Balance, Not Symmetry (2019) 0% “There are many moments to savour here, and not just for Biffy obsessives.” – The Big Issue Aug 1, 2019 Full Review Brightburn (2019) 57% “Despite cheekily piggybacking on existing mythologies, Brightburn still feels underwritten to a frustrating degree and is nowhere near as subversive as it thinks it is.” – The Big Issue Jun 28, 2019 Full Review Booksmart (2019) 96% “The hilarious high-school movie invites comparisons to Superbad - but it's much better.” – The Big Issue May 30, 2019 Full Review Dragged Across Concrete (2018) 76% “As well as an evocatively harsh name suitable for any disreputable grindhouse movie from the 1970s, Dragged Across Concrete could also accurately describe the feeling of watching this morally murky and painfully methodical crime thriller.” – The Big Issue Apr 18, 2019 Full Review At Eternity's Gate (2018) 79% 4/5 “You emerge from the cinema looking at the world anew. What more could any artist ask of an account of their life?” – The Big Issue Mar 29, 2019 Full Review Border (2018) 97% 4/5 “The result is an earthy, unpredictable fable interspersed with moments of bleak Nordic beauty and a movie well worth sniffing out.” – The Big Issue Mar 6, 2019 Full Review Instant Family (2018) 82% 3/5 “The version of Instant Family that exists is overblown, sometimes jarring and often corny but for all its weird cocktail of earnestness and crassness, its heart is undoubtedly in the right place.” – The Big Issue Feb 14, 2019 Full Review Vice (2018) 64% 3/5 “The result is an enthusiastically disrespectful biopic, and while it might not fully succeed in revealing the psychology of Dick Cheney...it does at least illuminate some of the murkier chapters of his zigzag path to power.” – The Big Issue Jan 23, 2019 Full Review Stan & Ollie (2018) 93% “By focusing on the last hurrah of a dazzling dual career, Stan & Ollie feels brisker than most cradle-to-grave biopics while still allowing director Jon S Baird ample time to linger on the stage performances.” – The Big Issue Jan 11, 2019 Full Review The Old Man & the Gun (2018) 93% “The result is a lovingly crafted swansong infused with a warmth that thankfully never descends into schmaltz.” – The Big Issue Dec 5, 2018 Full Review The Girl in the Spider's Web (2018) 38% “It is played as a sight gag but it also works as a metaphor: Lisbeth may be the perfect hero for our troubled times but with The Girl In The Spider's Web she has yet to find her ideal vehicle.” – The Big Issue Nov 20, 2018 Full Review They Live (1988) 87% “As paranoid invasion movies go, They Live is a clamorous, mob-handed, unashamed riot, even if Carpenter - a canny hustler who knows a thing or two about street fighting - keeps a sly stiletto of an ending in reserve.” – The Big Issue Oct 25, 2018 Full Review “It does all seem faintly ridiculous. The interiors of Attilan look bland, bare and brutalistic, while the costuming and production design manage neither grandeur or grit.” – Guardian Sep 4, 2017 Full Review One Direction: This Is Us (2013) 64% 3/5 “The young stars generally come off as affable and level-headed considering their unprecedented success, although character traits begin to emerge amid the gang larks.” – The List Aug 29, 2013 Full Review 2 Guns (2013) 64% 3/5 “Walter Hill - veteran action director and unofficial godfather of the squabbling buddy picture - might approve of the stripped-down, Ronseal-esque sentiment, even if the execution is over-elaborate.” – The List Aug 14, 2013 Full Review Red Dawn (2012) 15% 2/5 “The action is generally well-staged, although watching teenagers building car bombs and cracking jokes about Call Of Duty feels like something to be endured rather than enjoyed.” – The List Mar 15, 2013 Full Review Parker (2013) 41% 2/5 “Hackford approaches his task as if he's seen one of the duffer Elmore Leonard movie adaptations of recent years, or at least had one described to him.” – The List Mar 8, 2013 Full Review
