbly crafted piece of self-reflection, played out triple-layered and within itself – yet, as wonderful and satisfying as that is (the ending will get ya right in the gut!) I found the pacing difficult to engage with, at least for the firs 30-40 or… -
Wrath of Man 2021
🎬 • 🍿 • 📀 • 🎞️ • 🎥
Guy Ritchie is just so unsure how to proceed ever since the whole Aladdin thing... -
Rosemary's Baby 1968
🎬 • 🍿 • 📀 • 🎞️ • 🎥
I’m gonna be honest, watching this with my 3-month pregnant wife was probably not my greatest moment… -
Turning Red 2022
🎬 • 🍿 • 📀 • 🎞️ • 🎥
A lot has already been said about “Turning Red” and overall, the vibe is relatively positive. Certainly a triumph for Domee Shi, as her inaugural feature length work – and if this is an indication of what’s to come, then sign me up!Generally, the piece is a great addition to the Pixar collection, yet one that failed to grab me the same way “Toy Story” and more contemporaries such as…

Nightmare Alley 2021
🎬 • 🍿 • 📀 • 🎞️ • 🎥
I’m rather late to the party on this one – but in my attempt to catch up before either getting unnecessarily outraged, or nodding my head in wanna-be-approval for the oscars…here we are!“Nightmare Alley” is a film that features lots of excellent people (Cate Blanchett, Willem Dafoe, Rooney Mara), tells a pretty cool story, has some really great camera work and design, but ultimately falls flat due to pacing, plotting…

The Eyes of Tammy Faye 2021
🎬 • 🍿 • 📀 • 🎞️ • 🎥
Jessica Chastain really showing off her chops in this one! A real hoot of a movie, but one so devoid of substance, it trickles on by until you realise that it’s finished.#oscarprep

Spencer 2021
🎬 • 🍿 • 📀 • 🎞️ • 🎥
What I am sure will become a study piece for film major's and composition students everywhere, Johnny Greenwood has provided easily one of the greatest music soundtracks for a film in cinema history. Exceptional use of avant garde small group in contrast to the more 'traditional' (yet still twisted!) string quarter and piano - the work is the utter life of this entire film. Truly remarkable .Kristen Stewart is also in this Johnny Greenwood film and does a very good job. Le fin...

Being the Ricardos 2021
🎬 • 🍿 • 📀 • 🎞️ • 🎥
As much as I adore Nicole Kidman and fanboy over Javier Bardem, as well as take great pleasure from much of Aaron Sorkin's movie (writing) career - 'Being the Ricardos' was one of the most boring boring films I have seen in a good long while. Holy moly, thank god it's over...
