Ocean’s 8 Review: A Stylish, Entertaining Genre Flick (Rating: 7/10)
I went into Ocean’s 8 expecting a fun ride that would keep me occupied for a couple of hours, and that is what I received. What more can I honestly say? This is not a particularly deep film, nor one with much of a point to make, but if men can have these dumb escapist power fantasies, then God damn I’m happy we women apparently can … Continue reading Ocean’s 8 Review: A Stylish, Entertaining Genre Flick (Rating: 7/10)

On Chesil Beach Review – A Heartbreaking Look At Sexual Repression (Rating: 9/10)
As I was watching the trailers before The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society a while ago, I noticed a trailer for the film On Chesil Beach, which I initially (unfairly) dismissed as a dull, unimaginative period romance.

Mary and the Witch's Flower Review – Definitely A Worthy Successor (Rating: 9/10)
As a big enough fan of Studio Ghibli’s work to have a rather large Princess Mononoke tattoo on my arm, I was excited when I heard of Studio Ponoc, an animation studio made up of ex-Ghibli employees.
