Apostasy is defined as “abandonment or renunciation of a religion by a person” and is what happened to one of the characters within. I’m not at all religious, but I’d heard a lot of good things about this film. Ivanna (Benidorm‘s Siobhan Finneran) is heavily religious, making younger daughter Alex (Molly Wright) feel guilt-tripped into […]

Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom is another sequel with a meaningless subtitle. Beforehand, I was anticipating yawning and a lot of watch-checking, and thinking that the only plus is that it’ll take people away from Solo: A Star Wars Story, as Disney really need to be taught a lesson, but then people have already given that […]

Borg Vs McEnroe, as the title suggests, catalogues the pair fighting it out for the 1980 Wimbledon Final, between No.1 seed Bjorn Borg (Sverrir Gudnason) – looking for his fifth consecutive title, and No.2 seed and ‘superbrat’ John McEnroe (Shia LaBeouf). The latter was also an eternal hot-head in his day… so LaBeouf was a […]

Gunpowder is centred around the 1605 Gunpowder plot, as Guy Fawkes wants to blow up the Houses of Parliament. However, this three-parter begins in 1603, at which point Elizabeth I has died, and James I has taken over, although it doesn’t take long before everyone wants HIM dead, too… as if any further replacements would […]

This is a story about two […]
Capital, with Toby Jones in the lead as financial whiz Roger, made me think the title referred to money. It may, since we see property prices increasing as the months go by, but if that’s the case then it’s rather a loose point to hang the title on. Other than that, I would assume it […]
