You're Cordially Invited (2025)
48%
“There’s nothing revolutionary happening in You’re Cordially Invited, but by feeling like something Dan Ackroyd and Goldie Hawn might’ve starred in in 1987, it brings back a welcome large scale frivolity to the mainstream comedy movie. More please.” –

Beetlejuice Beetlejuice (2024)
75%
“Beetlejuice Beetlejuice isn’t a masterpiece or even really an amazing film, but it is a good time and a couple of laughs, which in the comedy-starved cinemas of today, is a nice thing indeed.” –

All My Friends Hate Me (2021)
89%
5/5
“This disturbingly relatable dark British comedy/thriller does an amazing job of turning social anxiety and general awkwardness into excruciating cinematic terror, while also being very funny.” –

3.5/5
“Bones and All takes its ridiculous-seeming premise entirely seriously and presents it with effortless authenticity and an admirably understated sense of its time period.” –

Black Panther: Wakanda Forever (2022)
84%
3/5
“It's difficult to think of another instance of an actor's death impacting a movie's plot to this degree, and you can't deny that the film is at its most powerful when it stops to honour Boseman.” –

Mister Organ (2022)
95%
4/5
“It's one of the best-looking documentaries ever made in this country-cinematographer Dominic Fryer actually manages to do something new and interesting with 1:1 interviews, and certain locations take on a truly sinister quality thanks to creative framing.” –

Don't Worry Darling (2022)
38%
2/5
“The film clearly wants to make salient points about patriarchal control and toxic/fragile masculinity, but they're undercut by the blunt storytelling and nonsensical denouement.” –

Punch (2022)

“The stifling homophobia of small-town New Zealand permeates this heartfelt Kiwi drama featuring a supporting performance from English actor Tim Roth.” –

Good Luck to You, Leo Grande (2022)
94%
“Emma Thompson's winning nature as a performer helps sustain this two-hander with good intentions and a wobbly tone.” –

The Gray Man (2022)
45%
2/5
“Glaring in its lack of texture or flavour, this only really succeeds as a succession of mildly diverting bullet-riddled set pieces.” –

Where the Crawdads Sing (2022)
34%
3.5/5
“The haphazard storytelling eventually coalesces into a more coherent whole, and as dismissive as I felt earlier in the movie, the climax got me in the gut. And the tear ducts.” –

Thor: Love and Thunder (2022)
63%
3/5
“There are more tangible laughs to be found here than in the vast majority of films of this scale, but this ultimately feels like more of a collection of nice moments than a story that necessarily needed to be told.” –

“One of Aotearoa's most iconic leaders gets an appropriately uplifting biopic in this respectful portrait anchored by heavyweight performances from Miriama McDowell and Rena Owen.” –

Nude Tuesday (2022)
86%
“A Kiwi comedy truly unlike anything ever seen or heard -- in New Zealand and beyond -- Nude Tuesday is a fearlessly uproarious film admirably committed to its own particular kind of strangeness.” –

Top Gun: Maverick (2022)

5/5
“You don't have to have dad energy to embrace this movie. It's awesomely old fashioned and impressively modern at the same time. Fists will pump, eyes will mist.” –

Operation Mincemeat (2021)

“The ground-level realities of military intelligence operations make fine fodder for this entertaining true story behind a huge gambit undertaken by the British during World War II.” –

Deep Water (2022)
35%
3/5
“Deep Water doesn't quite represent the triumphant return of the star-studded erotic thriller... But it's a fun way to spend two hours and features two attractive leads messing with each other in a manner that sustains interest.” –

The Souvenir Part II (2021)

5/5
“A less literal film than the first one, Hogg eventually strides headlong into something between David Lynch and Charlie Kaufman-style meta playfulness. It's wonderful. This one is guaranteed to leave you feeling some kind of way.” –
