Zach Cregger takes on two taboos:

1. Developing a franchise film.
2. Based on a video game.

And delivers 100% entertainment value.

I'm not a RE perfectionist, but this seems like a glorious foot in the door to a new look Raccoon City.

Long live Scorsese season at @cineworld.bsky.social.

This one could break into Top 3 Scorsese. Going from 'Raging Bull' straight into this is an ALL TIME pivot. Master craftsman.

Spectacular in size and scope, 'The Odyssey' is more big screen magic from Sir Chris.

Interesting to see how he goes forward from here, not just in terms of ambition, but the dialogue-heavy scenes are so weak. From one out-of-focus IMAX close up to another...

After four big pic outings, Tom Holland's Spiderman legacy finally starts to find its feet.

Keeping this appealing cast of surrounding characters involved will be key, otherwise the 2nd trilogy could go all black-eyed and bust phat webz fast.

Went to @cineworld.bsky.social's 50th anniversary screening of 'Taxi Driver' this evening.

Had never seen it before, so went for the big screen experience. Turns out it's quite good (shock).

Not so New York, New York. Unbelievable that the score was the wax on a pimp's turntable that whole time. Reaffirms a very popular stance that Scorsese is the greatest & most important American filmma...

A ★★★★ review of The Invite (2026)
I love how 'The Invite' has come out of nowhere to be one of the finest 'firing on all cylinders' adult comedies since the Apatow era. Very fittingly, it's Rogen's improv (or, at least, that's how it ...

My Mubi subscription is going to get demolished with all the Reichardt filmography I need to catch up on.

A ★★★★ review of The Mastermind (2025)
Kelly Reichardt's brand of ambitious simpletons getting hopelessly caught up in pursuits of the American Dream is absolute god tier cinema. Coen brothers, but with more subtlety. Sometimes.

With a longer runtime than expected, Project Hail Mary grips every beat but with pace & care.

Lord & Miller bringing bums back to seats with entertaining and visually stunning sci-fi. No-one else could've piloted this better than Baby Goose.

Brazil is absolutely cooking on the global stage right now.

A timely & important film that touches on a grim past whilst balancing its modern views.

Another example of the world needing to learn from history, but with added Wagner charisma.

My phone heard Bob Mortimer mention Harry Enfield in his audiobook and now I'm being offered tickets to the latter on Instagram.

I love being constantly marketed to. Jokes on them because I have way less disposable income than they think.
