Why Didn’t They Ask Evans? (TV mini series) 4 stars☆☆☆☆☆

11th May 2022 by Sarah

Childhood friends in a small Welsh village investigate the unexplained death of a man found at the bottom of a cliff. I started re-reading the novel when I heard this was coming out, because I wanted an escape from the world’s current problems, though it didn’t quite pan out like that. Agatha Christie’s 1934 whodunnit… Why Didn’t They Ask Evans? (TV mini series) Read More

Sonic The Hedgehog 2 3 stars☆☆☆☆☆

7th May 2022 by Sarah

Dr Robotnik is back, and coming for Sonic the weekend he’s home alone… “I don’t want to die like this! It’s derivative!” So says Dr Robotnik (Jim Carrey), as he and his temporary partner in crime are being chased down the stone tunnels of an ancient temple by a giant spike-covered ball, while other centuries-old… Sonic The Hedgehog 2 Read More

Pursuit Of A Jigsaw (short film) Short Film 4 stars☆☆☆☆☆

3rd May 2022 by Sarah

A terrifying social satire that delves into the current state of America, the human psyche and relationships. Ahh, marriage. The joyous melding of two lives. It sounds lovely, but judging by Sam Mizrahi-Powell’s short-but-effective horror film Pursuit Of The Jigsaw would look extremely disturbing, if we saw the physical reality. Mizrahi-Powell calls his award winning… Pursuit Of A Jigsaw (short film) Read More

Operation Mincemeat 4 stars☆☆☆☆☆

16th April 2022 by Sarah

The true story of how a small team of Brits aimed to deceive Hitler over the Allies’ plans for Sicily. There is always artistic licence in films based on true stories, though I was gratified to discover that Operation Mincemeat‘s London coroner Bentley Purchase, who sounds like an early ’00s indie band, was indeed a… Operation Mincemeat Read More

Reed’s Point 2 stars☆☆☆☆☆

14th April 2022 by Sarah

Sarah and Alex, injured in a crash a year before, head back to the same woods to look for answers. Ugly mug monsters. Humans with rock hard heads living according to the lyrics of ’90s band Chumbawamba’s hit Tubthumper: “I get knocked down, but I get up again”. Woods teeming with dodgy locals. Reed’s Point… Reed’s Point Read More

Let The Wrong One In 3.5 stars☆☆☆☆☆

7th April 2022 by Sarah

A young man tries to help his sibling who has been turned into a vampire in modern-day Dublin. Trainspotter-turned-staker Henry might not be John Wick but he did once kill three vampires in a taxi with a sharpened stick, and if that isn’t nearly a pencil I don’t know what is. He’s on a mission… Let The Wrong One In Read More

Death On The Nile 3.5 stars☆☆☆☆☆

3rd April 2022 by Sarah

Famous Belgian detective Hercule Poirot investigates a series of murders on a luxurious river trip. Kenneth Branagh’s latest stab at the Agatha Christie classics is as much about the wounds and scars of the living as about the dead (though there are plenty of bodies too). And despite — because of? — its focus on… Death On The Nile Read More

Deep Water 2.5 stars☆☆☆☆☆

20th March 2022 by Sarah

A wealthy married man becomes the chief suspect in the deaths of his wife’s lovers. I had many questions after watching Deep Water (twice!), including why don’t these wealthy people have a dishwasher. In fact why don’t any rich Americans in movies have a dishwasher. There are other, more important unanswered questions in this sometimes… Deep Water Read More

Moonfall 3 stars☆☆☆☆☆

6th February 2022 by Sarah

The Moon is out of orbit, and heading on a collision course with Earth. There is one pet in Moonfall, but it is never in real peril. Otherwise Roland Emmerich’s old-fashioned, entertainingly silly sci-fi blockbuster ticks many of the genre’s boxes: an underdog no one listens to, government conspiracies, iconic buildings washed hundreds of miles… Moonfall Read More

Silent Night 3.5 stars☆☆☆☆☆

29th December 2021 by Sarah Leave a Comment

Family and friends meet for one last Christmas, before the world ends. Coming in at a pacy hour and 30 minutes – a length many can only dream of when it comes to family Christmas dinners that feel like the end of the world — Silent Night bounces along until almost the end; beautiful, bitterly… Silent Night Read More

Last Train To Christmas 3 stars☆☆☆☆☆

20th December 2021 by Sarah Leave a Comment

Nightclub owner Tony Towers, on a train with his fiancée on Christmas Eve 1985, sees how his life might have been if he had made different decisions along the way. The synopsis of Last Train To Christmas made it sound like a mash-up of A Christmas Carol, Snowpiercer, Sliding Doors and The Hitman And Her… Last Train To Christmas Read More

A Castle For Christmas 3 stars☆☆☆☆☆

30th November 2021 by Sarah Leave a Comment

An American author finds love when she travels to Scotland to visit the childhood home of her late father. It is a truth universally acknowledged that an impecunious British aristocrat with a freezing castle must be in want of a rich American wife, even if he doesn’t know it yet. In A Castle, A Castle,… A Castle For Christmas Read More
