Pink Floyd: The Wall – Film Review
With Lockdown No. 4 restrictions easing, I went to the Astor Theatre to revisit the movie that scarred my childhood.
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.
Babette’s Feast – Film Review
This Oscar-winning Danish drama starts off slow and restrained, but ends up as a moving celebration of food and art, with possibly the greatest seven-course meal ever put onscreen.
Oblivion – Film Review
Highly derivative but decent sci-fi with the always-watchable Tom Cruise, Oblivion delivers on visuals if not on originality or characters.
The Umbrellas of Cherbourg – Film Review
Delightful and enchanting French musical with breathtakingly beautiful Catherine Deneuve in her first major film.
Event Horizon – Film Review
This sci-fi horror film is one of those weird movies best described as “fascinating failure”. It undercooks or burns most of its ingredients and overall doesn’t really work, but is somehow worth watching regardless.
Nomadland – Film Review
A gentle, compassionate and intimate portrait of life on the road and the society’s margins, led by another masterful performance from Frances McDormand.
Cats – Film Review
I don’t mean the 2019 uncanny valley abomination everyone loves to dump on, though it indirectly inspired me to check out the 1998 filmed stage version of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s mega-musical.
Mandy – Film Review
