3/5
“With an endlessly expendable worker as its protagonist, Mickey 17 could be a really pointed allegory about human exploitation, but the film Bong has ended up making is both bluntly obvious and unfocused. ” –

“Perkins doesn't use up his film's brisk running time waxing philosophically. He's far more interested in staging gory decapitations, eviscerations and disembowelings. ” –

Joker: Folie à Deux (2024)

4/5
“Phoenix and Phillips go for broke again with a sequel that is equally bold and daring — not least in the way that it doubles down on the first film's rejection of Hollywood's usual comic-book playbook.” –

Lee (2023)

3/5
“It seems the screenwriters feel the need to hold the viewer’s hand at every step of the way. Indeed, the less you know about Miller and her work, and possibly the less you know about World War Two, the more successful the film will probably be. ” –

4/5
“When the plot kicks in and the action kicks off, Alvarez gets us by the throat, skilfully mixing claustrophobic dread, race-against-time tension and grisly shocks, and taking us on a palm-dampening, seat-gripping, adrenaline-pumping thrill ride.” –
