And does it matter? So many existential questions! You can read about some of them in my 4/5 review of Free Guy here, or see below for what happens in the movie. “I’m just a love letter to you and somewhere out there is the author.” So says Guy — who is now actually sentient… Are we all dust in the wind, or merely a collection of zeros and 1s? The Free Guy ending Read More
Free Guy 4 stars
A man in a video game finds his existence threatened just as he find out he is not actually real. One of the current “big” ideas about reality and existence is that we are actually living in a simulation. It’s my favourite, a modern twist on the idea of God, or the disinterested watchmaker who… Free Guy Read More
Pig: a recap
Very spoilery. My review is here — I went the whole hog and gave it five-stars. It is a crackling movie though. I’m sorry but this does not end well for the pig. Let us bacon — I mean begin. The film is split into three acts, or meals. Part 1: rustic mushroom tart A… Pig: a recap Read More
Pig 5 stars
A man’s truffle pig is stolen and he travels into the city to find it. Pig‘s titular pig is an adorable old ham. When she’s happy she snorts like an old man laughing at his own jokes, while the river tumbles and twigs crackle around her; when she’s taken you can hear her shrieking in… Pig Read More
My Little Pony: A New Generation trailer — yay or neigh?
Check out the trailer now, you’d be a foal not to (don’t worry, glitter cannot hurt you through the screen). It’s rather sweet, and reminded me of Trolls, with the colour and glitter and a quest to make the world a better place. The film is out on Netflix on 24 September 2021. I am… My Little Pony: A New Generation trailer — yay or neigh? Read More

*** My 5/5 review is now live *** The story of the largest concert of the ‘90s, through the eyes of the fans who were there, with additional interviews with the band and concert organisers. If you see me in the crowd, please let me know! **************************** Back in the mid-90s, after getting paid and… This is history! The Oasis Knebworth 1996 trailer is here Read More
To Infinitum and beyond! Infinitum Subject Unknown explained
This covers what was happening to Jane in the film (and why!), and the ending. Very spoilery, in all dimensions. (My 4/5 review is here) “In a world of quantum science, anything that can happen will happen. Every choice you make creates infinite possibilities, infinite worlds, where each outcome exists.” So says Professor Aaron Östergaard… To Infinitum and beyond! Infinitum Subject Unknown explained Read More
I’ll be frank, spoilers ahoy: that Jungle Cruise ending
There’s a lot going on in Jungle Cruise. Find out what happens, how it ends, and how old Frank really is… (my 3/5 review is here). Frank, despite looking like a hot 50 year old, is actually a hot 400 year old, a cartographer (or mapmaker) called Francisco. As a Spanish conquistador in the 16th… I’ll be frank, spoilers ahoy: that Jungle Cruise ending Read More
Jungle Cruise 3 stars
An Edwardian scientist and her brother hire a local river captain to transport them along the Amazon in search of a mystical tree which could revolutionise medicine. Curses! Jungle Cruise sails very familiar territory. A lot of Indiana Jones, a hefty helping of Pirates Of The Caribbean, a dollop of Das Boot and a soupçon… Jungle Cruise Read More
Promising Young Woman: the end
Cassie plots the denouement to her own story, and though he knows the risk she’s taking, for her it’s worth it. Without Nina, Cassie sees herself as half a person (she wears a chain with half a pendant on it, while Nina had the other half). Cassie knows she might well die, and that her… Promising Young Woman: the end Read More
Promising Young Woman 4 stars
Everyone said Cassie was a promising young woman… until a mysterious event abruptly derailed her future. But nothing in Cassie’s life is what it appears to be: she’s wickedly smart, tantalizingly cunning, and she’s living a secret double life by night. Writer-director Emerald Fennell seems to be both pushing and then questioning the avenging angel metaphor… Promising Young Woman Read More
Nowhere Special – the ending
Spoilers, and hankies, a go-go. (My four-star review is here.) When I said in my review that there’s a “happy” ending, I meant as happy as it can be, which means the audience too achieving some acceptance of the inevitability of John’s death. But it is happy, because John can now die safe in the… Nowhere Special – the ending Read More
