‘Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – Infinity Castle’ – Review
Anime doesn’t get more epic than this. Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – Infinity Castle is the kind of cinematic event that doesn’t just entertain: it completely obliterates your senses. From jaw-dropping animation to pulse-racing battles that push characters to their absolute limits, this film is a staggering spectacle and a monumental achievement in modern […]
‘Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale’ – Review
The time has come to bid Downton Abbey goodbye, and Lord Julian Fellowes takes audiences, and long time fans of the series into a new era with the 1930s and new dramas and conflicts find their way into the Crawley household, affecting both them, and their servants and the result is one of 2025’s most […]
‘Sorry, Baby’ – Review
A24 has built its reputation on daring, emotionally fearless cinema, and their latest release, Sorry, Baby, continues that legacy in unforgettable style. Marking the debut of writer-director Eve Victor — who also takes on the lead role — this film is a haunting, intimate, and deeply empathetic work that announces the arrival of a bold […]
‘Caught Stealing’ – Review
When it comes to originality in cinema, Darren Aronofsky has always played by his own rules. Scratch that; he’s smashed them to pieces and built something new every time. For more than 27 years, the auteur behind Requiem for a Dream, The Wrestler, and Black Swan has shocked, provoked, and challenged audiences. Now, with his […]
‘The Conjuring: Last Rites’ – Review
In the early 2010s, a new kind of horror arrived to shake audiences to their core. James Wan’s The Conjuring (2013) took the supernatural genre to terrifying new heights, grounding its chills in the lives of real-world paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren. With powerhouse performances from Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga, it became a […]
‘The Roses’ – Review
Lauded thespians Benedict Cumberbatch and Olivia Colman are two singular sticks of theatrical dynamite. When thrown together, they’re utterly combustible in Jay Roach’s The Roses. The resulting cinematic experience for audiences is a wickedly sharp, acid-laced dark-comedy that is absolutely fucking fabulous! Life seems easy for picture-perfect couple Ivy (Olivia Colman) and Theo (Benedict Cumberbatch): […]
‘The Toxic Avenger UNRATED’ – Review
Our beloved Toxie is back, and this time it’s pedal-to-the-metal in an all-out gonzo extravaganza of Z-grade shlock, heavy metal mayhem, and buckets of blood. The Toxic Avenger Unrated is pure Troma Entertainment unleashed on a big-budget canvas, and the result is utterly bonkers in the best way possible. This is gore-soaked, splatter-fuelled cinema that […]
‘Mr. Burton’ – Review
Is genius born out of fire and passion, or is it instead recognised, shaped and pursued until it blossoms into a force of creative brilliance? That question lies at the heart of Mr. Burton, a profoundly moving and beautifully constructed new drama from director Marc Evans. It is a film that captures both the fragility […]
‘Eddington’ – Review
Ari Aster has swapped his usual ritualized horror for full-blown societal dissection in Eddington, a black-comedy thriller that glues Western grit to modern media paranoia. Think dusty New Mexico, sheriff’s badges, mask wars, data centers, cults, conspiracy memes—and Joaquin Phoenix clutching his asthma inhaler like it’s a six-shooter. During the COVID-19 pandemic, a standoff between […]
