Kim Min-hee in The Woman Who Ran

The Woman Who Ran (2021) – Movie Review

It is easy to imagine a good movie being made with the concept at the heart of The Woman Who Ran; I certainly had ample opportunity to, because its brief 77-minute runtime nevertheless felt like an excruciating slog.

Jolt (2021) – Movie Review

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.

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

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.
