It’s 1989, just before the Berlin Wall comes down, and as the people of East Germany finally have freedom within reach, British spy Lorraine Broughton finds herself increasingly trapped as her escape routes close. Atomic Blonde is not so much style over substance as just enough style, but too much substance. The beginning is fabulous, the ending had my head spinning more… Atomic Blonde Read More
Mother Of All Trailers Arrives And I’m More Confused Than Ever
Letting our offspring watch Peppa Pig on an iPad, giving birth to world tyrants, and breastfeeding in public. Just three of the crimes we mothers cop a load of shit for, so I’m really hoping that upcoming psychological horror film mother! doesn’t cast us in an even worse light. Anyway, mum-rant over (for now! Hahaha). We’ve already… Mother Of All Trailers Arrives And I’m More Confused Than Ever Read More
Big Sick 4 stars
Kumail is an Uber driver moonlighting as a standup comedian, or maybe it’s the other way around. His flatmate is also a comedian but a really terrible one, which probably works well for Kumail, a bit like having a less attractive friend to make you look even prettier. Having grown up in Pakistan, Kumail (Kumail Nanjiani)… Big Sick Read More
Raw 4 stars
“I am hungry though my stomach always feels empty” says new student Justine as a doctor, treating her red, blistering rash, tells her to fast for a day after a bout of food poisoning. There’s an old saying that the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach, and you could argue the same about… Raw Read More
The Levelling 4 stars
There’s a briefly joyous interlude in The Levelling when Clover and her father, farmer Aubrey, find a cow and her newborn calf. The calf is adorable, just starting to stagger up on its little legs, and it seems like a moment of hope, until it turns out to be a boy and its fate is… The Levelling Read More

Once More Onto The Beach Dear Friends… Yes Let’s Talk About Dunkirk
This is a fight for freedom – freedom to diss aspects of Dunkirk! And to rewrite famous Shakespearean quotes for my own nefarious purposes too. It’s okay, I’ve got my flak jacket, I’m lying on the ground with my hands over my ears, and I’m primed for two weeks of fallout. Plus I’m British so I’ve… Once More Onto The Beach Dear Friends… Yes Let’s Talk About Dunkirk Read More
Apparently It’s National Orgasm Day! Though That Could Be Fake News
I’ll have what she’s having.
Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie 4 stars
This is a film all about the strength of laughter, friendship, and knicker elastic – the ties that bind us and the binds that stop our underwear from falling down round our ankles. George and Harold go to a miserably joyless establishment called Jerome Horwitz Elementary School where children are so unhappy they climb into lockers at the… Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie Read More

Dunkirk 5 stars
If there’s one thing war films have taught me it’s that conflicts are long periods of quiet boredom interspersed with flashes of horrific fighting, injuries and death. Dunkirk isn’t boring but it is a film that feels remarkably quiet, which is odd as though there is little dialogue there is music everywhere, along with screeching bombs… Dunkirk Read More
The Take 3.5 stars
A young pickpocket and an unruly CIA agent team up on an anti-terrorist mission in France. “Are you in love?… Are you writing a novel?… THEN WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING IN PARIS?” CIA man Sean Briar (Idris Elba) subverts the cliches as he interrogates accidental terrorist Michael Mason (Richard Madden). Briar is described as “reckless,… The Take Read More
