Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021) Review

December 20, 2021December 19, 2021 Ben

I’ve been a comic book fan for as long as I can remember and Spider-Man No Way Home is as close to reading those comic books as you can get. Not because of the great realisation of Spider-Man on-screen but … Continue reading Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021) Review

Spider-Man (2002) Review

December 6, 2021December 5, 2021 Ben

Before all of Marvel’s movies were linked and part of some huge master-plan, before every superhero movie felt like an “event” and before there were at least 3 comic book movies a year, Sam Raimi delivered the perfect Spider-Man. Superhero … Continue reading Spider-Man (2002) Review

The Lighthouse (2019) Review

July 29, 2021July 27, 2021 Ben

Its best to watch The Lighthouse with no prior information. Not that knowing anything about The Lighthouse before you watched would necessarily help either as for aspects of the film, you will feel as lost and confused as Robert Patterson’s … Continue reading The Lighthouse (2019) Review

When 2019 was the Future: Daybreakers (2009) Review

June 11, 2019June 11, 2019 Ben

There is a great idea at the core of Daybreakers. The film uses its science-fiction and recent future setting well to create a world which seems tangible but is based around a unique idea: Most of the population are now vampires. … Continue reading When 2019 was the Future: Daybreakers (2009) Review

Oscars 2018: The Florida Project (2017) Review

March 2, 2018March 1, 2018 Ben

Some of the best movies don’t tell a story which captures the biggest or most significant moments in a person’s life. Some movies focus on the more inconsequential parts of a person’s life; focusing on an hour, day or week that … Continue reading Oscars 2018: The Florida Project (2017) Review

The Grand Budapest Hotel (2014) Review

September 5, 2015September 5, 2015 Ben

I have mentioned before that I’m not a fan of Wes Anderson as a director. I just don’t get the appeal of his style. The long cuts, the holding scenes on one location and the over-detailing of aspects like symmetry do … Continue reading The Grand Budapest Hotel (2014) Review

Mississippi Burning (1988) Review

June 3, 2015 Ben

1964: When America was at war with itself. This tagline sums up this film perfectly. The 1960s is a time of the Civil Rights movement and one of the most violent, infamous and controversial in American history. So controversial that countless … Continue reading Mississippi Burning (1988) Review

Fantastic Mr Fox (2009) Review

November 4, 2014 Ben

Wes Anderson has such a distinct style that it can be quite jarring and polarizing. I’m not necessarily a huge fan but I do appreciate The Royal Tenenbaums and Moonrise Kingdom, even if some of the storytelling elements and decisions that … Continue reading Fantastic Mr Fox (2009) Review

The Fault in Our Stars (2014) Review

July 9, 2014 Ben

It’s a bold move to begin your movie telling the audience that you won’t be relaying the “Hollywood” version but will be telling a “true story.” Most of the time this is relayed as an overly depressing, gritty drama that takes … Continue reading The Fault in Our Stars (2014) Review
