Bogart: Life Comes in Flashes (2024) 88% 3/5 EDIT “Bogiephiles who know their Sahara from their Sirocco may not find much new here, but anyone interested in early-to-mid-20th-century Hollywood history will discover plenty to spark further investigation. ” – Empire Magazine Dec 10, 2024 Full Review My Name is Alfred Hitchcock (2022) 93% 4/5 EDIT “With its singular design and two-hour runtime, this isn’t aimed at casual moviegoers. But for film buffs and Hitchcock fans, it’s a refreshing, essential alternative to the usual fodder.” – Empire Magazine Jul 24, 2023 Full Review Anomalisa (2015) 92% 4/5 EDIT “More emotionally complex than many humans you'll see on screen in 2016, their grapples with loneliness will pull powerfully on your heartstrings, no puppet pun intended.” – Digital Spy Jul 11, 2016 Full Review The Rover (2014) 67% EDIT “A cautionary tale with deceptive genre trappings, The Rover is an unconventional, challenging but rewarding watch with riveting performances and assured direction.” – Film4 Aug 15, 2014 Full Review Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues (2013) 74% EDIT “Burgundy's back, and fans of the original won't be disappointed: the madness is turned up to eleven and the whole cast are on form.” – Film4 Dec 20, 2013 Full Review Closed Circuit (2013) 43% EDIT “Closed Circuit zips along nicely and has a decent stab at being a serious contemporary thriller, but feels too contained for its far-reaching ideas.” – Film4 Oct 25, 2013 Full Review The Call (2013) 44% 2/5 EDIT “The kind of clichd nonsense so common in the mid-'90s, it's a throwback - and not necessarily in a good way.” – Empire Magazine Sep 16, 2013 Full Review Pieta (2012) 73% EDIT “Dark and twisted but without the depth to back it up, Piet is determined to provoke controversy at the expense of characterisation.” – Film4 Sep 6, 2013 Full Review Elysium (2013) 64% EDIT “Visually stunning and with flashes of inspired genius, Elysium shows promise but is let down by an uneven structure, weak characterisation and an over-reliance on extended fight scenes.” – Film4 Aug 19, 2013 Full Review Eden (2012) 85% 3/5 EDIT “A solid, well-acted film sadly bereft of the threat and drama required to truly convey the horror of Chong Kim's situation.” – Empire Magazine Jul 15, 2013 Full Review Skyfall (2012) 92% 4/5 EDIT “The Bond cocktail is given another good hard shake, and the result is not just a cracking entry in the franchise but also a fitting tribute to 007 in his fiftieth cinematic year. Cheers!” – Film4 Oct 22, 2012 Full Review I Saw the Devil (2010) 83% 3/5 EDIT “Violent, visceral and vengeful: a catalogue of torture with frustratingly little else to maintain the interest.” – Film4 Apr 27, 2011 Full Review
