Back to Black (2024) 35% 1/5 EDIT “The final scene, in particular, with its completely and utterly baseless, sensationalist implications, made me physically gasp in horror.” – London Evening Standard Apr 9, 2024 Full Review Mothers' Instinct (2024) 55% 2/5 EDIT “It is of course pleasurable to watch Chastain and Hathaway trying to out-psych each other, but the plotting here is slight to say the least.” – London Evening Standard Mar 29, 2024 Full Review The Three Musketeers: Part II - Milady (2023) 87% EDIT “Silly as it is sexy, and the sort of thing that will largely connect with teenagers who probably won’t have the patience for reading the dialogue off the bottom of the screen.” – London Evening Standard Dec 15, 2023 Full Review Napoleon (2023) 58% 4/5 EDIT “Phoenix, sometimes laugh-out-loud funny and chilling in the same scene, is as compelling as he always is... But it’s Vanessa Kirby who, much like Ryan Gosling in Barbie, upstages her title character. ” – London Evening Standard Nov 15, 2023 Full Review The Kitchen (2023) 89% 2/5 EDIT “So The Kitchen is a mood piece, really: it’s just that the mood is unfortunately not very interesting at all.” – London Evening Standard Oct 17, 2023 Full Review Killers of the Flower Moon (2023) 93% 5/5 EDIT “Despite the showy casting of the leading men, it becomes obvious very quickly that the real meat in Killers of The Flower Moon is the women’s stories.” – London Evening Standard Oct 16, 2023 Full Review One Life (2023) 91% 5/5 EDIT “It is, unquestionably, Hopkins’s film.” – London Evening Standard Oct 16, 2023 Full Review Foe (2023) 24% 2/5 EDIT “Davis, though, is shooting for something far grander: a kind of claustrophobic, The Shining-style psychological horror. Sadly he has neither the script nor the imagination to do this.” – London Evening Standard Oct 11, 2023 Full Review Lemmy (2010) 83% 4/5 EDIT “It is an inspiring film not because of the whole sticking-to-his-guns thing, but because of the purity of it.” – Empire Magazine May 25, 2021 Full Review Patti Cake$ (2017) 86% 4/5 EDIT “A story we've seen told a hundred times before feels fresh thanks to Danielle Macdonald's brilliant performance, handling both the drama and the rapping in style.” – Empire Magazine Aug 31, 2017 Full Review SHOT! The Psycho-Spiritual Mantra of Rock (2016) 94% 4/5 EDIT “As well as a gifted photographer, Rock is a raconteur, with the subjects of his stories needing no introduction. But the real stars of the show here are his pictures, and that is as it should be.” – Empire Magazine Jul 24, 2017 Full Review Aftermath (2017) 40% 4/5 EDIT “After a depressingly anonymous start, the rebirth of Arnie finally hits its stride with a great, low key performance that should get him back to where he belongs in the public consciousness.” – Empire Magazine Mar 23, 2017 Full Review Arsenal (2017) 3% 1/5 EDIT “The combined charms of Nicolas Cage and John Cusack might just have been able to save this made-for-VOD thriller, but they are both left on the sidelines.” – Empire Magazine Feb 20, 2017 Full Review Operation Chromite (2016) 40% 3/5 EDIT “It's strange to watch a war epic and think that what it could do with less of are the gravelly Liam Neeson speeches. But that is exactly what happens here.” – Empire Magazine Jan 9, 2017 Full Review I Am Not a Serial Killer (2016) 93% 4/5 EDIT “O'Brien here both successfully reintroduces Max Records to the world, and elicits Christopher Lloyd's best performance in a long time. His film deserves cult classic status at the very least.” – Empire Magazine Dec 8, 2016 Full Review Dog Eat Dog (2016) 51% 3/5 EDIT “Hackneyed and somewhat dated Tarantino-isms abound. But for the committed fan of such things, there is more than enough to enjoy here ...” – Empire Magazine Nov 16, 2016 Full Review Gimme Danger (2016) 95% 3/5 EDIT “The Stooges' story is a natural fit for the silver screen. Unfortunately, superfan Jim Jarmusch's love letter to them does not quite do it justice.” – Empire Magazine Nov 10, 2016 Full Review Rupture (2016) 18% 2/5 EDIT “Despite an intriguing premise, an impossible-to-buy plot contrivance and a deeply unsatisfying ending put paid to this sci-fi psycho-thriller.” – Empire Magazine Nov 2, 2016 Full Review
