CODA (2021) Review

April 1, 2022March 31, 2022 Ben

There is a strange balancing act that CODA attempts for the first two-thirds at least. On one hand you have a movie which seemingly tells a straight and realistic story of a CODA (child of deaf family), as Emilia Jones’ … Continue reading CODA (2021) Review

Promising Young Woman (2020) Review

November 6, 2021November 3, 2021 Ben

Some roles can define careers and most will ultimately lead to the big Oscar win, or at least a nomination. For Carey Mulligan, it is no different and her role as Cassandra in Promising Young Woman could very well be … Continue reading Promising Young Woman (2020) Review

Rocky Month: Rocky II (1979) Review

April 23, 2019April 23, 2019 Ben

Rocky was a movie that didn’t need a sequel. It ended as the perfect underdog story and showcased one of Sylvester Stallone’s best performances. The film was a huge success, winning Best Picture at the Oscars, so a sequel seemed to … Continue reading Rocky Month: Rocky II (1979) Review

Oscars 2019: The Ballad of Buster Scruggs (2018) Review

March 13, 2019March 12, 2019 Ben

The Ballad of Buster Scruggs is a difficult one to review. It is a movie comprised of segments; individual stories with a western theme. They vary from comedy, to drama, to the macabre and back again. Each one has it’s own … Continue reading Oscars 2019: The Ballad of Buster Scruggs (2018) Review

Oscars 2019: If Beale Street Could Talk (2018) Review

March 4, 2019 Ben

There is something to be said for letting a story breathe and develop in it’s own time. There is no hurried pace to If Beale Street Could Talk. It doesn’t feel the need to rush through to get to the more … Continue reading Oscars 2019: If Beale Street Could Talk (2018) Review

Oscars 2019: First Reformed (2018) Review

March 3, 2019March 3, 2019 Ben

First Reformed is a master-class in character study. It takes it’s time and doesn’t try to force the story too far. It moves at a fairly slow pace but in doing so gives the central figure, played by Ethan Hawke, time … Continue reading Oscars 2019: First Reformed (2018) Review

Oscars 2019: At Eternity’s Gate (2018) Review

March 1, 2019March 1, 2019 Ben

When looking at synopsis for At Eternity’s Gate you will find many summarise the movie as: “A film about the years Vincent Van Gogh spent painting in Southern France.” This hardly fills anyone with excitement or intrigue and unfortunately, the movie … Continue reading Oscars 2019: At Eternity’s Gate (2018) Review
