The first trailer for F9: Fast & Furious 9 was launched today in Miami, at a “global fan extravaganza concert” called The Road To F9. It’s completely batshit, with crazy action (I hope they’ve left some mega-stunts for the film – the trailer is nearly four minutes long and doesn’t let up). And there’s Helen Mirren… F9 trailer and images: “No matter how fast you are, no one outruns their past” Read More

New Fast & Furious character posters are mighty F9
That title is the increasingly annoying (for you) gift that keeps on giving (for me). After the title release, teaser and first look poster earlier this week, and a day ahead of the full trailer tomorrow [UPDATE: watch the trailer here], we now have a collection of seven F9 character posters – check them out… New Fast & Furious character posters are mighty F9 Read More
“Never accept death when suffering is owed”: the Fast X trailer is the beginning of the end of the road
It’s here and I love it even though I’ve only seen a handful of the films, in the wrong order, and had no idea what was going on and who was who until I read the synopsis. Family, explosive stunts and some fabulously clichéd dialogue (I was surprised there wasn’t a “we’re not so different,… “Never accept death when suffering is owed”: the Fast X trailer is the beginning of the end of the road Read More
Fast X teaser poster: the beginning of the end of the road…
I’ve seen (and enjoyed) a handful of the series – don’t ask me which ones, though there was definitely a baby in one of them – and I can’t quite believe they’re up to number ten. The trailer is out on 10 February and the movie hits UK and US cinemas on 19 May. Check… Fast X teaser poster: the beginning of the end of the road… Read More
The world is healing, by blowing everything up: the new F9 trailer is here
Flying cars! Flipping mega-trucks! Sibling rivalry! The haircut of nightmares! I think this is the second trailer for Fast & Furious 9: The Fast Saga, though who even knows any more? It was inevitable we’d start seeing COVID allegories and metaphors in all the movies we see, regardless of when they were made, but I… The world is healing, by blowing everything up: the new F9 trailer is here Read More
Wonder Woman 1984 4 stars
Fast forward to the 1980s as Wonder Woman’s next big screen adventure finds her facing two all-new foes: Max Lord and The Cheetah. If you remember the ’80s, not only were you really there but you probably can’t look at a lightning striped, cap-sleeved t-shirt on a bloke without having terrifying flashbacks. That said, one… Wonder Woman 1984 Read More

I pressed F9 and this poster appeared
There’s a first poster for the upcoming F9, the ninth film in the Fast & Furious franchise. (And the film had better be brilliant or awful, as if it’s just average you can expect a million reviews starting “well, it was F9”.) There’s also a teaser, The Road To F9. The first full trailer arrives this… I pressed F9 and this poster appeared Read More
1917 4.5 stars
The camera sticks closely to Lance Corporals Blake and Schofield, two young soldiers sent on a mission to stop British forces going over the top into a German trap. They jog through sandbagged trenches and warily crouch their way across No Man’s Land, an alien landscape where bodies hanging on barbed wire are used by… 1917 Read More

A young couple looking for the perfect home find themselves trapped in a mysterious labyrinth-like neighborhood of identical houses. *** Read my interview with Vivarium director Lorcan Finnegan *** Everyone has their own line in the sand which they will not cross when it comes to settling down.

Little Monsters (London Film Festival 2019) 3 stars
Little Monsters is a great advert for teacher excellence, if not much of a recruiting tool – as multi-talented kindergarten teacher Miss Caroline has to save her class of small charges as they face down an attempted zombie apocalypse. I say attempted; it does feel a little half-hearted, as the world’s slowest undead hordes stagger round… Little Monsters (London Film Festival 2019) Read More
