Aquaman

Too much exposition from characters with severe mommy and daddy issues haphazardly twisted into a mildly entertaining story with great CGI.

Mary Queen of Scots

It’s an different take from director Josie Rourke, who makes her feature film debut, guided by the charismatic Ronan and Robbie, great cinematography and good directing it’s a very entertaining film from start to finish and gives a bit of food for thought.

The Mule

I find no comfort in watching an aging superstar slowly burn out into the emptiness of black hole it becomes. It’s once gleaming and powerful self with highlights such as Unforgiven, Flags of our Father and American Sniper, reduced to the amateurism of 15:17 to Paris and now his latest directorial film, The Mule.

Bad Times at the El Royale

Bland, predictable and boring. The stay is good for one night but I’d advise an early checkout from this flick.

First Man

First Man is intense, primitive and at times a fatalistic experience watching it’s heroic men and woman that strove to … More

Venom

In the end I wouldn’t call it a polished up turd. More like a polished grapefruit. Once the shinny coat wears off you realize it’s just a grapefruit. Nothing special, but some may like and some will not.

The Predator

The Predator is a total reinvention of the franchise and one for the better but it does take time to adjust. … More

Operation Finale

And from that unimaginable time comes a new mission, to capture and bring to justice the Nazi hierarchy responsible for those deaths, most notably the infamous Adolf Eichmann (Ben Kingsley), who is credited with the logistics, transportation and execution orders for millions of Jews, murdered in his various concentration camps.

Blindspotting

It’s fresh, creative, entertaining and poignant. Blindspotting isn’t just a decent independent film but the best picture of the year thus far.
