Baby Driver (2017)

  • Wright, Edgar
  • 2017, Edgar Wright, UK, USA
  • 1 Comment

Edgar Wrightโ€™s engaging if offbeat heist film ticks like clockwork, and is accompanied by a terrific iPod playlist for a soundtrack.

World’s End, The (2013)

  • Wright, Edgar
  • 2013, Edgar Wright, UK
  • 3 Comments

A meta-comedy that is conscious about its fun-ness, though not all of the gags hit the sweet spot in this final installment of Edgar Wright’s ‘Cornetto’ trilogy.

Last Night in Soho (2021)

  • Wright, Edgar
  • 2021, Edgar Wright, UK
  • Leave a comment

Nightmares donโ€™t get any more intense and slicker than in Edgar Wrightโ€™s latest genre-mashing effortโ€”a fun, psychological thriller about a young woman who discovers that she can time-travel through her dreams.

Macbeth (2015)

  • Kurzel, Justin
  • 2015, France, Justin Kurzel, UK
  • 2 Comments

Feels modern in full-throttle blood-spurting style, yet also wholly in period with Shakespearean-speak โ€“ a violent, beautiful if occasionally emotionally distancing screen adaptation of the famous text.

Rescue, The (2021)

  • Others
  • 2021, Documentary, UK, USA

The Oscar-winning directors of ‘Free Solo’ tackle with lucidity and suspense the incredible international rescue efforts of a group of Thai boys trapped deep in a flooded cave back in 2018.

Blithe Spirit (1945)

Whimsicality meets witticism in this delightful supernatural comedy adapted by Lean from Noel Cowardโ€™s sensational record-breaking theatre hit.

American Honey (2016)

  • Arnold, Andrea
  • 2016, Andrea Arnold, UK, USA
  • 1 Comment

Thereโ€™s both a sense of energy and listlessness to the filmmaking, with a story or two waiting to pop out, but that never materializes through the course of this sprawling, ambitious road movie.

Last Duel, The (2021)

  • Scott, Ridley
  • 2021, Ridley Scott, UK, USA
  • 5 Comments

Truth is the weakest currency in Ridley Scottโ€™s generally solid stab at a Rashomon-esque historical epic set in medieval France during the Hundred Yearsโ€™ War.ย

Fish Tank (2009)

  • Arnold, Andrea, Criterion Collection
  • 2009, Andrea Arnold, UK
  • 4 Comments

Flies the British social realism flag sky-highโ€”this is a remarkably piercing yet sensual work by Andrea Arnold, not to mention featuring a breathtaking performance by Katie Jarvis.

Cow (2021)

  • Arnold, Andrea
  • 2021, Andrea Arnold, Documentary, UK
  • Leave a comment

Arnold makes a detour into documentary filmmaking as her camera brings us up close and personal with several cows in a dairy farm, capturing their magnificence as well as the sheer drudgery of their reality.
