Movie Review – Tom & Jerry: The Movie
—
Tom and Jerry was as cute as I was expecting. It was fun and full of entertainment. We were in a sold out theater half filled with children and the other half adults. I’m pretty sure I heard more adults laughing. We took our eight year old granddaughter with us and she was thrilled. I…

GHD Indie Movie Review – The Map Of Tiny Perfect Things
The Map Of Tiny Perfect Things is the latest addition to the Groundhog Day time loop sub-genre so there’s a certain amount of stuff that is known from the start; the protagonist is experiencing one day over and over again. Having realised what is happening, they learn to live with the situation by learning what’s…

Movie Review – Nomadland
—
in Drama
Atmosphere galore, but very little plot. Far from a happy film, there’s some good work here if you like deep character studies. Sometimes you see a movie and you know it’s a good one — by which I mean well-made, acted, and directed — but you still don’t like it. Nomadland was one of those…

Indie Movie Review – Werewolf (Wilkołak)
I’m ashamed to say that I know very little about Poland. I know nothing about the arts, the culture, the history, or the people. I once knew a woman of Polish descent, but that would be a bit like me saying I’m of German descent… theoretically true, but practically pointless. All I know for sure…

Indie Movie Review – Flesh Is Heir To
“A black cat crossing your path signifies that the animal is going somewhere.” Groucho Marx has a deeper philosophy than this film. When I get a link for a film, I look for the appropriate IMDb page. Partly to see if I recognise any of the cast, but mainly to make sure I’ve got the…

Indie Documentary Review – Clapboard Jungle: Surviving the Independent Film Business
I’m assuming that, like me, you’ve seen more than your fair share of films. And, yes, I know that when you start assuming you make an ass of you and ming… or something like that. I find that there are times when a film may be less than fully captivating and your concentration might start…

Indie Movie Review – Incision
I’m fairly sure that I’ve said before that I’m not a huge fan of the horror/slasher/gore sub-genres, so it didn’t take long for me to realise that Incision wasn’t going to be my cup of tea. But, as has been demonstrated many times before, just because it’s not my ‘thing’ doesn’t mean I can’t watch it.…

Movie Review – The World To Come
—
I was really excited to see this movie. From the trailers it seemed like it was going to be a steamy look inside of two lonely women stuck on dreary farms. Perhaps a forbidden affair that was obviously going to explode in their faces. All these thoughts were running through my head as the movie…

First View Movie Review – Gosford Park
—
Ah, yes… a British historical drama set in the early twentieth century created and written by Julian Fellowes. Oh… hang on… that’s Downton Abbey. Gosford Park is, in fact, a British historical drama set in the early twentieth century created and written by Julian Fellowes… bugger. I’m being whimsical. There are similarities between the two works and for…
