Movie Review – Last Night in Soho
โ
Last Night in Soho blew me away. From the very first scene, I was captivated by Thomasin McKenzie. I first saw her in Jojo Rabbitย — she was great in that – but she was stupendous in Soho. I’d label my reaction to her as mesmerized throughout the entire film. I want to see a lot…

Movie Review – A Mouthful of Air
โ
I’m grading this movie on its technical and artistic merits. Because if I graded it on how it made me feel, I’d give it an F. Maybe that was the point — to make the audience feel like crap. Before the movie begins, there’s an on-screen warning — perhaps too late at that point —…

Movie Rewatch:ย Austin Powers 3 – Goldmember
โ
Just as it took less than a hundred years to go from the first powered flight to flying being an everyday method of commuting like the bus or a train, I wonder if weโll ever see the day when time travel goes from being the latest technological miracle to something we use to fix trivial…

Movie Review – Halloween Kills
โ
I’ve been waiting for Halloween Kills since Christmas. I love my horror flicks and walk into the theater giddy with excitement. So here’s my thought as the credits roll — they totally missed the boat. For one, if they followed the formula of the last thirteen, we would have seen drugs, sex, and naked bodies.…

Movie Review – The Last Duel
โ
This is a hard movie to watch, but at the same time, it should be watched. That makes it difficult to give it a grade. If I grade it on the enjoyment I’d give it a very low score. But if I grade it with respect for the narrative, the message, and the skill of…

The Giant James Bond Rewatch – Climax! Casino Royale (1954)
During the course of doing my bit of the Giant James Bond Rewatch, there were references to Climax! Casino Royale which is the very first screen outing for Bond; an episode of Climax! from 1954, less than three years after the novel was written. Seeing as how it was a television episode from the other…

Indie Movie Review – Demigod
Film makers have their own stylesโฆwhoโd have thought it! Actually, I can spot the big ones: the gothic imagery of Tim Burton, the breathtaking visuals of Luc Besson, or the exquisitely choreographed violence of John Woo. I have to admit that Iโm not as au fait as some others, the ones who can watch…

Movie Review –ย Gunpowder Milkshake
โ
In case you havenโt noticed, things have been a bit untoward for the last couple of years. As part of my rehab Iโve been making the effort to get back into the cinema at least once a week. The upshot of this, combined with various family commitments, means that I tend to go and see…

No Time To Die ends with an exclamation point but is filled with question marks
โ
Let me say up front that I really enjoyed No Time To Die. At least, I loved parts of it; the most important part: Bond. I want to make that clear because what’s going to follow will make it seem otherwise. I’d recommend to anyone who likes action movies that No Time To Dieย is a…

Indie Movie Review – The Isle
โ
I can almost hear everyone whoโs read my previous mutterings chant along with me when I say that horror really isnโt my thing. Fortunately, the RunPee family does have a resident horror expert and she usually gets the first pick of them. However, this is a different kettle of fishโฆ The Isle might look like…
