Read MoreSpider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (Part One) gets a teaser trailer
Miles Morales returns for the next chapter of the Oscar-winning Spider-Verse saga, an epic adventure that will transport Brooklyn’s full-time, friendly neighborhood Spider-Man across the Multiverse to join forces with Gwen Stacy and a new team of Spider-People to face off with a villain more powerful than anything they have ever encountered. Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse was an incredible movie...

Read MoreReview: The Hand of God – “A charming story of adulthood in the face of tragedy”
The Hand of God may sound like it will be exclusively a football film, but Maradona is merely part of the scenery. Directed by Paolo Sorrentino it is a pseudo biography of the filmmaker’s entry into adulthood, using the character Fabietto (Filippo Scotti) as a stand-in for himself. While Fabietto is the main character the film is dominated and enriched by a bright cast set in Naples, as the city...

Read MoreDVD Review: Best Sellers – “Light-hearted and enjoyable”
Films depicting cross-generational friendships are not hard to find. The Intern with Anne Hathaway and Robert DeNiro comes to mind. There’s also Finding Forrester, The Karate Kid, and even Back to the Future. In TV this year we had Selena Gomez joining the likes of Steve Martin and Martin Short in the incredibly enjoyable Only Murders in the Building (highly recommend if you haven’t...

Read MoreReview: Spencer – “The monarchy film we never knew we needed.”
A little while back news seeped out on the film wires that a new movie about Diana, Princess of Wales, was on the cards, with the title role played by American Kristen Stewart (Twilight, Personal Shopper). Like me, you may have rolled your eyes – here we go, another cash stab at ‘royal realism’, falling somewhere in-between the carriage wheels of Downton Abbey and The Crown, but shifting millions...

Written and directed by Carlo Mirabella-Davis (Knife Point), Swallow stars Haley Bennett (The Girl on the Train), Austin Stowell (Whiplash), Denis O’Hare (Dallas Buyers Club) and Laith Nakli (12 Strong). Not getting a UK theatrical release thanks to the pandemic, Swallow was just released on Blu-ray on the 22nd of November by Second Sight Films. Hunter (Bennett) appears to have everything. A gorgeous new...

Read MoreReview – Ghostbusters: Afterlife – “A fun filled, spooky sequel”
Ghostbusters: Afterlife is the third film in the series, following the 1984 original and the 1989 sequel. As we all know, the 2016 film was not a sequel and ignored the events of the original two films to reboot the franchise, but it did not find the audience so that was shelved. I still feel it was actually more a reboot of the Ghostbusters cartoon. Then along came Jason Reitman, son of Ivan Reitman (who...

Read MoreReview: King Richard is “crowd-pleasing, uplifting and not your standard biopic”
“Who is the power behind the throne?” is a question that assumes as much as it asks. Usually applied to dynasties, cementing the condescending idea that the people want a crowd-facing figurehead, the real ruling carried out by shadowy figures behind the curtain. Think The Wizard of Oz to Wolf Hall and more recently, Vice. So calling a biopic – about the rise of the Williams sisters to...
