Avengers: Endgame: I’ll give no spoilers unless I use a spoiler header below (so you can’t come across them without actively clicking on them), but it has been well sign-posted that it won’t be a happy finish for everyone. Still, anything must be a step-up from the end of Avengers: Infinity War when half of […]

Churchill… Winston Churchill… like Solo… Han Solo… and Bond… James Bond… Okay, let’s be serious for a moment. Churchill probably sounded like a great idea on paper. Wartime movies are sprinkling their way through the cinema schedules of late, so inbetween Christopher Nolan’s Dunkirk and Gary Oldman’s Oscar/BAFTA-contender The Darkest Hour, someone thought: Brian Cox […]

The late Prime Minister stands in […]
Captain America: Civil War – Seriously? What an overlong mess this was. I don’t think I’ve looked at my watch so many times during a film. Note: In this review, there may be what some might consider spoilers. I can’t really discuss my likes/dislikes without going into detail. Even though Bucky Barnes (Sebastian Stan) started […]

Spotlight is the name of the magazine within The Boston Globe, run by a four-person team who keeps their work confidential and can spend up to a year to investigate a subject thoroughly, sometimes also taking around 2 months to find their new one , which makes them seem somewhat unproductive. However, but with the […]

Just how much of the truth it tells, is left to be seen… When the newspaper’s tenacious “Spotlight” team of reporters […]
Ant-Man is another movie in the seemingly never-ending Marvel canon. I’ve said before that I don’t follow the comic books so I only know of what is presented before me in movie form, and I have to say that, from the moment I first heard about this entry in the series, I wasn’t exactly wowed. […]

God’s Pocket is a grim town and there’s, apparently, things you only understand about it if you were brought up there, according to local hack Richard Shellburn (Richard Jenkins). The fact that meat van driver Mickey Scarpato (Philip Seymour Hoffman) did not originate from there seems to be a contributory factor to him seemingly not […]
