Analysing the cult status of John Carpenter’s ‘Big Trouble in Little China’ (1986)

And now for something completely different… an essay I wrote a couple years back during my film degree at Uni.

Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom (2018) Review

Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom is a the strangest movie in the Jurassic Park franchise but after the original it’s certainly the best. It’t won’t be for everyone however…

Solo: A Star Wars Story (2018) Review

Possibly the first Star Wars film that most fans don’t actually want, ‘Solo’ is far better than you might have expected.

Revenge (2018) Review

In a lot of ways, Coralie Fargeat’s feature film debut, Revenge, delivers on exactly what that title promises. But look deeper through the blood and guts and this B-movie delivers quite a few surprises…

The Greatest Showman (2017) Review

The Greatest Showman is a loud pop musical about the showman P.T. Barnum that more or less does away with the real history.

But it’s also incredibly entertaining. Read my review as I try to figure out why that is…

Deadpool 2 (2018) Review

Following very closely on the heels of Infinity War, Deadpool 2 is unlikely to cause superhero fatigue with it’s witty dialogue, wall-to-wall references, and slick action.

Avengers: Infinity War (2018) Review

19 films and billions of dollars later, the MCU has led us here. A decade of plot threads and stories has built up to Infinity War, so it’s not surprising that it just might be the biggest film of all time.

Mom and Dad (2017) Review

‘Mom and Dad’ is peak Cage. It’s the best he’s been in a long time.

With a really original idea, and a unique style, and fantastic performances from Selma Blair and Nic Cage – ‘Mom and Dad’ is a treat.

Bullet Head (2017) Review

Paul Solet’s Bullet Head is not the greatest film of all time, it’s not trying to be. But it is one of the most surprising in recent memory.

Starring some real talent – and an excellent dog – Bullet Head is worth your time. Just ignore the title.

You Were Never Really Here (2018) Review

Director Lynne Ramsey’s long overdue follow-up to ‘We Need To Talk About Kevin’ is a fantastic study of possibly the world’s most depressed hitman.

It’s weird, it’s pretty uncomfortable at times, and it’s very dark. But it’s also fantastically enjoyable.
