January 4, 2024June 7, 2024yggdrasille
I’ve watched a few Christmas movies over the festive season, including this corny but charming 2006 romantic comedy about two women swapping homes and lives.

Leave the World Behind – Film Review

December 23, 2023June 7, 2024yggdrasille
I like my apocalyptic drama and I liked many things about this adaptation of Rumaan Alam’s 2020 novel, even if my final thought was, I bet the book was better.

The Killer – Film Review

November 21, 2023June 7, 2024yggdrasille
I enjoyed David Fincher’s thriller about a deadly perfectionist for what it is, a stylish, sleek, superbly directed and acted procedural that doesn’t have a lot going on beneath the surface… and that’s ok.

In the Mood for Love – Film Review

October 5, 2023June 7, 2024yggdrasille
After a long break, I was back at the Astor Theatre for this sumptuous, melancholy romantic drama about unconsummated love in the 1960s Hong Kong.

Private Life – Film Review

October 3, 2023June 7, 2024yggdrasille
Infertility is a topic that rarely if ever makes it into the movies, but this bittersweet comedy-drama about a middle-aged couple trying to conceive goes all in on the difficult and sensitive subject, with intelligence and humour.

Knock at the Cabin – Film Review

September 21, 2023June 7, 2024yggdrasille
This apocalyptic thriller is a disappointingly mediocre M. Night Shyamalan offering, a very silly movie that takes itself way too seriously and is neither great nor memorably awful.

Aftersun – Film Review

September 12, 2023June 7, 2024yggdrasille
A deceptively simple, gentle and ultimately heart-wrenching story about father and daughter, brimming with hidden darkness and questions that memories cannot answer.

Barbie – Film Review

August 22, 2023June 7, 2024yggdrasille
I finally watched Barbie and found it a bit of a hot pink mess… but an entertaining, fun and refreshingly weird mess for sure.
