Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness (2022) 73% 4/5 EDIT “It's great to see a Marvel film that has a balance between the director's style and the needs of the studio. It's great to see a Marvel film that pops with colour and feels close to its comic book origins without being too obvious.” – The New Paper (Singapore) May 5, 2022 Full Review The Matrix Resurrections (2021) 63% 2.5/5 EDIT “The Matrix Resurrections is a flawed if fascinating coda to the saga.” – The New Paper (Singapore) Dec 29, 2021 Full Review Red Notice (2021) 37% 3/5 EDIT “Red Notice has never pitched itself as anything other than a fun treasure hunt put together by pals. It's an easy, non-taxing watch. It isn't particularly memorable though.” – The New Paper (Singapore) Nov 18, 2021 Full Review Ghostbusters: Afterlife (2021) 63% 3/5 EDIT “The 3-star score comes with a caveat. Ghostbusters: Afterlife works as a fun, entertaining kids film, albeit one so possessed by nostalgia it may want to consider an exorcism.” – The New Paper (Singapore) Nov 18, 2021 Full Review Finch (2021) 74% 3/5 EDIT “As he proved in Cast Away, Tom Hanks solo can keep anyone's attention for hours. Paired with a rather good dog actor and some very good effects for Jeff, this is an easy watch.” – The New Paper (Singapore) Nov 12, 2021 Full Review The Harder They Fall (2021) 88% 4/5 EDIT “This is one of the most entertaining films of the year and in Samuel, it gives us a new name to watch out for.” – The New Paper (Singapore) Nov 12, 2021 Full Review Halloween Kills (2021) 38% 2/5 EDIT “The makers do not even have a handle on the big message of this film, as mob justice fuelled by an idiotic chant of "Evil dies tonight!" is shown to be a bad thing... and a good thing.” – The New Paper (Singapore) Nov 5, 2021 Full Review Venom: Let There Be Carnage (2021) 58% 2.5/5 EDIT “Even at a tight 97 minutes, it is clear that the comic book dream of having the iconic symbiotes face off was the goal - they just were not sure how to fill the time getting there.” – The New Paper (Singapore) Oct 14, 2021 Full Review No Time to Die (2021) 83% 4.5/5 EDIT “It's bold and ambitious, yet it exudes confidence and moves with such drive, you do not feel most of its admittedly long 163-minute running time.” – The New Paper (Singapore) Sep 29, 2021 Full Review Malignant (2021) 77% 3/5 EDIT “Malignant is nonsense, but it is a fun diversion as it almost becomes a parody of itself.” – The New Paper (Singapore) Sep 17, 2021 Full Review Dune (2021) 83% 4/5 EDIT “It is a thrilling telling of the tale that manages to make the stately stunning and give what could be a slow procession some much-needed pace.” – The New Paper (Singapore) Sep 17, 2021 Full Review Kate (2021) 45% 2/5 EDIT “This instead will pass the time as some violent wallpaper, albeit with a pattern that will trigger deja vu.” – The New Paper (Singapore) Sep 17, 2021 Full Review Cinderella (2021) 41% 2/5 EDIT “While Cinderella will have its fans (people love a singalong no matter what), this is an update that is neither needed nor likely to enter the pantheon of classic adaptations.” – The New Paper (Singapore) Sep 10, 2021 Full Review Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings (2021) 92% 4/5 EDIT “Shang-Chi takes Marvel's action choreography to a new level of thrilling and the camera dances with the movement.” – The New Paper (Singapore) Sep 2, 2021 Full Review Sweet Girl (2021) 24% 2/5 EDIT “With a tighter running time and less of a lurch into nonsense, Sweet Girl could have been a great film about a father and daughter on the run with a real point to make.” – The New Paper (Singapore) Aug 27, 2021 Full Review The Witcher: Nightmare of the Wolf (2021) 100% 3/5 EDIT “Nightmare Of The Wolf is more for fans of The Witcher rather than newbies, but there is enough to be enjoyed on its own.” – The New Paper (Singapore) Aug 27, 2021 Full Review The Suicide Squad (2021) 90% 4/5 EDIT “The amazing thing is just how much Gunn can make you care about these killers... You might even feel something for the starfish.” – The New Paper (Singapore) Aug 5, 2021 Full Review Jolt (2021) 40% 2.5/5 EDIT “Jolt is a low-budget B-movie that could have been more.” – The New Paper (Singapore) Jul 29, 2021 Full Review Jungle Cruise (2021) 62% 2/5 EDIT “Jungle Cruise does evoke classic adventure films, but only in that you would rather be watching them than drifting along with this.” – The New Paper (Singapore) Jul 29, 2021 Full Review The Tomorrow War (2021) 51% 2/5 EDIT “In the end, The Tomorrow War turns the end of the world into a damp squib.” – The New Paper (Singapore) Jul 7, 2021 Full Review No Sudden Move (2021) 92% 3.5/5 EDIT “Other than crime, Soderbergh touches on race, industry and corruption, and like many noir flicks, you may not like where the story leaves you but it will stay with you.” – The New Paper (Singapore) Jul 7, 2021 Full Review Black Widow (2021) 79% 3.5/5 EDIT “If Black Widow is truly the final goodbye for Johansson as Natasha (well, you never know), this is a decent exit.” – The New Paper (Singapore) Jul 1, 2021 Full Review Luca (2021) 91% 4/5 EDIT “While the big theme is not as in-your-face compared with other recent Pixar films, Luca still packs in the right amount of charm, character and heart for this fish-out-of-water tale of friendship and finding your path.” – The New Paper (Singapore) Jun 24, 2021 Full Review The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It (2021) 56% 1.5/5 EDIT “The Devil Made Me Do It is so close to a parody, it could be entertaining to watch at home with friends. But paying to watch in a cinema - as this reviewer did - feels like an evening wasted.” – The New Paper (Singapore) Jun 17, 2021 Full Review Friends: The Reunion (2021) 67% 3/5 EDIT “For the most part, it is a nice trip down memory lane. But there are also so many sections to this sitcom Franken-tribute, and at over 160 minutes, even the best of Friends can overstay a welcome.” – The New Paper (Singapore) May 28, 2021 Full Review
