| 87 T9 | The Friends of Eddie Coyle (1973) - 04 Dec 2023 |
| 94 T10 | Killer of Sheep (1978) - 04 Dec 2023
"Loved this. Loved the rough edges, loved the people, the kids, the lack of plot, stunning."
|
| 79 T5 | Belle epoque (1992) - 04 Dec 2023
"What would be a pretty dire sex comedy is rescued by some brilliant dialogue (need to understand the Spanish vernacular, subtitles get nowhere near it) and the seduction of Fernando by Violetta which is a standout scene in any film,"
|
| 80 T6 | Out 1, noli me tangere (1971) - 25 Nov 2023
"A vast experimental improvised unfolding of the elusiveness of meaning. Strangely engaging, but utterly barmy and pretty pointless"
|
| 45 T1 | The Banshees of Inisherin (2022) - 22 Apr 2023
"A film so awful in so many ways I find it hard to cram them all into a short review. Suffice to say this is a contrived abonimation that prostitutes rural Ireland in the bleakest most pointless of enterprises. Even the audio editing was amateurish before we even get to plot, accent, linguistic historicity, cliche, and the total bastardisation of anything of value whatsoever. Oscars? Oscar the grouch has more artistic probity."

| 86 T9 | Missing (1982) - 18 Apr 2023
"Subtle yet punchy this is a political and social thriller"
|
| 79 T5 | All Quiet on the Western Front (2022) - 18 Feb 2023
"In trying to portray the relentless gore of the novel this fails to shock as it’s simply not shocking any more in a movie. Well put together but not really sure it was all worth it."
|
| 84 T8 | Sightseers (2012) - 22 Jan 2023
"Classic Wheatley, one of the most watchable films I’ve seen in ages. Serial killers, the Caravan Club, you know what’s coming but it’s great anyway."
|
| 76 T3 | Tri istorii (1997) - 11 Jan 2023 |
| 79 T5 | The Hateful Eight (2015) - 08 Jan 2023
"Boring and predictable but well done. Even though I knew what was going to happen and didn’t care it was still gripping."
