And just like that, it’s over. The interminable 2026 awards season has finally come to a close and with it, the inaner discourse can hopefully disappear from our lives. Last night’s ceremony was less dramatic than some had anticipated and ultimately churned out a worthy crop of winners. It was a great all-round ceremony too…
We’ve finally made it to Oscar night after what has felt like one of the longest awards season in recent memory. It’s also become one of the most exciting as frontrunners have failed to emerge in multiple major categories making it feel like it could truly be anyone’s game. While the length of the season…
Every now and then a film so original comes along that you can’t quite believe it got made in this day and age and it is a thrill to even see it made it to your local multiplex. Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die is one of those films: a wild, zany adventure that is…
Ah the cinema, that famously social activity where you enter a dark room and sit in complete silence for a couple of hours. People are afraid to do a lot of things alone, and the cinema seems to sit high on that list for many. It is reductive to say that there aren’t social benefits…
Sam Raimi returns to dip his toes back into a genre he knows so well with this disgustingly entertaining and original horror-comedy. Prepare to be pulled in and then compelled to look away. The film follows Linda Liddle (Rachel McAdams), an overworked and underappreciated numbers-cruncher in the corporate world who is othered and pushed around…
Finally arriving in cinemas over a year after its Sundance premiere and now with a slew of Best Actress nominations for Rose Byrne in tow, Mary Bronstein’s black comedy-drama about motherhood is a personal tale of nightmarish proportions. We are thrown into the life of Linda (Byrne), a therapist whose husband is away long-term for…
Unusually arriving before the BAFTA nominations (we’ll see how those shake out next week), the nominations for the pinnacle prize of Awards Season have finally been announced. In what has been a fairly steady and predictable season so far, there aren’t too many major snubs or surprises that haven’t been alluded to in the precursors;…
And so, the second film post-Safdie separation arrives with Josh Safdie taking a very different swing at a sports-based film. Its breathless praise has nothing on how you feel by the time the credits role. Set in the 1950s and loosely inspired by a real person, Marty Supreme is Marty Mauser (Timothée Chalamet), a man…
Song Sung Blue arrives with star power and an inspirational true story, but don’t be fooled by the feel-good marketing, this is a story that completely pulls the rug out from under you with many dark turns that would be unbelievable had they not actually happened. It will plaster a smile to your face but…
James Cameron whisks us back to Pandora for a third outing, following directly on from The Way of Water. Whilst it remains an immersive epic, Fire and Ash feels more familiar than it should. We rejoin Jake Sully (Sam Worthington), Neytiri (Zoe Saldaña) and their family as they are struggling with the grief of losing son Neteyam. Neytiri…
