The Worst Person in the World – Film Review
I really enjoyed this peculiar, freewheeling Norwegian dark comedy-drama about a young woman battling indecisiveness as she approaches 30s, despite some problems with the writing that made it feel a tad shallow.
The Farewell – Film Review
Beautifully observed and bittersweet drama about the conflict between family ties and cultural values, with an impressive dramatic turn from Awkwafina.
The Station Agent – Film Review
A sweet and quirky comedy-drama about an unlikely trio of lonely souls coming together in a small town… and trains.
Younger – TV Review
I initially found this Stan series too annoyingly hyper and perky for its own good, but in the end it was a (near) perfect light and frothy lockdown watch.
Two Hands – Film Review
Back in 1999, I actually did mean to watch this quirky and energetic Australian thriller-slash-black comedy with Heath Ledger and Rose Byrne, and now I finally have.
Legally Blonde – Film Review
I was in a mood for something light and fluffy on a Friday night, so I watched another cult classic I missed out on.
In Bruges – Film Review
I’ve been watching a lot of crime drama/comedy recently for some reason. In addition to Hot Fuzz and Leon: The Professional, plus re-visiting Godfather I & II and all five seasons of Breaking Bad, I’ve now watched Martin McDonagh’s 2008 black comedy caper. And yes it made me want to go to Bruges.
Mean Girls – Film Review
Somehow I spent the last fifteen years without ever once seeing this high school comedy classic, while still knowing its catchphrases (Stop trying to make Fetch happen). Watching it for the first time now, it still feels fresh and as deceptively effortless as a perfect pop song.
