4/4
“brings home the old saw – the truth shall set you free. Ahn’s ultra human, complicated story resonates with anyone who has felt themselves protected by misdirection – a false hope – and everyone who has learned forgiveness and optimism and patience” –

The Courageous (2024)
4/4
“It’s an uncomfortable experience; we feel little empathy, but our hearts break for the children. Uncomfortable? Make that deeply challenging. But a triumph of expression and humanity from award-winning filmmaker Jasmin Gordon and actor Ophélia Kolb. ” –

2/2
“Its not a new idea either in life or on film, but it’s a popular entertainment premise, a destabilising hijacking and threatening government. The action is fast and furious but the experience is more linear than fleshed out and feels like a video game.” –

4/4
“There is a potential of a polluting, toxic open pit mine opening five miles from there; they are downwind. And fewer potential sisters are showing up these days. But they have something we should note, hope and faith. ” –

One to One: John & Yoko (2024)
89%
3/4
“They were able to carry out good deeds while rattling conservative cages. The film moves at a pace, crammed with news footage, an almanac of 70s American history as much as the story of John and Yoko. And yes, Yoko sings. You have been cautioned.” –

“Nicole Kidman’s risky and frankly freaky Holland is turgid, florid, sarcastic, cartoonish, and plenty of fun. Watching Kidman crawl in and out of a second-floor window is worth the price of admission.” –
