The Accountant 2 (2025)
77%
2.5/5
“...The Accountant 2 is a gift hamper intended to contain something for everyone. There are a handful of brutal action sequences, there’s the somewhat convoluted and murky plot – and then there’s a surprising amount of laidback buddy-comedy stuff...” –

“While conventional entertainment value may not be the film’s strength, Garland and Mendoza have taken some impressive risks in throwing many of the rules of drama out the window.” –

“Sadly, Bad Genius fails to fulfil its early promise, especially when it comes to subverting the English-language stereotype of Asian students as brainy but straitlaced.” –

A Working Man (2025)

2/5
“Statham’s furrowed-brow under-emoting is supposed to hold it all together, along with all the dramatic backlighting... But he’s visibly some way past his physical peak; certainly there’s no effort to persuade us that he does his own stunts.” –

The Cats of Gokogu Shrine (2024)
4/5
“..if you don’t like cats, do you even really like cinema? For us sensible people, anyway, the film offers many of the same pleasures as the most durable of all genres on YouTube.” –

“...this isn’t far from what video games used to look like in the 1990s. In a present-day context the effect is slightly uncanny, simply because it’s no longer the norm.” –

“For those on Leigh’s wavelength, Hard Truths is his funniest film in many years, and as emotionally truthful as the title promises, despite a few flickers of sentimentality around the edges.” –

Inside (2024)
3/5
“[Charles Williams'] style has a comparable heaviness, with pointed cutaways to symbolic objects, brief flashbacks to scenes better left to the imagination, and more brooding music than is needed.” –
