I saw it today. I didn’t think she was anymore forgettable anyone else. Overall, it’s a very average film though, without any particularly exciting performances or a compelling story. She did looks very good in it mind.
I had the pleasure of seeing Three Billboards last night for the first time (finally). What a film this is. Right up there with Shape of Water for me, albeit in a very different way. And what a battle it’s going to be for the Leading Actress Oscar, with the leading women of both films providing...
So I saw Black Panther today. Unlike the other reviews so far, I thought it was excellent albeit much less light hearted than most Marvel films. I thought they asked interesting questions about war, about helping your fellow man etc. I thought the acting was generally very good and the villain...
I loved La La Land and I’m just back from Shape of Water, which was by some distance my favourite film of this year so far.
I didn’t care for Dunkirk at all though, which you raved about. So I guess it’s all about opinions.
I am clearly in the minority. I still get great pleasure from them. For me, going to the cinema is a chance to escape, to dream, to hope. These films offer that for me. But I love a wide range of cinema and if I don’t enjoy a genre (not really a “horror” film fan, for example), then I just stay...
Saw The Post today. I know it’s had a bit of debate on here, but it was an average film, at best, for me - no more than a 6/10, and I’m shocked to see it’s an Oscar contender considering the standard of film that was out last year. There was a real lack of tension throughout, and I couldn’t...
Only just got round to seeing this. This is how I felt. Oldman, as always, was an absolute delight.
Strangely, I felt more emotion and passion in this than I ever did Nolan’s Dunkirk, which obviously covers the same period from a totally different perspective. A large part of that was probably...
I’ve seen Molly’s Game and Coco this week. The latter is a lovely animated film that I imagine will grow in popularity as word gets around, even if the ending is incredibly predictable. 8/10 easily.
Molly’s Game was a strange film. Almost entirely narrated, the film was not a cinematic piece to...
So today I’ve seen Hostiles and The Greatest Showman.
The latter was a lot of fun if you enjoy a musical. Predictable and very on the nose, but easy to sit through and I suspect the music will become catchier the more it’s played. Plus, Michelle Williams.
As for Hostiles, it’s a slow burner. I...
