A Minecraft Movie (2025) 48% 4/4 “Video game films used to be a cursed proposition, but this wins by leaning into the game's aesthetic, digging out what makes it popular, and injecting a self-aware sense of humour that's not a million miles away from The Lego Movie. ” – ABC Radio (Australia) Apr 8, 2025 Full Review Ghostbusters (1984) 95% 5/5 “More than 40 years on from becoming the first big-budget comedy, Ghostbusters continues to sparkle because it remains funny and its premise still works.” – ABC Radio (Australia) Apr 8, 2025 Full Review Disney's Snow White (2025) 40% 3.5/5 “This remake, which admittedly has its own problems, improves on some of the issues in the original, mostly by making its main characters actual characters with depth and emotion and all the things that make them engaging and interesting.” – ABC Radio (Australia) Apr 5, 2025 Full Review The Electric State (2025) 15% 3/5 “The Electric State is akin to a robot that performs its set task, but you know it could have done it so much more efficiently and effectively.” – ABC Radio (Australia) Mar 28, 2025 Full Review Captain America: Brave New World (2025) 48% 3/5 “Cap IV is a... hammer, good for little more than hitting things until all the things are hit. It is not about finesse, or sculpting something beautiful. It just hits, in unsubtle but effective ways, until all the nails have been hammered home.” – Movies Ate My Life Mar 17, 2025 Full Review The Last Journey (2024) 85% 2/5 “Annoyingly contrived and often uncomfortable to watch, but its heart is in the right place and it does offer up some sweetly sentimental moments.” – ABC Radio (Australia) Mar 5, 2025 Full Review Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy (2025) 88% 4/5 “A fun, sparky rom-com with an utterly charming lead, but also a beautiful meditation on grief and the ups-and-downs of parenting and mid-life living.” – ABC Radio (Australia) Feb 23, 2025 Full Review Conclave (2024) 93% 4/5 “A fascinating sermon on the state of the Church and its place in the world, with a Fiennes performance worthy of being put on an altar.” – ABC Radio (Australia) Feb 2, 2025 Full Review Wicked (2024) 87% 3/5 “It has a heart, a brain and courage, but Wicked spends too much time singing and dancing when it should be storytelling. ” – ABC Radio (Australia) Dec 2, 2024 Full Review Red One (2024) 30% 2/5 “If this is what Red One is, don't expect a Red Two.” – ABC Radio (Australia) Nov 23, 2024 Full Review Joker: Folie à Deux (2024) 31% 2/5 “Bold and daring, Joker: Folie a Deux is also deluded. It's a ridiculous misfire that takes an awful long time to get nowhere and struggles to say anything coherent along the way.” – ABC Radio (Australia) Oct 18, 2024 Full Review The Wild Robot (2024) 96% 4/5 “The Wild Robot is a welcome throwback to a time of film-making when things weren't so smug.” – ABC Radio (Australia) Oct 6, 2024 Full Review Alien: Romulus (2024) 80% 4/5 “Romulus is the Alien film you've been waiting for. It's like Covenant, but shorn of the fat, and replacing the mythologising and philosophising with entertaining world-building and genuine terror.” – ABC Radio (Australia) Sep 1, 2024 Full Review Deadpool & Wolverine (2024) 78% 4/5 “It's exactly what a Deadpool movie should be and kudos to Disney for having the brains and balls to let it be that.” – Movies Ate My Life Aug 13, 2024 Full Review Fly Me to the Moon (2024) 65% 3/5 “Fly Me To The Moon is silly and sassy, snappy and jazzy. It plays hard and fast with the truth, but somehow manages to squeeze some heart in among its paint-by-numbers characters” – ABC Radio (Australia) Aug 4, 2024 Full Review Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F (2024) 67% 4/5 “Yes, it opens with literally the same song, but this feels more like it's singing from the same songbook as opposed to doing a bad cover version.” – ABC Radio (Australia) Jul 11, 2024 Full Review Inside Out 2 (2024) 91% 4/5 “Pixar's real triumph is making something that anyone who was ever a teenager can probably relate to. Inside Out 2 sees you, knows you and is you.” – ABC Radio (Australia) Jun 26, 2024 Full Review Jim Henson Idea Man (2024) 98% 4/5 “Henson was gone too soon, and this doco is a great gateway into his incredible legacy.” – ABC Radio (Australia) Jun 11, 2024 Full Review Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga (2024) 90% 4/5 “Here we are with the fifth film in the Mad Max saga, which, again, looks nothing like the 1979 original. Hell - this film doesn't even need Max - just the "Mad" bit. ” – ABC Radio (Australia) Jun 3, 2024 Full Review Freud's Last Session (2023) 44% 3/5 “A well-acted conversation, and for the most part that works.” – Movies Ate My Life Apr 29, 2024 Full Review Civil War (2024) 81% 4/5 “This is Apocalypse Now from the journalists' point of view. Like Willard's journey up river, their cross-country trip is a descent into the madness of America, with their Kurtz-like figure happening to be the President of the USA.” – ABC Radio (Australia) Apr 25, 2024 Full Review Irish Wish (2024) 42% 2/5 “Destined to become a rainy hungover Sunday go-to for those who desire a brain-off love buzz. And that is all.” – Movies Ate My Life Apr 22, 2024 Full Review Wicked Little Letters (2023) 80% 4/5 “In post-WWI Britain, where women can't vote and are frowned upon for pretty much everything, letting loose with a few vulgarities can say so much, as it does in this charmingly potty-mouthed dramedy.” – ABC Radio (Australia) Apr 18, 2024 Full Review Oppenheimer (2023) 93% 5/5 “It's the bomb.” – ABC Radio (Australia) Apr 1, 2024 Full Review Force of Nature: The Dry 2 (2024) 65% 2/5 “Eric Bana is a good actor. So why do I find him so underwhelming as Aaron Falk in The Dry movies? ” – ABC Radio (Australia) Mar 29, 2024 Full Review
