The crazy is back and Margot Robbie returns to the DCEU with plenty of force as the one and only Harley Quinn in the full-on, R-rated, girl gang movie of the year in Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn), and this one is so much fun! Since the events of […]
‘Parasite’ – Review
When you’re seeking original ideas you only have to look to South Korean director Bong Joon-ho who has a made a career out of innovation and crafts cinema that takes his audience for a ride.

‘Midway’ – Review
June 4, 1942. A date of tremendous historical importance which would symbolise the first turning victory of World War II for the Allies and which would showcase one nation’s determination to rise above tragedy and overcome tremendous adversity.

A society is judged on its adherence to the rule of law. But what happens when racial tensions, false evidence and a focus on emotion over logic prevails in the investigation and sentencing of a crime.

‘The Gentlemen’ – Review
Get ready to take a stroll back down the good old alley of classic cockney gangster crime drama because visionary director Guy Ritchie has returned to the old school here with The Gentlemen and it makes for one gnarly time at the cinema. A British drug (McConaughey) lord tries to sell off his highly profitable […]
‘1917’ – Review
When it regards master filmmakers who stand high in the practice of the theatrical arts they don’t come much better than Sam Mendes. Ever since he first stepped behind the camera with 1999’s American Beauty he has produced monumental works of cinema and his latest, 1917, is his most important work to date. Here he […]
