‘Blade Runner 2049’ (2017) Review
Blade Runner 2049 (2017) Review: Nobody Does It Better It’s been 35 years after ‘Blade Runner’ was gifted to the world. The 1982 Sci-fi noir thriller with philosophical undertones changed the face of cinema and is one of the more intelligent blockbusters there is. Since its release, many have tried
‘Battle Of The Sexes’ (2017) Review
Battle Of The Sexes (2017) Review: 1973 or 2017? The beauty of cinema is that it can transport you to a time and a place you didn’t think you could experience yourself. A bygone era that is so different from the times you live in, it feels as though it
‘American Assassin’ (2017) Review
American Assassin (2017) Review: As Dull As It Gets ‘American Assassin’ is a mess. Not a great way to start a review. You can probably tell where this is going. It’s the story of ‘Mitch Rapp’, played by ‘The Maze Runner’ himself, Dylan O’Brien. A tragic, superhero-esque origin story sees
‘It’ (2017) Review
It (2017) Review: Float On After what seemed like the dryest movie period in years, finally, there is something exciting happening at the cinemas. It may be a remake of a miniseries adapted from a novel, but still, it’s something. Stephen King’s ‘It’ tells the story of Derry, a town

‘The Dark Tower’ (2017) Review
The Dark Tower (2017) Review: A Cinematic Sedative For those that declare cinema dead and Hollywood to be out of ideas, this is another notch in the win column for you. ‘The Dark Tower’ is yet another adaptation of a classic story by Stephen King. This time, instead of killer
‘Girls Trip’ (2017) Review

‘Atomic Blonde’ (2017) Review
Atomic Blonde (2017) Review: Beautifully Brutal From one-half of the directing duo that brought ‘John Wick’ to life comes yet another film about a character with a very particular set of skills.

‘Dunkirk’ (2017) Review
Dunkirk (2017) Review: The Greatest Story Never Told ‘Dunkirk’ is a movie about the 400,000 British and French soldiers trapped on the beaches of Dunkirk, beset on all sides by German opposition. Any attempt to escape is not treated kindly. Even standing still can be a precarious option, as any
