One night. Four legends. History about to be made. A directing debut effort from Regina King (If Beale Street Could Talk, Ray) that showcases energetic character building in its otherwise simple setting. One Night in Miami tells the ‘relatively’ true story of an historic night in Miami on the 25th of February, 1964. Whilst that […]

Outside the Wire – Review
Netflix’s flurry into the action world has been far from stellar at this point. Mediocrity is what I’ve come to expect as a base level, with anything going above thrilling and worthwhile a bonus. Sadly again, Outside the Wire fails to be as compelling as the story it wishes to tell. In the not so […]
WandaVision – First Impressions (Spoiler Free)
It’s been teased for a long time and ever since we first heard about it we’ve be dying to know… “what the hell is it all about?!”. Well, with its release finally hitting Disney+, it looks like we’re about to get our answers. We’re going back in time to the 1950’s. Wanda and Vision appear […]
Top 5: Most Anticipated of 2021
2020 was, amongst plenty of other things, a cinematic graveyard. Of course we had streaming services to save the day and some what soften the blow of endless cancellations and releasing schedule changes, but what should’ve been a fantastic year for film was decent at best (depending on how you look at it). What was […]
Pieces of a Woman – Review
They say that child birth can be a beautiful thing. But what happens, if it doesn’t go according to plan? Hungarian director Kornél Mundruczó, demonstrates exactly that, in this painfully poignant piece that follows a couple who are met with such fate. Vanessa Kirby’s (Mission Impossible: Fallout) Martha and Shia LaBeouf’s (Honey Boy, The Peanut […]
Spree – Review
“It’s a numbers game, and right now I’m a zero” – Kurt Kunkle It’s the modern age movie for the modern age audience. 2020’s Spree makes its appearance on Netflix and the Generation Z(ers) amongst us have plenty to get excited about. Joe Keery (Stranger Things) stars as Kurt Kunkle (AKA @Kurtsworld96), a wannabe influencer […]
Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom – Review
We’re almost at curtain call on this troubled year. A year I think we’re all ready to put in the past, and focus on our futures. However, we’ll always look back on this year for the losses we’ve all had in some form or another. And one loss that the world mourned, was that of […]
The Midnight Sky – Review
A global catastrophe known as ‘the event’, has plunged Earth into an extinction level threat. The climate has changed, and with it the situations in which our very existence relies upon. In this fictional story, based on the book ‘Good Morning, Midnight’ by author Lily Brooks-Dalton, actor/director George Clooney demonstrates a future, in which we […]
Soul – Review
Much like Onwards, that was released at the beginning of this year, Pixar’s Soul may not receive the reception it most certainly deserves. As the filming industry is still very much in a dark place at the moment, Soul joins the list of mainstream releases that is given the ‘straight to streaming’ gig instead. Pixar’s […]
Mulan – Review
Now that Disney+ has removed the undeserved, hefty price tag off of their latest live action remake, I felt it deserved its chance to be seen. The announcement to pull its release from theatres all over the world, was given quite the sour response. Not only from those wanting to return to the theatres after […]
