Socrates Review – A Sensitive Portrait Of Intersectional Poverty (Rating: 9/10)
In a cinematic world dominated by the MCU, it’s easy to fall into the trap of thinking that a film requires a large budget to be competent. When the average budget of a Hollywood movie is easily in the tens of millions of dollars, and entire CGI worlds have become mundane to most viewers, films that cost less than the price of a house to … Continue reading Socrates Review – A Sensitive Portrait Of Intersectional Poverty (Rating: 9/10)

Yesterday Review – A Silly, Scattered, Sincere Rom-Com (Rating: 8/10)
Danny Boyle is a director with a bizarrely diverse filmography. Starting with the black humour and aggression of movies like Trainspotting and 28 Days Later, he eventually moved into more crowd-pleasing work like his Oscar-winning (though now often maligned) Slumdog Millionaire, and the biopic Steve Jobs. This isn’t to say he doesn’t have certain hallmarks; an optimistic humanism is present in even the bleakest of his films, and he is consistently … Continue reading Yesterday Review – A Silly, Scattered, Sincere Rom-Com (Rating: 8/10)
Spider-Man: Far From Home Review – A Better Teen Movie Than Superhero Flick (Rating: 7/10)
The weight of Avengers: Endgame is a heavy burden on the shoulders of Spider-Man: Far From Home, and I seriously don’t envy director Jon Watts for having to follow arguably the largest film event of a generation. It’s not as though Spider-Man as a character can’t generate enough hype by himself – particularly after the surprise critical and commercial success of Into The Spider-Verse – but within the … Continue reading Spider-Man: Far From Home Review – A Better Teen Movie Than Superhero Flick (Rating: 7/10)

Booksmart Review – Wilde’s Shining Debut Is A Breezy Teen Delight (Rating: 9/10)
When looking online at lists of the best teen movies of all time, you’ll likely notice that the 1980s and early 1990s tend to dominate. While John Hughes often leads with classics like The Breakfast Club and Ferris Bueller’s Day Off – as well as films that have aged far worse like Sixteen Candles – Amy Heckerling’s Clueless can be found topping many a list, as can 10 Things … Continue reading Booksmart Review – Wilde’s Shining Debut Is A Breezy Teen Delight (Rating: 9/10)
Always Be My Maybe Review – Hilarious, Down To Earth, And Everything Else That Makes A Rom-Com Shine (Rating: 8/10)
As far as Netflix comedy specials go, three figures dominate in my eyes: John Mulaney, with endearingly awkward takes on his own lameness; Hannah Gadsby, one of the most daring performers working today; and Ali Wong, the raunchy focus of today’s review. These three could hardly be more different as performers, but the successes brought on by their stand-up specials for the streaming site have … Continue reading Always Be My Maybe Review – Hilarious, Down To Earth, And Everything Else That Makes A Rom-Com Shine (Rating: 8/10)
