The Brutalist (2024) (Review)

6 March 2025

Adrian Brody is here to stay and is better than ever. It’s not hyperbolic to say Brady Corbet’s ' The Brutalist ' isn’t like anything in recent memory. It defies the general genre conventions we’ve grown accustom

Anora (2024) (Review)

11 January 2025

Sean Baker’s career has been a driving force in indie cinema, climaxing with his magnum opus in Anora (2024) . New York City is a cold place to live with the temperatures alone, even more so if you don’t have the pri

Alien: Romulus (2024) (Review)

28 September 2024

Who doesn't know the Alien Franchise at this rate? Having been 45 years since the original, we've gotten a slew of Alien movies, some great, some fine, and some bad. With the 'David saga' from Ridley Scott, which include

True Detective Season 4 (Review)

11 July 2024

I am of the opinion that the first season of True Detective is one of the best season of any series ever made. It had iconic characters, a very strong underlying philosophy, a crime mystery that intertwined with supernat

Deadbeat at Dawn (1988) (Review)

5 June 2024

What better time to immerse yourself in the distinctive realm of 1988's exploitation films than now? These movies, adept at seizing on contemporary trends, niche genres, or sensational content, often find their place in

Fargo Season 5 (Review)

9 February 2024

I wait for very, very few things in the film and series category with more excitement and enthusiasm than for a new season of Fargo . Why is that? Well, because over the years, Fargo has spoiled me with some of the fines

Leave the World Behind (2023) (Review)

3 January 2024

I don't often pay much attention to the Top 10 Films on Netflix on any given day. Most of the time, they are far from being my cup of tea - either superhero flicks, comedies I find unfunny or cheesy romantic flicks that

When Evil Lurks (2023) (Review)

26 November 2023

Offering a unique and depraved spin on the possessed story structure, ' When Evil Lurks ' doesn’t hold back on any punches, guaranteeing a cult following for years to come. The fall weather’s biggest strength is the

The Nun II (2023) (Review)

28 October 2023

I feel like I should review a horror film that I've seen at the cinema in the month of October. Disappointingly, though, the offer was extremely limited. I had not heard very good things about the latest Exorcist movie,

Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023) (Review)

23 August 2023

Ironically, I've been looking forward to the new - and final - Indiana Jones for many years now, but once it hit the cinemas I didn't rush in to watch it. It was a combination of being busy, travelling and trying to avoi

John Wick: Chapter 4 (2023) (Review)

18 July 2023

John Wick: Chapter 4 dials up the action, scope, and length for one of the best action films in recent memory, setting the precedent for what makes a great franchise. Initially meant for a 2021 release, action fans and K

Creed III (2023) (Review)

3 April 2023

Though an improvement over its predecessor, Creed III falls short of adding anything fresh to the franchise and fails to take enough risks to be memorable. Michael B. Jordan’s directorial debut was no easy feat, taking

Bones and All (2022) (Review)

6 March 2023

Though not perfect, ' Bones and All' is a daring horror romance that’ll leave audiences squirming for more. Practically anything Timothée Chalamet is in attracts Gen Zs to the theatre, and it’s nice to know there are a f

Capitani Season 2 (Review)

11 February 2023

At one point in 2022, I decided that I wanted to watch some sort of crime drama, but ideally something with short episodes - nothing bordering on a full hour. Then, I stumbled upon Capitani , which intrigued me in severa

The Banshees of Inisherin (2022) (Review)

26 January 2023

Most movie fanatics agree that Martin McDonagh has crafted three worthwhile full-length films throughout his career (In Bruges, Seven Psychopaths, and Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri), with his fourth and lates

Thor: Love and Thunder (2022) (Review)

24 July 2022

Even the biggest anti-Marvel champions can admit the success of the superhero genre in the 21st century is an unparalleled piece in film we haven’t experienced before. Now it being 14 years since Iron Man and 30-plus M

Incastrati (2022) (Review)

1 April 2022

At some point last month, I felt like watching a comedy series - that doesn't happen often, since I'm not exactly a big fan of most recent comedies, be it series or feature films. I had a recommendation from my mum - an

Lamb (2021) (Review)

10 January 2022

Noomi Rapace continues to showcase her acting-chops in what many will look back on as one of the strangest yet unparalleled experiences in Lamb. Lamb made several headlines in 2021 for its original yet seemingly out-of-t

Spencer (2021) (Review)

18 December 2021

Kristen Stewart proves to be one of the most versatile and appealing actors with 2021’s Spencer, an immaculate yet patient film regarding mental illness, abuse, and the Royal Family. Biopics present the challenge of re

Pig (2021) (Review)

12 November 2021

Nicholas Cage has reinvented himself in recent memory, proving himself to be a masterful actor if presented in the proper role, with Pig being his best performance in years. If I told you right after the Wicker Man came
