Mean Girls Review

It’s not just déjà vu with fabulous musical flair – Mean Girls is back, but maybe not with as much of a vengeance as its predecessor. Directors Samantha Jayne and Arturo Perez Jr have brought the broadway show based on the cult classic back to the silver screen once again. While it does retain much of the campy and fun hallmarks of the original, perhaps with the latest iteration we have foun...

Anyone But You Review

If you, when sitting down to view Anyone But You,  were also dreading another shaky Shakespere inspired rom-com, you might find yourself in for an unexpected surprise. Not exactly known for his romantic comedies, Will Gluck (director of Peter Rabbit) delivers a crowd-pleasing rom-com that harks back to the hey-day of the genre.  Starring the both very hot right now Sydney Sweeney (best known for E...

Wonka Review

While only read about in the books and seen in the movies, the wonderfully weird Willy Wonka’s chocolate factory rivalled Disneyland as the most magical place for kids, full of imagination, and most importantly, confectionary. Everlasting gobstoppers, lickable wallpaper, three course dinner gum, a chocolate river and more; it’s easy to understand why the franchise in both mediums became wildly pop...

Bottoms Review

Have you ever been sitting in a cinema when you get the feeling that you’re watching a cult film in the making? Welcome to Bottoms, from director Emma Seligman and co-writer Rachel Sennott. Look, it’s not going to be for everyone, the vibe is kind of … absurdist gay Mean Girls meets slasher fic? And is firmly rooted in Gen Z comedy. However, don’t be quick to judge this bloody high school romp ...

Cat Person Review

In cinemas from today (23rd), Cat Person is part cautionary tale and part mirror for participants in the modern dating scene. A serviceable psychological thriller and drama that sticks with you after viewing. It’s not shocking or surprising, the events playing out on screen are mostly predictable as they are humorous. It is the pondering and attempting to understand individual character motivation...

Saltburn Review

Universal Pictures and Warner Bros present Saltburn; the latest feature from Writer/Director and Academy Award winner Emerald Fennell (Promising Young Woman). After receiving critical acclaim from film festivals all around the globe, Saltburn is hoping to shock audiences with its gothic thrills and twisted chills. Set against the backdrop of the mid-2000s, Saltburn tells the tale of Oliver (Barry ...

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem Review

Paramount Pictures and Nickelodeon Films presents their most radical movie this year –  Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem. Spanning multiple generations of turtles-fans, this latest franchise revival of the heroes in a half-shell is hoping to entertain fans both new and old.     Four brothers – Michelangelo, Donatello, Leonardo and Raphael all dream of stepping out of the saf...

Barbie Review

After months of “Barbenheimer” hype – the aptly named event referencing the dual-release of Barbie and Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer on the same day – Barbie finally releases this week in all her pastel glory. Warner Bros. Pictures and Director/Writer Greta Gerwig (Lady Bird) are hoping that this film based on the 1950’s fashion doll and cultural icon will delight fans of all generat...

Frank and Frank Review

Author, musician and filmmaker, Adam Morris has followed up his debut feature EDWARD AND ISABELLA (2022). The film won Best Film at the WA Screen Culture Awards, Best Feature Film at the Prague International Film Festival and Best Director at the Tokyo Film Awards. He has completed his second feature FRANK AND FRANK (or The Valley and The Walrus: Ruminations on the Mystery from Soup to Nuts). The ...

No Hard Feelings Review

No Hard Feelings is Sony Pictures latest “raunchy” comedy from the mind of director/writer Gene Stupnitsky (Good Boys & Bad Teacher). With a trailer promising a plethora of foul language, sexual references and full-frontal nudity, here’s hoping Stupnitsky can go 3 for 3 and deliver another laugh-out-loud comedy. Facing the imminent loss of her beloved childhood home in Montauk, Long Island, 32...

Bank of Dave Review

BANK OF DAVE is probably best described as a double rom com: two love stories, unfolding at the same time. The first love story is pretty familiar: sad-lawyer-boy Hugh (Joe Fry) meets idealistic-doctor-girl Dr Alexandra (Phoebe Dynevor). Sparks fly: first the angry sort, then the love sort. It’s a sweet little rom com. Decidedly heart-warming, whilst managing to dodge some of the more cliché plot ...

Renfield Review

Universal Pictures and director Chris McKay, (The LEGO Batman Movie), invite you to suck on Renfield. A modern kind of sequel to 1931’s Dracula, yes, that one with Bela Lugosi. In short, it’s pretty fun, it doesn’t suck! Renfield stars Nicholas Hoult as the titular ghoul and Nicholas Cage as the infamous count, both of whom need no introduction. The film acts as a situation comedy first, action ho...
