Oppenheimer
(2023)
|
Damian Levy
|
As he corrals the world’s scientists to follow behind him Robert Oppenheimer is magnetic, more akin to a cult leader than a lowly whitecoat.

|
In a world where blockbuster films are surrounded by digital landscapes, Barbie’s devotion to practical production is outstanding.

Halloween Ends
(2022)
|
Damian Levy
|
The film has much to say about the effect an angry mob can have when they make a villain out of victims, far more subliminally than 2021’s ‘Halloween Kills’.

Spider-Man: No Way Home
(2021)
|
Damian Levy
|
Dafoe and Molina are the scene stealers in the movie, with a special mention to Dafoe for bringing back the terror he gave me at the age of 6.

Venom: Let There Be Carnage
(2021)
|

|
Andy Serkis is no stranger to the necessities of making a digital character feel tactile, and that shows in his direction.

The Suicide Squad
(2021)
|
Damian Levy
|
'The Suicide Squad' represents the very best that DC films can be, taking the kind of risks that you wouldn't see in a Marvel property.

(2021)
|

It's hard to call something a disappointment if there wasn't much hope for it to begin with.

Black Widow
(2021)
|
Damian Levy
|
While humour is an important part of the film, it's used to serve the tragic story rather than undercut it.

Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins
(2021)
|
Damian Levy
|
A shoddy opening, an intriguing middle, and a deflated conclusion. 'Snake Eyes' is as mixed a bag as they come.

F9 The Fast Saga
(2021)
|
Damian Levy
|
The film flexes the kind of self awareness to push the series into full blown parody, while still showing some mileage left.

Cruella
(2021)
|
Damian Levy
|
The sheer volume of outfits worn by Stone and the rest of the cast, is matched only by the level of detail on each.

Whether it's tears of joy or tears of sadness, Mitchells vs the Machines will have you shedding a few of either or both.

Coffee & Kareem
(2020)
|
Damian Levy
|
The brand of humour relies on shock value, but every now and then it will hit you with something clever that comes along like a slice of pizza in the middle of a low carb diet.

The Harder They Come
(1972)
|
Damian Levy
|
'The Harder They Come' will be a film that's easy to watch for the years to come. Maybe one day we'll fix up the cracks it so expertly exposed a half a century ago

'Attack The Block' was the little film from 2011 that could've but didn't.

Godzilla vs. Kong
(2021)
|
Damian Levy

It sprints through plot and dialogue like it's offended at the suggestion it needs them, and throws only the most basic of foundations together.

Mortal Kombat
(2021)
|
Damian Levy
|
The movie gets props for putting an asian actor front and centre in a blockbuster action film such as this one, but as with all efforts of representation, is it too much to ask for the work to be done right?
