The Suicide Squad (2021) – Movie Review

Definitely an improvement over the first instalment -it could hardly be worse- but not nearly as funny nor as subversive as it thinks itself to be.

Lena Heady and Karen Gillan in Gunpowder Milkshake

Gunpowder Milkshake (2021) – Movie Review

A disappointing John Wick aspirant that fails to live up to the potential of its supporting cast.

Adam Driver and Marion Cotillard in Annette

Annette (2021) – Movie Review

Despite a powerful performance by Adam Driver, Annette’s unsubstantial plot, forgettable lyrics and a nightmarish doll did not work for me.

Scarlett Johansson and Florence Pugh in Black Widow

Black Widow (2021) – Movie Review

Closer to Jason Bourne than previous MCU fare -but not quite enough- Black Widow’s greatest success is its family dynamics.

Roy Chiu in Dear Ex

Dear Ex (2018) – Movie Review

Despite its somewhat scattered nature, Dear Ex skillfully finds comedy in family drama.

Takeru Satoh in Rurouni Kenshin The Final

Rurouni Kenshin: The Final (2021) – Movie Review

If you’re not familiar with Rurouni Kenshin, this isn’t the place to start. But if you’re a fan, The Final (the final what?!) is thoroughly entertaining and the most respectful and accurate recreation of the manga that we’re ever going to see.

Luca (2021) – Movie Review

Much more intimate and personal than other Pixar films, Luca is a delightful summer tale of friendship and discovery.

Noah Jupe, Millicent Simmonds and Emily Blunt in A Quiet Place Part 2

A Quiet Place Part II (2021) – Movie Review

lace, I’m confident you’ll like A Quiet Place Part II, because it keeps all the elements that made the first film great, and not for nothing, also some of its shortcomings.

Bakary Koné in Night of the Kings

Night of the Kings (La nuit des rois) (2021) – Movie Review

Night of the Kings transports us to a beguiling world of magical realism, tales as old as times, and shadowy plots for power or survival.

Weathering with You (Tenki no Ko) (2020) – Movie Review

What draws me about CoMix Wave Films’ style is that it is an approach to art that is deliberately, intensely devoted to portraying the mundane over the extraordinary. Ugly backdrops are made beautiful by the care put into painting them.
