"Another slow moving film where characters gradually reveal themselves-in a story of dubious morality it is still peppered with moments of pure humanity-the detective/ mystery element of the story didn’t work so well for me."

High Plains Drifter (1973) - Mar 10, 2023

"Some great things about this film, the opening and ending particularly. I don’t mind the brutality but it’s hard to get past the misogyny of Clint Eastwood’s protagonist and truly enjoy watching it today."

Boiling Point (2021) - Mar 09, 2023

"Excellently executed piece of social commentary -Stephen Graham is brilliant but so are all the characters around him- a must watch for anyone who eats in a restaurant."

Never Rarely Sometimes Always (2020) - Mar 05, 2023

"Very real understated drama, that feels like a documentary. Very little dialogue, every emotion is expressed by the camera lingering on faces. It’s a sad story but a testament to female friendship."

Cow (2021) - Mar 05, 2023

"A very clever piece of film making-just cows , no narrative and no judgement but still this makes you think about so many aspects of humanity."

The Fabelmans (2022) - Mar 02, 2023

"Disappointing as this didn’t quite work for me-there were elements that were brilliant, the gradual realisation that the camera reveal’s hidden truths and can also create an untruth-but as a whole it felt quite disjointed and covered too much ground."

"Highly enjoyable, fast paced addition to the Luther series. Very dark but also thought provoking."
