Drop (2025)
84%
3/5
“Drop lets itself down in the final 10 minutes as it descends into silliness and the suspension of belief wanes. It’s a shame as it’s gripping at times and stretches what could have been a quickly tiresome plot device into an entire film.” –

The Front Room (2024)

2/5
“Expected twists never quite materialise, and decent turns from Brandy and Hunter can’t quite save a forgettable horror. Still, it might make you appreciate your mother-in-law.” –

Speak No Evil (2024)
83%
4/5
“While the twist is obvious from the start, the top-notch acting from the cast and the well-timed descent into feelings of discomfort and dread make the film highly watchable.” –

Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One (2023)
96%
3/5
“At times it's like watching a kitsch 1970s Bond movie, and at others, a haunting film noir. The action definitely delivers – be it desert shoot-outs or more train shenanigans – but the plot doesn't make up for it. ” –

The Boogeyman (2023)
61%
3/5
“The Boogeyman is standard horror movie popcorn fare that will do its job of making you jump in the dark and prompt many a fan to check under their bed after watching.” –

Blonde (2022)
42%
3/5
“Blonde does give a refreshing, darker take on Monroe’s Hollywood dream as well as boldly showing the nastier side of American ‘heroes’ such as Joe DiMaggio and JFK. ” –

Three Thousand Years of Longing (2022)
71%
3/5
“Elba and Swinton give good performances and there are some genre-standard moral tales along the way, but it goes on for just a tad too long and doesn’t leave the viewer longing for more.” –

Nope (2022)
83%
4/5
“Whilst Nope nods to - and borrows from - other well-known ‘alien invasion’ films, as well as pop-culture horror, it also manages to be its own unique film, with genuinely impressive twists and well-timed comedy. ” –

Petite Maman (2021)

4/5
“An incredible performance by the twin Sanz sisters and an uplifting, yet brief soundtrack (essentially three songs remixed) played at just the right time make this both a heartwarming and heartbreaking film.” –

Mank (2020)
83%
3/5
“Mank is not quite the 'film of the year' as many touted it, but does faithfully follow in the footsteps of Kane, happily basking in its shadow as well as offering an entertaining, immersive and gloriously dialogue-heavy insight into its writer.” –
