Oscars round-up: Parasite wins big, but the cheesemakers are no longer blessed
History was made on Sunday night, and in a good way. For the first time a non-English language film – Parasite – won Best Picture, which was just one of its four-Oscar haul. Additionally, Jojo Rabbit writer-director Taika Waititi became the first indigenous person of Maori descent to win an Oscar when he picked up… Oscars round-up: Parasite wins big, but the cheesemakers are no longer blessed Read More
We prayed for Tom Hardy’s Shackleton movie and it seems to have worked…
“Scott for scientific method, Amundsen for speed and efficiency but when disaster strikes and all hope is gone, get down on your knees and pray for Shackleton” (Shackleton’s contemporary Sir Raymond Priestley in a speech to the British Science Association in 1956.) Variety has exclusively reported that Ernest Shackleton biopic Shackleton, starring Tom Hardy as… We prayed for Tom Hardy’s Shackleton movie and it seems to have worked… Read More
Dolittle 3 stars
It’s arrived on a wave of terrible reviews that seemed to leave the film destined for a Cats / Dolittle hold my beer meme, and after watching it with my 10 year old, I can say that it’s… fine. And quite fun. And reasonably entertaining. It’s not without problems. The pacing in the middle is… Dolittle Read More
EMMA. 4 stars
When you get to my age it feels like Emma adaptations come round more often than unexpected Jon Bernthal cameos, so I was surprised to discover it’s actually 21 years since Gwyneth Paltrow’s big screen outing as the “handsome, clever and rich” – and meddlesome – heroine. And this EMMA is a hugely enjoyable, fresh… EMMA. Read More
Bowling legend Jesus Quintana is back in UK trailer for The Big Lebowski spin-off The Jesus Rolls
Described as “a boundary-breaking sex, crime and comedy caper”, The Jesus Rolls is both a spin-off from cult favourite The Big Lebowski, and a remake of controversial 1974 French film Going Places by Bertrand Blier. John Turturro, who played bowling ace Jesus Quintana in Joel and Ethan Coen’s 1998 classic, wrote, directed and stars in The… Bowling legend Jesus Quintana is back in UK trailer for The Big Lebowski spin-off The Jesus Rolls Read More
Minions 2: The Rise of Gru trailer has the world’s greatest supervillain in training
The Rise of Gru is a sequel to Minions, but a prequel to the Despicable Me films, and is described as “the untold story of one 12-year-old’s dream to become the world’s greatest supervillain”, which could also be an accurate description of my eldest. And his little brother, who is 8, was overcome with excitement… Minions 2: The Rise of Gru trailer has the world’s greatest supervillain in training Read More
Final Oscar presenters revealed and one is a surefire hit, man
The Academy has been announcing awards presenters for this year’s Oscars over the last few days, presumably to increase excitement rather than because they’re still asking around to see if anyone’s free. And I can’t be the only person who saw one name and nearly fainted onto my (red) carpet. James Corden. Oops, I mean… Final Oscar presenters revealed and one is a surefire hit, man Read More
New teaser for Spiral: From The Book Of Saw
“Whoever did this has another motive. They’re targeting cops.” This is not, apparently, a sequel or direct reboot. Rather, the Saw world is being “re-imagined” with Spiral, as a sadistic killer, targeting the police. Is it a copycat killer? Spiral had the working title The Organ Donor, and comes from an initial story treatment from Chris… New teaser for Spiral: From The Book Of Saw Read More
Birds of Prey: And the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn 4 stars
This is an enthusiastically full-on and very loud film, with most of the action and talking happening at 100 miles an hour. Director Cathy Yan drags us on a savagely entertaining fairground ride – by the end I too felt I’d been whacked over the head by Harley and her baseball bat and then blinded… Birds of Prey: And the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn Read More

Last night’s BAFTA results: every awards ceremony needs a Rebel
The BAFTAs were awarded at the Royal Albert Hall last night, with the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge again in attendance. Once again social media was flooded with the winners’ names before the cut-down highlights even appeared on BBC1. And honestly, apart from Rebel Wilson talking about her vagina, I can’t think why they can’t… Last night’s BAFTA results: every awards ceremony needs a Rebel Read More
