Usually the kids in teen comedies leave me feeling incredibly old, but Booksmart‘s Molly (Beanie Feldstein) and Amy (Kaitlyn Dever) seem even more middle-aged than me. They’re very clever, and very hard-working, and only have one day left at high school before graduation. That focus and drive means that even school Principal Brown (Jason Sudeikis)… Booksmart Read More
Toy Story 4: cast & director interviews – and watch them recording in character!

Cuddlies joined together forever (literally). Yes, I think my kids’ Christmas lists are all sorted now. Watch these interviews with the director and cast, talking about their characters and… Toy Story 4: cast & director interviews – and watch them recording in character! Read More

The Last Tree (Sundance London) 4 stars
Shola Amoo’s second feature is an accomplished and absorbing film, following the teenage Femi as he struggles to create his own identity and sense of place from disparate memories, experiences and expectations. Little confusions, which for teenagers can still loom large, are woven into far more serious choices. There’s a sweet scene when Femi, walking along… The Last Tree (Sundance London) Read More
Sssssss….. I mean shhhh! All quiet for the “Them That Follow” trailer
Snakes and God feature heavily in this trailer, so if you suffer from ophiophobia or theophobia maybe give this one a miss (but remember those terms for your next pub quiz). The trailer for this tale of god-fearing, snake-rearing folk (below) feels slow-moving but creepy, with closed doors and an increasingly scared young woman, plus… Sssssss….. I mean shhhh! All quiet for the “Them That Follow” trailer Read More
Wonder Woman 1984 – first look poster
*** My four-star review is now live *** Like an ass-kicking C-3PO stuck in a kaleidoscope, my favourite female superhero looks ready to take on anything. The new movie is out on 5 June 2020, and sees Diana Prince facing down a new enemy: The Cheetah. I ????????????❤️ this poster (particularly the dazzlingly gorgeous colour scheme), though at… Wonder Woman 1984 – first look poster Read More

Ad Astra trailers: the answers we seek are just outside our reach…
*** my review is now live (slightly spoilery) *** …and you’re going to have to wait until September for them too. Sorry. Still, these trailers are a great introduction to the much-anticipated movie. I love trailers about space that have soaring music, and movie stars with fishbowls on their heads dangling off the outside of a… Ad Astra trailers: the answers we seek are just outside our reach… Read More
Animals (Sundance London) 3.5 stars
It’s rare to find a film that combines such huge respect for the gorgeousness and grubbiness of female friendship with such dizzying disrespect for the human liver. They’re connected in this film of course, though I still feel drained just thinking about the sheer quantities of white wine consumed by best friends Laura and Tyler… Animals (Sundance London) Read More
A Vigilante 4 stars
I like this movie’s title – a vigilante, not the vigilante, which would have positioned this as just another exploitation piece. Sadie, herself a survivor of horrific abuse at the hands of her husband, is not out for acclaim but wants to sink into the grey shadows. It also suggests there are more out there,… A Vigilante Read More

Here’s the synopsis: The remarkable true story of the visionary American car designer Carroll Shelby and the fearless British-born… Le Mans ’66 has a trailer! (And a new title) Read More
