The Kitchen…. Hell’s Kitchen, that is, and the wives of New York gangsters in Hell’s Kitchen, in the 1970s, continue to operate their husbands’ rackets after they’re locked up in prison. As with Can You Ever Forgive Me?, this looks like a second Melissa McCarthy movie that’s worth watching! Perhaps she should just do drama […]
Vice opens on Sept 11th, 2001, as Dick Cheney (Christian Bale, above) is rushed into the Presidential Emergency Operations Centre, so he’s kept out of harm’s way, and then goes back to the start, in 1963, when he got into Yale and went on to meet his wife-to-be, Lynne (Amy Adams), and as the narration […]

The film comes from writer/director Adam McKay (The Big Short), and stars an unrecognisable Christian Bale in the lead role. Dom RobinsonReviewer of movies, videogames and music since 1994.

Red Sparrow brings us Jennifer Lawrence as Dominika Egorova, an expert ballet. Have you suffered a trip or fall at work? Could you claim compensation? Call Claims Direct now, since that’s what befalls this Russian lady who doesn’t look at all Russian. Anyhoo, this stops her from being able to continue, but being out of […]

The story follows Catherine Weldon (Jessica Chastain), who moved from Brooklyn to the Standing Rock Reservation in Dakota Territory to help Sioux […]
The Killing of a Sacred Deer is one of those films where I just didn’t *get* the title and the trailer at first, but as soon as I saw it was made by Yorgos Lanthimos, the same director as the incredible and bizarre The Lobster, I was sold on this, and it is a must-see, […]
Hostiles tells the tale of legendary Army captain Captain Joseph J Blocker (Christian Bale) who, in 1892, reluctantly agreed to escort a Cheyenne chief and his family through dangerous territory. And now, there’s a full trailer, and like the teaser, I wasn’t wowed at all by it. When I heard the words, “I’ve killed everything […]

I wasn’t wowed at all by the trailer. When I heard the words, “I’ve killed everything that ever walked or crawled…”, well, that’s straight out […]
The Killing of a Sacred Deer is a title that didn’t grab me at first, but then I saw the cast featured Colin Farrell, and it comes from Yorgos Lanthimos, the director of the brilliant The Lobster. Steven Murphy (Farrell) is a charismatic surgeon, forced to make an unthinkable sacrifice after his life starts to […]
