| 3 T4 | Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets (2017) - Jul 24, 2017
"For what should be a fairly straight ahead fun film this thing really slogs. Some decent alien creatures and that VR scene was probably the most piercing satire the film achieves (although it really tries to be political, mainly failing at it). the two leads have absolutely no chemistry together so their love feels tedious. I dunno just watch the Fifth Element."

| 5 T8 | Dunkirk (2017) - Jul 21, 2017
"See this in IMAX or at least in theatres as sound plays a very important role in this film. It really adds to the claustrophobic, helplessness of the situation. There is basically no escape from it. Glad there was almost no dialogue. He was just letting himself be pure image. I've been seeing complaints about the lack of actual enemies, but don't you think that's the point? Doesn't that make it even more terrifying? Fighting against a relentless machine instead of human beings. "

| 5 T8 | Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017) - Jul 19, 2017
"The first Marvel movie since Iron Man to actually be funny. I'm still not sold on Holland as Spider-man (yeah nerds, this may be what Spider-Man is like in the cOmICS, but it's still just annoying), but they fill the cast with enough funny/talented people around him that it doesn't matter. Hannibal's throwaway line about Captain America was probably my fav joke in the whole film. The action scenes were still not great and it does drag in parts, but it's the first "fun" superhero movie in a while"

| 4 T6 | Rebel Without a Cause (1955) - Jul 19, 2017
"My favourite part was how much the jacket popped in every scene. It's definitely a lower tier Ray"

| 5 T8 | War for the Planet of the Apes (2017) - Jul 16, 2017
"Quite quiet and contemplative for a large summer blockbuster. Spectacularly directed and Serkis playing a CGI ape is one of my fav performances of the year. Everything just works so well together. Bad Ape was great. Also, if you can watch this you can probably watch foreign films since so much of this was reading subs."

| 2 T2 | Pawn Sacrifice (2015) - Jul 15, 2017
"It's probably impossible to make a good movie about chess. If there was going to be one it would be about Fischer (not the best player ever, but inarguably the most interesting). This was mostly just a paint by numbers biopic. Maguire was pretty good tho. "
